National Plan for Civil Defense and Defense Mobilization (1958) :

Replaced the National Plan for Civil Defense and was promulgated by President Eisenhower in October 1958. "The National Plan established nonmilitary courses of action to deter aggression, and in the event of aggression, to enable the Nation to survive, recover, and win. It defined the role required of the Federal Government, the States and their political subdivisions, and of families and individuals to attain this objective.... The 40 elements of the National Plan are being implemented by developing appropriate operational annexes providing for its detailed application by governments, families, and individuals. Some annexes have been completed and are in effect, e.g., Planning Basis, Individual Actin, Organization for Civil Defense Mobilization, National Shelter Plan, Role of the Military, Preparations for Continuity of Government, and Disaster Services. The remaining annexes are in the final stages of development". (OCDM, Annual Report 1959, 3). "The National Plan states that the Federal Government will continuously assess the ability of the national economy to meet all mobilization and civil defense requirements, aned will develop programs for the emergency control of the economy". (Ibid, p. 35) "The National Plan for Civil Defense and Defense Mobilization - With its supporting annexes, the National Plan has guided the coordinated planning by governments at all levels, industry, families and individuals. Each State, 240 metropolitan areas within the States, and approximately 50 percent of the counties have plans supporting it". (OCDM, Annual Report 1960, 1)
