PARIS (AP) — Britain was re- ported Friday to have won the race to be first in taming the power released when hydrogen bombs burst. Diplomats of three countries said the British government is‘ ' shortly‘ termed a controlled hydrogen re- action. The discovery of British sci- entists working at the Harwell nuclear research station has been rumo r several weeks. The full implications cannot be known however, pending an announce- ment. Britain, the United States and Canada are bound by an agree- ment to declassify nuclear sec- rets only after they are sure that Soviet Union will not benefit from the new knowledge. Inforrnants said scientists of the’ three countries have been con-‘ suiting for some time now to CHICAGO (AP) — Dr. Harold C. Urey.

SOUGHT WAY FOR YEARS it is known that British scl- entlsts have been working for years on methods to develop con- tainers able to withstand the tre- mendous heat let loose by s hy- drogen explosion. if the British scientists have discovered way of containing and controlling the energy produced in hydrogen explosions. the in- dustrial and peaceful meaninzs would be difficult to measure. It might. for example. avoid the need to use scarce and costly uranium as a raw material.
