DENVER. Oct. 24.-The Atomic
Energy Commission today con-
f1rmed what it says "looks like
an important new discovery" of
uranium bearing ores in remote
lands of Central Wyoming.
Charles G.. Towle, chief Of the
Denver exploration branch of
the Acc, said because of the
isolated area cit is going to take
considerable time to evaluate
and determine the extent of the
ore deposits"
Uranium is the key Ingredient
of Atomic weapons and nuclear
energy.
The discovery = credited to
Neil McNeic, a prospector-has
started a rush of other prospec-
tors to the public lands SO miles
east of Lander in Fremont
County. The nearest railroad
point is Bonneville. a station on
the Chicago. Burlington and
Quincy, about Is miles northwest
of the discovery.
Mr.. McNeic'ss find has been
confirmed by two Acc biologists,
Mr.. Towle said. Other Acc geol-
ogists are going into the area in
trailers and will make intensive
examinations
"On the basis of the first
tests" Mr.. Towle said, "the ore
which is in the form of carnotite,
will be of commercial grade"
Carnotite is a canary yellow
colored mineral, soft and granu-
lar. 1t is composed of uranium
oxide with varying amounts of
vanadium oxide. It has been
used as source of radium.
Mr.. Towle said the Acc, which
is anxious to build up the ma
tion'S stores of radioactive min
erals, pays a bonus to miners
for uranium ores. This bonus is
paid in addition to the base
price for the first 10000 pounds
OF uranium oxide produced from

Foe of Atomic Power Project
Is Something of a Mystery Man

Maurice B. Mumford, the man
who wants to stop the Govern
ment's 500 million peacetime-
uses atomic energy project, is a
tall, bald. fast-talking gentle
man who describes himself as an
industrial consultant" but re-
fuses to say who supports the
Uranium Industry Association
which he represents in Wash
ington.
Mr.. Mumford issued a state
ment Friday on behalf of the
association after Acc member
Thomas E. Murray announced the
Governments plans to build the
new plant. capable of producing
enough power to service a city
of 100000 Mr.. Mumford said
the association will seek a court
injunction to stop "the socialist
thinking and monopoly minded
members" Of the Acc from
launching the project.
The association, Mr.. Mumford
said, is a non-prof1t scientific,
educational organization sup
ported by paid memberships cost
ing as much as $500 a year in
the case of companies and $50
a year in the case of individual
company executives. It was in
corporated on October 1 and at
present occupies one-room Of

Started in California.
Mr.. Mumford lists himself as
the associations president. He
said he has been an industrial
consultant in Washington for
some years, most recently for a
firm which makes scintillometerS,
the super-sensitive type of Geiger
counter used to spot uranium
from airplanes. He refused to
name the firms for which he
has worked here, or the firms
and individuals which support

ton. However, he said the idea
for the organization originated
in California.

Senator i George Asks
End Of Economic Aid
To Western Europe
sy the A..oelo.sd Pres.

In a move indicating a likely
trend in Senate Democratic pol
icy, Senator George, Democrat.
of Georgia yesterday called for
an end Of economic aid for Eu-
rope.
Senator George, who has
served longer on the Senate For
eign Relations Committee than
any Of his colleagues, said in an
interview he believes the time has
come to limit American assist
ance to military outlays.
Western Europe is in posi-
ton where ! do not believe it
needs any further economic aid"
the Georgia Senator said.
Approves Consolidation.
He approved a reported ad-
minlStration move to consolidate
foreign military assistance with
the regular military budget. He
added that the Foreign Opera
tionS Administration, whic h
handles foreign economic aid,
should be abolished and technical
aid to other nations turned over
to the State Department.
In the past Senator Georges
views have been highly influen-
tial in shaping Senate Demo-
cratic policy on international af-
fairs. The Democrats now out
number the Republicans in the
Senate, 48 to AZ, with one Inde-
pendent, Senator Morse of Ore
gon.
Senator Mansfield, Democrat,
Montana, junior member of
the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, said he will propose
killing off FOA, headed by
Harold E. Stassen, when foreign
aid authorization legislation
comes before the Senate.
Stassen May Urge Cut.
Mr.. Stassen apparently in
tends to recommend a reduc-
tion in economic assistance to
Europe. But he is expected to
contend that some such aid is
necessary. He can be expected
to fight vigorously to keep alive
the organization he heads.
Mr.. Stassen will sit in on
a Paris conference next week
when the 17-nation organiza-
tion for European Economic
Cooperation reviews Western
Eurepe's economic outlook.
In the current financial year,
ending June 80, Congress made
available for foreign aid a total
of $6.6 billion. The major share
OF this was channeled into mill
tary outlayS. The fund included
appropriations made previously
by Congress as well as new
money voted in this years
session.

said they knew nothing about
Mr.. Mumford and his associa-
ton.
The Atomic Industry Forum,
Inc. with headquarters in New
York, said it's members are not
expressing any particular con-
cern over the new project. A
spokesman explained that a poll
of the membership would have
to be taken before the organiza- =
ton could take an official stand.

A meeting of the Republican State
Committee to select a new national
committeeman will be held shortly
after Labor Day when the commit
tee members have returned from
their vacations, Clair J. Killoran,
state COP chairman, said this
week.
The meeting will be held at Do

most favor with the state commit

sought are Robert H. Richards, Jr.,
