Atomic Energy to Change Way of Life, Says Speaker "Atomic energy can destroy the world, or be the greatest boon the world has ever known," said Harlan P. Bosworth Jr.', speak ing for Medford chapter, Ore gon United Nations association, Thursday night. "There is no end to the useful purposes of atomic energy," Mr. Bosworth said, and added "there is no field in which atomic energy cannot be employed to benefit mankind; its use for peaceful purposes will revolu tionize our way of life." The speaker mentioned the production of heat and power, the preservation of food, the fer tilization of soil, and various uses in the field of medicine among other purposes for which atomic energy may be employed. Mr. Bosworth, a vice-president of The California-Oregon Power company, represents his firm on a national committee to study atomic energy and its peaceful uses and has spent much time in recent years in individual study of the subject. He opened his talk by giving briefly some background infor mation on nuclear energy and said that the so-called "atomic energy" is the oldest form of energy and "will be with us always." He told how the late Albert Einstein had "revolu tionized all scientific thinking" early in his career when he ex plained the theory that mass can be converted into energy, and energy into mass. Mr. 1 Bosworth spoke of the discovery of "heavy water" and said that it is essential for the use of atomic energy. He men tioned the early work on "chain reactions" at the University of Chicago and said that the "atomic age is only HVa years old but look at the amazing discoveries in that brief period." He pointed out that atomic research was spurred by "war necessity" and said that the first research had been along the lines of weapons only. Mr. Bosworth then outlined President Eisen hower's "Atoms for Peace" plan and said that the president, real izing fully the "potential force for good" wanted, to share this C simNO mm y CAPACITY t -JA- FULLY-AUTOMATIC WASHER Yours for only FREE I RIAL L A Week Northing Down On Approves!

With the aid of charts, Mr. Bosworth stressed the point that the use of atomic energy is a necessity, since the world s pres ent supplies of carbonaceous ma terial, such as coal and oil, will last only about another 75 years at the rate they are now being expended. He said that atomic energy, on the other hand, "will last for all time." One pound of uranium can produce, through atomic processes, 2,600,000 times as much energy as a pound of coal. Atomic energy power plants are now being constructed, he said, and the first will probably be in use in about three years. Many problems must be over come, he declared, "but all are surmountable." He spoke of the supply of materials and where they are to be found and pointed out that all radio-active mater ials are owned by the govern ment and are only loaned or leased by the Atomic Energy commission to firms for peace ful uses. Because of this, and because the present price range is set for only seven years, many economic problems must be solved, the speaker said. One of the problems posed by atomic energy plants is the find ing of new materials which are resistant to the extremely high heats produced, which are non corrosive and which are very strong. Atomic power plants must be operated by remote con trol because .of the danger from radio activity, he said, which means completely new designing. Disposal of radio active wastes, the matter of insurance and fi nancing all present problems, the speaker said. Mr. Bosworth gave some de tails of a plant being constructed near Pittsburgh said it would cost $85,000,000 and would be used as much for experimentation and research in the beginning as for actual production of power. Russia claims to have one such plant already in operation, he said. American industry is Solidly behind the government in the program to further peaceful uses of atomic power he said, and large firms are spending millions of dollars in testing and research. He spoke of the new atomic power submarine, said that re search was underway on an atomic-power railroad locomo tive and airplanes but that little research so far had been along the line of atomic automobiles. Mr. Bosworth concluded by speaking of the coming confer ence in Geneva in August at, which the peaceful uses of atomic power would be discussed. More than 80 nations have been in vited to attend, and 41, including the Soviet Union and its satellite nations, have accepted, he said. Questions concerning the ef fect of atomic power on employ ment and economic conditions were asked and Mr. Bosworth said that while an atomic power plant would need about the same number of workers, they would be trained in entirely different fields than those used for present-day plants. He spoke briefly of hydrogen power, said it has three times the force of the atom and is not radio-active, but as yet scient ists have not worked out a means of control. Bruce Manley, president of the chapter, introduced Mr. Bos worth and conducted a brief busi ness meeting. The coming UN conference in San Francisco was discussed, and Mrs. Herbert C. Sampert, chapter member, plans to attend. A questionnaire designed to show the trend of individual thinking on the use of atomic and hydrogen weapons was distrib uted to the membership.

He was an instruc tor at the San Francisco studio until being inducted in the U.S. Army and returned there to work until coming to Medford.

Br CLAIRE COX New York (U.R) Women don't know beans about cooking beef, a veteran restaurant owner 1 says. In fact, they aren't as skilled as men at cooking most foods, ex cept maybe breakfast coffee, tea sandwiches, f rench fried potatoes and chicken soup, -he claimed. "It's a lucky thing for women few men ever enter baking con tests," he added. "They'd run off with the honors." The brave man who made these charges is Dan Stampler, who is happily wed to a wife who does not like to cook. He feeds about 1,000 persons a day in his Greenwich Village "steak joint." "Many women are lousy cooks because they don't want to cook too often and this is their best defense against it," he con tended. "Why wouldn't a fellow take his wife out to dinner if her cooking is no good?" Stampler said, however, he did not think women were unable or unwilling to learn perfection inJ the kitchen, so he offered a few bits of advice on beef prepara tion. in the urst place, he said, a steak should be at least two inches thick and should be at room temperature before it is broiled. This means removing it from the refrigerator four or five hours before cooking time In fact, Stampler suggested, the steak might be even better if left out overnight. A roast should be taken from the refrigerator at least 24 hours before it is popped into the oven. This reduces cooking time and shrinkage, saving on both the fuel and meat bills. "But what do most housewives do?" he asked. "They take a roast out of the refrigerator, pop it into the oven and roast it 20 minutes to the pound. A six to eight pound roast loses three pounds or 40 to 45 per cent of its weight, if it is cooked right from the refrigerator." Stampler claimed that, with his method a roast need be cooked only 10 minutes per pound, with little shrinkage. As for steak, he said, broiling on charcoal is the best cooking method. But since charcoal cooking is out for most house wives, he' suggested that the kitchen stove broiler should be heated for 20 minutes before the meat is cooked. Then a steak should be put in as close to the broiler as possible for four min utes on each side. It then should be placed in a hot oven for 20 to 25 minutes.
