Set Emergency
Sanitation Needs
Emergency sanitation precautions
were announced today by Dr. W.
Prothro. M. D.. Grand RapidsKent County Health Departrpent
and Medical Director. Civil Defense, to be used in the event of
a disaster or nuclear attack.
Dr. Prothro stated that the first
consideration in the event normal
services a r e Interrupted is to provide emergency sources of drinking water and emergency sewage
ttrtposa}. An individual can survive for some time without food,
if necessary, but he must have
safe w a t e r to drink. To insure a
safe supply for emergency use. he
recommends that each family survey their own situation and make
a plan for the storage of a quantity of water. Other liquids such
as milk, soft drinks, fruit drinks,
etc. a r e also satisfactory in providing the necessary liquids when
needd.
The simplest storage facilities
a r e glass or plastic bottles with
tight fitting covers provided they
have been washed clean and rinsed
thoroughly. When water must be
used, the purity of which is unknown. it m a y be purified by boiling for five minutes or it may bo
purified by the use of chemicals.
The simplest procedure Is to use
any household bleach solution at
the rat e of one drop per quart or
one-fourth teaspoon per five gallons. If the water to be used is
cloudy, these quantities can be
doubled.
The second most important precaution to be taken is the emergency disposal of sewage when t h e
regular sewage system has failed.
A covered pail can serve co ivenlently for a toilet. A ten gallon
g a r b a g e pail with a tight fitting
cover can provide for emergency
storage. A shovel should be available so that the sewage may be
burled under two feet of ground.
Any emergency burying of sewage
should be done at least fifty feet
f r o m any well water supply.
An emergency supply of food
should be provided in every home
sufficient to c a r r y the family for
several days if necessary. This can
best be accomplished by Increasing the current food stock, particularly among the foods that a r e
packaged in metal or glass containers and which can be kept for
a reasonable period without spoiling. Additional foods in the refrigerator and freezer can also be
considered as emergency supplies.
All foods should be rotated and
used over a reasonable period of
time r a t h e r than purchase an
emergency stock and storing it Indefinitely.
Each family should also provide
for thenihelves in a convenient location a supply of paper goods
such as towels, napkins, toilet
tissue, old newspapers, etc. for
sanitary uses and first aid medical
kits. Unsanitary conditions can disable a person or family in a disaster.
Drink only water that you know
Is safe. Give adequate attention to
safe disposal of human waste. Eat
only food that you are sure Is
s a f e and not contaminated. Do not
put yourself out of action or availability through carelessness in protecting your family from sanitation hazards In the event of an
attack.
The Lowell City council was asked on Monday evening if they
would be Interested In having the
Lowell Development Co. construct

g a r a g e on a lease basis or a lease

PROTECTION QUESTION BOX
Question: How do you determine what
policies are the most important to have?
Answer: We recommend, first of all, insurance against the large "catastrophic" type
losses that could bankrupt you if they occurred. After that comes protection against
the smaller type losses which, even though
they a r e m o r e a p t t o o c c u r , a r c n o t
"catastrophic".
