are the compression of groups of bronchial

ptoms are circular muscle constriction,

of detoxification |)R. ROY HICKS

less than the optimum protection
Factor 40. Therefore the body
voted:
1. All school children shall
be allocated to fallout shelters
on the same basis as the rest
of the adult population (based on
location of domicile).
2. In time of National emer
gency, where the possibility of
Nuclear attack upon the U. S.
is considered likely, all schools
and other places of general public
gathering or assembly shall be
closed.
3, In the event of unforeseen
Nuclear disaster and the arrival
of fallout upon any public sc
hool Is Imminent (within the ma
ximum one hour warning time
established for this plan) school
children will be handled In plans
which will be explained to you
later in the program.

sent at this meeting and he has
