Re: In re "Agent Orange" Product
Dear Arv
In my letter to you of December 6, 1982 concerning defendants' requests for production cf certain documents described by Lester Miller during his deposition on November 9, 1982, I requested that the United States identify the title and source of the folder that contains the document from Batch 1933 referenced by microfilm frame number 253, a copy of which is enclosed for your reference.
It has recently come to my attention that this document includes additional pages which were not included in the Government's document production. In addition to the requested information concerning the title and source of the folder for that document, I would appreciate it if you would also furnish me with a complete copy o*f the entire document. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Very truly yours

Re : Agent Grange Litigation
Dear Arvin:
During the course of the deposition of General Fred Delmore on February 2, 1983, the witness testified that he presented a classified paper on the use of herbicides at the meeting held to discuss and evaluate the toxicity of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T compounds at Edgewood Arsenal on April 26, 1963. The defendants hereby reiterate their request made at General Delmore1s deposition for production of that classified paper.
In addition, General Delmore testified that he was a member of the Chemical Corps Board. The defendants similarly request production of the minutes of meetings of the Chemical Corps Board relating to dioxin, 2,4,5-T, Agent Purple, Agent Orange or the Hoffmann Trip Report for the period 1955-1970 and any documents in the custody or control of the Chemical Corps Board relating to the same.

NOTICE TO ALL COUNSEL
Re: In re "Agent Orange" Product Liability Litication, MDL No. 381
This Notice provides an update on the status of several outstanding document requests as well as recent document pro duction bv the United States:
1. October 1, 1982 Request for Documents In Connection with Deposition of Dr. William 3. Ennis. On October 22, 1982 this office forwarded this re quest to our agency counsel at U.S.D.A. V5e have received a response from that agency. After extensive consultation with both Dr. Warren Shaw and Dr. Ennis, the agency has stated that the following documents either previously have been produced or are not available from the agency's files:
a. Each document in the possession, custody, or control of the United States Department of Agruculture that (a) mentions chloracne or any polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin or both, and (b) was prepared in 1969 or earlier.
b. Each document in the possession, custody, or control of Dr. Ennis that (a) mentions chloracne or any polychlorinated dibenzo-pdioxin and (b) was published or prepared in 1969 or earlier.
\
-2 -
c. If not included in the production in response to "1" or "2" above, such records of the United States Department of Agriculture of Agriculture as identify (a) the books, papers and articles in the papers and articles in the poss esses of the United States Deparment of Agriculture between January 1, 1960 and December 31, 1969, that mention or discuss either chloracne or any polychlor inated dibenzo-p-dioxin, or both and (b) the date of acquisition of each such book paper, or article.
d. Each document listed as an attach ment to the Memorandum of a meeting with representatives of USIA, dated March 12, 1965. This memorandum identifies the attachments as follows:
Letter from A.O. Bundy, USIA, to W.A. Godel, ARPA, DOD, March 12, 19 63 ;
Letter from W.A. Godel to W.C. Shaw, ARS, USD, March 15, 1963; Vegetation Control Chemicals Used Extensively in USA, by Mary A.. Sanders, USIA, Far East Desk, from information supplied by W.C. Shaw and W.B. Ennis, Jr.
Memorandum from W.C. Shaw to Mary H. Sanders, March 20, 1963, clearing Item 3 for technical accuracy.
e- Each document in the possession, custody, or control of the United States Department of Agriculture that mentions a meeting between industry, United States Department of Agriculture, and Food and Drug Administration representatives on November 6 and 7, 1969.
f. Each document in the' possession, custody, or control of Dr. Ennis that mentions a meeting between
/ 9389

industry, United States Department of Agriculture, and Food and Drug Administration November 6 and 7, 1969.
g. Each document in the possession, custody, or control of the United States Department of Agriculture that mentions a meeting of govern ment representatives called by Dr. Lee A. DuBridae on October 28, 1969.
h. Each document in the possession, custody, or control of Dr. Ennis that mentions a meeting of govern ment representatives called by Dr. Lee A. DuBridge on October 28, 1969.
2. June 18, 1982 Reminder from M. Gordon Concerning USDA. The Soil Conservation Service, Forest Service and Animal & Plant Health Inspection Service all report that either they have previously produced all documents concerning the subject matter-in this lawsuit or they do not have any such documents in their files.
3. January 13, 1983 Document Request from L. Rivkin re Acent Pink, Green and Purole Contracts. Mr. Rivkin requested production of all contracts between the United States and Dow concerning Agents Purple, Pink and Green. On January 21, 1983 this office transmitted the request to the Departments of Defense and Comm erce. With the 'responses of those Departments, the United States has com pleted its efforts in response to this request.
a. The Department of Commerce has com pleted its search, but has not found any responsive documents. Commerce's centralized procurement office re quires all that contracts be listed with that Office. The Office of Pro curement has maintained that system since the early 1960s. Commerce states that there is no evidence that
3870
-4 -
Commerce ever awarded such a contract. The National Bureau of Standards also could not locate any contracts. The only other agency with any remote connection to the request's subject matter is the International Trade Administration (Office of Industrial Resource Allocation). However, that office merely performs certain Defense Production Act functions and does not award contracts. Since the central repository, the Office of Procurement, had no record of any agreements, it is highly unlikely that the Office of IRA would have any such agreements. No other agency within Commerce has any remote connection with chemical contratcs.
b. The Department of Defense (DOD) also has completed its search for responsive documents. Mr. William Fenner testified that contracts were archived in Maryland. Mr. Fenner confirmed by telephone that he meant the Washington National Records Center in Suitland, Maryland. The Records Center has informed DOD that, in the normal course, it only retains contracts for six years and any earlier contracts were destroyed.
The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) offices also searched for the contracts, but could not locate any copies. DLA did find the following contract numbers for Agents Orange and Purple although the files had previously been destroyed:
Agent Purple
DA-30-070-CML-1636 DA-30-070-AMC-99{A ) NY3-168 5
November 1961 December 5, 1962

The Defense General Supply Center in in Richmond, VA found a 1968 contract for Agent Orange produced by Hercules, Inc. This office has sent that document fo.r microfilming as Batch No. 1967, entitled "Agent Orange Contract with Hercules, Inc. - 1968".
DOD also contacted the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals. Of the two Dow cases on record, one did not involve herbicides and the file for the other had been destroyed. The latter case came out of the Defense Contract' Administration office in Detroit and may have involved the Dow Midland plant. The available information indicated it involved a 1969-1971 contract.
No other DOD agencies were reasonably likely to have these documents within their files.
Footnote Material From Ooeration Ranch Hand
On February 23, 1983 the Air Force transmitted to this office a list of classified documents that Major Buckingham may have referenced in Operation Ranch Hand. Declassifi cation of these documents which do not refer or relate to the specifi cations, composition or toxicity, of phenoxy herbicides or to dioxin will take at least 90 days. The Air Force has been unable to identify the originators of some 300 documents which will consid erably slow down the declassification process. We have sent the list for microfilming as Batch No. 1970, entitled "Classified Buckingham Footnote Material unrelated to Specs, or Toxicity."
V.
-6 -
b. In addition, while compiling the list of classified documents, the Air Force discovered some additional unclassified documents relied upon by Major Buckingham in Operation Ranch Hand. We have sent these documents for microfilming as Batch No. 1971, entitled "Addi tional Unclassified Ranch Har. 5 Material."
5. January 4, 1983 Recuest from L. LaPointe, Dow Chemical Co. Although this request emanated from Dow itself, the United States has viewed this request as a dis covery request in this action. In this letter, Dow requested information concer ning the role of a Government Inspector as it applies to Dow's government con tracts for Agents Orange and White.
DOD has provided a copy of a position description for a Quality Assurance Specialist (Chemicals), GS-1910-11 dated February 25, 1977. No position description exists for the time frame requested by Dow. The duties, however, have net appreciably changed anc the description provided is representative of the duties during the period in question.
DOD also has provided a copy of Defense Acquisition Regulation Section XIV which outlines the contractor and Government's responsibilities regarding product quality. To sort out the role of the Government In spector, the terms and conditions of the contracts involved must be considered. In addition, MIL-I-4-5208, Inspector System Requirement, and MIL-Q-9858, Quality Pro gram Requirement are available from the Naval Publication Center, 5801 Tabor Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19120.
We have sent the documents provided to us by DOD filming as Batch No. 1966, entitled "Response to Dow's Request
v
-7 -
Re Air Force Product Ouality Assurance Responsibi1ity." In addition, we have attached the Government's response to Dow's request.
6. Army Document Production re Messrs. Sim, Killer, Cox, Callahan and Other Matters. On February 9, 1983 the Army transmitted to this office some new docu ment production. Some of the production relates to depositions and includes Robert Cox's four notebooks that served as his daily journals while employed at Edgewood A.rsenal. This material was sent for microfilming at Batch No. 1568, entitled "Follow-up Production: Sim, Miller, Cox, Callahan depositions and CSL New Find."
7. October 6, 1982 Request from L. Bennett re Dr. Aveiling. By letter to this office dated February 9, 1983 the Army has indicated that it will complete its search for the requested documents by the end of the month.
8. December 6, 1982 Recuest from S. Pierce re Mr. Vocci. By letter to this office dated February 9, 1983 the Army has indicated that it will complete its search for the requested documents by the end of the month.

Re: In re "Agent Orange" Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 381
This Notice responds to Alan White's February 7, 1983 request for production of documents by the United States. Mr. White's request had two parts. The first dealt with the records of Perrine Primate Research Laboratory (Perrine) and the second dealt with the records of the Advanced Research Products Agency (ARPA). The response from the pertinent agencies follows:
1. Perrine: Mr. White requested any documents from Perrine "relating to dioxin, including any research by Perrine, any documents relating to the storage of dioxin at Perrine, and any requests from outside agencies for a sample or dioxin."
As suggested by Dr. Ross, EPA contacted the Health Effects Research Laboratory at Research Triangle Park, NC and the Environmental Monitoring Systems Laboratory at Las Vegas, NV about the records they inherited from Perrine. Neither of those facilities were able to locate any records concerning dioxin that were carried over from the repository activities of Perrine. Any responsive records of Dr. Courtney resulting from her tenure at Perrine were among the records made available for inspection by the parties on January 19, 1983. EPA has not provided copies of raw data (strip recorder charts) from the laboratory at Research Triangle Park. If the parties wish to inspect these records, EPA will make them available on site.
Other EPA facilities did locate some responsive material dating generally from 1973 and 1974. We have sent these documents for microfilming at Batch No. 1981, entitled "EPA Response to Request for Perrine Primate Research Lab. Documents."
-2 -
For the information of counsel/ contrary to Dr. Ross' testimony, apparently Perrine did not store or distribute any dioxins prior to 1973. This information comes from the Chemistry Branch Chief and Deputy Director of Perrine during the years 1966 to 1973 who had responsibility for the operation of the Pesticide Repository.
2. ARPA; Mr. White requested that ARPA produce any responsive documents not previously produced that pertain to issues in this litigation. On February 25, 1983 the United States sent out a Notice to All Counsel announcing the discovery of a variety of responsive documents by ARPA. The United States has sent those documents for microfilming as Batch No. 1972, entitled "Unclassified Documents Prepared by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency," and Batch No. 1973, entitled Unclassified Herbicide Documents in the Possession of DARPA."

Re: In re "Agent Orange"Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 381
Dear Arvin:
At the March 7, 1983 pre-trial conference in Uniondale we received the Government's Notice to All Counsel concerning alterations that were made to certain documents produced from Edgewood prior to their production. While defendants appreciate your attempt to compile the available information for the four CS compounds in question, in at least two important respects your response is incomplete.
First, in my letter to you of November 233 1982, I expressed particular interest in "Compound B"-(CS 125^13) and requested all documents referring or relating to that compound, including relevant pages from the Industry Liaison Office's Commercial Source Sample Record Log. As you know, there has been ample deposition testimony by present and former Edgewood personnel that for each chemical compound assigned a new CS number, an entry was made in that Log which set forth, among other information, the name of the source for that compound, the employee in the Chemical or Biological Laboratory who requested a sample of that compound, the date that request was made, and the date the recuested samole was received. For unexplained
Arvin Maskin, Esc.
2- - March Hi, 1983
reasons, no excerpt from the Commercial Source Sample Record Log for CS 125*113 was furnished or mentioned in your March 7 Notice. Accordingly, we would appreciate receiving a copy of each page from the Log concerning that compound as soon as possible.
Secondly, based on our prior discussions it had been my understanding that the identity of the sources who submitted CS 125*413 and CS 66*422 to the ILO for consideration would be .disclosecL.as .part of your response to our request for information concerning the altered Edgewood documents. That information is obviously essential to us in determining the extent of the knowledge obtained by Edgewood concerning those dioxin compounds. If you believe that information is protected from disclosure by some Govern ment claim of privilege, please assert that claim immediately so that it may be resolved in accordance with the Special Master's recommended procedures for deciding such claims.
Thank you for your continuing assistance in answering the many questions that have arisen in connection with the Edgewood document production.
Very truly yours,
MMG/mam BY EXPRESS MAIL

During the deposition of Dr. Francis William Morthland on February 23, 1983, the witness testified that he pre pared handwritten notes during, and subsequently prepared a written report of, the meeting held to discuss and evaluate the toxicity of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T compounds at Edgewood Arsenal on April 26, 1963. The witness also testified that he pre pared handwritten notes at, and may subsequently have pre pared a written report of, the meeting of the President's Science Advisory Committee on May 9, 1963. The defendants hereby request production of all such documents.
In addition, Dr..

NOTICE TO ALL COUNSEL
Re: In Re "Agent Orange" Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 381
This Notice confirms information that Mr. Maskin conveyed to the parties on the record at the March 28, 1983 hearing before Special Master Schreiber. At that hearing, Mr. Maskin gave the United States' response to the defendants' request for reconstruction of the distribution list of the Hoffman Report. In addition, this Notice responds to Mr. Gordon's request for additional information concerning certain CS compounds.
Hoffman Distribution List. As reauested bv Dow the United States has reconstructed the distribution list for the Hoffman Report by matching names with the positions listed on the Report's distribution list. The names given consist of the people who held the positions as of October 5, 1959, the date of the Hoffman Report. In two instances, the Army also has listed a second name where a new person assumed a position shortly after the date of the Report. In two other instances, the Army also has listed the civilian counter part of the military officer holding the position. The parties should note that, although civilian employees typically would have a long tenure with the institution, military personnel would not.
The United States would like to point out that, despite defendants' insistence that they have no information that could have assisted the United States in assembling this list, the defendants apparently have deposed four of the people named on the list. In addition, a fifth apparently went to work for Dow following his retirement from the military.
9882
-2 -
The distribution list with the names listed next to the corresponding numbers from the distribution list attached to the Hoffman Reoort follows:
11-13
Brigadier General (3G) Graydon C. Essman BG Fred J. Delmore assumed command in
January 1960
14 Colonel Roy W. Muth
15 Colonel Charles H. McNary
16 Colonel Donald E. Yanka
17 Dr. Seymor D. Silver
18 Colonel David Armitage
19 Colonel Donald G. Grothaus Colonel Laverne A. Parks assumed command in December 1959 Scientific Director Riley D. Housewright
20 William H. Summerson
21 Mr. Saul Hormats
22 Lieutenant Colonel Douglas Lindsay Deputy Director Dr. Van Sim
24 Dr. Friedrich W. Hoffman
2. Commercial Source Compounds. On March 14, 1983 Mr. Gordon made some additional requests for information con cerning certain Commercial Source compounds that have been the subject of considerable correspondence between the United States and Mr. Gordon.
First, Mr. Gordon requested production of all Industrial Liaison Office Commerical Source Sample Record Log for compound 125413. The Army has informed us that compound 125413 is not a "CS" compound. It is a proprietary chemical tested under a separate contract. Consequently, no Commerical Source Sample Record Log exists for this compound.
Second, although the United States has no record of a request for the names of the sources for compounds 125413 and CS66422, from the defendants other than Mr. Gordon's March 14
3883
-3 -
letter and a recent request at a hearing, the A m y is seeking permission from the source to release the names of the sources. We will provide this information to the parties as soon as the companies involved grant permission for release.
As always, if you have any questions, please call either of us.

Re: In re "Agent Orange" Product Liability Litigation, MDL No. 381
Dear Arvin:
During the deposition of William H. Summerson on March 22, 1983, the witness testified he had in his personal files copies of all correspondence that he sent or received during his term at Edgewood Arsenal. The defendants hereby reiterate their request made at Dr. Summerson's deposition for production of that portion of Dr. Summerson's correspon dence that is responsive to Defendants' Phase I First Wave Interrogatories, dated January 15, 1981, or to the subpoena to the United States Army Chemical Systems Laboratory, dated May 17, 1982.
In addition, Dr. Summerson testified that he prepared a trip report for General Delmore's office concerning Summerson1s trip to Viet Nam in the mid-1960's. Defendants similarly request production of that trip report.

The need for these additions], depositions has been occasioned by the sudden shift in emphasis on government discovery by DOW and the other corporate defendant war contractors* The plaintiff veterans now intend to establish through the testimony of the DOW Executives named the relationships which existed between the top management of DOW and Government Executives in the Department of Defense Federal Regulatory Agencies such as the Food and Drus Administration and the Department of ASriculture? and the Executive Offices of the President of the United States.
11-- sho 1.1].d oome as no surp rise that the p 1aintiff veterans contend that not only did the corporate defendant war contractors which include The Dow Chemical Company withhold information from the Dep a rtment of Defense du rins the V :i.et Nain Wa r and the EF'A <and USDA and the Veterans Administration after the war but that contacts between executives of Dow and high level federal officials occurred at which DOW executives could have and should have informed the high level decision makers in government about the hazards associated with exposure to TCDD contaminated products? but that in fact no such disclosures were ever made. The plaintiff veterans also intend to establish that active concealment and misrepresentation about the hazards associated with exposure to dioxin contaminated products continues today*

The need for these additional depositions has been occasioned by the sudden shift in emphasis on government discovery by your client and the other e u iTur <:il.<v do I'ui id<;m L war cont rioto rs . The plaintiff veterans now intend to (establish through the testimony of the Monsanto Executives named the relationships which existed between the top management of Monsanto and Government Executives -in the- Department of Defense* Federal RedulatoryAdeneies such as the Food and Drud Administration and the Department of Agriculture? and the Executive Offices of the President of the United States
It should come as no surprise that the plaintiff veterans contend that not only did the corporate defendant war contractors which include Monsanto Company withhold information from the Department of Defense durind the Viet Nam War and the EPA and USDA and the Veterans Administration after the war? but that contacts between executives of Monsanto and hidh level federal officials occurred at which Monsanto e x e c u t i v e s could have and should have in ('n rmcd the hi ah level decision makers in government about the hazards associated with exposure to TCDD contaminated products? but that in fact no such disclosures were ever made* The plaintiff veterans also intend to establish that active concealment and misrepresentation about the hazards .associated with exposure to dioxin Contaminated products continues today*
It seems disindenous at best for Townley X Updike to complain about 7 additional depositions of Monsanto employees when Monsanto and the other corporate defendants have noticed over 60 depositions of government witnesses at this time? with the threat of at least that many more. To complain that Townley X Updike would have to review "thousands of pages of Monsanto documents" seems to imply that you have not reviewed the Monsanto Company documents before this date* That? of course? can not be the case based on you r assurance to the Court that you made diliaent production of all documents* The Monsanto argument neatly overlooks their late production of some reasonably significant documents less than two weeks ado that were "overlooked*"
We are somewhat surprised at why it reauires three or more days on the part of two lawyers at Townley X Updike to conduct a deposition of a client employee* It also appears somewhat ludicrous for Townley X Updike -- a not inconsequential law firm-- and Monsanto Company .a Fortune 500 corporation-- supported as they both are by competent in-house counsel to complain about the additional burden that 7 depositions will occasion yet isnore the

<? /'
INTRODUCTION
The defendants have presented their argument in a manner that makes it appear that the plaintiffs have failed to carry their burden of proof in government contractor defense.
This Memorandum furnishes an overview of the separate submissions by the plaintiffs which rebut the Motions for Summary Judgment filed by several of the corporate defendants. Each of those memoranda demonstrates that summary judgment is inappropriate in the context of the hotly contested factual issues in this case. Where there is even the slightest doubt as to whether there is a factual issue to be decided, summary judgment is inappropriate. Dean Construction Co. v. Simonetta Concrete Construction Co., 37 FRD 242 (S.D.N.Y. 1965).
When one considers that this is not the situation, but rather that defendants carry the burden of proof on the motion of summary judgment on the various elements of the government contract defense, the defendants' motions for summary judgment border on the frivolous. Nonetheless, the motions have been made, and the plaintiffs believe that the opportunity for setting the record straight should not be lost.
The defendants have mischaracterized and understated the
scope of their own knowledge of the dangers associated with the
manufacture and use of Agent Orange. They have similarly sought to
create an impression about the scope and depth of government knowledge
which is false and misleading. The gulf between the knowledge
available to the herbicide manufacturers -- the mountain of data,
expertise and interpretive capacity which so peculiarly was the
province of the chemical industry-- and that available to the
goverment is so great that there is much to be said for the
proposition that the court should consider a cross-motion for summary
judgment by the Plaintiffs.
S28
We begin by reiterating that the government contract defense requires that defendants establish four elements. See, In Re Agent Orange Product Liability Litigation, 534 F. Supp. 1046, 1055 (E.D.N.Y. 1982):
1. That the defendant supplied the herbicides pursuant to a contract with the goverment;
2. That the government established the specifications for the herbicides;
3. That the herbicides met the government's specifications in all material respects; and
4. That the government knew as much as or more than the defendant about the hazards to people that accompanies the use of the herbicides.*
Behind the formal requisites of the defense lies a premise which is central to this case and important to the motions under discussion. The words are those of Judge Pratt;
Public policy does require, however that the military's decisions on those vital questions should at least be made on
the basis of the readily available information. A supplier should not be insulated from liability for damages that would never have occurred if the military had been apprised of hazards known to the supplier. A supplier, therefore, has a duty to inform the miltary of known risks attendant to a particular weapon that it supplies, so as to provide the military with at least an opportunity fairly to balance the weapon's risks and benefits.
The plaintiff veterans have contended throughout that Judge
Pratt has placed a duty on the supplier to assist in making of the
military to whom the material was supplied, as informed and rational a
decision-maker as is possible under the circumstances. See,
Plaintiffs' Memorandum of Law 8 June 1982. Thus, we are not involved
in a game to determine whether a thin slice of information or data
which might have touched some aspect of the "Agent Orange" question
found its way into the government. The question is, did the
government become as informed a decision-maker as they could have been
had the chemical company defendants shared their broad base of
industrial information.
SB 29
The corporate defendants proceed as if the question was whether the deployment of Agent Orange as a chemical defoliant in Viet Nam was a reasonable decision. The thrust of the goverment contractor immunity defense is that the decision belonged not to the defendants, but to the government. The only question is, did the government have the knowledge, data, and sophistication available to the defendants. We submit that no fair reading of the record will support such a conclusion. Worse yet, the evidence demonstrates mis-statements, half-truths, misrepresentations, falsifications, and an outright conspiracy to deprive the government of the information and to divert them from independently discovering the broad range of risks and methods to avoid them.
In attempting to evaluate the kinds of information which should have been shared with the government or "what kind of information would a rational government decision-maker have wanted to know," it is important that some attention be given to the scope of the defoliation program in Vietnam. This was not a simple weed-killing project. It was the largest defoliation program in the history of man. Huge amounts of defoliant were to be sprayed, heavy concentrations of defoliant were to be used, hundreds of thousands of humans were to come in contact with the defoliant. In this context, if the question is asked how forthcoming about risks, hazards, and risk reduction alternatives should the defendant companies have been or alternatively, how much information would a rational government decision-maker have wanted to have before making the decision to proceed with the defoliation project? The answer is clear. The corporate defendants should have shared all they knew or suspected about the hazards and all they knew about reducing such hazards. The government was entitled to the full dioxin story. Thus, for every government witness that the defendant war contractors would claim had "knowledge," the triable issues are knowledge of what?
1 - Did the government witness know of the existence of "Agent Orange?"
2. If the government witness knew of the existence of "Agent Orange," did the witness know that 2,4,5-T was part of "Agent
27--APR --
PT.ATMTTi'PQ 1 nDTTTTP nH cnurDHMmwir tr*T/*st.TT r'rs/^TT
Orange?"
3. Did the government witness know the results of animal tests establishing the dramatic toxicity of dioxin?
4. Did the government witness know anything about the industrial accidents and/or process problems and/or injuries?
*
5. Did the government witness know the extent of the cleanup problems associated with each such accident or "problem"?
6 . Did the government witness know about the precautions workers were required to take in the clean up process such as the need to wear protective gloves, suits, masks, etc.?
7. Did the government witness know of any of the human
health hazards associated with exposure to
2,3,7,8 -tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD or "Dioxin".)
contaminated products such as 2 ,4,5-trichloro phenoxyacetic
*In particular was the witness aware of the following
facts: (a) In 1937, approximately 400 lumber workers
using Dowicide H, a chlorinated phenol, developed, among
other illnesses, comedones, cysts and pustules
(chloracne), urinary disturbances, skin lesions lasting
seven years and. marked hyperkeratosis (corneal
overgrowth); (b) In 1937, approximately 21 workers at a
Dow plant which manufactured chlorinated phenols,
developed the same symptoms as the 400 lumber workers;
(c) In 1949, approximately 10 workers were exposed to
dioxin in the manufacture of 2,4,5-TCP at Nordheim, W.
Fahlen and some developed neuralgic pains, heart
disorders and chloracne; (d) In 1949, approximately 117
workers were exposed to dioxin in the manufacture of
2,4,5-T, at a Monsanto plant in Nitro, West Virginia and
approximately 228 members of their family, as well as
medical personnel dealing with the exposed workers, and
some of them developed chloracne, and showed evidence of
liver damage; (e) In 1954, approximately 31 workers at a
C. H. Boehringer Sohn plant were exposed to dioxin in
the manufacture of 2,4,5-TCP and 2,4,5-T. Some of them
developed liver damage and chloracne; (f) In 1956,
approximately 29 workers in a Diamond Alkali (now
Diamond Shamrock) plant were exposed to dioxin during
the manufacture of 2,4,5-T and some of those exposed
developed porphyria cutanea tarda, hyperpigmentation,
and hirsutism; (g) In 1964, over 40 workers in a Dow
plant in Midland, Michigan were exposed to dioxin in the
manufacture of 2,4,5-T, and some of them developed
chloracne and complaints of tiredness, weakness, and
depression with some reduction in hemoglobin and red
cell counts. Some workers with metaplastic changes were
examined.

acid (2,4,5-T) and its esters? In particular was the witness aware of systemic physiological effects such as
(a) chloracne? (b) liver damage? (c) cancer? (d) teratogenicity?
8 . Did the government witness know that Agent Orange was contaminated with dioxin and was the witness aware of the extent of such contamination?
9. Did the government witness know anything about 2,3,7,8 -tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD or "Dioxin")?
10. Did the government witness know anything about the analytical methods for detecting dioxin contamination in commercial products such as 2 ,4 ,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its esters?
11. Was the government witness aware of the scope, nature, and reliability of defendants' analytical procedures and quality control practices?
12. Did the government witness know anything about other processes available to reduce or avoid the hazards-- risk reduction techniques?
One must also determine just how remote was the government witness from the military or the central decision-making process.
In order to complete our inquiry into the balance of knowledge and to establish the truly awesome disparity of knowledge between the corporate defendant war contractors on the one side and the United States military, we must address these seLf-same questions to the corporate defendant chemcial companies. It should come as no surprise that what we have discovered is that the corporate defendants had substantial knowledge of all of the above questions.
The corporate defendant war contractors were masters of the chemical manufacturing arts. They were the primary source of all the information about their phenoxy herbicides, in particular, 2 4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5-T) and its contaminant the deadly dioxin, 2,3,7,8 -tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). Instead of
turning that information over to responsible and authoritative; S 8 3 2
/ government decision-makers in a focused and coherent fashion, they obfuscated, misled, misrepresented, and conspired to hide the full extent of the danger from the government. They seek now to hide behind the tattered bits and pieces of data scattered throughout government bureaucracy and the hints of concern in a few obscure publications of extremely limited circulation to establish their defense. Their effort is disingenuous and their dissembling outrageous given the state of the record.

The individual briefs set forth in great detail the scope of the knowledge of the defendant Chemical Companies with regard to the knowledge of dioxin contamination of 2,4,5-T, the analytical methods of detecting contamination, the risk-reduction method which could have been utilized and the potential health hazards associated with exposure to dioxin. Although, the knowledge varied somewhat from defendant to defendant, the body of knowledge available in the chemical industry was substantial. Much of it can be characterized as frightening.
It is important, however, to note that the government contract defense does not provide a license for willful ignorance of the state of the art or the state of industry knowledge. What Judge Pratt said with regard to the duty to inform is not inconsistent with this proposition. Thus, Judge Pratt notes that:
"Public policy does require...that the military's decisions on those vital questions should at least be made on the basis of the readily available information..... (emphasis added)
He notes that:
[T]his principle would not impose upon a supplier any duty of testing that was included in the specifications.
The thrust of Judge Pratt's remarks is clear given the context of his opinion- Rightfully concerned that military suppliers have no independent duty to "advance the state of the art," he specifically frees them from an independent duty to tests not included in the specification. But, chemical companies that manufacture compounds with toxic qualities cannot be given blanket license to be ignorant of "readily available" knowledge. Cases are legion that hold
9934experts to the state of the art in the field in which they are expert
and rightfully have imputed to them the technology, knowledge, and
/ /
/'
literature available of the art in the filed. See eg.
Wright v. Carter Products, Inc., 244 F.2nd 53, 57 (1957); Braun v. Roux Distributing Co., 312 S.W. 2d 758, 763 (MO 1958); 2 Harper & James, Torts Section 28.4, p. 1541; 2 Wigmore, Evidence Section 665(b) p. 784.
To conclude' otherwise would lead to the result that chemical companies that were either ignorant or indolent are to be singled out for special reward. "See no evil - hear no evil" is hardly a posture to be encouraged by this Court. Defendant manufacturers were not producing sugar-coated lollipops. They may be charged with the knowledge of the industry lituerature if they were to engage in the manufacture of dangerous chemical compounds. Since, as we demonstrate government as a non-expert purchaser did not have that knowledge, the imbalance of knowledge remains significant.
Whatever, the final resolution of this question, the presence of significant industry knowledge makes it wholly inappropriate for a claim of ignorance to support a motion for summary judgment.(1) The difference between "known" and "should have known" is a very slender thread. Certainly defendants who bear the burden of proof cannot, in the face of substantial industry knowledge(2 ), argue that as a matter of established fact they did not know. A jury should be free to conclude that they did, in fact, know what was available through the industry.

the k n o w l e d g e of government officials was inferior to that of the de f e n d a n t chemical companies
Having demonstrated in the individual briefs, the pervasiveness of the knowledge of the Chemical Companies with regard to all aspects of the Agent Orange problem, and the literal stranglehold that the companies had over the informational network, it ia hardly worth taking the Court's time with substantial rebuttal of the defense that the military decision-makers had parity of knowledge with the chemical companies.
Nonetheless, it is worthwhile to sample from the rather elaborately set table which the defendants have spread before this court. Again the results are hardly surprising. The defendants have picked and gleaned to create a mirage. It should be given short shrift by this court.
Dr. Charles E. Minarek.
The defendants, for example, spend considerable time on the testimony of Dr. Charles E. Minarek. One is struck by the vagueness of any knowledge that he did have and the many areas in which he had no knowledge whatsoever.
Several examples will demonstrate the point. Dr. Minarek had heard about teratogenicity problems associated with 2,4,5-T and he called Keith Barrons at Dow Chemical Co. to ask whether they had any knowledge of the problem. Dr. Minarek testified:
With regard to risk-reduction techniques, minaier. that he had no knowledge that manufacturing procedures could lower the dioxin ;S,content i5 0 f theiS.final product until the Dow meeting with the Department of Defense in 1970. " He "similarly w as unaw are .t h a t ^ T ie r a ^ ^ ^ ^ ^--.M

were varying levels of dioxin contaminations among the manufacturers. All chemical companies represented at the 1965
Midland Dow meetings were aware of these facts.
Not only was Dr. Minarek unaware of risk reduction
techniques, but he was unaware of the dioxin contamination of Agent
Orange.
In fact, he had not heard of dioxin
until 1970.
Dr. Minaj._\ ./as aware of one of the incidents of chloracne at
a Dow plant in 1964,
but was unaware that both
Monsanto and Diamond Alkalai had similar incidents. Even the
testimony as to Dr. Minarek's supposed belief in the safety of 2,4,5-T
at 1 ppm in 1970 is vague at very best.
When one considers that Dr. Minarek was most probably not privy to Dow's own concern that repeated exposure at one part per million may be dangerous, thus it becomes clear that little is left from the Minarek testimony. He is a vague, uncertain witness, at best ignorant of substantial areas of hazard and risk. Yet, the defendants target him as crucial to the decision-making process. If he was at the vortex of decision making (a proposition plaintiffs severely question) he hardly had the knowledge which can place him in equipoise with the chemical company defendants.
When one turns to other government witnesses the pattern repeats itself, many witnesses knew nothing about or had no interest or concern with dioxin or its harmful effects (See, Bushey, Metcalf, Buckley, Higgenbotham, and Sim). Others did not know that 2,4,5-T was contaminated with dioxin or was hazardous (See, Cox, Higgenbotham, Horton, Summers, Stone, Irish, Melvin, and Housewright). Still others did not know that 2,4,5-T was being used in Viet Nam or did not hear of it until long after defendants supplied their herbicide to the military (See, Buckley, Higgenbotham, Simmons, Courtney, and Housewright). Some government witnesses did not know of any .causal link between 2,4,5-T and chloracne or any other injury (See,
//
Birmingham, Stokinger, and Higgenbotham) /
A large number of witnesses found out about 2,4,5-T or dioxin long after the defendants supplied the contaminated herbicide to the military (See, Minarek, Firestone, Anderson, DuBridge, Bradley, Eckhaus, Falkener, Shead, Shaw, Callahan, Courtney, Irish, Housewright, and Delmore). Several witnesses who had some research effort with regard to 2,4,5-T or dioxin never completed their work nor had their findings verified (See, Bates, Lawton, Groth). Finally and most important, none of the government witnesses had any knowledge with regard to risk-reduction techniques that could reduce dioxin content.
High Level Government Witnesses Uniformly Were Unaware of the Toxicity of Agent Orange
High level government witnesses were uniformly unaware of the toxicity of Agent Orange.
1. Paul C. Warnke became Assistant Secretary of Defense for Internal Security Affairs under President Lyndon B. Johnson. He reported only to Secretary of Defense McNamara and, in his opinion, the decision to deploy herbicides in Southeast Asia was made by President John F. Kennedy. In his discussions with Secretary McNamara he never heard any coversation about the defoliation program presenting a hazard to human beings, and was never advised of any meeting held by the Dow Chemical Company in Midland, Michigan in 1965.
Mr. Warnke never received any notice from any agency or subdivision thereof during his tenure in office that a possible health hazard could accompany the use of Agent Orange. Mr. Warnke had no recollection of the issue of alleged toxicity of herbicide orange ever being raised at the Cabinet level.
2. Harold Brown was appointed by President John F. Kennedy to be Director of Defense, Research and Engineering and commenced his duties in May of 1961. He held this position until the end of
27-APR-83 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE oaae 12
S e p t e m b e r , 1965, at which time he became Secretary of the Air Force until the middle of February, 1969. He was then appointed Secretary of Defense by Jimmy Carter in 1977 until January of 1981.
from the beginning of the defoliation program, the material sprayed was considered to be ordinary weed killer much used in the United States and elsewhere, and the only question of toxicity was the concern that the Viet Cong and the Soviets were alleging that the United States was utilizing chemical warfare.
Mr. Brown
belief during his tenure
of office was that the spray was not harmful to the livestock or to
humans, and it was his personal belief in 1961 that the material being
deployed was harmless as far as human beings were concerned. Mr.
Brown was of the opinion that President John F. Kennedy personally
made the decision to deploy herbicides in Southeast Asia, and he
personally further believed that Defense Secretary McNamara shared his
understanding that the herbicides sprayed were harmless.
that even after he heard reports from the Viet Cong that the
spray was toxic it did not change his opinion that the material was
not toxic.
Former Defense Secretary Brown
based on his
conversations with former Defense Secretary McNamara, it was
consistent to assume that the late President Kennedy also believed the
materials deployed in Southeast Asia were non-toxic.
Mr. Brown first heard the term "dioxin" after he left the government in 1969.
3. Robert F. McNamara was Secretary of Defense under President Kennedy from January of 1961 to March 1, 1968.
at the time the defoliation program was requested by President Diem of Viet Nam he believed the agents to be deployed were non-toxic. Further, both Secretary of State Rusk and President Kennedy, as well
y

as himself, were quite sensitive to the impact of the military operations on the lives of both American troops and the enemy. Secretary McNamara buttressed the fact that President Kennedy made the decision to utilize the defoliation program in Southeast Asia.
Secretary McNamara
first heard of the
alleged toxicity of the defoliant used in Viet Nam after he left the
government in March of 1968. He never heard the term "dioxin" or
"chloracne" during his entire period of service as Secretary of
Defense.
Secretary McNamara
if he had received such
information while he was Secretary of Defense, he would have pursued
the extent of such potential adverse effects on human beings, but no
such knowledge ever came to his attention.
4. Dr. Henry A. Kissinger was Assistant to the President National Security Affairs under President Nixon in 1969. In 1973 he became Secretary of State of the United States.
Dr. Kissinger's
was that the
Executive's concern was that nothing was happeneing in Viet Nam that
we would not do in the United States. It was further his belief that
the material being deployed was non-toxic and that President Nixon
would have had no independent information that he did not see in his
office. Dr. Kissinger
the decision to
terminate the defoliation program was made directly by President
Nixon.
The Public Health Service Did Not Discover the Toxicity of 2,4,5-T in the End Product
The Defendants argue that the government acquired virtually conclusive knowledge of the dangers of 2,4,5-T through the investigations of the Division of Occupational Health and Safety, and particularly the Cincinnati office. The refutation of that argument^ ^ ^ q

requires an analysis too detailed for inclusion in the body of this brief, and it is annexed to Appendix II hereto.
Ultimately, what defendants are contending is that all pieces of disparate information from various parts of government each knowing a little magically come together. This is arrant nonsense. However, even if it had it would not have approached the massive amount of information and expertise in control of the chemical companies, the record supports the conclusion that the government,^ let alone individual decisionmakers, did not generally or jointly approach the total of the knowledge of the defendants.
27-APR-83 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMFNTPat. ^nurpnr.r--- 1 C
c. IF THE IMBALANCE OF KNOWLEDGE EXISTS THEN THE DEFENDANTS ARE BARRED FROM SUMMARY JUDGMENT WITH REGARD TO SPECIFICATIONS AND MATERIAL COMPLIANCE
The development of the facts in this case demonstrate that imbalance of knowledge was extremely serious. The several briefs dealing with the conduct of the chemical defendants also demonstrate that they engaged in falsifications, half-truths, and outright conspiracy to deny the government vital information concerning Agent Orange. We now contend that in this context it would be unfair to allow the defendants the right to tell a jury that the specifications were those promulgated by the government and that they complied with those specifications in all material respects.
Can one fairly say that the specifications were those created by the government when the government was kept in the dark about significant aspects of the manufacturing process? Are specification words jotted down on paper or are they descriptions of a product? Should defendants be permitted in the context of such abysmal government ignorance of the manufacturing process be allowed to tell the jury that the "specification" were those of government.
When one understands what the nature of the government specifications were and how they were formulated the argument that defendants failed to comply becomes even more convincing.
For the military, as well as other bulk purchasers, specifications assure that certain products will be uniform. "Agent Orange" was a mixture of common products which were available to the general public in the same form as provided to the military. Even the lowly ketchup and mustard dispenser commonly used to decorate our hot dogs at a ball game come under an eight page military specification.
The mere fact that such common items come under a military specification makes them no more designed by the government or specially produced by the manufacturer for the government than are the herbicides which are the subject matter of this litigation. The mere existence of military
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 16
specifications is no defense to the claims of the plaintiff veterans that the 2,4,5-T acetic acid and its esters sold to the Department of Defense by the corporate defendants was defective because it was contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo p-dioxin (TCDD or "dioxin").
In reality, government and military specifications were dictated by what products the corporate defendants as manufacturers of commercial herbicides could make available for use in Southeast Asia during the war in Viet Nam. In determining what materials were to be used, representatives of the Department of Defense routinely contacted the manufacturers in order to determine what herbicides were commercially available. Defense Department knowledge was limited to what could be obtained from the manufacturers.
The 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid and its esters described in the government and military specifications were marketed commercially by the corporate defendants long before the development of any such specifications. Moreover, the manufacturers of herbicides not only controlled what products were to be made available to the military for deployment in Vietnam, they in fact assisted in the writing of those specifications.
Large purchasers of commercial products such as the Department of Defense routinely develop specifications to assure uniform quality and composition of materials. In no way do such purchase specifications constitute a directive to the manufacturer to produce the product in a particular manner, much less include a hazardous level of a substance so toxic as to require extraordinary handling precautions even among sophisticated analytical chemists employed by the corporate defendants in some of the best equipped state of the art laboratories.
Finally, the compliance aspect appears to be a cruel joke. The chemical companies were aware that government had no method for testing for dioxin contamination. The 1965 Midland Meeting insured
S" 83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE oaqe 17
that the government would continue in its ignorance. Only the
chemical companies were told for private consumption
that
testing techniques were available that could determine dioxin
contamination. Are the defendants who were aware of their individual
and industry-wide contamination problem now to be allowed to inform a
jury that they "complied" with fraudulently induced government
specification?

D. THE ACTIVE CONSPIRATORIAL CONDUCT OF THE DEFENDANT CHEMICAL
Um UAWXtf'MAkl%NltImjoO
KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR CO-CONSPIRATORS
What plaintiffs dimly suspected at the outset of this litigation has now been proven beyond question. The defendant chemical companies acted in their self-interest to prevent the military from learning about many of the hazards involved with the production and use of Agent Orange. Among the most serious of these are contained in the exchange of documents between Dow and Hercules concerning the 1965 Midland Meetings in which there is discussion of witholding information from government as to the alarming amount of acnegen [dioxin] and their desire to clean up the industry before the government stepped in to regulate. The full discussion of these memoranda is set forth in the plaintiffs separate briefs dealing with Dow Chemical Company and Hercules, Inc. To these must now be added the document from Hercules, Inc. of September 5, 1967 in which there is clear recognition that government testing capabilities for dioxin was woefully inadequate and inaccurate.
The spectre of a meeting in 1965, several years into the defoliation program in which Dow Chemical Company, Hooker Chemical Corp., Diamond Alkalai Co., Hercules Powder Co., met to discuss the dioxin problem and did not invite the government to participate needs no comment. When one adds to this the follow-up memoranda describing willful concealment there is little question that conspiracy is established.
The last instance of "cover up" was in the withholding from the government of the technology necessary to analyze the products and to detect its deadly impurities. The Air Force was working on a method of analysis, gas chromotrography which it hoped would prove more effective than the army's infrared spectrography, analysis and preliminary tests looked promising. The government was well behind the defendants in developing this technology, however.
In a memorandum marked "confidential" and dated September 5, 1967, from M .A. Taves, Synthetic Research Division, to Mr. J.M. Eagan,

Synthetic Department, the government procedure (infrared) was described as
There should be no question that plaintiffs assert that all the participants at that meeting bear conspiratorial responsibility for the dioxin contamination of the others. Dow and Hercules were well aware that Diamond Shamrock and Monsanto had contamination ranging from 10-50 ppm and decided not to reveal this to government. They bear the responsibility of co-conspirators (See, E.G. Bierczynski v. Rogers, 239 A.2d. 218 (Del 1968); Lemons v. Kelly, 239 Ore. 354 397 P.2d. 784 (1964))-- and-- each day brings to the fore new documents and the list of co-conspirators may yet grow to include other of the named defendants with guilty knowledge of the cover-up.

Q
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 20
WOULD FULL MILITARY KNOWLEDGE OF THE PRESENCE OF DIOXIN IN DEFENDANTS' HERBICIDE, TOGETHER WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF ATTENDANT
1. A Preliminary Overview
Dow argued that the government knew as much about dioxin and its implications as Dow knew during the entire period of herbicide deployment in Vietnam. Dow further argues that even if it knew more than the government, the government contract defense is available to it because the government's lack of knowledge did not contribute to its decision to continue to use Agent Orange -- that even if the government had been fully informed from the outset, it would have reached exactly the same decisions regarding deployment of the herbicide.
It bears repeating that the defendant's burden in connection with their motion for summary judgment is not merely to persuade the court that their characterization of the evidence in the case is accurate, but rather to demonstrate that there are no relevant issues of fact for the jury to decide and that the defendant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. This basic point is reemphasized for two reasons: first, because the defendant's memorandum on this aspect of their argument reads very much like an argument on the facts to the jury; and second, because on its face their argument regarding "what the government would have done if..." is uniquely appropriate for determination by the jury on all of the facts developed at trial.
2. The issue of how a fully informed government would have acted is not relevant to Phase 1 but is a proximate cause question.
Dow's Reliance in this Phase I on the likely reactions of
actual government decision-makers is misplaced; what actual
decision-makers would have done, if fully informed, relates to the
issue of proximate causation rather than the government contract
iefense.
, ... .SH"

83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMEMt-at
Purporting to take direction from this Court's order dated February 24, 1982, in which the court holds that the government contract defense will fail only "if the defendant was aware of hazards that might reasonably have affected the government's decision," ( 5 3 4 F. Supp. at 1057) (emphasis added), defendant Dow weaves into its argument references to the likely decisions of actual decision-makers, elements that should not be considered in this phase of the lawsuit. We submit that the portion of the quotation emphasized above is necessary and sensible to part of the government contract defense in as much as it requires that, to render unavailable the contract defense, the facts known by defendant Dow but not known by the government must be relevant to the government's task of engaging in rational decision-making. Thus, plaintiffs would concede that if Dow happened to know that its herbicide turned yellow in color when mixed with milk -- a feature that we shall assume could in no way affect the welfare of human beings -- Dow's failure to tell the government of this fact would not defeat the government contract defense.
It follows that in sorting out the relevant from the irrelevant differentials in knowledge between Dow and the government, this Court was correct in relying on the basic theme underlying its entire February 24, 1982 order: differentials in knowledge are relevant to the extent they "might reasonably have affected" rational decisions regarding deployment of the herbicide. Stated somewhat differently, Dow would have breached its duty to disclose, and hence would not be entitled to the contract defense it seeks, if it failed to inform the government of facts that "might reasonably have affected" rational governmental decision making.
Beyond the issue of whether Dow breached its duty to disclose, there remains the issue of whether Dow's breach proximately caused the plaintiff's injuries. Plaintiffs submit that further issue might well involve the question of whether Dow's failure to disclose in fact contributed to the government's decision regarding whether and how to continue to deploy the herbicides. In effect, having been ~ shown to have failed to supply the government with adequate knowledge
to support rational decision-making, and thus, having lost the government contractor defense phase of this lawsuit, Dow may wish to argue at some future time that its breach of duty to disclose did not proximately cause the plaintiff's injuries because, impliedly, the actual government with which Dow dealt would have gone ahead and applied the herbicide with full knowledge of the severe risks to personnel, but such an argument would be appropriately raised only at a later phase of this lawsuit, in the context of the subsequent issue of proximate causation. It follows that by questioning "what this decision maker actually would have done" at this phase of the trial, Dow oversteps the bounds of the issue presently before this Court.
Summarizing, Plaintiffs would not deny Dow the opportunity to argue at some later phase of this litigation that even if Dow did breach its duty to supply information that might have affected a rational decision-maker, Dow should not be liable because the actual decision makers with whom it dealt were (impliedly) irrational, and thus would not have been affected by full disclosure of the severe risks to military personnel from using the herbicide. Plaintiffs simply ask that they wait to make that argument until the issue of proximate causation is properly before the Court at a later phase of the lawsuit.
Plaintiffs concede that an underlying premise of this Court's
development of the government contractor defense has been that a fully
informed government has the right, vis-a-vis affected third persons,
to act in any way it chooses without incurring, or its supply
contractors incurring, liability.
But once a differential in
knolwedge is shown to have existed between contractor and government
-- once the government is shown to have been ignorant rather than
informed regarding relevant risks -- we submit that the Court must
indulge in a presumption of rationale, rather than irrational,
decision making on the part of the government. Once Dow is shown to
have breached its duty to disclose, the question in this phase of the
trial is whether that breach would have affected rational
decision-making. This is a mixed question of fact and law calling for
r&
what is, in essence, a value judgment for the jury. If Dow wants to argue "even if our failure to disclose would have affected rational decision making, it would not have affected this government's decision making," let them do so at a later phase of the lawsuit, when the Court properly addresses the issue of proximate causation.
Plaintiffs position in this regard is supported by
traditional rules of law governing, for example, a physicians's duty
to disclose to his patient risks attending treatment -- the so-called
"informed consent" doctrine. Whether the physician breached his duty
of disclosure is determined by reference to what information a
reasonable person in the patient's position would require in order to
make a rational decision regarding whether to consent to undergoing
treatment.
If the physician fails to disclose relevant risks, he
breaches his duty. The further question of whether this particular
plaintiff would have gone ahead and submitted to treatment even if
fully informed is a question relating to the issue of proximate cause.
See, e.g., Canterbury v. Spence, 150 U.S. App. D.C. 263, 464 F .2d 772
(1972), Scott v. Bradford, 606 p.2d 554, (Okl. 1979).
These cases clearly support our analysis of the instant case. In this first phase, focusing on an issue relating to defendant's breach of its duty to disclose, the relevant "what if?" question is whether defendant's failure to share information would have affected a rational decision maker. If defendant Dow wants to try to show that the particular decision makers with whom Dow dealt (and whom Dow kept in ignorance) would have gone ahead even if fully informed, let Dow raise that later in connection with the issue of proximate causation.
3. Proximate Causaton Questions Are For The Jury.
The issue of whether defendant Dow's failure to disclose
would have affected a rational decision-maker is uniquely one for the
jury.
.......... 9
By their nature, issues couched in hypothetical, "what would
CO
have happend if?" terms may almost never he resolved ahead of 4u- i x a x1 ^ as a matter of law. Because they involve speculation regarding a set of circumstances that never actually occurred, "what if?" questions of this sort are almost always reserved for resolution on all the factual circumstances by the triers of fact. Bearing in mind that to reach this question it must be assumed that the defendant Dow breached its duty to disclose relevant information to the government, Dow's insistence that the inherently speculative question of "what if?" be resolved in its favor as a matter of law is patently groundless. Plaintiffs have not asked for summary judgment. But if this particular issue were to be resolved one way or another by the Court as a matter of law, it should be resolved against, rather than in favor of, the breaching defendant Dow.
F. A HOST OF SERIOUSLY CONTESTED FACTUAL ISSUES ATTEND THE QUESTION AS TO WHETHER THE MILITARY WOULD HAVE ACTED DIFFERENTLY HAD IT BEEN TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT AGENT ORANGE.
Even if the issue whether the actual decision makers would have acted differently, properly before the Court, as Dow argues, that issue presents myriad questions of fact for the jury.
Dow argues that at some point during the war effort,
decision-makers became aware of the adverse effects of Agent Orange.
Dow insists that these decision-makers, finally cognizant of the consequences of their acts, continued to use or to advocate the use of
the herbicide. For Dow, decisions to use Agent Orange made under
these conditions of knowledge demonstrate that the earlier ignorance
by the government was irrelevant to any determination concerning the
herbicide.
This focus on actual decision-makers is misplaced for
reasons already noted. Accepting arguendo Dow's framing of the issue,
Plaintiffs response is two-fold.
First, the extent of the
government's knowledge covering hazards even during the later period
of time that Dow seeks to use as a benchmark of "informed"
governmental conduct is inadequate. Dow's conception of full Q,C 4.
knowledge does not reflect knowledge of all relevant information.
Second, the issue of what the government would have done with all
relevant knowledge is an intricate and difficult one that depends on various facts that are hotly disputed in this litigation. Thus, that issue must be given to the jury and is inappropriate for decision by summary judgment.
Dow contends that the government employed Agent Orange as a matter of military necessity, that it was an effective battlefield, weapon, the potency of which outweighed any cost associated with its use. As evidence of this conscious weighing of risks and benefits, Dow points to the government's continued use of the herbicide even after it was -- in Dow's view -- clear to the government that some toxic effects might accrue. Dow sees support that this was the response of rational decision-making in the statement of Dr. Minarik that he thought dioxin levels of less than 1 ppm were safe and a statement by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff that restrictions on dioxin contamination in herbicides were unwarranted. For Dow, the cessation of herbicide use after the government became knowledgeable of associated hazards resulted from "political" concerns irrelevant to the issue of toxicity, e.g. ecological consequences. In effect, Dow argues that an "informed" government, cognizant of all risks, feared adverse public reaction to the destruction of crops but was unmoved by the possibility that the same product could maim its troops.
The obvious problem with these evidentiary assertions in the
context of motion for summary judgment is that none of them is
undisputed.
There exists plentiful evidence that throughout the
entire war effort, information concerning dioxin and its consequences
did not come to the attention of policy-making officials who decided
whether to deploy Agent Orange. Dow's view of the evidence concerning
government's knowledge is, at best, out of context and, at worst,
simply wrong.
In either event, the task of sorting out the
conflicting assertions is for the jury and is inappropriate for
summary judgment.
Even if one looks solely at the evidence that Dow marshalls
for its position, it is clear that the picture of the government that emerges is by no means one of a fully informed decision-maker, and thus, its conduct with the information it actually possessed does not constitute a model of fully informed decision-making. Dow suggests, for instance, that the government at some late date was aware that Agent Orange, probably contained 1 ppm of dioxin, but decided to use the herbicide anyway. Assuming for the moment the veracity of Dow's assertion, this statement, standing alone, has virtually no probative value for the issue of what an informed government would have done. Unless the government was fully informed with respect to the implications of exposure to dioxin, its conduct predicated on a conception, or misconception, of contamination of Agent Orange is not the conduct of an adquately informed decision-maker. If, as Dow contends, the government "knew" of occupational health hazards "such as chloracne" (Dow Brief at 76), but did not know of other serious consequences of the herbidice's use, it is the height of sophistry to take from the jury the issue of what the government would have done on the theory that its conduct reveals the proper answer to that question. If the government "knew" that toxic impurities could accompany the production of Agent Orange, but did not know that the herbicide that it was being supplied contained contaminant levels far in excess of anything remotely approaching levels believed to be "safe," then continued use by the government of that product is not evidence of its knowing approval of the product.
Dow's other evidence demonstrates that the level of governmental knowledge with respect to the full implications of dioxin contamination was meager at best. Dow, for instance, begins its argument with the assertion that "by the mid-1960's" government had the requisite awareness of dioxin contamination and its effects (Dow Brief of 76). Certainly Dow at the time did not believe that the government had sufficient knowledge to make a reasonable decision. Dow's conduct in organizing and abetting a conspiracy of silence among the manufacturers graphically demonstrates its concern in 1965 that relevant information had not reached, and should not subsequently reach, government hands.

->n
Nor does subsequent government conduct suggest appreciation of the dangers that Dow sought to hide. Dow cites as evidence of government knowledge a warning recommended by the Army Surgeon General's Office in 1968 for insertion in the herbicide specification. That warning stated:
CAUTIONI MAY CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION
Avoid Contact With Eyes, Skin and Clothing
(Dow Brief at 70). Given the full implications of Agent Orange use, this warning was the work of fools or knaves. Unless one posits that the Army Surgeon General's Office wanted to mislead the troops, the jury could certainly infer that this warning of "skin irritation" was promulgated by a group that did not comprehend the toxic nature of the substance with which they were concerned. Indeed, the very fact that the Army recommended a precautionary warning for minor adverse effects such as "skin irritation" may well permit the jury to infer sufficient solicitude for the troops that the government would have taken far more drastic steps, including halting use altogether, if it had full knowledge of the herbicide's consequences.
Dow next argues that a Rand Corporation study that dealt with toxicity was referred by Secretary McNamara to the Joint Chiefs of Staff for review. Dow notes that the "Joint Chiefs recommended that the crop destruction program continue without mentioning the toxicity issue." Dow Brief at 80. For Dow, this fact is concrete evidence that a fully informed government did not care about toxicity. But a jury could certainly reject this callous view and conclude instead that the failure to mention toxicity at all emanated from the failure to comprehend the seriousness of the problem, i.e., that the Joint Chiefs, and the government at large, were inadequately informed about the consequences of their actions.
Dow also relies on a memorandum from the Chairman of the
Chiefs of Staff that
(Dow Brief at In the face of Dow's assertion that it was producing Agent Orange that met this specification, it is clear that those deciding the future of Agent Orange use were uninformed about risk-reducing techniques as well as about the risks themselves. Their conduct, therefore, even at a late date, cannot be looked to as evidence of what government with full information would have done.
Was this information that appears to have been lacking among
government officials relevant to an informed decision? The
possibility that a jury could find that it was relevant is evidenced
by the behavior of those parties who did possess the information.
Since the mid-1960's, Dow had information that Agent Orange supplied
to the government contained large levels of dioxin, far in excess of
anything Dow considered safe or necessary. Dow also knew that its own
product would be mixed with that of others into a fungible mass and used in this manner on the battlefield. Dow also possessed
information concerning reduction of the contaminant level. What did Dow do with this information? It concealed it from the government and
urged others -- its co-defendants -- to do the same. It failed to share with others the information concerning risk reduction. Dow
effectively confirmed the sale of contaminated herbicide to the government and, through comspiring to conceal information of the
conduct of its co-defendants from the government, adopted that conduct as its own. Why would Dow and its co-defendants have adopted such a
course of action? They were clearly aware of what the government
would have done had it been fully cognizant of the risks and risk
reduction methods known to Dow. An informed government would either
ia have terminated its use of the herbicide or would have imposed
restriction on its sale for both governmental and domestic use that
would have adversely affected the financial interests of the chemical
- -- companies. `
.................... -
...
Certainly, there did come a time when the government was
t
/ /
sufficiently aware of the hazards of Agent Orange that it ceased using the herbicide. If Dow is correct that subsequent conduct is evidence of what post-behavior would have been, one would think that this fact demonstrates what the government would have done if it had had access to information concerning hazards at an earlier stage. Dow, however, attempts to twist the implications of the government's action by attributing it to "political" as opposed to health-related concerns. It is not germane here to prove precisely what motivated the government to terminate the herbicide program. Plaintiff would only point out that even on this issue there exists a myriad of unresolved fact issues. It would be a rather perverse government that knew as much about Agent Orange as Dow asserts our government did in 1970 but did not consider health hazards to its troops in reaching a decision about the utility of herbicide use. As with all decisions made by government, the decision to terminate use of Agent Orange was surely "political" in the sense that it took into account factors of concern to various constituencies. One would not downplay the ecological and international concerns expressed at that time or the government's, reaction to it. A jury, however, could certainly find that these factors alone did not motivate the government. Rather, the cumulative weight of the adverse effects, whether described as "political" or otherwise, precipitated the termination order. Hence, the fact that the government ceased using the herbicide after obtaining additional knowledge of potential health hazards is far more probative of what a fully informed government would have done than Dow concedes.
A final point is in order. Dow's argument on the causation issue has been to create a dichotomy of government's potential reaction to information concerning health hazards of Agent Orange. Dow contends that the issue is simply whether the government would have used the herbicide or not. From this dichotomy, Dow formulates the response that the government would have used the chemical notwithstanding full knowledge of its implications because it was a useful weapon, a military necessity that saved the lives of troops threatened by ambush. As has already been-said, even if this dichotomy were valid, it presents many issues of fact for the jury.

THE COURT SHOULD USE THIS OCCASION TO SIMPLIFY THE ISSUES
/ If there is any virtue to the present motions, it is that
these motions for summary judgment give the Court an opportunity to
simplify and focus the issues at trial.
A motion for summary judgment "searches the record." It is well used in large cases to educate the Court concerning the legal and factual issues of the case but it can, of course, be used to grant either full or partial judgment against the moving party.
On the present motion, the defendants' own papers show that there was no web of information of the kind they hoped to uncover when discovery began. At no time did knowledge of what dioxin was in the end product and how it could affect human health filter its way to any responsable military officer in a position to judge whether continued spraying of Agent Orange was in the best interests of the United States and to halt it if it was not.
former Defense Secretary McNamara made it abundantly clear that he would have pursued the matter vigorously if he had known of potential adverse effects on humans of herbicide spraying
Not only he, but Secretary Rusk, President Kennedy and later President Johnson were sensitive to the effect on human life of military operations (McNamara T r . 13).
By way of contrast, the defendants appear to have enjoyed a very clear, very focused idea of the dangers in the product they were selling.
Under such circumstances, it would seem appropriate at this
point in the case to make some preliminary rulings concerning the
scope of the evidence and the scope of the arguments that may be made
at trial. The peripheral lines of possible information so thoroughly
explored in discovery and found fruitless should be ruled out of the
case and deleted as part .'of the burden of trial. If the inquiries of
the Office of Occupational Safety led to no new breakthroughs and led

On further reflection, however, it is clear that no such dichotomy constrains the jury. Rather, the jury could find as a fact that the government, possessing all relevant information, could have decided to continue use of Agent Orange, but to modify the manner of use. A jury might find, for example, that the government could have trained troops concerning safer handling of the herbicide and could have placed more precise warnings on cannisters containing the herbicide. Had Dow shared with the government the knolwedge that other chemical companies were delivering Agent Orange with highly toxic levels of dioxin, the government could have, at an earlier date, promulgated specifications that limited the permissible amount of contaminants. The silence of Dow and its co-defendants concerning the relevant properties of their own products and those of others effectively deny us from knowing to a certainty what the government would have done with that information. Given that silence, it does not lie in their mouths now to contend that they are entitled, as a matter of law, to an inference that their failure to disclose did not affect governmental behavior in any material way.

/ to no inquiry on the part of those most particularly affected in the military, then they are irrlevant and should be eliminated now. While it is interesting that the government considered building a plant at Weldon Springs, if that did not lead to any focused knowledge on the part of the rational decision maker, that too should be eliminated. The Court will never be in a better position than now to view the scope of the contentions and to make these determinations. Similarly, there are legal issues that can be simplified at this time. Where a defendant chemical company knew that one of its co-defendants had knowledge of the toxicity of the product, did it not have a duty to warn the government that such information existed and to tell it where it could be obtained? Plaintiffs annex to this brief an outline of issues that they believe can by simplified or clarified at this time. The Court is respectfully requested to consider these proposals.

CONCLUSION A new and tragic chapter in the history of the Viet Nam War / is now written. The evidence is undisputed that the defendant chemical companies who supplied the military with dioxin-contaminated herbicides knowingly poisoned american soldiers and concealed that fact from a trusting military and from all but each other, choosing instead to repeatedly warrant the safety of their product. Defendants' failure to use readily available means of reducing the hazardous dioxin contamination of their herbicides evidenced a callous preference of profit to the health and safety of the troops who served this country, for which defendants should confront their days of reckoning before the juries who hear this case.

APPENDIX I Plaintiffs' Requested Findings
summary judgment process has moved this case towards a more concrete definition of the contested factual issues, underlying the government contract defense. It is possible to begin to focus more specifically on the nature of the questions to be addressed in the final pre-trial order and in the jury instructions that must guide them in reaching special verdicts as to the government contract defense.
In this memorandum plaintiffs have presented their views on the meaning of the government contract defense as they believe the Court intended it to be decided by the jury.
Plaintiffs have also demonstrated that the moving defendants have not met their burden of proving that the military knew as much as or more than the defendants about the hazards to people that accompanied the use of the herbicides which the defendants supplied under their contracts with the military for use in Viet Nam during each of the years that such herbicides were used?
Plaintiffs believe that the evidence demonstrates the contrary and that accordingly defendants' motions for summary judgment should be denied. Concurrently with denial of defendants' motions for summary judgment plaintiffs respectfully request the following findings for the guidance of the parties in the preparation of the pre-trial order.
First, the herbicides involved in this lawsuit are not herbicides in general, but the particular herbicides containing varying degrees of dioxin contamination that were supplied by defendants to the military under their contracts and were later mixed together before use in Viet Nam.
Second, the "government" here means the appropriate military
R i - a P R - 7 7 D T . & T N T T T F F S 1 R R T F F ONT n n V P R M M T 'M T M . W K in W T .F n r iF . n a c t P 3*1
r on maker because as the Court made clear in its order, the
0vernment contract relates to the relationship between the supplier
ond the military. It is the military who was to be apprised of the
hazards and risks known to the supplier, attendant to the particular
herbicide supplied to the military 534 F.Supp. at 1055. Furthermore,
it is not simply the military's knowledge about the potential
formation of dioxin in herbicides, but more importantly, the actual
degree of dioxin contamination in the herbicides supplied by
defendants to the military, and the latter's knowledge of such actual
dioxin contamination.
In short, it is not herbicides' potential
dioxin and hazards or risks in general, or the government in general,
but the specific herbicides sold by these defendants to the military
and the specific degree of their dioxin contamination, the risks and
hazards, known by the defendants and the military about the herbicides
supplied under the contracts and later used in Viet Nam.
Third, it is not just any person in the military who had to be apprised of such hazards and risks, but it must be one whose position and responsibility are such that he had an opportunity fairly to balance the herbicides' risks and benefits as a condition precedent to making the decision to use in Vietnam the particular herbicides supplied by the defendants. Thus, it will be defendants' burden to establish that there was in the military a decision maker who knew what the defendants knew about the herbicides they supplied to the military and the basis for such knowledge and when defendants knew it, and that the decision maker apprised of that knowledge occupied such level of the military authority that he had the responsibility and opportunity fairly to balance the risks and benefits of the specific herbicides supplied by the defendants. That defendants failed to meet this burden appears from their summary judgment submissions which address the general and fail to come to grips with the sharply focused requirements of the government contract defense as formulated by the Court. This is undoubtedly due to fact that no military decision maker, high or low, could possibly have known that defendants deliberately concealed the fact that the herbicides they supplied to the military were contaminated with dioxin and hazardous to human
> 3862
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 36
s
health and concealed what defendants' could do to reduce such hazard. Nor could the military have known that the defendants misrepresented to the other agencies of government that the specific herbicides they sold to the government were safe to humans.
Fourth, the "knowledge" of the defendants in the context of this case includes all their knowledge relevant to the research, development, design, manufacture, analysis and testing of the specific herbicides sold by the defendants to the military. It includes all knowledge which defendants gained through their own experience and from each other pertinent to the hazards attendant to the herbicides they supplied to the military. Thus, knowledge includes what defendants actually knew or were charged with knowing about their particular herbicide by reason of their expertise and experience as manufacturers, and the state of the art and technology with respect to such herbicides.
Defendants' knowledge must obviously include their trade secrets, proprietary know-how, and confidential information. Knowledge as to the hazards or risks includes not simply defendants' beliefs on such subjects, but the bases for such beliefs, to wit, the data, assumptions, theories, analysis, reasoning, calculations, judgments and conclusions known to, used, or relied on by defendants. To meet their burden, defendants must have shared all knowledge with the military or they must prove that the military decision makers independently acquired such knowledge. Thus, a defendant would not be relieved cf its duty to share with the military any knowledge relative to hazard, on which such defendant relied in reaching a belief that its particular herbicide was not hazardous, even if such belief was justified, in defendant's view.
Fifth, "knowledge about the hazards" of necessity also
includes defendants' knowledge as to means of reducing the hazards
through their analytical capability of detecting and testing for
dioxin and use of the manufacturing and other processes which prevent,
minimize, or eliminate dioxin.

jxXx-ii, ii derendants establish that the military knew as much or more than the defendants about the hazards accompanying the use of the herbicides supplied by the defendants, defendants would not satisfy their burden, if they did not also disclose to the military, the means which defendants knew of reducing such hazards. As the Court pointed out, the military's decisions on the vital question of whether to use the defendants' herbicides "should at least be made on the basis of the readily available information" 534 F.Supp. at 1055.
"Thus the military would be keenly interested in knowing from the defendants whether there were means of avoiding or reducing dioxin and their attendant health hazards in the herbicides being supplied by defendants and the cost of doing so, so that the military decision maker would be provided with "an opportunity fairly to balance the weapons, risks and benefits." Id.
Accordingly, the defendants were under a duty to share with the military any knowledge defendants possessed as to the means of risk reduction.
Seventh, the phrase "hazards to people that accompanied the use of the herbicides" should not be interpreted to mean hazards only to the users or those otherwise exposed to the finished products.
"Hazards to people" means hazards to all people involved in the manufacture or use of the specific herbicides supplied by the defendants to the military.
The Court clearly intended that this broader meaning be assigned to that phrase. The Court's opinion speaks of "the extent of a supplier's knowledge about the hazards of the product being purchased." 534 F.Supp. 1053.
Since the use of the specific herbicides supplied by the defendants was only made possible by the manufacturing process which preceded it, in assessing the hazards and risks attendant to those herbicides, the military would be interested in knowing what hazards q q g
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 38
human 'health defendants knew of in connection with the production process. The evidence obtained through plaintiffs' discovery of defendants discloses that if there is dioxin in the intermediate materials involved in the manufacturing process, it will also be present in the finished product unless appropriate steps are taken to remove it. Thus, it was defendants' duty to share with the military such knowledge as defendants possessed with respect to the degree of dioxin contamination present in such intermediate materials and the health problems of their workers encountered during the manufacturing process of the particular herbicides supplied to the military, and to also disclose to the military what steps, if any, were taken by the defendants to remove dioxin from the finished product supplied to the military.
The defendants will be deemed to have violated their duty to warn if they conspired to conceal or in fact, did conceal from the military or did misrepresent to any government agency, what defendants knew about the herbicides they supplied to the military, to wit, that they were contaminated with dioxin in both their intermediate and finished product stages and were hazardous to human health.
Eighth, defendants duty to share its knowledge with the military included its knowledge as to the increased health hazards that would accompany the use of mixed dioxin contaminated herbicides. The evidence shows that the defendants were in communication with each other through meetings, telephone calls and correspondence. They knew that the herbicides each was selling to the military were contaminated with dioxin to varying degrees. They knew that there were means of analyzing, detecting, and removing dioxin from and reducing the health hazards attendant to the herbicides they were supplying to the military. They knew but concealed from the military the fact that the herbicides they were supplying to the military were being mixed before use in Viet Nam so that the herbicides of some defendants (Dow and
arcules) although containing lesser degrees of dioxin contamination, would become more contaminated with dioxin as the result of combining them with the herbicides supplied by the other defendants which
c onta ined higher levels of dioxin.
Finally, the issue at this phase of the litigation is not whether the military would have used defendants1 herbicides in the Viet Nam War irrespective of the military's knowledge of the presence of dioxin in such herbicides, and irrespective of the military's knowledge of the hazards to human health accompanying the use of defendants' herbicides.
The premise of the government contract defense is that the military was entitled to be informed of the hazards so that it would have an opportunity fairly to balance risks and benefits. Any evidence offered to prove how that balancing judgment and decision would have been struck, or how the military did act or would have acted, if it knew what defendants knew, is irrelevant.

APPENDIX II
Nowhere is the trail of knowledge more actively pursued with less success than in the investigation of the Public Health Service-
Defendants have attempted to paint on a large canvas in broad brush strokes a panorama of the extensive knowledge within the United States Public Health Service of herbicides, the presence of a contaminant in 2,4,5-T (preferably TCDD), and that either in combination or separately they cause chloracne. The background color for the canvas is quite obviously orange. At various critical points the viewer's eye is directed to secondary colors of black comedomes and white squares represnting widely disseminated field trip and laboratory reports. The canvas painted in the Diego Rivera style, portrays a complete chronology of events and important personages spanning a particularly significant period in history, in this instance from 1949 through the last years of the 1960s.
According to defendants this magnificant canvas was viewed many times by important administrators, experts, and decision makers in other agencies of the Federal Government. The subject matter, of course, of defendants' canvas is gleaned from the deposition transcripts of a number of individuals who served in the United States Public Health Service during the critical 1960s. Even a cursory view raises questions as to the authenticity of the events portrayed. A closer scrutiny reveals that the canvas is more the product of the defendants' artistic imagination than a reflection of reality.
On the far left the defendants' depict a Dr. Louis Schwartz and Dr. Donald J. Birmingham visiting the Monsanto Plant in Nitro, West Virginia in 1949 to observe workers who had developed chloracne as a result of an incident during the manufacturer of 2,4,5-T.
Dr. Donald Birmingham, deposed on Thursday, August 26, 1982, testified as follows with reference to the above (at page 21, line 19 through page 24, line 4)
O' U J 1
\
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 42
It is quite obvious that, contrary to the assertion of defendants, Drs. Schwartz and Birmingham toured the Nitro facility not as a result of any particular incident and the presence of a number of cases of chloracne, but rather on an information gathering tour by Schwartz for the benefit of Birmingham who might sometime in the future have to deal with occupational disease problems at the on-site industry level. It is also obvious from the transcript that the visitors reviewed the chloracne victims as purely academic interest at the time. Equally obvious is the fact that they were not there expressly for that purpose nor did they follow through with additional research or investigations later. A visit by Dr. Birmingham in 1952 was again for purposes of observation and, although he viewed some chloracne victims, it is apparent from his testimony that he was not
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page^43
there for that express purpose nor did he engage thereafter in any intensive scientific inquiry as tu udUsdl linkage between any ekemi cal and chloracne. (page 27, line 1 through page 29, line 25).

Other figures loom large on the panoramic canvas of defendants' portrayal of the USPHS. Among them can be seen Dr. George Lawton, who was a resident intern, in fact a third year medical intern, at the Cincinnati facility of the U.S. Public Health Service between 1963 and the end of 1964. It should be noted here that Dr. Lawton, upon leaving that facility in early 1965 to rejoin active service in a Navy facility in Indiana did not discuss or talk with anyone thereafter about his in-training laboratory experience while at the Cincinnati facility.
As for publication of knowledge, Dr. Lawton even disclaims having written a periodic report on his research.

Defendant, Hercules, placing extraordinary emphasis on the testimony of Dr. Lawton to abstractly paint its illusory picture of government knowledge about the hazards to humans associated with the defective herbicides, would have the world believe that the U.S. Public Health Service in 1963 conducted massive testing of 2,4,5-T herbicides under the supervision of Dr. Lawton. His testimony, as summarized from Hercules' moving papers, purportedly establishes that Dr. Lawton initiated a "controlled animal study of various 2,4,5-T herbicides," and that after conducting a literature search that defendant would have inferred exhausted the subject, Dr. Lawton selected the rabbit ear test for chloracne, designed a porphyrin test to detect liver damage and became aware of similarities between human and rabbit responses to the herbicides that were widely reported to the U.S. PHS. (Hercules Brief, pages 51-53)
But, this painting is not only illusory. On closer
examination, the canvas is utterly blank. Dr. Lawton never mentions a
"controlled animal" study. He simply acknowledges in response to
questions from defendant's counsel that sometime in late 1963 or early
1964 he became involved in the study of 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic
acid .
While the inference
that defendant would like to have drawn from its selective
extrapolation of Dr. Lawton's testimony is that a pre-eminent 'C
scientist had established proof positive of harmful effects on humans
from a known contaminant and had displayed that proof for all the
world to see, the fact is that all that is established is that a
third-year intern conducting post-graduate experiments looking for

abandoned his work for another Q?,
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 59
When Dr. Lawton left Cincinnati, his research project was not c0mpleted and was passed on to Dr. David Groth, who abandoned the project. This obviously does not put the imprimatur of the United States Public Health Service or any other government agency on the project as certifying the imputation of knowledge of health hazards to humans associated with the use of Agent Orange.

canvas is that of Dr. Herbert E. Stokinger, deposed on January 17, 1983. He too, was a member of the Cincinnati Group in the United States Public Health Service as chief toxicologist in the Division of Occupational Heilth between 1951 to 1977. As for Dr. Stokinger's contact with the laboratory researchers who were performing experiments on such compounds as 2,4,5-T, it does not appear that he had much direct contact at all.
83-APR-27 PLAINTIFFS' BRIEF ON GOVERNMENTAL KNOWLEDGE page 61
In fact awareness of such early incidences as Nitro, West "irginia and of the knowledge of Dr. Louis Schwartz, which defendants would like to be able to impute to important individuals such as Dr. Stokinger, seems to be impossible to do.

r It is of considerable significance in relation to these motions for summary judgment that the reports of field trips by Dr. Schwartz and others were not generally distributed. On the contrary they were returned to the industrial facility marked "confidential", hardly an efficient means of broadcasting knowledge or creating a parity of knowledge. Moreover, Dr. Stokinger's testimony is so exquisitely clear on the purpose of this practice that if a motion for summary judgment is at all proper on this issue, it lies in favor, not of the defendants, but of the plaintiffs. Dr. Stokinger stated:
Regarding Dr. Stokinger's contacts with industrial experts and specific knowledge of chloracne and contaminants in 2,4,5-T, it appears from his direct testimony that the association that defendants would like to make and hav-i everyone believe is incorrect, possibly even a fabrication, that the chemical company defendants knew full well the limits at which their products were manifestly harmful and yet led the government and everyone else to believe that their end products were in no was human health hazards.

The original broad brush strokes of the defendants in their portrayal of specific knowledge within the USPHS and its dissemination throughout the Government turns out to be nothing more than a small miniature carried in a locket in the vest pocket of a few individuals in the United States Public Health Service, seen by nobody, signifying nothing.

PLAINTIFFS MEMORANDUM AS TO DEFENDANT MONSANTO'S KNOWLEDGE
ABOUT MANUFACTURING PROCESS, DIOXIN AS CONTAMINANT DETECTION METHODS,
RISK REDUCTION METHODS, AND HEALTH HAZARDS ASSOCIATED
WITH EXPOSURE TO DIOXIN Perhaps the most malevolent participant in the Chemical Company conspiracy to withold from the Government and the general public the toxic effects of the dioxin content in their 2,4,5-T is the Monsanto Chemical Company.
It was in 1949, at their Nitro, West Virginia plant that Montsanto was first alerted to the existence of a contaminant present in their 2,4,5-T process. As a result of the "process upset", (Monsanto's term), workers participating in the refinement of sodium trichlorophenol (the precurser of 2,4,5-T) were exposed to the product. Ultimately, more than 200 workers in the 2,4,5-T department began to develop manifestations of toxic exposure.
Multiple workers' compensation claims were filed in which there were made acute complaints of liver damage, peripheral neuropathy, chloracne and severe systemic effects.
As a matter of fact, R. Emmet Kelly, M.D., for many years the Dirctor of the Monsanto Medical Department and the person whose responsibility it was to investigate and supervise Nitro workers' complaints, in his deposition, acknowledged the causal relationship between 2,4,5-T exposure and claims of peripheral neuropathy, nerve demyelination, chloracne, and even
As was reported in the confidential Monsanto final report on 2,4,5-T terminating January of 1969:

In 1969. Dr. Oettel at Badische expressed the opinion that tetrachlorodibenxodioxane (TDD) was the chloracnegenic material. In 1969, Dow presented an analytical method for the determination of TDD to representatives of Monstanto and Hercules Power and presumably to other interested parties. With the availability of the analytical method, Monsanto began to monitor various process streams in the Nitro plant. This program has continued to the present date. "(1)

(As high as this amount was, it was nowhere near the huge amount of toxic contamination of the Monsanto product that further analysis was about to reveal.) On the 24th day of February, 1965, the Medical Director, Kelly, spoke to his Dow counterpart, V.K. Rowe. Rowe acknowledged that Dow had 20 cases of chloracne and admitted that he was sure that dioxin was the cause.

Monsanto knew for 20 years before 1969 that the 2,4,5-T that they produced contained toxic impurities that were clearly and dramatically hazardous to humans. Their knowledge emanated from their own personal experiences, from the reports of industrial problems from other chemical companies producxng the same product and from confidential exchanges from the manufacturers.
At the very time that they first began to produce Agent Orange, Monsanto discovered and was able to isolate dioxin as the toxic ingredient. There is no question that Dioxin was viewed by all as highly toxic. They knew that the 2,4,5-T sold by them to the government was being used in Viet Nam. Did Monsanto evera i m any
governmental officer with regard to the risks of dioxin contamination associated with Agent Orange or the methods of dioxin control? No.
In their Verified Answer to the Plaintiffs' Interrogatories, Monsanto has admittedAhat they were not responsible for, familiar with, or participating in any warnings to the United States Government. (8) (Supplemental Answer to Interrogatory 2B(vi)).

PLAINTIFF'S MEMORANDUM AS TO DEFENDANT DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION'S KNOWLEDGE ABOUT MANUFACTURING PROCESS DIOXIN AS CONTAMINANT,
DETECTION METHODS, RISK REDUCTION METHODS, AND HEALTH HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH EXPOSURE TO DIOXIN
1. Documents submitted by Diamond Shamrock Corporation and testimony of the Defendant's own witnesses graphically demonstrate that there was an enormous amount of information exchanged relating tc the contaminant involved herein, its manufacture, its means of analysis, methods of elimination, and last, and perhaps most importantly, knowledge by the defendants of the extent of contamination in the product sold to the government by Diamond.
2. The historical experience of Diamond Shamrock Corporation with 2,4,5-T is encapsulated in communication from Richard W. McBurney, M.D., dated March 27, 1963, addressed to Mr. Frank W. Jarvis, Vice-President of Diamond Shamrock Corporation,
This letter refers to a building of ancient vintage where 2,4,5-T acxd processing actually takes place and advises
At one time, approximately 40 of the 72 workers in the plant were affected by chloracne. Paragraph 5 of page 1 states,
3. This concern expressed by Dr. McBurney, however,
not begin and end with the problem of chloracne in the production
workers.
there was a
growing concern about a medical condition known as porphyria cutanea
tarda. This is a disease of the blood forming elements of the body in
27-APR-83 DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION MEMORANDUM page 2 3398
which the hemoglobin of the red blood cells is broken down and, essentially, the spleen, liver, and kidneys are effected to a greater or lesser extent, depending upon the ingestion of such a chlorinated benzene. One of the physicians working on behalf of Diamond Shamrock at the Newark plant, Dr. Bleiberg, conducted a test on four men who had suffered the longest from chloracne only to find that two of these men had positive porphyn reactions in their urine.
4. Eugene Bak in the mid 1960's became production mana
of the Diamond Shamrock Newark plant
3ak
was advised of
health problems with the workers in the Newark plant when he first
came to Newark and reported to Francis Kennedy, Plant Manager
He felt
chloracne was a serious health problem when he became production
manager
certainly half the
workers m Acid and T-Ester Building were effected by chloracne
the
management suspected that the health hazard also included porphyria
among the workers at Newark and that there was some positive findings
in the urine specimens of these workers
chloracne and
liver problems existed in the Newark plant and he was concerned about
it The plant manager for Diamond Shamrock at
Newark considered chloracne to be a serious health problem while
functioning in that capacity
the same
products were sold to the public that were suspected t.o cause
chloracne in workers
5. these same products were sent
overseas as Agent Orange
Given the admitted
knowledge of Diamond Shamrock's production manager, it is shocking to
consider the complete lack of disclosure to the Government of the
information possessed by Diamond Shamrock
9899
> 27-APR-83 DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION MEMORANDUM page 3
6. Having established the existence of and knowledg health hazards, not only in the production stages of the product, but in the final product itself, consider the interchange of this information between Diamond Shamrock and the other defendants in this law suit. The deposition testimony of Edward Lee Chandler, taken on February 8, 1983, indicates that in 1957, Chandler became manager of the technical service department of Diamond Shamrock which was a liaison between the technical development of products and the sales of same.
At that time, Mr. Guidi was the manager of the Newark plant.
Diamond Shamrock's concern with the loss of two sizeable customers, Riverdale Chemical and Quaker City Tree, both of whom complained of chloracne problems with the use of the final products sold to them by Diamond Shamrock. The dermatological problem was so severe to the employees of these companies that Diamond lost them as customers.
7. Considering Diamond Shamrock's concern over the l customers because of health hazards and the use of their esters, it is not surprising that we see Francis Kennedy and Edward Lee Chandler on a list of invitees to the now infamous Dow-Midland Conference of March 24, 1965,
In that invitation Rowe directly addresses the toxicological problems caused by the presence of certain highly toxic impurities in certain samples of 2,4,5-T. He does not confine these problems to any single company, but rather admits that the problem was industry-wide and that the
10000
27-APR-83 DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION MEMORANDUM page 4
purpose of the meeting itself was to deal with the toxicological and analytical aspects of this problem. It is indisputable that as of that date, Dow had possessed a method of analysis which it was willing to share with the invitees throughout the industry. Dr. Chandler never denied receiving this letter from Rowe, or in fact speaking to Rowe prior to his attendance at the meeting. He readily admitted attending this meeting.
xt is obvious, first, that Dow Chemical was sharxng with the rest of the industry the severe health hazards; secondly, Dow advised the industry that they had identified the causative agent as dioxin; thirdly, Dow had developed a new analytical method with a sensitivity level of 1 ppm; fourthly, Dow advised the industry of its intention to set a limit at that time of 1 ppm dioxin on this material; fifthly, Chandler admits that Dow had analyzed materials from other companies including Diamond Shamrock and found amounts as high as 10 ppu. of dioxin in the 2,4,5-T acid. The last paragraph in this exhibit reconfirms the purpose, industry-wide, of the Midland meeting of March 24, 1965, where Mr. Chandler concludes
Having
considered the universiality of the health problem of 2,4,5-T esters
and the- need throughout the industry to cooperate to some extent to alleviate this problem,, what steps, if any, did Diamond Shamrock take
to eliminate the contaminant dioxin from the T ester which comprised half of the Agent Orange product. Kennedy returned to the Newark
Plant after attending the Dow conference at Midland on March 24, 1965
with the knowledge that there was a problem involving dioxin that had
to be solved Mr. Kennedy
Incidentally, kept abreast of the chemical literature
and he never came across the results of the Dow-Midland meeting in any
10C01
27-APR-83 DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION MEMORANDUM page 5
of the literature never saw a report of the meeting anywhere other than Edward Lee Chandler's report
8. It is significant that from the time Dow gave Diamond Shamrock the means of analyzing its product in March of 1965, it was not until September of 1967 that a purification column was installed on the production floor and put into use
Lastly, and perhaps most significantly, by Diamond Shamrock's own analysis from January to March of 1968, it was running 3.8 ppm dioxin and related compounds in its 2,4,5-TCP. In October through December 1968, it ran 9 ppm. Nevertheless, production continued, and the product was sold to the government. In the affidavit of Francis R. Kennedy, sworn to March 27, 1980, he speaks eloquently of the government's need for Agent Orange, but is absolutely silent on Diamond Shamrock's need for purification of a contaminated product that it knew that it was selling to the government without disclosure of the contamination problems. What effect, if any, does the performance of Diamond Shamrock corporation have on the moving parties herein? Did the concern expressed by Dow in the Midland meeting in March of 1965 terminate its concern of the contaminant which it knew at that time was industry wide? Or in fact did the purported concern for this serious health problem continue among the various moving defendants well beyond the Dow conference? An answer to that can clearly be seen in
Mr. Farnhan was convinced that no one else in the industry had done anything to remove the contaminant from their 2,4,5-T. Dow was extremely frightened that this situation might explode.
27-APR-83 DIAMOND SHAMROCK CORPORATION MEMORANDUM page 6
Obviously, it was not the intention of Hercules, Dow, and others to disclose a problem of health to its customer, the United States Government, but rather to try and induce the industry at large to "clean-up" ("cover-up?") its product before the government found out about the health hazard. What greater evidence is needed of the conspiracy of silence where the industry admittedly knew of a health problem, unknown to the government, than Mr. Farnhan's own words of precaution that Dow is fearful if the government learned of the alarming amounts of acnegen, the entire industry would suffer.
