Mr. Benno Schmidt

Dear Mr. Schmidt:

I am sorry I have not been able to remain in
closer touch with the development of the new Cancer
programs, to which you have given so much effort, and
with such constructive results. Having gone so far,
we may now find that we differ on the formulation
of the best ways to carry the opportunity further;
but I realize that this problem exists only as a tes-
timonial to the remarkable advances so far.

In response to an urgent request from Senator
Nelson's office, I drafted the enclosed letter which

summarizes my views at the present time.

I hope that Mr. Quinn had forwarded some of my
previous statements, as I had asked him to do.

Yours sincerely,
