Pittsburgh Spends
Millions Toward
Science, Industry
By Don Jennings
(Unll'J r i Surf Corrmponilent)
Pittsburgh U Pittsburgh is
building itself a bigger role in In
dustry and science.
New plants are under construc
tion, millions of dollars are going
into, expansion of present facili
ties, anil the atomic energy com
mission has consigned one of its
latest projects to the district.
Plant expansion in steel, Pitts
burgh's biggest industry, is ex
pected to cost upwards of $400,
000.000. The results are expected to in
clude thousands of new jobs, pro
ductioa of a better quality steel
at lower cost, and about a 1,000,-000-ton
increase in producllor. ca
pacity in the next four years.
Many Phases
"Every phase of steel produc
tion from ore mines tnrougn iin
ishing ' mills is affected by the
Lauehlin Steel Corp., whose lm
provement expenditures for 1948
and 1949 will total in excess of
$210,000,000.
Automobile manufacturers,
moving part of their production
operation to Pittsburgh, are re
sponsible for a major portion of
the new construction.
Establishment of automobile
plants here is believed due in part
to a U.S. supreme court decision
which forced steel producers to
charge automobile makers full
freight costs from the point of
shipment.
General Motors Is building a
multi-million dollar fabricating
plant near the Irvln works of the
Carnegie-Illinois Steel Corp. The
plant will be used for the stamp
ing of automobile bodies and pro
duction is expected ta begin late
in 1949,
Others Interested
The Kelsey-Hayes Steel Co. and
the Murray Body Corp. also are
setting up shop in Pittsburgh.
Kaiser-Frazier and the Ford Mo
tor Co. were reported interested
in transferring part of their oper
ations here too.
A new venture by the atomic
energy commission will be handl
ed here by the Westinghouse Elec
tric Corp. In cooperation with the
commission's Argonne national
laboratory near Chicago.
Westinghouse, the first major
corporation to set up its own
atomic research division, will
build an "atomic boiler," capable
of propelling warships and keep
ing them at sea Indefinitely with
out refueling.
The project may revolutionize
naval transport. Scientists believe
the same power principle may
some day be applied to airplanes
and trains.
Westinghouse will build a new
plant here for construction of the
atomic boiler. Charles H. Weaver,
head of Westinghouse's atomic
division, said the Job will employ
600 specialists and may take two
to six years to complete.
Coal Men Expanding'
In another phase of atomic en
ergy, the Carnegie Institute of
Technology is building one of the
world's most powerful cyclotrons
at nearby Saxonburg, Pa.
The coal Industry, seeking new
markets for its product, is center
ing a long-range experimental
program in gastification here in
Pittsburgh.
The Pittsburgh Consolidation
Coal Co., world's biggest coal pro
ducer, recently unveiled a $500,000
pilot plant built in conjunction
with the Standard Oil Develon-
ment Co. for the development of
cheaper and more efficient ways
to make gas from coal.
The gasification experiment is
regarded as the forerunner to
establishment of a multi-million
dollar commercial plant.

Experts Believe
Reds Unprepared
Washington, March 10 iU'i--Top
American military strategists are
convinced that Russia does not
have what It takes to attack cont
inental United Slates by air or
sea, it was learned today.
In fact, a high military author
ity said, Russia is not considered
capable at the present time of car
rying out anywhere in the world
"large - scale amphibious opera
tions comparable to those of the
allies during world war II."
Consequently, U. S. military
leaders are basing their strategi
cal plans on the premise that if
Russia moves militarily, she will
do so on land. This could include
attacks or military expansion in
western Europe, Scandinavia, the
middle east and the far east.'
This estimate of Russia's mili
tary limitations has led the joint
chiefs of staff to decide against
setting up now in continental
United States a unified command
or commands like those in outside
areas.
However, Gen. Dwight D. Elsen
hower may review this decision
during his temporary duty as
chairman of the Joint, chiefs of
staff and chief military adviser to
President Truman.
President Truman has asked
congress to authorize a perma
nent head of the joint chiefs to
tighten unification and to end
backstage bickering among the
armed forces. Such a post, some
military leaders contend, would
be close to that of a commander-in-chief
of all the nation's armed
forces.
