British T6 s tart New Atomic Power Plant Soon IONDON, (Reuters) - Britain will soon start construction of ii large plant to produce electricity from atomic energy in northern Scotland, Works Minister Sir David Eccles announced Monday. Eccies told the House of Com- mons the new plant. to be housed in is huge steel shell as a safety precaution, will be ”far more pow- erful and dramatic" than Britain's first atomic power plant now belnz built at Calder Hall in northwest England. He made his announcement while speaking on a government bill to setup anlndapondsnt atomic research and development board. The measure was given second reading. He said the new plant will be an advanced "breader-reactor" type similar to the United States energy plant at Arco. Idaho. It will pro- duce more "fissile" atomic raw material than it consumes, it pro- cess first proved practicable last June in the Arch development. Eccles said the resulting power could generate electricity through turbines and might "pioneer" fut- ure production of electricity in Britain. He predicted the new plant will be paying its own way within 10 years after military demands for atomic materials have moderated. Greek-Town Hos "Ottawa Square" OTTAWA.
