The Commissionconsidered a memorandum
from Mr. Derry dated
June 10, 1947, *'Scientific Re-Survey of Bikini’’ (AEC
Doc. 47-56) re-
commending that the Commission approve and support a survey group©
for additional studies at Bikini. Mr. Derry outlined previous conversations with Admiral Parsons on this subject. The Commission conSidered in particular ihe desirability of authorizing and supporting
the participation of Drs. Overstreet and Jacobson in the expedition.
Dr, Warren pointed out that in his opinion it would be preferable that
samples be collected at Bikini and returned to this country for analysis rather thanto permit the participation of additional radio-chemists
for the analysis of samples at Bikini.
The matter was deferred for
discussion with the Military Liaison Committee.
