designed to operate with nuclear

Dean asserted In his prepared
speech that "this submarine is
going to work.
Ann wnen it aoes work it is
going to be the forerunner of a
new era. not only in naval warfare,
but in the history of mankind," be
added.
He emphasized that this is the
first practical utilization of atomic
power in such manner and he said
the implications ior aeiense ana

Truman, taking somewhat the

"That engine on dry land is

it the most thorough tests. And,
believe It or not, when they are
through working with that model
it will be perfectly possible to hitch
it up to turn out electricity like any
other dry land power plant."
Truman said widespread use of
atomic power is still years ahead
but with this vessel, "we are mak
ing a giant stride ahead."
. He said the United States has
no love lor war and that he hopes
and prays with all his heart that
the day will never come again
"when we have to use the atomic

"I pray that this ship, first
