ATOMIC
NucIeor Energy Held
Fuel for the Future

tricity generated must be used
at point not too remote from
the dam. Tidal energy prof.
ects, like 'Quoddy in Maine,
are a form of hydro power and
the same limitations apply.
Sun Power Doubtful
That leaves solar energy
direct conversion of the suns
heat to power-and the two
forms of atomic energy, fusion
and fission.
Although there is plenty of
sunlight hitting the earth every
day. solar energy does not now
seem to hold much promise as
a worldwide source of usable
power.
Fusion, the process which
makes the sun burn and the
hydrogen bomb explode, is q
thing of tremendous promise
A single ounce of one form of
hydrogen theoretically could
produce fusion energy equal to
the heat in 1850 tons of coal
The raw materials for fusion
power are unlimited. Un-
fortunately, at the stage of the
game no one knows whether
fusion power is feasible; it may
be years before we find out.
/ So that leaves the power OF
the fiSsioning atom-the con-
trolled release of the atomic
bombs energy. We still do not
know how to do this very well
but at least we know it is pos
Sible and we are reasonably cer-
tain that great improvements
are Just a matter of time and
engineering.
But is there enough atomic
fuel to keep the world going
The experts differ but theiI
answers are affirmative. One
school says that there is enough
to tide us over until fusion
power becomes feasible. The
other says that there is more
than enough even if we never
harness fusion.
! This much is known about
the atomic fuel supply: There
is a great deal of it around. In
fact there is more actually re-
fined than we know what to dc
with. In 1945 the world was be.
lieved to contain possibly l mil
lion tons of recoverable uranium
ores. Last year six times this
much was mined in the Colora
do-Utah-New Mexico ares
alone, and that region still j.
known to contain 90 millior
tons Of readily recoverable ore
This does not take into con.
sideration the vast supplies o.
another element, thorium, which
has value as a source of atomic
power. 1t is even more plentiful
than uranium.
DR.. Harrison Brown, pro-
fessor of geochemiStry at Cal.
tech, believes that if man evel
really needs to scratch for hi!
power, the granite rocks of the
earth's crust will provide
enough uranium and thoriun
to keep civilization going tol
40 billion years. Since this il
about 10 times the life ex.
pectancy of the earth, Prof
Browns burn the rocks
theory is consoling. 1t might
be mentioned, however. thai
his calculations are not uni
versally accepted as valid.
1t is hardly necessary tt
look ahead 40 billion years, OF
even 40 years, to discern g
need for atomic power. Within
10 years the atom will prob
ably be significant energy

who mad been a friend to the
neighborhood for about 40
years, first as an employe and
later owner of the little store.
They have theorized that one
or two men entered the store
shortly after 2 pm, and asked
for several items. Mr.. Umhau
apparently had begun collect
ing them and putting them on
a counter, among them a
toothbrush and toothpaSte.
Probably when his back was
turned, he was attacked, struck
to the floor and beaten to
death.
About 3 pm. q l0-year-old
girl Aurelia Tanner of Is
street NV, entered to buy sn
ice cream cone. She still was
waiting patiently 10 minutes
later when Pervis Rayford, Sc,
of 728 Tewkesbury place NV,
walked in to use the phone.
Saw Feet Behind Counter
Mr.. Rayford told police he
could not make out a number
he was about to call, emerged
from the phone booth, saw Mr..
Umhau's feet behind the coun-
ter, then asked the girl if she
could make out the phone num-
Der.
She said she could not, and
left to get Robert Johnson, 81.
of 1926 Gale street NE, to see
if he could read the number.
Entering the store, Mr.. john
son saw the body and ran to
get Mary Elwood, 66, of 5 I
street NE, who called a priest
and the police.
Detective Sergt. Arthur L.
Weber, who had known the vic
tim for many years, was the
first to arrive. That was at
3:17 and within minutes the
area was swarming with police.
Born in District
Mr.. Umhau was born in the
TOO block of Tenth street Sc.
February 4, 1894. AS a boy he
worked around drugstores in
that section, forming his life
time interest in the vocation he
was to prepare for at George
Washington University.
For many years he was phar-
macist for the late William
Kenealy, whose name the store
still carries. Later the store
was managed by his wife, Mrs.
Florence C. Kenealy. In time
she gave the property to Mr..
Umhau as a reward for his
long years of faithful service.
He had lived at SOL Girard
street NV. for more than 80
years.
Because Of his age and the
fact that the store soon is to
lose out to the redevelopment
plans, Mr.. Umbau planned to
retire within the next few
months. His wife, who suffered
a stroke, is due to leave the
hospital next week.

AS in the States, they would
vote for members of the Elec-

would ballot for President and
Vice President.
The House version limits the
number of District electors to
the number of electors chosen
in the least populous State. -
This number would be three
Three also would be chosen
Iif the number of District
electors were based purely on
a population formula applied
in the States, according to the
latest Census Bureau esti-

DeletiOn Protested
Some objections have arisen
to the electoral college limit
Also, there are House members
who don't like the deletion by
the House judiciary Committee
Of a clause to allow District
residents to elect delegates to
the House.
Such sentiments, obviously in
the minority on the Judiciary
Committee, may or may not
have a chance to be clearly
expressed in the House today
The debate as recommended
by the Rules Committee would
allow no amendments to be Of
fered to the pending propose
from the floor.
The only chance to offe,
amendments is to change the
rule for debate. And this car

immense value: The more we cultivate sense of
historical continuity the more capable we should be
of facing the problems of the present and the tasks
of the future. We all live within our heritage of
thousands of years of history; it provides us with
feeling of continuity and tradition.
Why is feeling of continuity important? First,
it gives us confidence. We realize that we are still
here, strong and assured in spite Of thousands Of
years of change. 1t helps to develop of pro-
portion when things start to go wrong. Knowing the
history of other nations will teach us tolerance
toward people different from ourselves "a most
important asset in the fast shrinking world of today
But you needn't go back to Rome or Ravenna to
make friends with history. Americans can start in
their own home town.

on which the American Civil War was fought

figure Of the American War Between the States.
For residents of the Southwest and Far West, the
land in those regions has been barely settled.
Fremont, Custer, Sutter, and Lewis and Clarke
merely await an introduction in local museums and
Libraries throughout the West.
Why should we delve into the past when the
present is so full and the future so stimulating?
Well, the most compelling argument for making
friends with history and becoming specialist is
that we now live in a world which is fast being
altered by scientific and chronological progress.
We must remain human
1t goes without saying that in this age of Sputnks
and Luniks more attention must be paid to science
and technology. We must compete with the Com
munist Empire and even keep step ahead, but We
must not become captives of our own ingenuity.
We must remain human, or we shall become
robots.
And through the study of history we uiu remain
human, and aware of our glorious past. - Tn. End

and she made him an exemplary wife and influenced
his craftsmanship.
Theodore could be cruel and vindictive, to be
sure but even her detractors admitted that she was
charming.
She even saved Justinian's throne one day by
refusing to flee during an uprising which carried
the insurgents right inside the palace walls.
Most of the historians whom have read agree
that Theodora's great courage and imaginative
thinking helped make Justinian's reign one of the
great periods of history.

Theodore is that she readily provides link with
our rich and lustrous historical past.
Thus, for instance, Theodore and her fascinating
personality, in linking you with the past, inevitably
carry you from the broad streams of history into

Justinan's most enduring contributions TO posterity
was the establishment of the reign of law on which

something beyond their -four

So successful was the first
visit, made by Mrs. Hoff, Mrs.
George Stroud, and Mrs. Joseph
Kovatch, that it was with great
reluctance that the patients
bade them goodbye.
They had played pinochle
with them, and the friendly eX-
change of talk over the card
table created a warm response.
The following week when they
returned, the tables were all
set up and the cards laid out,
proving that the stimulus of
sincere interest is enough to
create the desired re-activa-
ton.
Listening to these volunteers
talk Of their visits, aside from
the more humorous aspects
which must accompany all types
of social work, there is a note
of unselfish dedication to the
values of human dignity and
the rights of the individual.
Continuing their desire to
arouse interest. plans are be-
ing made to give this group
some "inside- gardening" with
pre-planted packages of flow
ers. The broad window-sills of
the hospital will serve we'll as
garden spots.
Anyone who would like to
join this little squad of volun-
teers, either on a once-a-month
regular, or alternate, basis, is
welcome to do so. Mrs. Hoff
would be delighted to enlarge
the group so as to entertain
more of her "old gentlemen" at
each visit.
