Comparing with the inhabitants of ‘xill

Island,
Sr is ‘counted 8 times to 20 times as much high ji
and
Cs is 10 times as much as high in her body. And the

Foes,

.

quantity of these elements in body had ingyeased from 1967
.
to 1969, of which I am very worried.
As
Sr is stored mostly
in bone, it is thinkable that it is some related cause to

sterility. 13%cs is accumulated in muscle.
Anyvay hoth
el@nents contain strong radioactivity, so they can surely effect
to human beings. I am afraid if she is discouraged too much
‘-when she is told the fact. Dear Mr. Ataji Balos, I hope you
encourage her not to be distressed spiritually.
I recomend
her to live on Majuro but not on Rongelap, because she had
better not to eat anymorg the food containing radioactivity.

- "Z hope all of them will recover their fine nealth as quickly
‘as possible. I am extremely sorry that I could not stay in your placa
and give them medical treatment."
