Newsmelr See Hitherto Secret Research Station

KAEIWELL. Berkshire. Erlg.. June 22--(Reuters)-British scient- ists and engineers working at the atomic research station here cm- erged today from their normal curtain of secrecy to tell how they expect. to harness atom power to industry before 1900.

Their research may mean-once difficulties have been overcome- that in less than to years the first atom liner, streamlined and with- out a funnel. wul set out on her maiden voyage.

Nearly 1000 correspondents, af- ter a rigid security check, were taken behind I-larwell's barbed wire on a conducted tour.

one end of "bepo"-the experi- mental pile which generates st- omic energy-was curtalned off so that inquisitive eyes could not see something that is still secret-the arrangement of the uranium sods which pass through the huge mauve-colored block.

The Soviet news agency, Tass. and observers from the Eastern European countries were not rep- resented. but a reporter from Brit- ain's Communist Daily worker was there.

Sir John Cockeroft. director of the station, told the correspond- ents that most of the building pro- gram at Harwell now has been completed, most of the experiment- al plant installed, and technical staffs recruited.

But because of the shortage of technical men, it is difficult. to find replace "cuts.

Major part. of the plant's ef- fort thus far has been to provide information for the production of plutonium.

One achievement has been the discovery of a new method of pro- ducing uranium metal which is more economical than methods previously used.

His opinion was that the atom can not be harnessed to industry until another eight years or so.

First it would take a year or two to make feasibility and cost- lng studies. Then, if the Govern- ment decided to provide the mon- ey to build a reactor. actual coil- struction would take possibly three years.

After that, another three would he needed for testing.

Bloodhound Leads Hunt For Bandit In Ontario

LANGTON. Ont.. June 22-(CP) --Search for the stcn-gun slayer of two men ccntrcd tonight in the Guysboro area six miles east of this village where he held up and Bggbed the Imperial Bank of S23.-

Terrcr-rirlcken residents of this South Western Ontario tobacco district watched and hunted for the cold-blooded slayer who yes- terday pumped 27 bullets into an automobile, killing Art Ltcrmnn. .'l1-year-old insurance agent. and William Ooddyn. 24-year-old oper- ator of Lierman's tobacco farm.

Late today police rushed to the farm of Alex Mackenzie who re- ported seeing a man entering scrub bushland.

They took a bloodhound with them and it immediately picked up a scent from the tracks of the man and headed into the bush.

100 Police In Search,

Up to 100 police. reinforced by farmers and residents of this area a few miles off the Lake Erie shore. have been hunting for the gunman who fled into the woods,

T leaving most of his loot behind in the stolen getaway car which crashed into a ditch while being chased by the two men.

There were unconfirmed reports that the killer still had 38.000 with

im.

While the search was intensi- fied in the Guyshora district. po- lice in Toronto were hunting for an Oklahoma motorist sold to have picked up a hitch-hiker west of the city. A slrvlce station at-

tendant said the hitch-hiker re- sembled the description of the killer.

De!-Srrt. Oliver Borland of Tor- onto pollce. a leading fingerprint expert. checked the abandoned getaway car.

It is believed the man may have been involved In other bank f'Dl)- beries. Police said he spoke in the bsnk "like an old hand at the game."

The fact that the car used by the bandit had been stolen in Windsor sussesied to police that he might have formerly operated in that South Western Ontario city or Detroit across the river.

considerably larger than these other two factors combined.

In 1040. consumer spending amounted to Ol0mt.000.000 com- psrsd with export demand for goods and services of about 04.000.000.000 and domestic investment in plant. equipment and housing totalling about sa.soo.ooopoo.

"To mention the enormous in- crease in Canadian consumer spsnd. lag from an Innusl rate of less than 04.000.000.000 in ion to near- ly 311.000.000.000 at the present time is merely to Olloit the re- aponss that both population and living costs have risen in the in- tsrvsninq period.

F. P. Varcoe, Deputy Minister of Justice. renewed arguments forihe Government against the Supreme Court judgment that sale of mar- garine is a matter of Provincial jurisdiction. The appellants are the Canadian Federation of Agri- culture and the Dairy Farmers of Canada which the Government supports in this argument.

After hearing Varcce's argument.

the judicial committee of the Council adjourned hearings until Monday.

Main iyue in dispute is section 5A of Canada's Dairy Industry Act which stipulates that "No person shall manufacture. import into

OTTAWA, June 22-(C13)-'l'rade Minister Howe today signed up one of the country's top arma- ment experts to help mobilize Canada's industrial potential and prepare it for action ”it trouble comes."

In what appeared to he a twin defence move, the Government al- so disclosed that its Chalk River atomic scientists and the Defence Department's Research Board are "working closely" to map plans for atomic defence of Canada.

The man "drafted" in a "con- sultative basis" to deal with m-; duscrial mobilization problems isl Maj.-Gen. G. B. Howard. 55-yearj old Toronto-born veteran. He sup- ervised the inspection of the vast armaments flow bc-tween Canadat and the United Kingdom durlngl the Second World War. p

Initial Dutlcs i

General managencf-the Cana- dian lndustrisl Preparedness As- sociation, Gen. Howard's initial

duties will be to determine what' defence materials Canadais in-1' dustrial plants can produce ancif how long it will take them to geari up for production in the event of; a national emergency.

"Then when trouble was in sight." . said Mr. Howe, "contact negotiai-A ions could be begun with those firms on an agreed item and on uni agreed rate of production".

Present planning, so far as in- dustry was concerned, would bet conducted on a purely voluntary basis. said Mr. I-iowe.

"We want to match up what we. know with what industry knows. It. is hard to say how many riecls-1 ictls we may be able to lnaltc. We will try, with industry's help. to make as many as We can as soon as we can."

Two Recent. Developments

Two recent developments on the international horizon prompted- the Government. to launch the in- dustrisl planning program and to; organize the Canadian commercial, corporation - the Ctovernnlentlsl

E OUT FOR CHIGNECTO CANAL PROJECT

lG0vernment Will Await

55- JOHN LeBLANC , Canadian Press Staff Writer A OTTAWA. June 22-(CF)-A 'Iuiid the Chignecic Canal” del- egation from the Marltimes was told today by Prime Minister St. Laurent the Government will a- wait thc report of the Royal Conr- lnissinn on Transportation before deciding on the project to link the Gulf of St. Lawrence and Bay of Fundy.

He advised the G0-man group to place its case before the Commis- sion-rven though hearings have now been cnmplcicd-and at the same llllle promised careful con- sideration of the undertaking which he said would cost around sl00.000,tl00.

Mr. St. Laurent also told the tri-Province delegation that the proposed deep-water canal would have to be considered in relation to its effect on a suggested tidal- powcr project in the same area of the Bay of Fundy. on marshland reclamation in the district and with respect to Dominion-Provtm cial jurisdictions.

It would have to be examined. too. in the light of its effect on the size of the tax dollar, which the Prime Minister said now was just about as big as it could be. i

However, he expressed agree- meat with a statement by the del- egation that transportation facili- ties contribute to national unity. and said the canal scheme would be studied in the light of the fact that Canada has not by any means reacllcd its full development.

Urges Early Start

The Prime Minister and 11 of his cabinet met. with the delegation for more than an hour. The Mari- time brief urged an early start on the canal, on the main grounds that it was a Confederation prom- .jse,,t.11ai it... would restore prosper- ity to the Maritimes and that If. would benefit Canadian transport- ation generally.
