ANOTHER argument over U.S. scientific progress rages over the question: Is the U.S. falling behind in the race to develop cheap, efficient nuclear power plants to help supply the world's growing need for electricity? After years of what Chairman Lewis L. Strauss considers "impressive progress," the Atomic Energy Commission is beset on all sides-especially by U.S. businessmen who fear, as one said, that "just as little Sputnik has been worth billions to Russia, so we will fail to earn billions if we allow ourselves to slide into a secondary position."

First Came Science. From that meeting came a joint Army-Navy undertaking named Project Orbiter. The Navy was to develop the satellite itself; the Army was to build the vehicle, using Redstone as its first stage.

They want some equally drastic changes in the U.S. atomic-energy program to develop commercial power for use throughout the power-hungry world. While AEChairman Lewis L.
