Star as "the worlds first big

Editors note: The Calder
Hall project is the first In the
world to generate atomic pow
er on an industrial scale, but
that is not its exclusive OBJ
jective. It's major additional
function, the one for which it
was originally built, is to pro-
duce fashionable material for
military uses. According to
Chairman Strauss, the plants
there, unlike ours at Shipping
port, "are not civilian power
reactors, and the British au-
thorities have never repre-
scented them to be so. They
are an important part Of the
British weapons program, and
their primary purpose is to
produce plutonium just as our
great reactors at Hanfprd and
Savannah River produce plu-
tonium." Britain's official news
release on the subject points
out that calder Hall is not
designed in the most economic
way for the production Of cleo

Halls design, but substantial

RICHMOND, Va, Aug. 8 up.
The State was reported pursu-

in its effort to ward off integra-

The move conceded with an
order handed down yesterday by
Federal Judge John Paul direct
ing the Charlottesville School
Board to desegregate its schools
beginning in September.
According to reports. Gov,
Stanley wants the Legislature 10
take complete authority for
withholding funds from locali-
ties that may seek to integiate
Negro and white pupils.
Previously. the Governor hao
said he would ask the Legislature
to give him personal authority

The switch apparently is in

knock down State barriers to in

be reached through Federal
courts if he withheld funds
while the Legislature might en-
Joy more immunity.
The reasoning is the Legis-
lature could not be compelled
to provide the funds for the
localities and the latter in many
instances would be forced to
close their schools.
