Captioned photographs show named grantees at Oak Ridge and Argonne laboratories, delegates at the Geneva atomic conference and a call on Ambassador Homer Ferguson. The tell is transfer: American laboratories and officials are linked to Philippine scientific advancement under the treaty. ## Propaganda techniques used in this poster [Transfer](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/transfer/) [Glittering generalities](https://propagandaarchive.org/techniques/glittering-generalities/) ## Text on the object Original (English) · read from the image, not independently checked ``` During 1955 nine Filipinos were trained in American atomic science as grantees of the U.S. Department of State and the I.C.A. Under the treaty, more Filipino scientists will study in the U.S. They can train others, thus building a reservoir of experts who can apply the peaceful atom in the Philippines. AMERICAN MUSEUM OF ATOMIC ENERGY Drs. Carlos J. Marquez (extreme left) and Elpidio I. Valencia (7th from right), pose with other foreign students during tour of American research centers where they observed medical applications of the atom. Experience needed in handling radioactive materials safely is acquired by Lt. Col. Florencio A. Medina. Here he manipulates mechanical hands at Oak Ridge. Lt. Col. Florencio A. Medina (left) and Mr. Librado D. Ibe are learning to design, construct and operate atomic reactors. Here they are shown with Mr. Louis Roddis of the Argonne Na- tional Laboratory, Chicago, Illinois. Dr. Vicente M. Belizario (right), learns how to use a radiation detection instrument through discussions with Dr. Ralph Over- man, chairman of the Oak Ridge Institute of Nuclear Studies. STUDENTS AND GRANTEES Philippine delegates to recent atomic conference in Geneva, Switzerland visit U.S. exhibit and view model of atomic reactor. Most of the delegates have studied or observed peaceful uses of atomic energy in the U.S. Working in groups to broaden their theoretical and prac- tical knowledge, Jose C. Torres (center, standing), discusses a point with a fellow student and a school instructor in a reactor engineering labora- tory at the Argonne National Laboratory. Drs. Joaquin Maranon, Amando Clemen- te, and Casimiro del Rosario call on U.S. Ambassador to the Philippines Homer Ferguson, before departing for the U.S. where they observed new uses of atom- ic energy in various scientific fields. 3 ``` [← Atoms for Peace poster, page 2: Philippines treaty (English-text poster, Philippines subject)](https://propagandaarchive.org/collection/atoms-for-peace-poster-page-2-philippines-treaty-1956/) [Atoms for Peace poster, Philippines p. 4: What Is Atomic Energy?
