The Communist arms buildup in Cuba places . the southeastern part of the United States in prime position for missle attack ,' from there. Strategic points in North Carolina, siich as state port instal lations, Camp Lejeune, Fort Bragg, Cherry Point and Seymour Johnson Air Force Base would be initial target areas. Duplin County Civil Defense director, Ralph Cottle says, "in today's troubled world, men and women must Realistically face the possibility of a , surpriseJEJbomb attack. In the catastrophe of an 'all-tfcffwar, radioactive fallout would contaminate .every portion of this country, H-bomb and missle blast patterns would devastate wide spread areas." Cottle said that survival in a nuclear attack depends mainly on people themselves and added that, "now is the time for citizens and their fami lis to inform themselves, make emergency plans, and learn to work together as a team.'! Cottle has outlined the following" instructions and precautionary measure to be taken before, during, and after a nuclear attack: BEFORE Select a Family Shelter Ah ordinary frame . house offers some protection. It, may Cut radiation danger by, one-half. Best shelter area is on the floor, away from doors and windows, or preferably . in a , location with additional walls at the center of the house, under an arch Jf, feasible. ,v jeeuyu, ,4,it may reauce xacuauon oanger o .one- 'tenth. - .' ' ' ' An underground shelter with three feet of earth will give you almost total protection if it is equipped with a door and an air filter. Stockpile Food and Supplies - Store in your shelter 'a 14-day supply of food and water plus a first aid kit, a battery radio, flashlights, and other emergency needs. Prepare a family Action Plan - Assign emer gency responsibilities. The family may be separa ted before an attack. It may be safer for you to remain at work or for children to remain at school. Plan to meet later at a pre-selected meeting place, but only when it is safe to move about. Learn First Aid - Study Red Cross First Aid and home nursing. Take official courses if pos sible. Learn Fire Fighting - Regular fire protection services may not be available in an attack. Fire prevention and fire fighting "know - how" may save your home or your life. DURING . Obey Instructions - Tune your radio to emer gency Conelrad stations 640 or 1240. Heed official instructions on Conelrad. Don't use your tele phone. - Evacuation - Evacuate only if instructed by Conelrad. Assemble emergency evacation supplies for .family automobile. Shielding - Unless directed to evacuate, seek best available shielding. Close windows and doors. Draw curtains or blinds. Turn off or disconnect all gas and electrical appliances. Assemble family in shelter : AFTER Stay Put - Remain sheltered until officially . advised it is safe. Don't rush out and expose your 1 self to radiation. Deadly radio-active fallout con ' tamination could last two weeks or longer. Put a handkerchief over your nose and mouth to help prevent entry of dust. Keep the house closed tight. Nail blankets or coverings over broken doors or 'Jwindows: y-iV. jp-.?; V;W;'' - ' - Decontaminate V Remove exposed garments. Thouroughly wash skin and hair with strong soap. Obey Instructions If necessary, move to bet- ter. shielding or travel to a safe area; but only as directed and only when safe. ; .; ' X rs '','. ', r J. ! If you are in a place where there is no pre- pared shelter; Civil Defense recommends the fol-;. lowing precautions: " . ! ,K 4 ; ' - INDOORS.r : - ,". i Go to a basement or interior first floor room. Get under strongest desk, table, counter, etc.; away from windows where things may fall on you. If ; nothing else is available lie face down along an in- terior wall away from windows. Stay put until au-; .. thorities indicate it is safe to come out. , ' , ' ':X.

A full day's activity is planned for the open house which will in clude an address by O. B. Cope land, associate executive editor, The Progressive Fanner. Mr. Copeland will talk on Careers From Earth and Atom. (Registration will begin at 8 a m. at the William Neal Reynolds Co liseum and after Mr. Copeland's address and opening exercises stu dents and guests will be taken on visits to special campus exhibits. At the exhibits they will see cur riculum offerings, career opportu nities, research in progress, and college campus life. The Finance and Building Com mittee of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Albert son, has announced plans for a $130,000 expansion program of the present building. Construction is tentavily schedul ed to start next spring on 10 addi tional classrooms and a cultural hall housing a gymnasium and aud itorium. The classroom addition will be built on the north end and back of the present structure and the cultural hall will be located on the south end of the church. According to Finance Committee man, Melvin Potter, church head quarters in Salt Lake City will pro vide 70 per cent of the cost of con struction and the church will pay 30 per cent if construction is start ed within the next four years. Aflcr that church headquarters will pro vide only 50 per cent of the total cost. Increased membership in the chu rch lias necessitated the new addi tions. The present church was fin ished in November of 1952 at which time membership was approximate ly 60. Now nearly 200 people attend the church re rularly. Bishop Oliver Wayne Scott, Mount Olive serves as the church's pastor. Trial & Error The printers told me this morn ing that we had the first frost of the season today.

Our Eastern Press Association met last week end in Ahoskie and Murfreesboro, and it was a fine meeting. The people in that part of the country believe in eating as much as the people in Duplin, and their meals were delicious. We were over at Chowan College in Mur- ' freesboro on Saturday morning to : attend the dedication of the addi- -tion to the building at the School of Printing. They have a wonderful school of Printing which should be of much interest to many boys and girls who are thinking of a career: . We have two boys from Duplin at '" Chowan this year. One boy is from Wallace and the other is Bill Rol lins of Warsaw, John MaoSweeney," who is head of the school of print- irg, was beaming' from ear to ear as he showed the press around the prinbag uitpmpy'ydoat a wonderful job and deserve! much credit. Have you been reading our Edi- : torial page lately? We have re vamped the style of our editorial page and carry a public forum now which discusses many vital items of interest to the people of Duplin County. We invite you to write to us and give us your opinions on dif ferent events. It seems that so many issues have been taking place in Duplin that it has been hard to keep up with everything that is go ing on. I heard one man remark the other day that he had rather watch activities in Duplin any time, than watch television. A certain person, whose name I refuse, to call, is showing pictures of you-know-who all over town. That's all right just wait until after this week end! I'll be able to brag too about my grandson.
