This report discusses the issue of whether the President has the power to commit military forces to service abroad without Congressional approval and if he does have this power, how much can he do with it. Various proposals to clarify or fix the issue are discussed.

The discovery of a magnetic monopole would be an important experimental result. It would give a reason for the phenomenon of exact electric charge quantization that is not explained yet any other way. Schwinger's dyon theory makes monopoles even more important because they would also be the quarks, i.e., the building blocks of the hadrons. Schwinger's scheme requires the electric charge of the monopoles to be a multiple of 1/3 of the electron charge while all magnetically neutral particles must have electric charges equal to an integer times the electron charge. Monopoles would be also responsible for CP violations.

Report on the amount of water flowing in the Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River and chemicals in the water during low flow.

The use of Columbia River water as a reactor coolant and the subsequent discharge of this cooling water into the River introduces a number of radioactive elements into the river environment. These radionuclides are produced by the neutron activation of stable elements in solution in the cooling water and the sloughing off of radioactive corrosion products from the surfaces of the reactor cooling tubes. The relationships of these radioactive materials to river organisms have been studied since reactor operations began in 1944 (1-10). Radioanalyses in the earlier studies (3, 4), dealing mainly with seasonal variations, species differences, and geographical distribution of radioisotopes by the river biota, were confined to the measurement of total beta emitter activity and to the estimation of relative amounts of phosphorus-32 through decay curve analysis. The purpose of this study is (1) to define the interspecies and seasonal variations in the concentration of several of the more biologically important radionuclides, and (2) to update the findings of some of the earlier investigations.
