So we may look for the attomic power plant of the future to consist of the nuclear reactor, or so called ‘pile’ in which heat will be generated by fission, and transferred through suitable means, probably with an intermediate transfer to some more or less conventional:power generating unit, such as a steam tunNbine, a gas turbine; or a unit utilizing the vapor of mercury or some other substance.’’ Revealing that such a plant already is being engineered at Clinton laboraltories at Oak Ridge, Mr. Winne pointed out that the Oak Ridge project is ‘‘simply a_ pilot plant, a developmental installation, really practically a laboratory .ex-} periment.”’ SERVICE TEELE SUPPLY : COMPANY REPAIRS Sommercial and Home Units Phone 911 BELGRANO HEADS VETERAN DRIVE FOR KNOWLAND United States Senator William F.

Small items o! business can be:bungled today an: corrected tomorrow; but not this one. If the United States should once go collectivist completely, it would never be a republic again until people who live now ere forgotten. There are no _ practice shots; we make this decision once, and that’s how it will be. A Nation’s Brains In comparing the. American system with any socialistic plan, one point must be held in mind constantly; Freedom to think. Nothing is more valuable than good ideas and everybody has them. Nobody has a corner on them. Where any person is free to get ideas and put them to work at his own risk, good ones come to light in a hurry and are put to work in a way that helps ‘everybody; that’s democracy. Under any socialistic system of central planning, only a few are considered worthy to think. They have ideas occasionally, of course, but do not try them out at their own risk. They put them to work on a: big scale at the nation’s risk. By this system the whole people must suffer for the blunders of a few. That's collectivism, and the differences show up clearly in general prosperity. A Nation’s Income America is the most prosperous country on earth. At the ‘last check, national income in the United States was equal to that of the six next highest countries; national income being the grand total of what everybody earns. Under the American system, incomes -are different; some higher than others but all high. In socialist countries incomes are more alike, uniformly low. America’s national enemies cry out against capitalism in tones that make the word sound like a dread disease. At least, under the American system, accumulated wealth is used rather than hoarded. Savings in America are invested in machinery to help workers produce more and earn more. Where profits are unlawful, dividends are impossible, production and wages both low. A Nation’s Progress Let me illustrate what the American system is worth to the world: Solomon, King of Israel, and George Washington, the first President of. , the United States, lived about alike. They rode in horse-drawn . vehicles, wore hand-loomed clothes, used animal oil for light and wood for fuel. They lived nearly 3,000 years apart. Think what you have now and remember that Washington died less than 150 years ago. The system of private enterprise has many critics. Students in modern colleges and high schools are able glibly to point out defects in America’s manner of life. Admittedly, it is not perfect because nothing is perfect that is made up of imperfect people. Just the same, when the time comes to choose a successful system, pick one that makes the average man richer. made PAGE FIVE Los Angeles Insurrection 1846 Was War The 1846 insurrection of the Galtfornians around Los Anzeles soon flared into a : ' comewhat dimunitive: war which was not to he suppressed f mont!
