Attempts to rebut the belief that atomic energy developments are shrouded in secrecy.
1241.
HESLEP, CHARTER. The Atom Business. Talk for Richmond Chapter American Association of University Women at Richmond, Virginia
Tuesday, October 10, 1950. Original typescript, with numerous corrections and emendations
in Heslep's hand. 28 leaves, printed on one side only. 4to, stapled. (Richmond, Virginia). 1950.
A very good capsule history of the Manhattan Project, atomic testing, and other developments
to 1950, including a number of lesser-known anecdotes. Presents a very glowing vision
of the future of atomic energy. This is an excellent primary document of the kind
of public relations efforts made at the time by the AEC at the grassroots level.
1242.
HESLEP, CHARTER. Atoms For Peace: Program or Propaganda? Talk Before Springfield College, Springfield, Mass. May 2, 1963. Original typescript
for the speech, with numerous manuscript corrections and alterations in Heslep's hand.
31 leaves. 4to, unbound. (N.p.). 1963.
This was Heslep's last speech for the AEC. Presents a very upbeat view of atomic energy.
Tries to dispel the "persistent myths of atomic energy. . .that everything is secret."
Includes a strong pitch for food irradiation, and admits that after the war, "atomic
energy was oversold. . .pretty badly." Includes a lengthy discussion of the Atoms
For Peace program in the third world.

D.C., Thursday, April 6, 1961. Mimeographed typescript, printed on one side only.
4to, stapled. (Washington, D.C.). 1961.
Heslep was one of the chief ghost writers for the AEC. In addition to numerous papers
and speeches for AEC officials and congressmen, etc., he reveals here that he ghosted
Admiral Leahy's memoirs (published as I Was There), and 4 of the 8 "specialist" articles
on atomic energy for the Encyclopedia Britannica 1955 Yearbook.
1245.
HESLEP, CHARTER. Massive file of about 60 autograph or typed letters signed by Heslep,
mostly to his wife Margaret, with a few from Margaret to Heslep. Various sizes and
formats. V.p. 1950's.
OUTSTANDING ARCHIVE of very candid material from the AEC's top-ranking public information
officer. The letters were written by Heslep from various locations around the world
while in pursuit of his duties, and are full of observations of the inside workings
of the AEC. One series of letters covers the days surrounding Heslep's oversight of
the first public televising of an atomic test, and presents an entirely different
view of events than that recorded in Heslep's officially published accounts. Other
material relates to meetings with the likes of Henry Kissinger, Harold Stassen, &
Lewis Strauss, gossip relating to the Oppenheimer affair, the opening of the Shippingport
reactor, an award ceremony for Richard Feynman, etc., etc.
1246.

Comprises a history of atomic energy developments from the Manhattan Project to 1954,
with a survey of current and potential future activities, followed by a question-and-answer
session. An unusually candid glimpse of the day-to-day workings of the AEC's Division
of Information Services.
1247.

"Ernie Pyle Biography in Sound," January 16, 1958. 2 reels of tape, in 2 boxes. (N.p.). 1958.

City Library, Lampasas, Texas," and with the printed label of "Voice of America United
States Information Agency" affixed to one of the boxes.
1248.
