SPRINGFIELD (Special)
Open house will be Held at Wey
erhaeuser Timber Company's
new Integrated manufacturing
center at Springfield during the
Week of December 5-9, inclusive.
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

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

ed August 26.. Formal approval
of K-31, the fourth gaseous diffu
sion unit, was announced Oct. 25.
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. The mirrors bend

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

olina next year, abruptly ended
speculation which gained mo
mentum at the Southern Gover

Gov. Kerr Scott of North Caro
lina, returning from the gover

was quoted as saying there was
much speculation that Byrnes
might be proposed by states'
rights democrats as the Demo

date in 1952.
If that failed, Scott was fur-
