An egg is two thirds water.

In an interview with the Moont

In closing Ihe interview. The

Dissension Seen
But getting this cheap source of
power across to the people for
whom it will do the most good is
going to make a lot of other peo
ple angry.
Utility companies and oil com
panies, and perhaps the coal min
ers' union. Pochon believes, will
use every trick in the books to
block the universal application of
atomic energy. For they'll see in it
a threat to the existence of vast
fortunes.

conflict, when il does come, will be

When that battle is won Pochon
says there will be a complete re
organization of the world's econ

disappear. For the tremendous
amount of cheap power then avail
able will be produced by a small
working force.
Cities May Dwindle
The problem in the atomic age
of the future will not be to fi net
jobs to provide for the needs ol
mankind, but to find sonicthins
for men and women to do in tlnii
long hours of leisure.
He sees an eventual diminish
