Two Atomic By-Products
Released for Research
BY the Associated Press

Two by-products of atomic en-.
ergy plants-heavy water and deu.
terium gas-were offered to science
today, opening up wide new ave-
nues Of research.
The Atomic Energy Commission
said the by-products, described by
savants as "the seven league boots
of science are now available ir
sufficient quantities to supply quail
fed research institutions.
Heavy water, which contains
twice the weight of hydrogen ir
ordinary water. is important for its
content of the heavy isotope of hy-
drogen called deuterium.
From these isotopes, widely used
in medical research, scientists are
seeking to learn the very secret of
life itself.
Introduced into a live animal
body, including man, isotopes may
be traced and thus provide new
clues to body processes.

Points Of Order Waived
On U. 5. Job degrading

The House Rules Committee to-
day adopted a rule waiving points
of order against the controversial
section of the second deficiency bill
aimed at controlling the upgrading
of positions in Federal departments.
The action means the whole
House will have chance to vote on
the issue when the deficiency bill
is brought to the floor tomorrow.
The language in question would
require any upgrading of positions,
thus increasing salaries. to be ab-
sorbed within the regular appropria-
tion authorized by Congress.
Chairman Taber of the House Ap-
preparations Committee told the
Rules Committee the purpose of the
provision is to try to stop the wide
spread urgrading of positions after
an appropriation has been made,
thus causing deficit and requiring
additional deficiency appropriations.
