Blakealeel KANSAS CITY, (AP) The atomic age is rather a lucky riuke —man was almost prevented by nature from ever having enough potent uranium to make A-bombs. or use’ atoms for tomorrow's pow- er plants. These are atoms of Uranium- 235, the radio-active uranium atoms which split in a chain re- action to yield heat and power. This U-735 is the basis of the whole atomic age. It makes up only a fraction of one per cent of ordin- ary, non-splitting uranium. ‘Being radioactive, the 11-235 starts to break down and blow apart and disappear. But it has a half-life of 700,000,000 years, In, that time, half of all the original U-Z736 disappears. In another 700,000,000 ycars_ half oi’ what was left is gone. That means that there now exists — anywhere in the universe ——only about 1-50th of all the [I-235 created when the universe was created. Scientists figure the universe and all the elements were born 4,000,000,000 to 5,000,000,000 years ago. Hall‘-Lilo Unusual If U-235 had a half-life of only 400,000,000 years, there wouldn't be enough of it available to use for chain reactions to make bombs or produce power. There would be only l-3,000ths of the original amount made on creation day. The fluke is that {I-235 is ra- ther unusual in having such a long half-life, Dr. I. Pcrlman, professor of chemistry at the University oi’ California, explains. Dr. Perlman is attending the A- merican Chemical Society's an- nual meeting. In comparison with other heavy elements, U-2.35 would be expected to have a shorter hall-life. But it is said to be "hindered" in its dc- cay or breakdown. Crilicsmh“ On New Play By I. B. Priestly LONDON. (Rcul.ers)—J.B. Priest- ley, under fire here for months as ii literary giant “turned sour", Thursday ivatched the critics tear to pieces his new play "The White Countess." - Only one critic at Wednesday night's London opening had aklnd word for the play—a complex es» say on the three loves of an Aus- trian countess, set in 1809. Priestly, 59, heard derisive laughter in the audience. The play flopped at its world premiere in Dublin last month. Two new actors and a new di- rector were brought in and some parts re-written alter a three- week up-country tryout. But it still failed to please the critics, and the management has adopted a wait—and-see policy’ before think- ing about closing it. Priestley, who wrote the play in collaboration with his third wife, Jacquetta I-laivkes, drew some con- solation from the fact. that other of his plays have been roughly handled and survived to make money. I flaims It's Good ] J "We feel we have a good play," patient in the P.E.I., Hospital. Mr. Bill Crockett of Orwell Cove, was a recent visitor to York. Miss Cami Hardy, spent March 29, in the City.

(CF) Patients in mental hospitals and psychiatric units in Canada now outnumber all other patients by more than 10 per said Lord Vivian, the play's back- er, after several hours with Priest- ley. "We disagree with the critics." He sail the Yorkshire playwright considered it “one of his best". Swedish actrm Viveca Lindfors plays the title role. The play is “unbelievably had." said The Daily sketch. The paper said it was "the most disastrous tlrst night he (Priestley! can ever have known." The Daily Express critic said “at the end it left playgoers in a complete fog." only The Daily Mirror's woman critic said that “in spite of ev- erything—a calamitous first act, a woolly ending and some atrocious actlng—I like this play." It was the second blast in a mont-h for Priestley. Critics gave rough treatment to his new novel, cent, Herbert Marshall. Dominion statistician. said in a report Fri- day. In a preface written for a new mental statistics handbook pub- lished. by the bureau of statisticia. Mr. Marshall stressed "the im- portance of mental illness as a con- tinuing health problem of the first magnitude." At the end of 1952. the last date for which complete figures are available. there were 61,925 pati- ents in mental hospitals and 54,- 284 in public hospitals, excluding Newfoundland. The handbook published today is intended as a guide to hospital authorities in classifying and de- fining terms and is designed improve statistics. Mr. Marshall said "advances combattlng infective diseases, prolonging life expectancy and ' the general improvement of physi- cal health, have not been matched by comparable reductions in the incidence of mental disorders." "Indeed, the successful control of a number of deadly diseases has served rather to accentuate the seriousness of mental illness as I piness, and, from another view- point, of great wastage of "The Magicians“. human resources." 9 I absorbent. experience in lasting comfort.
