MR.

IMIRIE:

There is one thing that comes to my

mind, Dr. Bugher, and I have talked to Merril Eisenbud about
it, Harley and Dr, Dunning; there has been a question from
every survey group that went out as to what readings wereat

various points.

Of course, we all know what happened on

these readings.

In some cases there were uncalibrated instanc

et

and in other cases they were two feet from. the ground or thred
feet from the ground or near the water or under a "hot". It ig

there was an aerial survey taken which indicated a little

would tend to integrate the average dose on the entire island

as compared to searching out hot spots and cold spots.

14

for nothing else, it would give an inter-comparimn of

15

one island between another island or one atoll against another

16

atoll on an average integrated basis.

MR, HARLEY:

We have data here, for example, on

DR. DUNNING:

It is less than 5 per cent.

Yes, but I was out there

and the

first comparisons I made were between the air and the ground
and differed by a factor

as high as four.
