Development of "dual purpose" type reactor systems is suggested in place of submarine reactors, which are considered impractical; space and fuel requirements for large liners and cargo vessels, which could use approximately 25,000 shp developed by nuclear plants; comparisons with present steam practice; questions of safety.
