asked to appoint a civil de-
fense coordinator. Mr. Brad-
ford was selected to fill this
post. He said that he formed
an organization and set up a
plan that is still in existence.
That is, a basic communica-
tions plan which develops chan-
nels of communications in time
of enemy attack or weather
disaster. He said the next step
is to set up a basic defense
and disaster organization
which will outline various
areas of responsibility in time
of emergency. Mr. Bradford
believes that such a plan is a
practical solution and he has
hopes that it can be establish-
ed in the near future.
Miss Mary Ruth Payne, club
president, presided at the
meeting.
The invocation was spoken
by Mrs. Cody Greer.
Mrs. Laura Katherine Miller
was program chairman and she
presented two lovely and tal-
ented young women in musical
numbers. Miss Carolyn Payne
and Miss Bertha Tapley sang
two numbers “Blue Moon” and
“Sentimental Journey.” They
were accompanied by Mrs.
Corner Wilson.
Mrs. Euart Hamilton was
voted into the club as a new
member. The next meeting
will be May 12 for installation
of officers.

Mr. Bradford went on to
say, “Nationally, we have come
to a realiza’ion of this prob-
lem and this danger and work-
able plans are being formulat-
ed." He added: “Perhaps, the
fact that I am in the commu-
nications business makes me
prejudiced but I believe the
matter of communication is
the most important of all phas-
es of civil defense. Actually,
no national effort can be suc-
cessful unless information is
made available.”
Mr. Bradford pointed to the
elaborate Conelrad test con-
ducted a few weeks ago as one
of the basic and important
steps. He defined it as a sys-
tem of communications devised
for use under critical condi-
tions.
In describing the civil de-
fense set up in the United
States, Mr. Bradford said there
is a plan for vital governmen-
tal functions on a national lev-
| el. There is an alerting plan
(whereby the air command,
{through its radar networks is
{capable of. alerting all or part
(of the nation to the possibility
{of enemy attacks. This is done
through the Conelrad system
which sounds the alarm over
radio and then puts those ra-
dio facilities to work under a
special plan.

of the Pacific. Their first stop
was Galapago Island and Nika
Hiva. From there to Pago
Fago, Suva and Fijii Islands
and New Zealand, Australia,
New G u i n a, Indonesia and
Singapore.
At tlds point the party of
23 from the Kungholm took a
chartered plane to tour all of
India. Their first stop was
Bombay and New Delhi and
Japur Agra, the home of the
Taj Mahal, also Banaras,
where they saw the famous
Gangese River with all its pil-
grims visiting the Holy City
and river to bath and drink
its water.
Their next stop was Pat&ma,
flying over and around the
Himalayas and on to Calcut-
ta. After a sojourn at this
point they proceeded to Ran-
g o o n, Burma, enroute to
Bangkok, the city of beautiful
temples, then on to Hong
beyond sixty five. Now is the
time to make a will if you
haven’t already done so. Y’ou
should also check on your pen-
sion and sign any necessary pa-
pers.”
Mrs. Rawlings said sixty-one
is the recommended age to visit
states that are desirable for re-
tirement. She pointed out that
some states are especially suit-
able such as Florida, Missis-
sippi, Alabama, North Caro-
lina, California and Arizona.
. ,,‘JiatjfcfciKft, in JC0.0A..**e to,
check on your life insurance to
see if you want to convert some
of it into an annuity."
‘‘About this age is a good
time to start making younger
friends so one will have friends
as the older ones drop, off.”
At sixty-t h r e e one should
have his mind made up about
retiring at home or moving to
a more favorable spot, she said.
Cars, clothes and furniture
should be bought and paid for
before sixty-five, she said.
“These should be of such good
quality as to last as long as
you do.”
Mrs. Rawlings suggested nu-
merous jobs for a person who
must still work when they reach
retirement age. She summed up
her very informative lecture by
suggesting that these important
decisions should be made over
a long period of time. “Decide
what you want to do and then
do it. Then you will find that
the Golden Years are truly
golden.”
