Allen Dulles Speaks.
Yesterday the convention of

Dulles. director of Central Intel

international communism.
He estimated the average an
nual expenditure of international
communism on its front organi-
cations and affiliated activities
in the neighborhood of So billion.
To-day it is not the open Com
munist. the admitted follower of
Marx and Lenin, who is likely to
trip us up" Mr.. Dulles said. 1T
is the neutralist, the soft think
ers about agrarian reformers;
those who merely decry the
methods. but are blind to the
aims of international COM

Sees Graver Danger.
| While complacency is not
| justified in this country, he
said, far graver situation faces
many of the countries of the
free world. some of whom have
yet to appreciate the real mean
ing of Communism or to take
adequate measures against it.
In many of the free countries
particularly in Europe and parts
of Asia. he added. there are well
organized, disciplined Commu-
mist political parties.

people in these Communist
parties would be shocked to be
told the fact that the parties
were run from Moscow.

Industrial Atomic
Power Advances but
Future Is Uncertain
By Thomos R. Henry

Outlook for economic indus
trial atomic power has improved
somewhat during the past year,
but its potentialities remain de-
batable.
Estimates of the cost of an in
stalled power plant of any one of
four possible designs still exceed
by wide margin" the $3.50 to
$3.50 kilowatt-producing- capacity
cost of conventional power
plants, Some years will be re-
CURED to get an adequate pic
ture, according to the 18th semi
annual report of the Atomic En-
ergy Commission released today
It will be necessary to bring in
stallation costs down to about
$500 per kilowatt capacity before
an atomic plant can be consid-
cred truly competitive even with
the achievement of low cost nu-
clear fuel. the report says. This
presumably means with the
achievement of the much-dis-
cussed breeding process in which
more nuclear fuel is produced
than Is consumed which would
make the cost of this fuel less
than 200th of a cent per kilo-
watt hour of power produced.
Work Promising.
Work for accomplishment of
a successful breeding process,
concentrated at the Argonne
laboratory of the Commission at
the University of Chicago. is
described as promising, yet very
difficult and long range"
There are four major technical
avenues of approach to the
economic reactor, the report
says.
These are the pressurized
water type about which the most
is now known, the sodium
graphite plant, the fast breeder
and the homogeneous. Develop
ment and construction of the
first now is being carried out by
the Westinghouse Electric Co
1t will require from three to
five years to complete this plant
and determine its economic
value. the commission estimates
It's fuel will be ordinary uranium
only slightly enriched with the
fashionable Uranium-23 or with
the synthetic element plutonium
At present estimates of cost are
guesses. In this type jacket OF
water under high pressure is used
to transfer the heat produced
in the reactor to conventional
boilers.
Sodium Used.
The sodium-graphite plant is
similar in design except that a
molten metal, sodium, is used in
place of water. Exploration work
for a plant Of this type is being
carried out under Government
contract by the North American
Aviation Co. It also would re-
quire from three to five years
for construction, the commission
estimates.
Before large plants of the third
and fourth designs can be de-
veloped, however. from five to
ten years work will De necessary
The fast reactor type is the one
considered best for the allies
sential breeding process.
Within from three to five years,
the report says, the pressurized
water reactor probably will be
in operation.
Meanwhile studies of .reactor
design and economic feasibility
are being conducted by five ma
jor industrial groups.
During the period covered by
the report, the commission says,
atomic weapons "have been pro-
duced at the rate directed by the
President, and improvements
have continued to be made in
design and fabrication" Some of
the new designs will be tested
this spring in the Pacific.

DO YOU
REALLY
UNDERSTAND?

Many people maintain
that the Bible is so simple
and clear that anyone can
understand it.
Yet today the Christian
world is divided into con-
flicting opinions as to
what the Bible means.
Sincere and equally
learned Bible scholars
take different meanings
from the same words, and
there are many Christian
sects which disagree on
basic Bible questions.
The average Christian
who wants to understand
the Bible, finds all this
confusing =. wondering
which Interpretation to
accept, whom to believe.
The result is that the
Bible often gathers dust
on the family bookshelf,
when it should be bring
ing Joy to the hearts of
men.
Catholics, of course,
join with Christia ms
everywhere in recogniZ-
ing the complete Bible as
the inspired Word of God.
1t could not be otherwise.
For who was it that as
sembled the books of the
Bible nearly 1000 years
ago, and who preserved
it's precious message on
parchment for a thou
sand years before the in
vention of the printing
press?
It is unfortunate, how
ever, that some of the
most devoted Bible read
ers do not understand it.
AS a matter of fact, Holy
Scripture is seldom cor
rectly understood unless
we have certain prelimi-
nary knowledge concern
ing Gods revealed truth.
In writing the New Tes-
lament, its authors took
into account that a
knowledge of Gods reve-
lation already prevailed.
The books they wrote
were intended to instruct
and confirm teachings al
ready known-not to an
nounce something entire
ly unknown. When you
have this preliminary
knowledge, the Bible is
neither contradictory nor
confusing.
The books of the Bible
were given by God
through writer's who ad-
dressed themselves to
people who already pos
sesSed faith in God and
to whom the divinely re-
vealed message was, to
some extent, alrea dy
known. These books seek
to explain and confirm
this message and to in
duce readers to conform
their lives to it. They were
certainly not intended to
teach all of Gods revealed
truth to those who we're
learning it for the first
| time.
| The Bible, properly un-
derstood, can exert a ire
mendous power for good
in your personal and
family life. But to under
stand it, you should know
something a bout those
who wrote the Bible :.
the way they thought,
spoke and the character
lStlcS OF the language Lney
used. BY whom was the
Bible translated how
can we know these trans
lations are correct? What
are the common sense
rules to be followed in
understanding the Bible?
These and other impor-
tant questions concerning
the intelligent use of the
Bible are answered in a
pamphlet which we will
send you free on request.
