The Atomic Energy Commits
sion has cracked down on q
State university for allegedly
lax operation of an atomic re-
actor.
Citing demands of the pub
lie health, safety and interest,
the Acc ordered the University
Of Wyoming at Laramie to
shut down and lock its research
reactor, effective Immediately.
An Acc spokesman said this
was the first time an operating
licensed reactor had ever been
shut down by commission order.
Surprise Inspection
The action came after an
Acc inspector reported to
headquarters at Germantown,
Md, that the reactor was being
operated without a licensed per-
son at the control console. The
discovery was made during a
surprise inspection on Tuesday
and the suspension order was
issued on Wednesday.
Robert Lowenstein, acting di-
rector of the Aces division of
licensing and regulation, ordered
"the University of Wyoming
(to) shut down the reactor and
maintain dt) in a locked, shut
down condition" Pending fur
ther investigation by the Acc,
the university's reactor license
was suspended.
The action emphasized Acc
concern with safety in atomic
reactorS, which has been sharp
ened since the death of three
military technicians in a "nu-
clear excursion" in Idaho last
January 3. These were the first
fatalities traceable to a reactor
in the commissions history.
Mr.. Lowenstein told the uni
versity it could request a hear
ing to show cause why this
order should be modified or
vacated"
To Request Hearing
In Laramie, Dean H. T. Per-
son of the university's school
Of engineering told The Star

by telephone that a show-cause
hearing would be requested. A
letter to that effect will go to
Germantown shortly, he said.
Asked to explain why the
Acc inspector found the re-
actor with no one at the con-
troll console. Mr.. Person said:
I'VE assumed it was shut
down. We thought it had been
turned off, but we are looking
into it again. We are checking"
President G. D. Humphrey
said the Acc order apparently
came about as a result of mis-
understanding" over interpre-
tation of the licensing pro-
visions.
I'VE don't think we are in
default of the regulations" DR..
Humphrey said.
Dean Person said the reactor,
manufactured by Atomics In
ternational, cost the university
about 100000, exclusive of the
nuclear material in its core,
which belongs to the ACC. A
solution type, light-water-m mod
Grated research tool designated
LIT" it was started up two
years ago and has been run
ming without incident since,
Mr.. Person said.
For Training and Research
Graduates and undergradu-
ates in the engineering school
use the reactor for training
and research leading to nuclear
engineering degrees, the dean
related. About 20 students use
the device, on the average, each
year. and two persons are Ii
censed by the Acc to operate
its control console.
Until revocation of its Ii
cense, the Wyoming LII was
one of 36 teaching reactors"
operating in the United States
under Acc permission. A re-
actor Of a different type but
similar purpose is in use here

America.

objected. whirl-wind hit the Congo for
three days at this time with rioting, looting,
many injuries, and II deaths. The roar of the
tornado forming could be heard, but what
can anyone really do just before a tornado
hits, except to take shelter
After some elections and pressure from
the Congolese, the Belgiums announced that
independence would be granted on 80 June,
1860. Elections were held in May for the 1877
members of the lower house, and the results
clearly showed how badly split the Congo
was, for the top man, Patrice Lumumba, led
the party winning 33 seats. Soon the army
revolted against its white officers, and the
Belgiums fled, bringing on sudden break
down in transportation, communications, and
electrical and water supply systems. The tor
nado was really roaring now with rape muir
der, and beatings of the stepparents by the
children occurring at scattered points.
The Belgiums quickly sent in troops to
protect their citizens and Lumumba asked the
United Nations for protection against the Bel
gums A Congolese leader in one corner of
the land decided to withdraw from all the
fuss so Lumumba asked the UN to force him
back into the nation. Military supplies and
verbal support for the various factions began
coming in from all over the world; the Com
munists Belgiums, United Arab Republic,
other African nations and probably some I'M
identified nations began to take sides.
The tornado itself was bad enough but
many nations set up huge wind machines to
add to the force of the wind Wind machines
were even set up in the UN in New York, and
the hot air from them was reflected to the
Congo Dag Hammarskjold, the leader of the
UN, made gallan. effort to shut off the
wind machines, but it cost him his life

ing blame on each other for the terrible
events in the Congo. The truth Is that there
is so much blame in the Congo that 1t could
be thrown around for years and there would
be plenty left over. Many individuals dismiss
the whole business by saying, "What can you
expect from bunch Of kids, anyway"
Today, the tornado is still roaring in the
Congo. 1t is obvious that the tornado can't
be controlled until the wind machines are
stopped. The UN is still trying, but powerful
nations like France and Russia have refused
to provide any money for this effort, and the
United States is footing most of the bill. 1t
is tragic to see many UN personnel picked up
and destroyed by the tornado, and from the
way the wind machines are blowing, it may
continue for some time

From This Angle
The Tornado

The large tropical playground was filled
with shouting children. These children, hav-
ing step-parents to look after their needs,
were so engrossed in eating, playing, and do
ing the necessary work to get by in their little
world that they didn't pay much attention to
the world around them. Like children every
where they were inclined to join together in
cliques and occasionally these groups fought
one another. The step-parents who controlled
and directed these children had the reputation
of being strict, some even. said brutal. On
the whole, however, in recent years the STEP
parents spent considerable money on the chill
dren's colony having established one univer-
sity in 1854 and another in 1855 The step
parents made 81 million dollars profit from
the mining industry in the childrens land in
1855, but without the direction of the STEP
parents, there would have been no mines
Two unusual facts struck one about
these children; although the children had
black skins, the step-parents were all white,
and despite the fact that these children were
adults in physical development they had re-
ceived no modern education, and politically
speaking, they were infants in swaddling
clothes. These children lived in a land called
the Congo, and their stepparents came from
place called Belgium.
In the Congolese army of $4,000 men all
of the 1000 officers were Belgiums. The Bel
gums had managed to provide university
education for about one Congolese out of ev-
cry million, making a total of IS Congolese
university graduates for the entire Congo
There were also about 500 Congolese in the
Civil Service at the beginning of 1859, but
none were employed at the level where poll
cies or decisions are made. The Belgiums
were talking abou. independence for their
charges, were educating some in the univer-
sites, and were training others for officers
when the warm political air stirred up tor
nado.
A sensitive observer could see the little
clouds of dust being kicked up by the politi-
cal winds in Africa for the last 10 or 20 years.
Many astute individuals, like Adlai Stevenson,
had warned the world for several years that
a storm was coming, but some individuals dis
like thinking about such troubles. After ALL
things had run fairly smoothly for many
years, so why worry about what these proph.
cts of gloom and doom had to say.
At an aIl.African conference In Deem.

by the Africans that all Africa should soon

gOlese about this conference, but the police

Discrimination In The North
Judge Kaufman found, as Ne
gro leaders charged, that the New
Rochelle school board had ma1ip-
ulated school district lines and is
sued transfer orders for white
pupils so as to create a 94% Negro
attendance at Lincoln school The
pattern was similar to that in
southern communities-worse, in a
way, because southerners make lit
tie pretense of fairness in school
assignments"
paul ZubeI, attorney for the
Negroes in the New Rochelle case,
contends that the same situation
exists in Chicago, Detroit, Boston
and other northern cities.
wherever it exists, action
should be taken to end it. We in
the north condemn the south for
discrimination. We are hypocr1tes
unless we move against discrimin-
alton wherever we find it in our
own part of the Countrywide
Journal.
Theater Segregation
Managers Of variety stores here
agreed to desegregate their lunch
counters after a survey by the
sociology department of Wake
Forest College showed that a large
proportion of white customers of
the stores would accept desegrega-
ton. 1t might be helpful to devise
some method by which the attitude
of present theater patrons could
be determined. That, in turn, would
give the managers at least gen.
eral indication Of the effect de-
segregation would have on box
office receipts.-JOurnal, Winston

Rayburn and the Rules Committee
Rayburn has gone a long way
down the road for the party, the
South, and a national common
sense. Any Georgia representative
who forsales him now when the
going Is rocky will show a poor
gratitude indeed to a friend Of ours
who, loyalty aside, also happens to
be, in this fight with Smith, on the
side of right--AtIanta COnstitu-
ton.
Arkansas VS.. District Of Columbia
Well, Arkansas has taken its
revenge against the District of
Columbia. 1t is not entirely clear
whether the Wonder State, in re-
jecting the constitutional amend
ment to permit District residents
to vote for presidential candidates,
was lashing out against the Su-
preme Court for its decision re-
quiring the des egregation of
schools or at the White House for
not permitting Governor Faubus
to use the, National Guard to undo
the Courts DEGREES. What is ap-
parent is that Arkansas acted on
the basis of deprecated passions
and not from an objective weigh
ing Of facts.-Washington Post.
GeOrgia's Retreat
What has happened in Georgia
is even more significant because
the Legislature, in a solemn and
mood, made the change
IN advance Of any real crisis in the
public schools. Governor Vandiver
and the Georgia Legislature are to
be commended for their soul
searching shift in policy. Georgia's
course may emerge as an example
of legislative realism in the South.
