Take Cover C D Policy in Baltimore on H bomb evacuees
Baltimore authorities confront two key questions after new H bomb data from the Atomic Energy Commission. The main issue is protecting evacuees from radioactive fallout and how to deploy radiological monitoring quickly across counties, with some areas varying in safety based on wind and weather. State Civil Defense director Sherles Ewing warns evacuation plans must broaden beyond moving people to fields and rely on more equipment and rapid area qualification. Baltimore City Defense Director Frank Milan says the office is designing an evacuation plan for the end but it would require further steps.
