Cox. p NEW FUTURE IS SEEN FOR FOOD IN ATOMIC AGE MAJOR PROGRESS PREDICTED IN PRODUCTION PROCESSING CHICAGO. Nov. 24—(UP) — Research with the atomic age’s new scientific tools will bring major progress in food production and processing, an industrial research scientist predicts. Dr. W. M. Urbain, associate director of the Swift & Company research laboratories, told the Chicago Agricultural Club that gamma radiation can cihange the characteristics of plants and animals. Atomic radiation also can sterilize and preserve food, he added. Research is under way in several laboratories to find practical uses for these techniques

in increasing food yields from crops and livestock Urbain pointed out. He said gamma radiation has a mysterious ability to alter the genes present in chromosome bodies on which a species' inherent characteristics depend. “Hitherto, we have been dependent largely upon the natural occurance of mutants.” Urbain said. “The use of gamma radiation brings this process more nearly under our control and may prove orf immense value in producing new species of • grains and other crop plants.” The scientist cited an experij ment at Brookhaven National ! Laboratory in which scientists , created a new variety of oats j which yielded well yet was rej sistant to a particular strain of oat rust. The variety was produced in one and one half years, Urbain said, compared to at least 10 years required to achieve a similar result through conventional plant breeding methods. “Mutations can be produced in animals as well as in plants," Urbain said, “but so far this appears to be in the future.” The use of atomic rays to sterilize food promises a revolutionary method of food preserva-
