study ?
Mr. Trrrtii. Reports on this study are available. If you wish us to
supply you with those I am certain they can be supplied.
Representative Price. They should be supplied for the record.
Mr. Terri. Yes, sir.
(Reports of the St. Louis area study are on file with the Joint
Committee.)
Mv. Ramey. Wave any significant findings come out of those
reports ?
Mr. Trrriti. I would prefer, sir, to supply a summary to the committee. I may just give some offhand remark that would not stand
up on furtherreflection.
Representative Price. Do you want to make any comment on that
St. Louis report ?
Mr, Trerniun. I believe it would be in the best interests of the com-
mittee if I didn’t confuse the issue but provided the report and a
statement of the significant findings.
Representative Price. Thank you.
Me. Terriil is on the Panel and Y doubt he will have the information
before the Panel, but before the hearings are concluded.
Mr. Terrains, You can rely onit.
Representative Price. Vhaak you very much, Mr. Terrill. We
appreciate having your fine starement and valuable contribution to
the hearing.
My. Terrine. Thank you all.

Representative Price. The issuance to who? It has already been
leaked.
Mr. Territt. It may have been leaked but I am not familar with
how this was done and I am not familiar precisely with the length of
time it might take to have the report published. I umderstand that
everything is not issued whenit is leaked.
Representative Price. We attend many executive sessions on the
other committees of Congress, not so much on this one, and I am sure
that the leaks do not come from the committee. But by the time we
get to ouroffice we read the full account of the incident in the newspaper.
Representative Hosmer. Possibly the gentleman behind the witness
could elucidate for us.
Representative Pricer. But that is neither here nor there. Does the
report as far as you knowgive pertinentattention to the surveillance
program and countermeasures ¢
Mr. Trrritt. I would say the three basic things that it is concerned
with are surveillance, assessment and possible countermeasures and
some of the consequences of countermeasures. These things are not
exactly a one-way street. As Wright Langham pointed out, with
regard to the weaponstesting as a whole, it is not as simple as stopping
U.S. weapon testing when you are considering the national interest
and the lack of control over testing by other nations.
Representative Price. Mr. Ramey, do you have any question ?
Mr. Ramey. On page 11-5 of your statement you mention the St.
Louis study. Are reports available on the first two phases of the
