BOX 158 , Utex Exploration Company or ' , The problem of bringing about a smooth transition to a commercial market for uranium has been presented to the United States Congress. Senator Gordon Allott of Colorado appealed to his colleagues in the Senate, to the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy and study to the need for Commission, to give much thought stability in the uranium industry during the next ten years when power produced from the atom will grow to a place of commercial acceptance. As a part of his remarks, Senator Allott secured the unanimous consent of the upper chamber for the insertion of the statement recently made by the Uranium Institute of America before the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy. The statement which was presented by Gordon Weller, executive vice president for the Institute, pointed to the large areas of information still classified which are essential to realistic planning for a commercial market for uranium. ' The stability of the Industry during this period of transition, Weller commented, was not only important to the industry, but to the many western communities in which the uranium industry operates. Commenting on this problem, Senator Gordon Alott said, Mr. Weller cites the need for stability and brings to our attention another point, .which I believe is an excellent one, namely, the need for sufficient planning and information to enable the industry to make the transition from an program now in to the anticipated posoperation, ition in i966, when the ore proGrand Junction Man ducer will be operating in a commercial market.
