"At
Citizens Cannot Ignore
Atomic Fields: O'Donnell
By NANCY COOVER
Start Writer
The field of atomic energy Is
something the average citizen can
not ignore.
Ashton O'Donnell, manager of
nuclear economics at Stanford Re
search Institute, pointed this out
in his speech to the Nuclear Ener
gy Institute Thursday,
The Stanford Institute has looked
at various industries and studied
the impact ot atomic power on
them. An estimated two-thirds will
be affected, he said.
O'Donnell said nuclear econom
ics gives a meaning to the ab
stract concepts of atomic energy.
It makes a study of atomic
know-how, markets and diversifi
cation. The study enables businesses and
corporations to get into the atom
ic energy business, gives informa
tion on how to do it, tells how
many other businesses are trying
to do the same thing, and illustrate
the right kind of equipment and
personnel to Use.
Through the use of nuclear eco
nomics, the effects of nuclear pow
er on industry and agriculture
have been demonstrated, he said.
O'Donnell said that industries
such as a metal mining and food
processing must observe the signifi
cance of the effect which atomic
energy will have on them.
The range of effect has been
divided into supply and utilization;
utilization is further divided into
power, heat and radiation in order
to make the effect clearer, O'Don
nell said.
The money Involved underlies the
importance attached to atomic en
ergy," 0 Donnell said. From 1955
to 1960, approximately 2-million kil
owatts of atomic power will be
installed at the rate of about $400
per installed kilowatt.
Each kilowatt will cost approx
imately $300 in the period from
1960 to 1965 and the cost will con-
o decrease, he said. Three-mil
lion kilowatts will be installed in
the 1960 to 1965 period, O'Donnell
added.
Atomic energy will also affect
agriculture, through radiation food
storage could be improved so that
food can be stored over longer per
iods of time, O'Donnell stated.
"When is atomic energy impor
tant?" O'Donnell asked. "The only
answer I can give is now."
Speaker
Clarifies
Methods
Chancellor's Conference:
Student Affairs,
Exams Discusse
Following the weekly Student
Council meetings, Chancellor Clif
ford Hardin has been holding a
Found Table discussion with var
ious groups of the Council.
Roland Hjorth, Bev Deepe, Jane
Jeffrey, Gail Katskee, Mick Neff,
Sue Simmons, Sam Van Pelt, Ber
nie Wishnow and Skip Hove met
with Hardin and Dr. A. C. Breck
enridge this week.
Different aspects of the Univer
sity were considered. Views were
voiced on making the library eas
ier to use. Sue Simmons suggested
including instruction in the use of
the library in freshman English
courses.
Chancellor Hardin pointed oat
Ems University had "One of the
best libraries anywhere, and that
few colleges have the open stacks.
Gail Katskee proposed more stu
dent participation in committies
such as the Calendar, Exams, and
Student Affairs committees.
The administration would be re
ceptive to such organization in gov
ernment, Hardin answered. Fac
ulty is usually softer on the student
in disciplinary actions that a stu
dent disciplinary board, be con
tinued.
It was asked if professors could
be encouraged to put off exams
before and right after Homecom
ing. As the University becomes a
show place during this time, it was
thought better displays could be
made if exam pressure were re
lieved. This year. Homecoming coincid
ed with 10-week exams. Arranging
a different date for Homecoming,
so that it would not coincide with
exams was discussed.
A minor problem was that none
present knew who decided the
Homecoming date.
Asked about the student-administration
relationship, Hardin said
be could see no breach in feelings
between the students and the ad
ministration. To a question on the new coach,
he said he did not know of any se-,
lection, but that the new coach
would be a man of high calibre
firstly and coaching ability after
that. He believes that is what most
people in the state want.

By BARB SHARP
Staff Writer
The method of producing uranium
235 or plutonium, the fissionable
materials used for fuel power re
actors and bombs, was explained
Thursday by Shelby Thompson,
deputy director of the Division of
Information Services of the Atomic
Energy Commission.
Thompson spoke on "The Atom
ic Enterprise of the United States"
before the Nuclear Energy Insti
tute meeting at the Union Thurs
day and Friday.
Although the mining and some
of the processing of uranium is
largely done by private concerns,
Thompson declared, the end pro
duct is solely controlled by the
government.
"After the raw material contain
ing uranium is found and dug from
the ground, it is concentrated,
since most of the ore has such a
low percentage of uranium con
tent," he said.
The ore is then purified and the
process divides into two processes.
one leading to pure uranium 235
and the other to plutonium. After
the uranium 235 has been obtained
H is changed from its gaseous state
to the form used for weapons,
and combined with other mater
ials.
Uranium 235 is found in natural
uranium to approximately seven-
tenths of one per cent.
The other branch of the process
leading to plutonium requires that
oxide be converted to a metallic
uranium and sent to plants where
part of it is converted into plu
tonium, he said.
The plutonium then has to be
separated from the uranium metal
and reudced to a form for weapon
parts, explained Thompson. Final
ly, the weapons have to be tested.
One of the major testing labora
tories for weapons is the Nevada
proving ground. The major peace
time applications of atomic power
aie for beating and for the propul
sion of naval craft," he said. "Al
though atomic heating for industrial
plants can be used, heating for or
dinary purposes is not as economic
al as conventional fuels," Thomp
son said.
There is a new departure from
the old security program concern
ing atomic energy, be said. Access
to classified information for per
sons not directly working for the
government is possible under the
revised system; persons working
for the peacetime application of
classified or so-called secret" in
formation, provided they come
through prior investigation, be said,
ties throughout the country, be
said.
The main program of classified
research is carried on in the
government laboratoies at Oak
Ridge, Tenn., Thompson said.
Many laboratories are being es
tablished at colleges and universi
ties throughout the country, be said
He cited the example of the lab
at Iowa State College and of the
radiation laboratory at the Univer
sity of California. "They all have
buildings and costs paid for by the
Atomic Energy Commission,
Thompson said.
Thompson said that be did not
intend to say that the government
is neglecting its security program
around atomic energy. He pointed
out that it must not be taken for
granted that the enemy has as
much knowledge about nuclear en
ergy as we do and therefore se
curity measures are not important.
At the same time, however, be
said the government is anxious to
have interested persons have as
much information abort atomic
energy as is possible under an ade
quate security program.
Atomic energy for peacetime pur
poses will be used mainly by phy
sicians, researchers and manu
facturers, be said. He added that
time and events are bringing about
changes which will affect the stat
us of the country's atomic program.
