Abstract
- The article focuses on informing the American people about the possibility of atomic attacks. It should be the President's and not the fifth-rank official's responsibility to tell the people of the possible eventualities of a Russian atomic attack. The only solid endeavor under President Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration addressing atomic attacks is, Project East River. Fear among the American citizens should be eliminated in order for each and everyone to perform their task in civil defense. Instead of protecting their cities, the people should be advised to evacuate and live out in the open to prevent casualties. By doing this, Russian atomic bombs can destroy the cities but not the people.
