San Francisco civic lesd-j ers are suggesting various sites and are making: elSborate prep-f aratioas to receive the war-torn I society of nations. "Let's get UXO headquarters I here first before we start wrong- ling about where to put it," Lsp- 5 fcans and Grady contend. Preliminary eiscussions iiave turned a spotlight on various tracts which might be available to the site selectors, who will require, according 10 Dr.

Grady. at least 600 acres. The rambling, beautifully landscaped Presidio, historic Army reservations near the Gokiett Gate- Bridge, contains more than twice the needed acreage. Some citizens have also suggested the slopes of picturesque Twin Peaks, landmarks long used by mariners to guide their ships up the blue bay. STUDY IMMirXITY Should the UNO homemakers desire a location closer to the downtown hotel, shopping and dining districts, there is another proposal to raze a largely rundown, semi-slum area close to City Hall.

This scheme was being argued by the board of supervisors when the "let's not count our chickens before they're hatched" spokesmen hushed up the discussion. Other sites, sometimes advocated include the 'nearby Moraga Val-1 ley. an area in the rolling hills near the Stanford Tdnivc-rsitv campus at Palo Alto, several multi-million dollar estates up the San Francisco peninsula in San Mateo County, and Sausalito. across the bay. which is now hard hit by the virtual shutdown of the ilarin shipyard.

Some land is also available near the of California campus at Berkeley, where a. huge cyclotron aided the basic research which resulted in development of the atomic bomb.

It u-as Dr. Alexander Sih-erman's lecture, and he used S1SO.OOO.OOO worth of radon gas in six years in the accompanying demonstrations, given three times in one day in each semester. Recently Dr.

Silverman ex- plaiced how the costly classes came about. His former student. Dr. Glenn D. Kammer, became associated with a chemical firm in 1913 and began to work with radium.

Radium is a solid. Dr. Sih-erman explained, and it is composed of atoms. About half of the atoms tip or disintegrate and give off two gases. One is helium and the other radon.

When Dr. Kammer experimented with the gas back in the early 1920s it was known only- as "radium No uses were known for it. And so Dr. Kammer presented Dr. Silver-man with three three- and-a-third ounce bulbs of radon each day he gave his lecture on radium.

Today, a sealed tube of the gas. now widely used in radium therapy, filled with one millicurie. or less than one-millionth of an ounce of radon, sells for S2.50. But back in the early '20s Dr. Silverman used worth a day just to phoTM the fledgling students how it glowed.

In effect, they believe, the site of the world peace organization's headquarters would have to be sort of an international District of Columbia, with the guest city.

The in a message to the United Nations preparatory commission, declared, that the state was willing to cede any land required for the headquarters. The Truman administration is yet to be heard from on the matter of extra-territorial privileges. but no difficulty is expected in this quarter, either.

Present plans call for the creation of a separate UNO gendarmerie--which might become the nucleus of the first international police force--to patrol the 600-acre- site of the world capital.
