(Effectiveness of surfactants is partly due to their ability to solubilise oily soils, Monsanto research shows.) "Measurements of organic contaminants in the Nation's rivers," by Francis M. Middleton and James J. Lichtenberg, Robert A. Taft Eng. Center: Ind. & Eng. Chem, v. 52, no. 6, p. 99A-102A, June 1960.

"Twenty years of progress in ion exchange," by W. S. Morrison and Joseph Thompson: Water & Sewage Works, v. 107, no. 6, p. 225-230, June 1960. (The ten most significant developments in this period according to the authors are: organic cation resins, weakly basic anion resins, strongly basic anion resins, hot lime-sodium cycle exchange, chloride anion exchange dealkalization, mixed bed deionization, counterflow regeneration, automation of equipment, high flow rate ion exchange, and continuous ion exchange. These are reviewed both in the light of historic place and manner in which it increased the usefulness of ion exchange techniques.) "Review of detergent research program," by P. J. Weaver: Jour. Water Pollution Control Federation (formerly Sewage and Industrial Wastes), v. 32, no. 3, p 288-296, March 1960.

Bernal: Scientific American, v. 203, no. 2, p. 124-137, August 1960. (new geometrical analysis shows that there is some order in the disorderly arrangements of the molecules of a liquid. The method may lead to a general theory of the liquid state.) "Geologic history of sea water," W. W. Rubey: Geol. Soc. America Bull., v. 62, no. 9, p. 1111-1148, September 1951. (signed) S. K.
