UR. EISENBUD:
We now come to the
discussion of the findings of the fallout
moderating program,
ZI don't need to give you too much
in the background because it was reported to
you previously.
This map illustrates the location
of our overseas stations end here we have the
location of the United States station.
This network hae been operating
since 1951 and to date we have accumulated
about a half million samples of information
that has been processed in that little room in which
you have been earlier this morning.
I will ask Dootor Harley to report
on the results on what we call our cumulative
fallout date up to date.
DRe HARLEY: Largely our problem
has been one of increasing nuclear activity
on the part of Russians and others as well as
our own and whereas formerly, we used to take
a large series of samples,that is daily samples
and analyse these for total Beta activity and.
calculate Various things we wanted to know, our
perspective has changed slightly.
