Alomic Power ProSPeCI5 For Atlantic Provinces

By FORBES RHUDE - Canadian Press Business Editor MRETC( )PAN 0 L- Acimto

MONTREAL (CPi Atomic power plants probably will be first used in Canada in Ontario and the Minniic provinces, I. N. MacKay.

of the B1 I... civil- ian alomic power department of Canadian General Electric Com- pany at Petsrborough. 0nt.. laid today.

Addressing the Engineerinz ill- Ililuie of Canada Mr. MIcI(ay said the basic characteristics of atomic power plants as compared to con- vcniional fuel-fired power were the negligible fuel cost, the rel- Ilivcly high capital cost. and the great economies attainable in lrrize sizes.

For these reasons it was to be expected that atomic power would be ilsed initially where hydro. nat- ural gas or other cheap power was not readily rsV8IIHbIC.

it looked as though British Columbia. the Prairie provinces and Quebec would have cheap power available close to large cen- ires for a good many years. In Ontario, however. by about 1985 almost all the economically avail- able hydroelectric power would

have been developed.

SMALLER UNITS IN EAST

In the Atlantic provinces, power requirements called for smaller power blocks than in Ontario- smaller than the most economical atomic-on" sizes. However. due 00 high fuel costs. atomic Power could be ,. A d to compete in

" units.

It would appear. Mr. MacKay said. that use of atomic power in the Atlantic provinces would de- pend on the general rate of devel- opment. but it could also directly affect the provinces growth.

R e m o t e communities. where cost of transportation of oil or coal was high, offered an opportunity for atomic power and naval ships could be given cruising ranges far beyond anything obtainable from conventional fuels.

Mr. MacI(ay doubted. however. that power reactors could be used economically for the propulsion of naval ships much under 7.000 tons.

Mr. MacKay said he could not imagine Canada spendinx Illin- dreds of millions of dollars on I uranium enrichment plant for mil- Itary purposes and. accordingly. Canada ould probably build reac- tors to use natural uranium. In fact this seemed to be much the cheapest way of obtaining central- statlon atomic power.

defence today against

"white supremacy" there.

Blonde Marion Mill Preminger, author-lecturer-nurse who returned March 1 from her fourth annual pilgrimage to Lambarene, where she has spent hundreds of hours workirl with the famed doctor, said in an interview the charges are "very unjust to I saintly man."

Mrs. Preminger, who plans to return to Lambarene next Decem- ber for Dr. Schweitzer's ll2nd birth- day. was replying to criticism made by Dr. A. H. Behrenberg, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Metuchen. N. J ., in an ad- dress before I Kiwanis club lunch- eon meeting earlier this week in Perth Amboy. N.J.

REPORTS COLOR LINE

Dr. Behrenberg said the hospital is "filty beyond description" and ''a color line is practised there which is more severe than any- thing found in Alabama." The pastor said he had spent one week It the hospital last summer.

The hospital is built like a na- tive village to make the natives feel at home and this is very im- portant, Mrs. Prcminger said. There are no solid walls because in the 100-degree heat a person would stifle to death.

"It is I poor hospital with no water. no electricity. But it is I lighthouse to all other hospitals- as a symbol. It is the only hos- pital in the world which feeds. houses, clothes. nurses and medi- cates all its patients-and medi- cafes with I very potent medicine called human ”ndness. . . .

"I can only believe the rever- end. who is a medical layman, saw Lambarene with the eyes of prejudice or for some uncxplain- able personal grievance. The life of Dr. Schweitzer is so crystal clear. if it could be water you could drink it." The problems at L tremendous. the Vienna author said. There are hundreds

Eisenhower apparently overruled a military recommendation that the United States should hold off willie lrying to get the invitation broadened to X ' d other mem- bers of the joint chiefs of staff and a look at other Soviet forces. Ad- rninisiraiion officials have been angling for such a wider invitation but so far in vain.

It was learned that a message from ambassador Charles Bohlen in Moscow, sent here last weekend, helped to bring the discussion over the Soviet invitation to a head. The Bohltn message emphasized that the United States was con- fronted with alfirm invitation to send an air force delegation to Moscow and left little ground for belief that the Russians would be inclined to broaden the bid.

Britain has already accepted an invitation to send Nigel Birch. undersecretary for air. to the Mod- cow show.

A male nurse who has done im- portant work for Dr. Schweitzer for the last 10 years is I native.

lt's silly to say "white suprem- acy" is practised. because there just aren't that many whites around, Mrs. Preminger said.

"Dr. Schweitzer doesn't want to Change the people. He only wants to heal them. Antiseptics always are used. We always get the latest antibiotics -- everything we ever needed or wanted."

LANGUAGE DIFFICULTY Teaching the natives hygiene is difficult because in most cases the only means of communications by sign language or through an in- terprcter.

Last year the hospital received a new operating rig as I gm from Prince Rainier of Monaco. "It was a miracle to find it in the middle 05 iile illllgie." she said. "The operating room is not clean-it is sterile."

There are about 250 patient; gt the hospital and 250 lepers at the new leper village Dr. Schweitzer built this year with the 533.000 he received for winning the Nobel peace prize in 1954. The money Dr. Schweitzer received as part of a fund honoring his Slst birth- day. is used to clothe the lepers. Mrs. Preminger. former wife of Hollywood director Otto Prem- inger, said she had been inter- ested in the work of Dr. Schweitzer since a child.

It was not until 1950, after she had left Hollywood, that she met Dr. Schweitzer in France during one of his rare trips to Europe. HELPS EACH YEAR

Mrss Preminger followed him to Lamharene and since then has made a yearly pilgrimage there to work with him for three to four months. She was chosen by the International Newspaper Women's Association as "woman of the year" in 1955.

Last year Mrs. Preminger helped found the Albert Schweitzer Hospital Fund to raise money for the leper colony.

CMPPING PROGRESS The present week starting with

MondIy's'heIvy rain has been fu- from ideal so far as making pro- gross on the land is concerned. Many farmers It the end of last week had land prepared for sow- ings of grain and were all ready for I flying start on Monday morn- ing bilt the weather ruled other- wise. Much of this prepared land will require further cultivation and all this tends to slow up pro- gress Ind would -appear to indic- ate that most of this year's seed- ing and planting will take place in June. The growth of grass and clover continues to be slow. even fertilized grass is not showing up too good as soil tempterature is evidently still below the point where best use is made of fertil- ililll elements. However. with tractors and tractor equipment it is possible to prepare I great deal of Iand in a short time, in Iddit. Ion land may be worked at night in readiness for planting ope:-at. ion in daylight hours. MACHINERY INVESTMENT

In the Past few years there has been I great increase in the cap- ital invested in our farms. One of the largest items is that of mach- inery and in addition to the orig-' inal investmeut is the money re- tlulred for up-keep. repairs and parts. We are all acquainted with the type of person who contrlves to wear out I set of tires on his car in less than 10,000 miles of driving while a more careful and efficient driver will obtain from 31.000 to 30.000 miles. The first driver is I constant cllslomer of the garages and his driving costs are far higher than those of the man who understands his mach- ine and knows its limitations and requirements.

In farming it follows that farm machinery which is kept in re. pair, properly greased and oiled and stored when not in use and operated in a sane manner will give far better service and last much longer than will be the case where an implement is left out- side. forgotten for possibly ten or eleven months of the year, rarely greased and taxed beyond its cap- Icity.

In spite of the fact that nearly every piece of farm equipment has some point of weakness it is nevertheless capable of satisfact- ory service. if carefully handled, over I long period of years. Where there is I large investment in machinery lack of attention to it may very well over a period of years mean the difference be- tween financial success or failure. D.H.H.

NOT RICIIER

A recent report carried by the press to the effect that net farm income was up in 1955 can if taken literally produce an all together incorrect belief and one in var- iance with the real facts. If the Canadian farmer had sold all his grain. all his livestock, all his livestock products which he had on hand at the end of the year net income might have been up.
