ANCHORAGE MAYOR
DESCRIBES PLANS
FOR CIVIL DEFENSE
How the largest city In Alaska is
being organized for Civil Defense
was described this noon for members
end guests of the Juneau Rotary
Club, at the weekly luncheon meet
ing in the Baranof Gold Room. ;
The peaker was the person who
carries the responsibility for the
city's preparedness—Mayor Zach
ary Joshua Loussac. of Anchorage.
Mayor Loussac stressed the fact
that a Anchorage is only three mil
es from Fort Richardson and Elm
endorf Air Force Base, it is part of
an important potential military tar
get. While the military would give
help, if possible, in case of attack,
the city is being organized to care
for its own.
Among the points Mayor Loussac
stressed are:
1. The maximum warning of an
attack is thought to be 20 minutes.
2. The greatest danger probably
would be that of general confusion,
so the City Manager and other De
fense leaders want each person to
know what he is to do.
3 In case of a bombing, those
without specific Civil Defense re
sponsibilities should stay home,
ready to fight fires and protect their
own neighborhoods. Gatherings in
crowds w’ould be far more danger
ous.
4 Anchorage City engineering,
police, fire and other departments
are organized for an attack. A blood
bank has been established. Doctors
and Red Cross are cooperating. Am
bulances are ready.
5. A series of "tryouts" signalled
by sirens from Anchorage and Fort
Richardson is scheduled so that ev
eryone will know' what to do should
a real alert be sounded.
"Our attitude Is not placid.” said
Loussac, “but it is, and should be,
matter of course. People outside are
much more hysterical about our
vulnerability than we are.
Loussac, who had a drugstore in
Juneau for three years before mov
ing to the westward, is in town
for meetings of the Alaska Housing
Authority of which he is a mem
ber.
He is a past president of the An
chorage Rotary Club.
Gerald Taylor thanked the Ro
tary Club for sending him to the
Soap Box Derby at Akron, Ohio,
where he represented Juneau under
the sponsorship of The Daily Alaska
Empire.
Twelve-year-old Jerry said, Ev
erything was swell, except losing.
The place was swell, the people were
swell to us—so were those major
etts." The Rotary Club annually
runs the local derby.
Rotarian Milt J. Daniel, who ac
companied Jerry East, spoke briefly
and promised to show pictures ot the
Derby when they are ready. These
will include photo-finish shots of
Jerry's heat, in which he lost by
a matter of inches.
Other guests introduced were Jim
Hammond of Lincoln, Neb.; A1 Wey
mouth of Hollywood, Calif., and Arl
Christiansen of Glendale, Calif., all
Rotarians; also Hammond's son-in
law, Will Reedy, Juneau, and Ross
Madden, Los Angeles feature photo
grapher.
Lloyd Coe was program chairman.
