Department of Interior has the basic responsibility for the

Trust Territories as Executive Agent although their interface
concerning Eniwetok with the Department of Defense is far from
clear.
Ambassador Wi'-> «w+
this matter.

ws the principle point of contact in

The AEC has responsibility for technical surveys and consequent
advice and recommendations on radiological matters.
The General Manager should be informed as to the situation.
The suggested course of action should be to inform Department

of Interior (Ambassador Williams) as to the situation and the
AEC plans regarding radiological surveys.
This information
should be accompanied by a request for advice as to national
policy and what action Interior proposes to carry out its
commitment to give over Eniwetok to the Trust Territory.
It appeared that this approach to Interior might be both in

a meeting and in writing.
