The employe appealed to the Sec

he was neither member of the

sympathizer. He said he had signed
the nominating petition on behalf

Apparently the Navy's investiga-

he is now back on the job.

The great magnet, containing
more steel than a destroyer, &C
counts in size and weight for most
of the cyclotron, which is expected
to start operating next summer. 1t
is being built in cooperation with
the Office of Naval Research. and
is housed in new 100-foot building
at Nevis, a university estate close
to New York on a hillside by the
Hudson River.
The cyclotron will be smaller than
the 184-inch cyclotron at the Uni
versity of California, but will be able
to reach higher energies through its
later, more efficient design, said DR..
John r. Dunning, scientific director
Of the project. and Prof. I. I. Rabi,
head of the physics department.
The California machine has fired
atomic particles at energies up to
200 million electron volts, but this
one may reach double that energy.
The fission of Uranium releases
energy of 200 million electron volts
The higher energies are expected to
break up atoms more completely and
yield clearer picture of their
structure and what binds the atomic
cores together.
Plans have been drawn at several
research centers for still more
powerful machines, of various de-
sign, which might reach billion
volts energy or higher.

IRvINGTON, N. Y, Dec. GA
2,300-ton magnet for the worlds
most powerful cyclotron, one ex:-
pected to smash even heavy atoms
into 10 to so parts, was completed
today at Columbia University's new
nuclear physics research laboratory
here.
1t will enable physicists to explore
deeper into the secrets OF the cores
of atoms, perhaps leading to creation
of new kinds of matter and to new
knowledge about the strange kind of
glue that holds all atoms and thus
the whole world together.
The cyclotron will fire atomic
bullets at new high energies Of 400
million electron volts. These may
create mesons, the mysterious par
ticles which are detected after cos
mic rays hit atoms in the atmos-
phere. Physicists do not know
whether the mesons are created by
such collisions or are knocked out
OF atoms. but they suspect the
mesons may be vitality important in
keeping the nuclei or cores of atoms

Atom Board Offers
100 Stable Isotopes
For Use in Research
By Thomas R. Henry

| More than 100 stable isotopes of
20 elements were made available for
scientific research by the Atomic
Energy Commission yesterday.
They are being produced by the
electromagnetic and thermal diff
fusion isotope separation plants of
the commission and, the Carbide
and Carbon Chemicals Corp. at Oak
Ridge, Tenn.
| Isotopes are forms of an element
whose atoms have slightly different
weights than those of the ordinary
forms Some are distinguishable
only by these differences in weight.
Others not only have different
weights but are radioactive. The
latter are produced in the great Oak
Ridge uranium pile through neutron
bombardment, and a large number
of them have been available for dis
tribution for more than a year.
They are Of great value because
they can easily be traced through
various physiological processes by
means of the radiations which they
emit.
The difficulty is that some of the
most valuable have very short lives,
reverting to nonradiating materials
in few days or few hours. Thus
they are unsuitable for long-range
experiments.
The stable, nonradioactive iso-
topes, now to be distributed for the
first time, remain the same forever.
They are for the most part, not
manufactured by bombardment but
exist in nature, mixed with several
other forms of the same elements
They are extremely difficult to sepa-
rate. The problem, for example, of
separating the explosive uranium
235 from ordinary uranium, with
which it occurs in a ratio of about
one atom to 1000, was one of the
major hurdles in the early days of
atomic bomb research.
The apparatus developed at that
time can now be used for the sepa-
ration of other stable isotopes. The
commission emphasizes that they
have nothing to do with atomic
bomb or atomic energy research in
themselves.
1t is planned to set up a stable
isotope pool from which the ma
terial can be borrowed, used in
experiments, and returned un-
changed in essentially the original
amount for other researches.

Wa|kout al Oak Ridqe
Approved by Union if
Contract Talks Fail
BY fhs Associated Press

CIO workers at the Oak Ridge
tTennD, atomic energy plant
yesterday received approval of
their international union for a
strike which they have author
lied to be called if negotiations
fail.
Martin Wagner, international
president Of the United Gas, Coke
and Chemical Workers, said in a
statement that the unions Local
208 at Oak Ridge had requested ap-
proval and that he had granted it.
The present contract expires Tues
day. -,
The Atomic Energy Commission
indicated yesterday that it has no
intention Of stepping into the dis
pute.
Further Comment Inappropriate.
An official statement by the COM
mission said:
The responsibility of finding a
workable basis for agreement rests
on the union and the operating
corporation; for 1t will be obvious
to every one that interruption of
production Is unthinkable.
In the present circumstances,
further comment by the commission
is inappropriate"
A commission official noted that
negotiations are being handled by
the union and the contractor-the
Carbide and Carbon Chemicals
Corp.-under regular procedures of
the Labor Management Relations
Act.
Security" Is Involved.
Chairman Hickenlooper of the
Senate House Atomic Committee,
said he believes there are means
available to assure continuity of
work there" He said he regards
continuance as "a matter of
security" He did not discuss any
specific measures,
Mr.. Wagner criticized the company
and the commission. He said the
union had been unable to settle
grievances Of many kinds over the
last year.
Although operating the project
for the commission, the corporation
has acted as though it had no re-
sponsibility to anybody" the union
chief asserted. Likewise the COM
mission has declined to accept any
responsibility for conditions at the
project"
Wagner Offers Version.
Mr.. Wagner said meeting with
the commission, attended by C1O
President Philip Murray, was held
last Monday on the eve of negotia-
tions on the contract. The CIO
group sought it, he said, in hope of
finding a formula under which all
differences arising at the plant
could be settled without any inter-
ruption to work"
But the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion, Mr.. Wagner related, was not
interested in settling on procedure
to avoid the situation which now
confronts us"
I'VE proposed wider use of arbi-
tration as means of settling dis
putes but the proposal was not &C
cepted," Mr.. Wagner said. "At that
time we told the commission that
If it insisted on treating Oak Ridge
In the same manner as any privately
owned and ~controlled industrial
plant we would have to conduct our
selves accordingly. The strike vote
is the result"

sion atomic process plant here, Of
ficials of the Carbide q Carbon
Chemicals Corp. and union repre-
sentatives ended a f1ve-hour nego-

pared to meet again tomorrow.
The company and the United Gas.
Coke and Chemical Workers Union
(CIO) are seeking to agree on a
new contract to replace the present
one which expires Tuesday. They
negotiated four days this week.
Clark Center, general manager of
the plant, said after the meeting, Il
feel considerable progress was made
in pointing up the minor issues and
I hope we will reach the major
issues tomorrow. The feeling was
friendly and we Carbide officials
are hopeful we can reach settle
ment."
Clyde L. Terry, president Of the
local union, has said the main point
at issue is a blanket 25 cents an
hour wage increase sought by the
union, which has been certified by
the National Labor Relations Board
as bargaining agent for production
employees at the plant.
Others of "a or more points which
have been reported at issue include
intra plant wage inequities, premi-
UNI pay Tor off-hour shifts, sick
leave and improved holiday and
overtime provisions.
Mr. Center said the company con-
siders the present contract with the
union ends Monday midnight. while
the union feels that the contract
lasts until midnight Tuesday.
