The public is Invited to Inspect conveyor-linked processing facil ities which produce lumber, con tainer board, and power for a kraft pulp mill and sawmill. It js Weyerhaeuser's and Oregon's first large-scale wood using plant Bite to be engineered for full in tegration from the beginning of operation. On the 460 acre site logs rom Industrial and farm forests and by-products from sawmilllng op erations will all find an economic outlet Facilities for maximum wood recovery include a 250, 000 board foot capacity sawmill, 150 ton Kraft pulp mill and con tainer board plant, and a power plant supplying electricity for all mill operations. The familiar dome-shaped waste burner is banished from the waste-free site because saw milling by-products are either "bonus" wood for the pulp mill or fuel for the power plant. The pulp mill also provides a market or sound "waste" wood, such as mill trimmings, from other saw mills in the Eugene-Springfield area. The Springfild installation is hailed by northwestern indus trial leaders as a forward step in creating more payroll dollars from less raw wood input and as an economic solution to better forest, management of timber lands. In aerial view group of con crete buildings surrounding tall stack at left are Kraft pulp mill, Oregon's second such plant, which will utilize principally Douglas fir.

AEC To Build Fourth Atomic Energy Plant OAK RIDGE. Tenn. (IP) The fourth In a series of atomic production units will he built here at a cost of about $162, 000,000. Plans for the plant were dis closed in an atomic enerev commission announcement. It said the Maxon Construction company, Inc., of Dayton, O., has been approved as construction contractor and Giffels & Vallet, Inc., of Detroit as architect-engineer for the project. The two firms already are building a $66,000,000 plant known as K-29. It is the third in a se ries of gaseous diffusion units for production of uranium-235 in the Oak Kldge area. The Carbide and Carbon Chem icals Corp., operator of the pres ent gaseous diffusion units, K-25 and K-27, is responsible, the AEC said, for process development and design for the newer units and lor procurement of special production equipment and mate rials. .

At that time, a $300,000,000 atomic expansion program was announced, and $50,000,000 of the sum was set aside for the Tennes see Vailey Authority., The AEC said TV A would sup ply the additional power needed for K-31. Preliminary construction work is expected to begin within a week on the new unit, which will be in the same general area as the other gaseous diffusion plants. Both new units will contribute to increased production -of uranium-235, the commission said. U-235 is a fissionable element of atomic bombs. X-Ray Microscope Can 'Look' Inside Steel, Candy Bar PHILADELPHIA UP) Gen eral Electric company has dis closed production of an X-ray microscope that can show the in side of things through which light carmot pass. In Qthr wnrH- Yt can look a bar of steel or a bar of candy. The new Instrument was shown for the first time at a meeting of the American Society for X ray and Electron Diffraction. Charlyi M. Lucht of the G-E research laboratory told the group the X-ray microscope is still in the laboratory stage of de velopment. But Miss Lucht pointed out It "may result In much sharper im ages and higher magnifications than are possible using visible light. "The instrument may compete with electron microscopes in the future." Right now, electron micro scopes are the most powerful magnifying instruments in use. These use a beam of electrons rather than light to form an im age of materials under study. Miss Lucht said the X-ray mi croscope does not need to be used in a vacuum like the electron mi croscope. "Because of this advantage," she said, "it may be possible to examine living materials at much higher magnifications than 7ver before." She reported that "clear, sharp X-ray images, magnified 10 times have been produced in the lab oratory, and these images have been magnified 10 times further by photographic enlargement without serious loss of detail. So far the X-ray microscope has been used only to study the in sides of fine mesh screens. And Miss Lucht says the instrument's ability to revtal tiny details has been excellent. The microscope operates on the principle that X-rays can be re flected from polished surfaces, as can visible light, provided that the rays strike the surfaces at very small angles. The instrument consists of an X-ray tube and a pair of curved mirrors. The X-rays strike the mirrors at an angle of less than one-half degree.

Not Candidate For Presid6ntByrnes GREENVILLE, S. C. (IP) James F. Byrnes says he is not a candidate for president of the United States. The former secretary of state made that statement yesterday in an inter view. Byrnes, who said recently, he was considering becoming a can didate for Governor of South Car olina next year, abruptly ended speculation which gained mo mentum at the Southern Gover nors' conference two weeks ago. Gov. Kerr Scott of North Caro lina, returning from the gover nors' conference at Biloxi, Miss., was quoted as saying there was much speculation that Byrnes might be proposed by states' rights democrats as the Demo cratic party's presidential candi date in 1952. If that failed, Scott was fur- Santa Claus Bombarded I By Snowballs In Parade j FITCHBURG, Mass.
