...from unique in their feeling about Government meddling in their business. Yet despite all the federal controls, the American farmer through his ingenuity and industry keeps raising bigger and better crops. He thereby contributes to the U.S.'s crisis of abundance. Still, in the age of the atom and at a time when famine remains a fact of life to millions, there could be worse crises...
...concessions to drill in Iran, India, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco, Somalia and the Sudan. Italy's business leaders fumed as Mattei, building an empire worth $2 billion, poached on more and more preserves of free enterprise. E.N.I. now owns motels, cafes, a newspaper (Milan's Il Giorno), an atom power plant and factories producing synthetic rubber, cement, plastics, fertilizers...
...Life. Determination of DNA's structure was as important to studies of the secrets of life as was the splitting of the atom to physics. The thousands of rungs connecting the helices are made up of nucleotides put together in a definite order. This order is a code that determines whether a particular germ cell will develop into a mouse or a man. The chromosomes that dictate heredity are, essentially, chains of DNA. When one of these vital molecules in an animal cell is altered by radiation, chemicals, or in any other way, the result may be the aberrant...
...green of winter-wheat shoots; other thousands of miles are pasture, dotted with grazing cattle. But the western half of the state is ruggedly mountainous, the steep slopes necked with aspen and capped with snow. Colorado is a land of mining ghost towns and booming oil, gas, missile and atom-research centers. Men in cow boy boots and ten-gallon hats still swing off the cattle trains; but now other men, in Brooks Brothers suits, stride purposefully down the ramps of jet airliners at Denver's Stapleton Airfield. Colorado is also the stage for a couple of ig62...
Most accelerators in the past have been proton accelerators. Protons, nearly 2,000 times as heavy as electrons are substantial projectiles and were among the first of the "atom-smashing" particles. The proton has drawbacks, however. It is surrounded by a strong nuclear force field, and when two protons pass near each other, the interaction is a strong...
