THERMODYNAMIC data for solutions are best derived from a combination of equilibrium and calorimetric studies. However, the accurate measurement of heats of mixing of metallic solutions at high temperatures presents considerable experimental difficulties, simple calorimeters1-3 giving

Critical Shortage of Engineers M AN POWER commitments for defense, superimposed on normal domestic requirements, exceed the available supply of labor. The armed services, industry, and the professions are sizing themselves up man power-wise and are announcing that serious shortages are imminent or already in existence.

The most important decline in drilling activities during the past three years was in the Boryslaw-Tustanowice-Mraznica fields and at Bitkow in Eastern Poland. A small drilling increase in some fields of the Jaslo and Drohobycz districts, notably Wankowa, Ropienka and Rypne, cannot compensate in new production for the decline in the large fields.
