Reactions Of Light
On Film Explained

What goes on in photo
graphic film in the fraction
of a second that elapses as
you take a picture?
One recently evolved idea
speaks of the mechanism by
which light of a certain color
sets in motion a chain of
events from which the final
picture can be derived.
Each square inch of photo
graphic film contains sew
eral hundred million crystals
of the light-sensitive chemi-
cal silver bromide. When light
strikes one of these crystals,
a few electronS are liberated
and these electrons combine

Coop Bank Loans Up
20 Per Cent Last Year

The co-ops farmers use to sell and pro-
cess their products and to get farm
supplies borrowed one-fifth more
through the banks for co-operatives
last year than they did in 1957-58.

that the banks loaned co-ops $637
million in the year ending June 80.

The British are looking into

Meanwhile Britain is going

have a range described as Con-

Thor-possibly close to 5000
miles.
The Blue Streak will have

be extended or its weight in

LONDON, July 7 (AP).-The
vice chief Of Britain's air star
says Thor intermediate range
ballistic rocket bases being set
up in England for the United
States-supplied missiles are
about ready for use in the
event Of war.
Air Marshal Sir Edmund C.
Huddleston told touring Amer
icaA newsmen that the bases
are approximately ready to
go" in any emergency.
The British rocket bases are
the first being built In Europe
to strengthen NATO defenses.
Italy has also agreed to the es-
tablishment Of bases for the
American rockets despite Soviet
protests.
While the British have COM
mand Of the Thor bases in Eng
land, the Americans retain con-
troll Of the nuclear warheads
which can be attached to the
missile. United States law re-
quires that a nuclear weapon
can be fired by American forces
only on the specific order Of the
President.
Reasonable Capability
British air leaders decline to
give the date when the Thor
bases will be fully operational.
But Mai. Gen. william H,
Blanchard, chief United States
adviser to the British defense
ministry. says the first Thor
base at Feltwell. in East Anglia
already has reasonable opera

Gen. Blanchard says it could
