ANNAPOLIS. Jan. 1.-Goy. Nc
Keldin yesterday completed Mont
gomery County's delegation to the
General Assembly and retained it's
feminine-and Republican-touch.
He named Mrs. Kathryn j. Law
lor Of 26 East Woodbine street,
Chevy Chase. to replace Mrs.
Leona Rush of 115-B West Wood
hine street. Chevy Chase, in the
House Of Delegates.
Mrs. Rush. whose husband died
recently, resigned the House post
she had held since 1916. She is
now a secretary in the Office Of
Senator Butler, Republican, of
Maryland, in Washington.
Mrs. Lawlor, an attorney, has
been a member of the Montgom-
cry County Council.
The Governor also designated
Gilbert Guide. a florist of 122
Grafton street, Chevy Chase, to
replace Anders r. Loftstrand.
A Delegate since 1916 and a
House minority leader until an ac-
cident hospitalized him early in
the last session, Mr.. Lofstrand was
appointed to the Senate this
month. He succeeded former Sen
ator Dewitt S. Hyde. Representa-
tive-elect from the 9th (Western
Maryland) district.
All three appointments were
made on the recommendation of

has brought no devices or methods
to completely revolutionize manu-
featuring overnight, or turn desert
areas into verdant fields.
But Gordon Dean. chairman Of
the Atomic Energy Commission,
summed up progress this way in
response to a query whether
atomic energy has lived up to the
great expectations people had for
it at first:
II recall some rather sensa-
tional predictions made for atomic
energy back around the time it
first became knowledge. But
IT you win look at the statements
made by our leading and most re-
sponsible scientists about that
time. think you will find that
atomic energy has measured up
to their estimates.
"We ought to remember one
thing: Atomic energy has never
existed in times we call normal
It was born in time of war and
it has grown up in a period of
international tension and mobili-
cation. The emphasis, conse-
quently. has been on weapons.
In this area, ] believe that prog
ress has exceeded expectations.
"On the productive-as op-
posed to the destructive - side,
progress has been slower, but 1t
has still been substantial.
The surface has hardly been
scratched in these fields, but in
the past few years many hun
dreds of people have been trained
and much knowledge has been
accumulated. Progress should
speed up accordingly. It was a
long road from Benjamin Frank

tron rays from their atomic fur

Approximately IL patients have
so far been placed in a chamber
atop the furnace for this purpose.
Scientists will say only that re-
suits have been promising.
Agriculture Research with ra-
dioactive tracer isotopes, such as
phosphorus, has enabled scientists
to trace nutrients through soil,
into roots and thence through
plants. Thus, they've been able
to determine at what stage in it's
growing cycle the plant needs
fertilizer most: to know where and
how fertilizer should be placed to
give the plants the maximum
benefit, and to establish what
kinds of fertilizers work best I'M
the country's varied soils.
Tips Pay OF for Farmers.
All these tips have been passed
on to farmers with beneficial re-
suits, according to the Acc. For
example, the commission says
North Carolina farmers have been
able to save 4,300 tons of super
phosphate a year as a result of an
atomic research finding that phos-I
phate fertilizers are virtually
worthless as a top dressing for
tobacco crops during the growing
season.

ing.
They speak Of the hope born OF
q few pioneering experiments SO
far-that the use Of such materials
as "tracers" In the human body
may help solve the riddle Of the
processes involved In cancer, dia-
beteS, heart disease. and others
among mans greatest afilictions.
The atomic tracers send out
signals which help scientists study
or measure hidden processes.
Scientists speak Of tiny steps
Of progress already made with
tracer isotopes towards solving the
mystery Of photosynthesis, the
process by which plants use the
suns energy to build up the plant
tissue that animals and men de-
pend upon for food. If man could
duplicate this process artificially
the problem of feeding the worlds
hungry millions would truly be
solved overnight.
Atomic researchers also say 1t
may be possible to produce more
powerful and effective drugs, in
secticides. weed-killers, and plant
growth promoters through chem
ical research aided by radioactive
tracers.
They even have hope that
atomic "rays"-from isotopes or
other sources-may eventually be
employed to produce strains OF
plants resistant to disease, drought
and other hazards.
But what has actually been ac-
|complished so far in using the
atom in medicine, agriculture and
industry? Hhere's the record:
Medicine-In addition to trac-

far in the agricultural end Of the
atomic business, scientists are hot
on the trail Of other leads.
For example. there's o good
chance that atomic radiation, de
rected against certain plant seeds,
might result in the DEVELOPMENT
Of plants having greater yields of
produce and increased resistance
to disease.
And some plant researchers in
Connecticut believe they may be
on the trail Of a technique to pro-
tect the storied American elm
tree, now threatened with extinc-
ton by a fungus infection.
Industry - Radioactive isotopes
are in rather wide use In the
metals and related industries as a
means of detecting flaws in casts
and Yields.
They are being employed in the
paper. rubber. aluminium and plas-
tics industries to provide thickness
gauges for products under process.
For example. a radioactive isotope
is placed above a sheet Of paper
being processed through a ma
chine, and a geiger counter is
placed beneath the sheet. If the
thickness of the paper varies from
point to point. the geiger counter
will show it.
Radioactive isotopes are also
being used to locate leaks in pipes
in masonry-thus sparing
extensive tear-down jobs.
They're also being employed in
research designed to produce bet
ter lubricants. improved automo-
bile tires and other products. And
the Navy is even making dirt
radioactive in quest for improved
laundry soaps and detergents!
