————
TORONTO, Canada, (/P)—Cur- j
I rent American and Canad i a n
; prospecting for uranium “should
i further reduce our dependence on i
supplies from overseas,” a U. S.
atomic energy official sadi yester
| day.
Philip L. Merrit of the U. S.
atomic energy commission staff
1 told the annual meeting of the Ca-I
nadian Institute of Mining and
Metallurgy in a prepared address:
“The commission’s exploration
program will, we believe, assure
the United States of a growing
supply of domestic uranium ore.
“Together with the results of
the Canadian exploration activi
ties, which are most encouraging,
our program should provide in
creasing resources of this all-im
portant material, and should fur
ther reduce our dependence on
supplies from overseas.”
Merritt is assistant general
manager of AEC’s raw materials
operations office, New York.
