:

I regret that I am unable to give you the resulta of analysis

of urine from the 21 other patients.

Knowing that those data would be

highly important to your committee in its evaluations of the medical
status of these patients, we have offered to undertake radiochamical

urine analysis of all 23 patiants. The urine froa only two patients
has been delivered to us in time to permit shipment to the States and

analyais by this date.

More recently, samples from five additional

patients from the Tokyo University Hospital wore delivered to us, but we
have not as yot received samples from the 16 patients now hospitalized
at the Daiichi Hospital.
