Approach But since theat. with Demo- orrrf?s taining control of Con- o gress as result of theef"Ction. q the administration has decided to liberalize itso approach by of- Jerinj greater financial induce ment to private firms to build new power planls. The amount is sjill a secret, but speculation is thm i will be well over the S59 millioa level in this year's budget for power-reactors. AEC plan to send out a new invitation to private companies in JanSary just about the time Congress convenes and the re sponse t that invitation from Private industry may well de termine whether the job will be done ryivately or not. The price tag on the bill in C?ngrcss last summer was S400 million. The administration is opiised ideologically, as well as budget-wise, to this approach. If it .can get private industry to move more rapidly into atomic development, it hopes to get n ee d e d experimental reactors buiTt for less cost to the govern ment. One factor that caused diffi culty is the feeling among pri vate firm? that their risks should be insured by the government, inasmuch as many of the vari ous types of reactors have never been built on a large scale and any unexpected defects might cause substantial hazards to workers and property involved. Private insurance isn't adequate, they have claimed. Congress has been asked to provide a government insurance scheme to ease this burden, but this bill failed to pass last ses sion. The administration is wor ried that Democrats may try to fashion a bargain package in cluding the insurance proposal along with a program of federal atomic power plants. This would have the effect of stimulating private interest on the one hand and cooling it off on the other. Plant for IE Plants That is. private firms report edly have been reluctant to jump into the atomic field at this early stage if there is some chance the government itself, under directions from Congress, might start building power re actors.

New Delhi Prime Minister Jawaharial Nehru on a change he noticed in the attitude of Communist Chinese Premier Chou En-lai: "I suppose the Chinese have settled down and are more con fident." , power plants with an estimated cost of $425 million. They would generate over a million kilo watts. If constructed, they would be completed at different times starting in 1959 and running through 1962. Of these, 10 require govern ment assistance and six are all private. The share being shoul dered by the government runs to a combined cost of about $70 million. The whole idea behind the program, whether undertaken by private or federal agencies, is to build atomic power plants in quest for a method of generat ing cheap electricity. The hope is to find a method that will make atomic power not only feasible but advantageous over use of other fuels, such as coal and oil. if not hydroelectricity, which is still cheapest of all and will probably remain so.
