...Democratic Atomic Energy Commissioner Thomas E. Murray's frequent personality and policy clashes with AEC Chairman Lewis Strauss made his departure from office readily predictable (TIME, May 6). Last week President Eisenhower made official his decision not to reappoint Murray, whose term expires next week. Instead, in an obvious effort to head off Democratic congressional criticism, he nominated onetime (1949-53) Truman Assistant Navy Secretary John F. Floberg, 41, a political independent who has been practicing law in Washington since leaving government. Jack Floberg has one sound credential for AEC service: he played an active role in pushing...

The obvious remedy: increased trade in any of three directions: i) the Red Chinese mainland, 2) the U.S., 3) Southeast Asia.

...bomb tosses to napalm drops, from missile launching to night take-offs and landings. One ensign had trouble with his approaches, was waved away three times before making it on the fourth try. Said the President: "Bet the poor kid was crying his eyes out." The Navy was fairly obvious about its yen to get into the strategic bombing business with, but after, the Air Force's Strategic Air Command.

But there are other factors which make the post-war student different--increasing academic pressure caused by rising applications; the difficulty of securing admission to graduate schools; and the competitive bidding carried on by science and industry for top graduates.
