Dear Dwight:
This is just a few lines to let you know that our survey plans seem
to be fairly firm for the dates that I recently wrote you.
In case I did
not previously enclose our proposed schedule, I am doing so now.
Mr. Rasmussen and I discussed in some detail with Danny Akimoto the use
of the Trust Territory ship in conjunction with the survey, and Danny
requested that we furnish a date for use of the ship. He also mentioned
that there was a possibility that a smaller vessel would become available
for the Marshall Islands medical use. Has this materialized? If so,
Danny suggested that this might be the best ship for our use. In regard
to the SA-16 flights to Rongelap, we will handle this directly with Saipan.
‘
I know you will be glad to hear that the examinations on
the Rongelap woman who had cancer of the thyroid, showed that she had no
further extension of the disease.
I hope that the request for Trust Territory personnel participation
in the survey can be satisfactorily arranged, and I presume by now you have
arranged for those people that were requested from your district to
participate.
I will keep in touch with you and let you know if there are any :
changes in our plans. I will appreciate hearing from you at your earliest
opportunity in regard to the survey arrangements. With best regards,
Cordially,
Robert A. Conard, M.D.
