by individual ana title since their creation on August 17 of last year. 

 I have just received this and I would like to ask unanimous consent 

 that it be inserted in the record following- his statement, and the at- 

 tendance at each of the subsequent monthly meetings since that time 

 of the National Council. I think it is indicative of the high caliber of 

 the very top level of people who participate. 



I would not take the time to read it, but it is very interesting and 

 shows a continuing interest of people at the Cabinet level and their 

 technical advisers who also attended with them. It has very much 

 pleased me. Thank you very much. 



(The material referred to may be found on p. 14.) 



Mr. Lennon. Now the counsel will announce at this time the plans 

 for the continuation of the hearings by this subcommittee for the 

 record and for any help it might be to the members. 



My. Drewry. Mr. Chairman, in your opening statement at the begin- 

 ning of these hearings in August, you called attention to the fact that 

 it is our plan to proceed not only with the Council and the Commission, 

 but to receive testimony from the individual agencies of Government 

 involved, and later on, if time permits, hopefully to receive industry 

 testimony and other testimony from the private and public sector. 



Next week we have hearings scheduled from Tuesday through 

 Friday. On Tuesday, the 19th, the principal witness will be Rear Adm. 

 Odale Waters, the Oceanographer of the Navy, and we assume his 

 testimony will take the full morning session. 



Wednesday the Atomic Energy Commission will appear with Mr. 

 Arnold Joseph as principal witness. 



The Coast Guard will follow the AEC with the commandant, Adm. 

 Willard J. Smith. 



On Thursday, the 21st, Dr. Stanley Cain, Assistant Secretary of 

 the Interior, will appear followed by the Smithsonian Institution with 

 either Dr. Dillon Ripley, the Director, or Dr. Sidney R. Galler the 

 principal witness. 



And Friday, the 22d, Dr. Robert M. Wliite, the Administrator of 

 the Environmental Science Services Administration, to be followed by 

 Mr. Robert Abe, Director of the Sea Grant College program. 



Other witnesses who we could not fit in last week for one reason 

 or another include the State Department, Dr. Robert Frosch, As- 

 sistant Secretary for R. & D. of the Navy, AID, and the International 

 Science Foundation, who will be scheduled at later dates. 



Thank you, Mr. Chairman. 



Mr. Lennon. Thank you, Mr. Counsel, and Dr. Stratton and the 

 other members of the Commission. We understand you are here in 

 Washington usually one weekend out of the month for your hearings 

 and deliberations. We would like for you to know, sir, at any time the 

 Commission desires, we extend to you or any member of the Commis- 

 sion the invitation for an appearance on any particular matter you 

 feel like we ought to be advised of. If you will have your fine assistant, 

 Dr. Lawrence, simply call Mr. Drewry, arrangements will be made 

 accordingly. We will work it into our schedule. 



The hearings will now adjourn until next Tuesday morning at 10 

 o'clock. 



Thank you so much for your attendance. 



(Whereupon, the hearing adjourned at 12:05 p.m., to reconvene 

 Tuesday, September 19, 1967, at 10 a.m.)
