I am sorry that these administrative problems Lecontefefe
Marshall Isiand Study have escalated to the point where they require youra
appearance at the Department of Energy to present the Brookhavel National

/6,

Laboratory position. I especially regret that this meeting comes hard on
the heels of your long, and I am sure tiring trip to Japan.
We have attempted to present all of the required documentation
concerning the critical elements of the logistic/programmatic conflict.
Please don't be alarmed by the volume of this collection of documents.
I have highlighted in yellow those statements that I feel are critical to
our position. However, I don't want to leave you open to the charge that
they are quoted "out of context" - so the whole document is included.
In addition, we have color-coded the critical documents in the following
manner.

COLOR

Ship - qualifications, operational characteristics, contract

negotiations - controlling impact on medical progress.

Nevada Operations Office (Roger Ray R.R.)- documentation of
