Utilities and Atoms in Atomic Power Progress
Charles Carroll reviews how U.S. utility companies invest in nuclear energy for peacetime electricity. Investors have poured over 500 million dollars in four years, with 423 utilities in projects. The first full scale electricity plant opened at Shippingport in 1957, others planned for 1960. The piece argues private investment drives speed and efficiency, negating the need for a costly socialized crash program.

A countryman rails at fixed almanac times for spring saying such precision is magical thinking. He recalls last year’s March 20 10 06 p m and this year’s March 21 3 55 a m, noting real signs ignore clocks. He values almanacs for dates like Washington’s birth but longs for looser spring timing.
