The organization and planning stages are well advanced under a very active director of civil defense. The Brussels Treaty Organization has a civil defense committee built into the structure of its permanent commission. This subcommittee is very active. and meets regularly in one or another of the member countries to discuss questions of mutual interest. such as support across national boundaries for stricken communities. a common warning and alert system. standardization of fire fighting equipment. and handling of refugees. No. the United States is not the only country in which people think there is a need for civil defense. On the contrary. our European friends and allies are taking civil defense much more seriously than we are.
