WASHINGTON im The Atomic
Energy Commtsslon Thursday or
Oered construction of second
tomlc-powered submarine- engine,
It ald Ulta one wll be ol de
sign which may be easier to build
and operate than the one aireaay
nder construction.
" An AEO announcement said the
Oeneral Electric Company nai
been authorized to start construe-
tion at Its West Milton, N. Y.,
laboratory of test engine' which
"will be used for final development
fvork leading to construction of an
intermediate energy reactor for
nroDulsion of a submarine."
The Westlnghouse Electrlo Cor
poration already is worung on a
thermal reactor at Its testing sta
tion In Idaho.
DECISION 1 ' ''-
When the two engines are com
pleted, the AEO and Navy will de
cide 1 which- Is better for subma
rines. I Development of a nuclear engine
for submarines is nign on me al
military priority list.
With such n enslne. a subma
rine theoretcally would have much
Sreater speed than with conven
onal engines and could cruise sub
merged lor urousanas 01 nines.
While little information has been
flisclosed about design., the key
words in Thursday's announcement
are "intermediate energy reactor"
and "thermal reactor."
The design Westlnghouse is work
ing on Is "thermal, ' and the one
Jjeneral Electric will work on will
be the "Intermediate" types.
The difference Is In the speed of
neutrons released to produce,
through fission, heat or production
pf power.
: The intermediate reactor has
fairly fast release of neutrons.

tines are being- built, the AEC and
