The U-235 went through the pores a bit more easily than U-238, and was separated...

For the second month in a row, U.S. industrial production slipped in September, falling a point to a 1960 low of 107 of the 1957-based index; the August decline, in turn, was revised downward to two points instead of the one point previously estimated.
