British Atom Head Visiting United States U. S. And British Chiefs Agreed On Cooperation Need SHIPPINGPOftT. i**. (INS) - Atomic energy chiefs of the United State* and United Kingdom agree that cooperation between the two natioha and an exchange of knowledge will help realise the goal of peacetime power from nuclear fission. Chairman Lewis L. Strauss of the atomic energy commission and Str Edwin Plowden, chairman of the United Kingdom atomic Energy authority, visited Shippingport Monday to inspect the first full-scale atomic electric plant project in the U. S. Duquesne Light do. is scheduled to begin operating the Beaver county plant In , about mid-H57. The inspection, on the *ve of this week's H-bomb testa In the Pacific, was the first stop on Sir Edwin's tour of U. 8. atomic installations. Strauss commented that the U S., Canada and Britain worked together to develop atomic energy lb World War 11. but that the partnership degenerated slightly in the first five or six postwar yefirs. However;' he - said, "it has been gradually restored and the of Sir Edwin ia in earnest of a tradition we all hope wilt grow and develop." The AEC chief noted that Sir Edwin is re-paying calls by U. S. experts on British atomic sites and that the exchange of visits and knowledge are working to the advantage of both nations. Sir Edwin remarked that the first of six British ‘’dual-purpose" reactors will o into operation this fall — producing plutonium for military purposes with power as a by-product, and that 12 atomic power stations are scheduled for completion by 1965. He pointed out that because of Britain’s comparatively short supply of conventional fuels, the need for development of economic nuclear power is more urgent in the United Kingdom than in the U. S. However, he commented: "Scientific manpower is extremely phort in both countries arid if we can, economize by shariMg it and avoid duplication of effort H will be of great advantage to all of the free world." Adm. H. G. Rickover, chief of the naval reactors branch of the AEC and a guiding force in developing the first atom submarine, also took part in the inspection tour. The admiral, commenting on the cooperation needed between the U. S. and Britain, remarked the navy is now negotiating a contract for British personnel to aid in unclassified research and development. Strauss and board chairman Philip A. Fleger of Duquesne Light Co., pointed out that the main purpose of the Shippingport plant is not to produce commercial power but to lay the groundwork for planning similar installations and provide knowledge about peace-time atomic power. However, Strauss said: “It is my belief that within ten years, power from atomic energy will be produced in parts of the United States on a basis competitive to convep(u)nal fuels?* h'he heffrt-to-lTe of the 185-mil-lion Shippingport plant, which will produce'at least 60.000 kilowatts, dow looks something like a gigantic steel bowl in a hole in a hill overlooking the Ohim River The bowl is the hase for a tremendous sphere which will house the reactor.

Two of them, 50 feet in diameter and 100 feet long, will house the heat exchangers ’and generate steam to drive a Westinghouse. 100.000-kilo-Aatt. turbine-generator.
