Why would the editor of the Atlantic --
-- I don't know. I think that he wanted things that would cause discussion. I think most of the critical matter me came Dr. Kenneth Endicott of the Cancer Institute who resented the fact that I said that 60 million dollars of contract funds should be reviewed by the Cancer Council when I was on the Cancer Council. I testified to a committee that appointed to review this matter very strongly in favor of review by that council of the or million dollars. If you're on a council and 50 or 60 million dollars is being spent by the same agency that you're supposed to be an advisor to, in a way that you don't knew anything about, you're not going to be able to give very good advice, don't you agree? It seems self evident, doesn't it? Well, this man is power drunk, unconcerned about human beings , really hates women and hated anybody like me who wanted to have anything done in an orderly fashion. So what's critical I can tell was either said by him or one of his henchmen. But the overall article is really contemptible, because it's unsynthesized, phony and poorly informed. But damaging.
That's certainly unfortunate. Is it possible now to have a truthful article?
