Dear Dr. Kehoe:
I am enclosing a copy of the program as it now stands together with an abstract form, which as you see only requires brief treatment.
Availability of recent documents on Air Quality Criteria makes it particularly desirable that prime emphasis in your presentation should be directed to critical analysis and discussion of the data in these docu ments and their implications.
PHS documents on Air Quality Criteria for both particulate matter and for oxides of sulphur will be available by January 1, 1969 and may be obtained directly from Dr. Emanuel Landau, National Center for Air Pollution Control, 801 North Randolph Street, Arlington, Virginia 22203. Additional documents on oxidants (available now carbon monoxide and lead available January 15, 1969) can be obtained from Dr. John Goldsmith, Head, Air Pollution Medical Studies, Department of Public Health, Berkeley, California, who has prepared these with the assistance of the National Air Pollution Control Administration which has not yet formally issued them; the documentation on lead is still at a preliminary stage.
I would like to thank you again for your willingness to participate in this important symposium.
Sincerely yours.
