...membrane; on the other side is a solution of such salts as calcium and sodium chlorides that are naturally present in milk. If the milk contains strontium 90 atoms, they pick up positive electric charges from a current flowing through the solution. Then they slip through the membrane and lose themselves in the harmless salts. Dr. Gregor thinks that his process can extract 90% of the strontium 90 from milk at the cost of about ½? per quart. Annual cost of keeping U.S. milk reasonably safe: $230 million...
Poor combat-fatigued 20th Century-Fox may lose The Battle of Leyte Gulf. The studio needs an obsolete cruiser, an obsolete flattop and two obsolete submarines with deck guns. The Pentagon has refused to help with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's Follow the Boys, even though M-G-M agreed to take out a scene that shows an admiral getting seasick.

And the favorite subject that crops up in almost every play Moliere wrote: hypocrisy...
Subjected to Stress. Deeply inhaled smoke, the researchers found, irritates the cells that line the tiniest chambers of the lung (alveoli). The walls of the alveoli thicken, lose their elasticity and much of their ability to do their vital job of exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen. Subjected to sudden stress-such as a cough or sneeze-the alveolar walls rupture; part of the lung becomes useless...
