Colonel William P. Trotter of j
ie Georgia State Patrol reminded j
ELECTRICITY from the atom someday will respond
to the flick of your finger. The nation’s electric
companies are helping to hasten the day with
study, research, development and construction.
Sixty of the companies, including the Georgia
Power Company, are spending over half a billion
m [ dollars in building 15 developmental atomic power
“ f plants. The only profit expected from this expendi
ture is knowledge.
It is hoped that this knowledge will help to
solve the problem of producing low-cost electricity
from nuclear fuel. At present, the cost is many
times that of power generated from coal, gas and
oil, or from falling water.
There is no need for a massive program of con
structing large and uneconomical atomic power
plants of present-day design. Instead, the efforts
of electric companies, manufacturers and govern
ment ought to be directed at making the atom
a practical and economical source of fuel.
Unrelenting research, not a nuclear power pro
duction race with other nations, will give us
electricity from the atom at low cost.
