circunstance, Mr. Dean also made the point about U.K. security to U.K.
representatives from time to time,
It is relevant to note in this comection that Dr, Bugher and I are

currently considering the feasibility of a U.S./U.K./Canadian conference
on Blologieal Effects of Atomic Weapons at Brookhaven about February

195.

Many of the same questions submitted in 1952, have been proposed

by the U.K. for the agenda of this conference,

I believe Dr. Bugher and

I are agreed (and the U.K. hae been informally advised) that the feasibility of discussing many of these questions on a classified (and fruitful) basis under the Technical Cooperation Program is quite remote. The
British have been advised also that some of the questions appear to be

of primary interest to the Military and would, therefore, not appear
suitable for disoussion at such a conference, I will keep the Commission

informed of our plans for this conference.
