Barrel of ‘Atomic Waste’
Found on Oregon Coast
PORT ORFORD, Ore., UP> — A
barrel marked “dangerous-radio
active waste, AEC,” which washed
up on the beach here Saturday
may be an empty container.
That theory was advanced by
Rear Admiral Frank T. Watkins,
commander of the 13th Naval Dis
trict in Seattle.
Geiger counters showed the bar
rel to be radioactive but the Navy
said the counter action was caused
by reflection of sun’s rays on the
sand.
Investigation i s continuing,
however.
