for peaceful as well as military purposes. It is therefore declared to Poiioy of .v. S.
be the policyy of the United States that-
"a. the development, use, and control of atomic energy shall be
directed so as to make the maxinlwn contribution to the general
welfare, subject at all times to the paramount objective of making
the maximum contribution to the common defenso and security;
and
"b. the development, use, and control of atomic energy shall b?.
directed so as to promote world peace, improve the general n?el-
fare, increase the standard of living, and strengthen free compe-
tition in private enterprise.
"SEC. 2. Fly Dlxrs. ~?The Congress of the United States hereby makes
the following findings concerning the development, use, and control of
atomic energy
"a. The development, utilization, and control of atomic energy for
military and for all other purposes are vital to the cannlion defense
and security.
"b. In permitting the property of the United States to be used by
"others, such use must bo regulated in the national interest and in order
to provide for the common defense and security. and to protect the
health and safety of the public.
"c. The processing and utilization of source, byproduct, and special
nuclear material affect interstate and foreign commerce and must l7e
re~ulated in the national interest.
`d. The processing and utilization of source, byproduct, and special.
nuclear material must be regulated in the national interest and. in
order to provide for. the common defense and security and to protect

"CHAPTER 8. BYPRODUCT MATERIAL
"SEC. 8L. DDIIESTIO DISTRIBUTION: NO person may transfer or
receive in interstate commerce, manufacture,. produce, transfer,
acquire, own, possess, import, or export any byproduct materlal, except
to the extent authorized by thrs section or y section 82. The Commns-
sion is authorized to issue general or specnfic licenses to applicants
seeking to use byproduct material for research or development pur-
poses, for medical therapy, industrial uses, agricultural uses, or such
other useful applications as may be developed. The Commission may
distribute, sell, loan, or lease such byproduct material as it owns to
licensees with or wnthout charge : Provided, however, That, for
byproduct material to be distributed by the Commission fora charge,
the Commission shall establish prices on such equitable basis as, in the
opinion of the Commission, (a) will provide reasonable compensation
to the Government for such material, (b) will not discourage the use
of such material or the development of sources of supply of such
material independent of tlt? Commission, and (c) wi1L encourage
research and development. In distributing such maternal, the Commns-
sion shall give preference to applicants proposing to use such material
either in the conduct of research and development or in medical
therapy. Licensees of the Commission may distrnbute byproduct mate-
rial only to applicants therefor who are licensed by the Commission to
receive such byproduct material. The Commission shall not permit
the distribution of any byproduct material to any licensee, and shall
recall or order the recall of any distributed material from any licensee,
who is not equipped to observe or who fails to observe such safety
standards to protect health as may be established by the Commissioe
or who uses such material iu violation of law or regelation of. the Com-
mission or in a manner other than as disclosed in the application
Therefor or approved by the Commission. The Commission rs author-
ized to establish classes of byproduct material and to exempt certain
classes or quantities of maternal or kinds of uses or users from the
requirements for a license set forth in this section when it makes a
finding that the exemption of such classes or quantities of such mate-
rial or such kinds of uses or users will not constitute an unreasonable
risk to the common defense and security and to the health and safety
of the public. ----
"SEG. 82. FOREIGN DI8'rRln$iJ1'IGN Or BYPRODUCT MATERIAL:
"a. The Commission is authorized to cooperate with any nation by
distributing byproduct material, and to distrnbute byproduct material,
pursuant to the terms of an agreement for cooperatnon to which such
nation is party and which is made in accordance with section 123.
"b. The Commission is also authorized to distribute byproduct
