Top Nuclear Scientist _ J Writes On Russia Visit

(Editor's Note: The following dispatch is an excerpt from the diary of Dr. Luis Alvarez, noted American physicist who visited the Soviet Union last M*y. It was obtained by courtesy of the publication Physics Today, ) By DR. LUIS W. ALVAREZ (Distributed by United Press) The high energy physicists in Russia are repeating all the experiments done in the Western world and extending them to the higher energies available at the Volga lab. Their work appears to be very well done, with good accuracy, on excellent equipment The big question mark is this: Os the huge pool of technically competent people, yhat fraction will be able to do original work when they have completed their big program of training x»n previously done experiments. Although I heard of some very novel and even brilliant ideas in the field of nuclear machine design. I didn’t see or hear of a single new idea for an experiment in nuclear physics. I feel sure that some of the new crop of experimental physicists will be able to think of ideas for new experiments, but 1 don’t know how favorable the climate will lie sot them to try them out. The Russians operate on the German system with one ‘•professor" per institute. If the professor isn’t receptive to the ideas of the yoipiger men in his institute, he can keep them from doing original things.

With the great financial rewards for success, it is possible that the spirit of cooperation between men in a particular institute may be hurt by jealousies. • My guess is that there are at least a few really good physicists but that the “trade school" type of training they receive may hurt the development of originality . . . no director can think of everything so he must trust his" young people to try their own ideas, even if most of them are no good. About 60 of us visited . . . Mescherakoff’s Institute where the nun6Bo million volt cyclotron is. it is the most powerful cyclotron in the world, but it will be only a few months more until the Berkeley University of California machine will be running at 720 millions. We were all bowled over when wo- saw the cyclotron itself and air the experimental apparatus which was set up for business. The workmanship on all parts of the cyclotron was of the very highest quality. I have seen all the large American cyclotrons and this is better engineered than any of ours. But even more impressive than the accelerator itself was the amount of experimental equipment, its technical excellence sp»m the engineering and physics standpoints, and the number of experiments set up simultaneously. After an hour or t wo at the cyclotron Site we drove ... to Veksler’s Institute where they are completing construction of the world’s largest bevatron — 10,00(1,000,000 volts as contrasted with Berkeley's

isoe.ooo.oo*. The machine looks very much like otirsi but weighs 36.000 tons instead of our 9,000 tons. They have done ,a few things better than we ditty and a few not so well. The labs are surrounded by a pair of tough looking barbed wire fences separated by about 20 feet with guards at handy injervals. We then went to the main control room which is out of this world. It is 60 feet on a ride and two stories high with racks of electronic, equipment around the walls on both stories. In the center of the room is a large control desk which NBC could be proud of. I was taken to the institute for heat reserach which Is run by Allkaniaoff. He won the Stalin prize several years ago and his brother, Alikanian, announced the discovery of a new “elementary particle" at the conference yesterday. We went to Alikanloff’s home which is on the institute grounds It is a beautiful place, well furnished and very large and comfortable. This is the way the typical big shot scientists live in Russia. We heard they were privileged members of society and I can certainly confirm that. The Moscow State University . .. is the most imposing building in the whole country and it dominates the skyline. The tower is over 800 feet high. There are 16.000 students And all but 1.000 of them live in the skyscraper. There are 2.000 students majoring in physics and of these 500 are girls. American schools train very few women physicists. (Next: The People.) U N. COUNCIL (Continued from Paste One) charges against it. “preposterous and fallacious though they were."

NIPSCO Directors Declare Dividend The board of directors of Northern Indiana Public Service company declared a dividend of $1.0625 a share on the 414 percent cumulative preferred stock; $1.13 a share on the 4 Vi percent cumulative preferred stock; and $1.06 a share on the 4.22 percent cumulative preferred stock, Dean H. Mitchell. NIPSCO president, announced today. All three dividends are payable October 15. to shareholders of record at the close' of business Octobers. FOLLOWING PLEA (Cnutlnued from I’nne One) plished by fiat but that his administration will continue efforts to establish an economic climate in which the worker receives the maximum reward for his efforts. Dwelling for the moment on Nixon’s forecast, Mr. Eisenhower said if the day can come when the United States can have a fourday work week he thinks it would be fine. He added quickly, however. that no man could say this would coine about purely tie<tad/ e he, the President, said so.

Brother Milton Is Defended By Ike Denies Appeasement Os President Peron WASHINGTON (UP) — President Elsenhower today stoutly de fended his brother Miltou against charges by Democratic presidential candidate Adlat Stevenson that he had figured in appeasement of ex-P.resideut Juan. Peron of Argentina. Uy way of counter-attack. Mr. Eisenhower declared that Democratic administrations—-not his administration —had loaned 130 million dollars to the Peron government. His eyes flashing, Mr. Eisenhower said he had ordered the state department to prepare a full report on Dr. Milton Eisen bower's efforts, as the Preside.it put it, to promote better friendship in the Western hemisphere: He said the state department report will be made public without comment when it is completed. The President was clearly rankled by Stevenson's charge in a campaign speech at Miami that the Eisenhower administration had appeased Peron and that a member of the President’s "personal family assumed a special, if informal. responsibility for our relatioßships with Argentina.” Stevenson said the Eisenhower administration hud “made loans to Peron and Peron in turn piled up balances of more than 100 million dollars in Switzerland for the benefit of . . . Peron.” Records of the Export - Import Bank show that the Eisenhower administration offered to lend the government or businesses of Argentina 62Va million dollars while Peron was in power but that none of the money actually was transmitted. The export import records show that the Truman administration agreed to loans totalling more than $130,000,000 for Peron’s regime or Argentine business firms. Os this, about $101,700,000 actually was drawn by the Argentine government. The President said he understood the opposition was very disturbed that the U. S. government had given the Peron government more than 100 million dollars and that most of this sum had found its way into Swiss banks. Mr. Eisenhower, in strong tones, said it. is true the United States loaned the Peron government 130 million dollars. But he said it wasn't the Republican administration —it was the Democrats who made the loans before Mr. Eisenhower became president. State Rural Youth Camp October 5-7 Final, plans have been announced for the state rufal youth' week-end camp to be held at Merom Institute October 5-7. Merom Institute is located in Sullivan county' near the Illinois 6 state line, just south of Terre Haute. The program will consist of hayride and wiener roast, moonlight hike and cook-out. Wynn Anrholter with the department of education in Indiaftapolis will discuss personal problems. Hass!. Schenk of the Indiana Farm Bur eau will adress the group. A vcspeservice will be planned for each evening. A Sunday morning worship service and the noon eal will close the camp. Cost of the camp will be $6. Anyone interested in attending state ;ural youth camp is asked to contact the county extension office in the basement of the Decatur post office. Deadline for reservations is October 4. Several rural youth members from Adams county are planning to attend. MARSHAL TITO (i thitied from I’ukp One) ceded that the trip has far more significance than a mere Black Sea vacation.
