Dear Professor Lederberg:

I refer to my letter of September 13, 1969. Dr. Grumbach was apparently
mistaken both in the date and in the content of your article. I am now
informed that your article appeared on August 31, 1969, I refer to
Professor Gordon H. Ball's letter of May 12, 1967, in which he said:

"The existence of scientific papers from the Lawrence Radiation
Laboratory dealing with possible damage to the population from
low-level radiation such as may be produced from nuclear blasts
under the Plowshare Program was determined by the Committee on
University Welfare on the basis of material from that Laboratory."

Contrary to scientific procedure, Dr. Edwin MacMillan, Director of the
Lawrence Radiation Laboratory of the University of California, has refuses
to supply copies of those papers,

I would be grateful if you wouhd supply references to scientific papers
published by the Division of Biology and Medicine of the Lawrence Radiation
Laboratory dealing with the above matters. You may be aware of the fact
that Dr. Arthur Tamplin is Director of the Information Section of the
Division of Biology and Medicine of the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory.

A telephone call to him should clear the matter up,

Sincerely,

CO, CLiap.

C. D. Calsoyas
