end the glowing descriptions of the untapped
treasures still to be found within the ine
visible nucleus.
"You men and women of science and
engineering realize -=- more acutely than the
rest of us -- that our conntry could forfeit
moeny of thove treasures unless it continues
to have sufficient numbers of trained people
like yourselves, posvessed of the skill and
Imagination to prospect and mine them, and
to bring them into the lives of the people,
Ye must have a large:reservoir of scientific
and engineering talent, and make certain that
this reservoir is constantly replenished,
otherwise as a nation we will be out-distanced
and left behind.
"The fact is that as a nation, we
face a mounting shortage of ekilled manpower
-~- a shortage which involves every field of
science and engineering, and one that is
particulerly serious in the field of nuclear
technology since the nuclear art depends
upon practically all the many specialized
skills of science and engineeringȤ
