The New York Giants announced
they had sold Pitcher Ken Trinkle
to the Philadelphia Phillies. Trinkle,
used exclusively in relief last year,
worked in So games last season and
had a As won and lost record.
The Philadelphia Athletics signed
Jimmy Dykes, former White Sox
manager, as coach, and picked up
veteran Outfielder Wally Moses for
pinch hitting purposes" Dykes
piloted Hollywood last season. Moses
was released by the Boston Red Sox
last fall.
The American League rejected the
minors proposal to curtai1 television
and agreed to recommend a COM
mittee be appointed to reconsider
bonus legislation and attempt to
come in with new legislative sug-
gestions that would be acceptable to
both the majors and minors.
The American League made no
change in the bonus rule as it now
stands and voted to table the tele-
vision problem. 1t proposed a min
imum Of four night games to be
played by the home team without
the consent Of the visiting club, with
the same provisions as the Ma
tional. It is up to Commissioner
Chandler to rule today at the Joint

The grandstand quarterbacks can't comprehend
that onside kick by the Bears opening the second

The Bears were brilliant in that first half.
Their Johnny Lujack-for that first half-had

Send Private Relief Goods
Past Curtain, Wiley Urges
BY the Associated Press

Senator Wiley, Republican, OF
Wisconsin said yesterday he believes
chinks can be made in Russia's iron
curtain by sending private relief
packages to families in the Russian
Satellite countries.
Senator Wiley, in a letter to Sec
rotary of State Marshall, said this
could be aided by a reduction in the
postage rates on relief packages to
those countries.
The Senator asked Gen. Marshall
to back his plea that the admin
istration recommend that the recent
reduction on parcel post rates for
relief parcels for Western European
countries be applied to those nations
now under Russia's influence as well
The best public relations in the
world for America and the American
way of life consists in the relief
parcels going abroad" Senator Wiley
wrote.
1T has been my experience during
European trip that the billions OF
dollars sent by the American nation
as such, we're comparatively unap-
preciated, whereas the hundreds OF
thousands of relief parcels sent by
American citizens, as such, to their
kin and acquaintance abroad, were
! tremendously appreciated"

7ryinq to Sell Yak Tails Here

Tibet, headed by Tsepon Shakabpa
arrived in Washington July 10. Mr.
Shakabpa said at that time that
Tibet is an independent nation and
exhibited his Tibetan passport.
Several Chinese Embassy officials
who were on hand to welcome the
Tibetans pointed out, however, that
China considers Tibet a part of
China. They said Tibet has elected
representatives In the national
Chinese Legislature.
Mr.. Shakabpa said his group
wanted to sell woods, skins and musk
in addition to yak tails. They were
not quite certain what use we would
make of yak tails but said a num-
Der had been shipped here.

Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-01-15
By DAVID E. LILIENTHAL, Chairman,
United States Atomic Energy Commission

THE FARMER and the farm
4 family have a very special stake
in the wise and vigorous develop
ment of the science of the nucleus
of the atom, for peaceful purposes.
Let us consider this proposition,
to see why it is true.
We depend-all of us-upon you,
the farmer, for our human energy.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-01-15

We depend upon you for the ener-
gies that produce great poems, that
build churches and homes, the ener-
gies from which spring such noble
ideas as our Constitution and Bill
of Rights. That energy has been
stored up in the plants of the field
and in the tissues of the animals
that feed on your pastures; thence
it comes to men.
Where does that energy come
from; where do the plants get it?
AS we all know it comes from the
sun. This is familiar to every school
child. But what is not well known
is that the sun is an atomic energy
factory. In the sun, forces within
the atoms nucleus are released and
then transmitted to earth and caught
and stored up in plants. I repeat,
the sur is an atomic energy factory.
Farmer Is Trustee
The farmer then, since time inn

atomic forces, for he is at the center
of the majestic energy-transmitting
function, the function of those who
till the soil and raise the food of
the world.
The farmer may be called the
trustee and steward of that
n~ever-ending miracle by which
the atomic energy of the sun be-
comes chemical energy and then
human energy. Who then has a
greater stake in seeing to it
that more and more is known
about this fundamental force of
nature. and that its fruits are
applied, Than he who. season
following upon season. watches
owe this life-giving process?
You and I have been vouchsafeo
the great privilege of living in thai
moment of time when we can dimly
see ahead a whole new world o.
knowledge about Nature. But the
door to this new understanding il
but barely opened, just far enough
for us to realize that beyond it
portals lie vast new continents tx
explore and develop. Even the mos
talented men of science insist tina
they are profoundly ignorant abou
the nucleus, the dense core of tn
atom, and about the forces that hol,
that nucleus together with energie
that are almost unbelievable.
Nucleus Splitting
Let me illustrate rather simply
Suppose this small black cylinde

leased in the form of heat would be
negligible in amount Originally of
course that energy came from the
sun, was stored in plants, and the
plants became coaD.
But this black cylinder is not coal.
1t is uranium, uranium of very great
purity. This cylinder is made up of
three million billion billion atoms
of uranium, and each of these atoms
has a nucleus. If the energy within
the atoms of this cylinder were re-
leased not by burning, but by the
splitting of the nucleus, by what is
called 'fission," the energy from the
heat that would be created would
be equivalent to that produced by
burning $500 tons of coal. That is
about the amount of coal required
to supply electricity for the city of
Washington for a day.
Atom for atom, the energy re-
leased by the burning of this amount
of coal compared with that released
by the splitting of the fashionable
atoms in this cylinder of uranium
bears the ratio of 1 for coal to Co.,
100000 for atom splitting.
These forces within the nucleus
are so fundamental that it is of the
utmost importance that they should
be understood-in their essentials
by all of us. Here are two facts of
the greatest Importance to every
living being the world over.
First: Mankind has probably
learned more in the past 80
years about atomic forces than
in all the preceding centuries.
Second: Within the next few
yea - a decade perhaps -
if the people of this country
make If plain that they are de-
termined that this nation shall
lead the world in pressing for
ward in this field-we should
be in a position TO unlock new
knowledge about life and mai
ter and growth and disease and
suffering so that wholly new
concepts of human life will fol-
low in the wake of this new
knowledge.
Much of the difference between
a modern American farm and q
backward poverty-stricken farm car
be expressed in word: Know
ledge. There is nothing more in
spring than the way in which
farmers, not themselves scientists
have recognized the Importance o.
science and new knowledge. I dom
mean applied science alone. I NEAR
the support farmers give to funda'
mental research, the application o.
the practical use of which is usual,
neither known nor deemed relevant
In this country the farmer has seer
that the scientist is his partner, hi
companion and friend.
Perhaps the greatest single op
portunity for new fundamental
knowledge about the nature of tn,
physical world lies in atomic ener
gy development. For within the nu
cleus are these deep forces, so ter
ribly destructive if used for war
fare, so beneficient if used to scare
out the cause and cure of disease

the holes in the concrete shield.
This capsule for example that I
have in my hand, can be filled with
a bit of phosphorus, such as you
put on your land, or lime, or pot
ash. The filled capsules are thrust
into the pile, in the middle of the
violent radiation of the chain re-
action.
When that phosphorus Tor If
could be calcium or potassium
or carbon) comes out of that
bombardment of rays. the phos-
phorus is itself radioactive.
that is. it emits powerful rays.

Radioactive Isotopes
Phosphorus that has been through
this professor any other of ore
of other substances-are called sra
dio-active isotopes," or simply ra-
dio-phosphorus, or radio-carbon or
r~adio-calcium and so forth. All this
amounts to is that a radioactive iso-
tope of phosphorus, say, is a species
of phosphorus that is like any other
phosphorus, in a chemical sense, but
this bombardment has given it a
different character in an atomic
sense.
The term radioactive isotope" is
n you should add to your'vocabu-
larry, just as you have added such
terms as vitamin or hybrid or con
touring, or the technical names of
the soil types on your farm.
This atomic pile at Oak Ridge can
make these radioactive substances
in substantial quantities at low cost.
And they have become of the great
est value in adding to knowledge
about fundamental processes that go
on before your eyes every day on
your farm.
You know that phosphorus in the
soil, say, or calcium, or nitrogen is
taken UP by plants. No n knows
completely what happens to that
phosphorus or lime within the plant.
But feeding a plant this radio
phosphorus helps the researcher
tremendously in discovering what
goes on within the plant.
AS this radio-phosphorus makes
its way through the plant it sends
out these rays-in effect sends out
radio messages. The research work
er, in following the course of these
isotopes, uses a device that is sensi-
tive to these radiations, a radio
receiver for such rays. Such a re-
ceiving set is called a Geiger coun-
ter; and this is another phrase you
might well add to your working vo-
cabulary for you will hear about
Geiger counters and see them many
times in the years to come.
