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

country's knowledge and mater
ial with the rest of the world
as far as was possible without en
dangering our military position.
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.

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.
