WEST THIRD ALTON, ILLINOIS Americans Get Jump on Reds, Locate Minerals Russia got jump on tho world 17 years ago the Important new science of seochemlcal prospecting, but geochemlsts think they may have caught up with or even outdistanced the Soviet scientists in giving the pros- liector a new chemical kit. They can't, be sure, because Russia clamped a secrecy lid on geo- chemical research a year ago. Since January 1948 no new reports on Soviet work of this type have been available. It's all very important from a security standpoint because the nation that maps its hidden ore deposits the most thoroughly is in the best position to use those resources In time of war. The U.

S. Geological Survey has made public the translations of six Russian papers on gcochemlcal research. The most important article, by Soviet geologist; E. A. Sergeev, Russia's work up to 1940 In soil analysis as a method of prospecting for mineral ores.

Says youthful, curly-haired Herbert E. Hawkes, director of the Geological Survey's two-and-a-half- year-old project for geochemical research: "Our program got under way in 1946. In addition to laboratory work, we started digging through all the obscure little journals in government libraries, looking lor papers on what other countries were doing about soil-analysis prospecting. We found to our complete amazement that the Russians were 14 yars ahead pt us. They had started the work in Some phases of prospecting research were under way in other countries, Hawkes says.

Sweden for example, making progress on the chemical analysis of vegetation as a-clue to the soil's composition. But most of the reporting On the subject was by the Russians. Hawkes himself had to learn to read Russian in order to translate tho articles and to check the- accuracy of translations by other persons. Hawkes-snys-nt least-three commercial cpm.pan.ies in the United Slates already are experimenting in geochemical prospecting. The Geological Survey project, he adds, is "barely reaching the stage, where we are ready to gVve It a whirl in the field." Army to Notre l)ume SOUTH BEND, Ind.
