drawn New York City construction

The project, for which the city
hopes to obtain Federal aid in
raising the estimated $104 million

The plans were outlined yesterday.
Some Of the shelters would be

ary provided for civilian use up to
one third of the amount of cobalt
used in January, 1850.
The electronics industry. which
makes wide use of permanent
magnets, has been developing
substitutes and has been scaling
down the use of cobalt for such
purposes. In the last year such
magnets have used about 35 per
cent of the total cobalt supply.
Kitchen Goods Hit.
Another industry to feel the
effect will be that producing
household goods such as stoves
and refrigeratorS. The enameling
of these articles is affected, since
cobalt is the only known binding
agent between enamel and steel.
Certain uses Of the metal are
protected at this time, such as in
dryers for printing inks, paints
and varnishes, in blue glass where
necessary for optical or safety
purposes, in laboratory equipment,
for decalcomanias and for artists
supplies. With these exceptions.
no person may use more than SO
pounds of cobalt in making pig
ments in any three-month period.
One effect of the order will be
that blue bottles now used to pack
some products and blue paints will
be ruled out.
Defense uses of cobalt include
high-speed cutting tools, high
temperature combustion chambers
as in jet engines, the hard facing
of gun barrels and dies.
Government Sole Rubber Buyer.
In it's step to control all the
Nations rubber the National Pro-
duction Authority ordered that
after tomorrow the Government
shall be the sole importer of ma
tural rubber. Through Govern
ment-owned plants it already sup
plies all the synthetic rubber.
Jess Larson, General Services
administrator. will buy the foreign
supplies and distribute them.
Statements issued simultane-
ously by the NPA and GSA said
that the move is necessary "to
safeguard the supply and to assure
that it is distributed and utilized
most advantageously to the ma
tional defense"
1t is not expected in itself to
affect the supplies going into auto
mobile tires and other consumer
items. One effect is expected to
be a curb on rising prices of nat
ural rubber.
The curb on bank credit was
accomplished by raising the re-
serve requirements of Federal Re
serve member banks. That means
the banks will be required to in
crease the portion of their deposits
which they are required to main
tain as non -lendable reserves.
The board said that persona.
income should set a record this
year. It climbed in October tt
the unprecedented annual rate OF
$3.50 billion, one seventh above the
rate a year ago. The increase ir
income has exceeded the increase
in personal savings.
The total output. of goods anc
services in 1850 was estimated by
the board at $277 billion. a new
record high and an $18 billion in
crease over the previous peak ir

CLEVELAND, Dec. 29.-Atomic
power. the harnessing of the
tremendous forces that bind the
protons and neutrons of the
atomic nucleus, is not likely to
be attractive economically .eor
long time in the future-aA east
as long as conventional fuels are
cheaper.
Another 10 to 20 years Of scien-
tiflc research will be required to
determine its cost and its value.
DR.. c. G. Suits, vice president
of the General Electric Co., told
the American Association for the
Advancement of Science here
today.
Perhaps never before has so
much been said by so many with
so few facts" DR.. Suits declared.
referring to predictions of an
early realization of atomic power
for industry. "It is safe to say"
he continued, that atomic power
is not the means by which man
will for the first time emancipate
himself economically or forever
throw off his mantle of toll"
May Cut Costs.
General Electric, as a contrac-
tor for the Government. has
played a leading part in atomic
power development but, even with
the solution of some major tech
nical problems which now are
difficult hurdles, it seems un-
likely that there can be much
competition. with conventional
power sources because of the
enormous costs.
Research must continue, he
stressed, because Of military con-
siderations and out Of this may
come discoveries which will
greatly reduce costs.
But at present." he stressed.
atomic power presents an excep-
tionally costly and inconvenient
means Of obtaining energy which
can be extracted much more eco
nomically from conventional
fuels"
Wigner Has Similar View.
Much the same message was
conveyed by DR.. Eugene P. Wigner
Of Princeton. one of the pioneers
Of the atom bomb project, who
pointed out that about a month
ago the Atomic Energy Commis-
sion declassifled the last bits Of
scientific information which are
necessary for any competent
group Of scientists or engineers
to proceed with the construction
Of nuclear reactors, or atomic en-
gineS.
II do not entertain any more"
he said, "the enthusiastic atti-
tude of the early days Of the
uranium propect when we thought
the release Of this information
would be the sprouting day for
scores of privately owned atomic
energy installations; throughout
the country"
Still, he stressed, the profound
revolutions uranium fiSSion has
brought about in many fields of
fundamental physics and biology
have more than justified the costs
of research. quite aside from mill
tary considerations. Much ofsthe
high costs, he said. have been
due to secrecy and the fact that
work on nuclear reactors has been
accompanied by so much red tape.
Scientific Corps Urged.
Establishment of scientific
service corps, a civilian organi-
zation without ranks of uniform,
to carry out scientific research in
the event of another war, was
proposed by DR.. Henry deWolf

Mixed Marriage
Law Hits
Elderly Couple

CAPE TOWN, South Africa CA
NP)- A 70-year-old colored wo-
nan and a 65-year-old white man,
ran afoul South Africa's mixed
marriages and immortality act here
recently.
The act prhibits legal or COM
mon law marriages between mem
bers of different races.
The couple, living together as
man and wife, were arrested when
a policeman saw them together
through their bedroom window.
They were sentenced to three
months hard labor, suspended for
three years, for violation of the
law. The judge told the woman he
sympathized with her, that it was
"good of you to look after the
man and give him shelter, but the
law forbids your relationship"
The effect Of the new law is al
SO causing much concern among
persons of the Moslem faith, some

the minister of justice to discuss
what effect the law has on marri-
ages of white and colored Mos
lens.
According to j. Lalkhen, chair
man of the Moslem board of de-
puties, "it would appear that
Moslems are to be penalized be-
cause of their religion. . There
are several marriages which have
been solemnized under Moslem
rites, which might be upset by the
law as it stands at present.
"Many Moslems," he said,
"could as the law stands today,

Many Harlem fans were out to
