Radiation fallout coordination eyed for 1959 legislature

A subcommittee hearing criticized poor coordination among the State health department, the State disaster office, the Federal Atomic Energy Commission, and local agencies on radiation testing. Proposals urged naming a governor secretary as coordinator and creating a central laboratory, with more information exchange deemed urgent. Additional hearings are planned across the state this fall.
