        I made the following transcript from a tape recording 
        of a broadcast by Pacifica Radio Network station

GARY NULL:
At Columbia University Hospital, Presbyterian Hospital and
Montefiore Hospital in New York [City], during the late 50s,       
twelve cancer patients were injected with radioactive calcium and
strontium -- to see what it would do.

These experiments and others -- many others -- have to raise some
questions. Did Government agencies fund or sponsor programs which
cross the line that no scientific researcher can ever be permitted
to traverse?  Did American scientists mimic the kind of demented
human experiments conducted by the Nazis?  Unfortunately, the
answer is yes. But nothing will happen to them -- then or today.
The nuclear medical experiments fell into two general categories.
In the first group, human subjects were injected or fed radioactive
material in order that its passage through the body could be
monitored. The major objective of these experiments was to compare
the physiological reactions with computer-generated mathematical
models that estimate the effect of various doses of radiation on 
the body.

Now, although these experiments did provide information on the
retention and absorption of radioactive material by the human body,
the experiments were nonetheless repugnant because human subjects
were essentially used as guinea pigs and as calibration devices.

In the second group of experiments, radioactive material was
actually INTENDED to cause damage to the human body, and the
experimenters sought to correlate the amount of damage done with    
the dose received. In many of these experiments, the human 
subjects were captive populations or a group of individuals whom
experimenters might frighten by having considered them expendable:
the elderly and the hospital patients. In other experiments, the 
subjects were volunteers. But they were unaware of what they were
doing. They were not given full information.  For most, informed
consent was absent. Also, according to a Government report:
       
 (quote)
   "The Government covered up the nature of the experiments 
    and deceived the families of dead victims as to what
    had transpired."
 (unquote)

There's a chilling lack of humanity in the Department of Energy
documents reporting these experiments. For example, if you were to
look at the actual document that I have in my possession, here's how
it reads; and this shows you the impersonality of it:

 (quote)
   "Category 1.001, Number 1:
    Subjects were diagnosed as within ten years of death. One
    subject was a child. No evidence of informed consent. Potential
    doses of radiation much greater than occupational limits."
 (unquote)

Now what does that say beyond what it says.  First, it's just
"Category 1.001, Number 1". And it talks about a child, but there
were many subjects, one of which was a child. And they're 
estimating that the child has ten years to live?  There's no way
that any human being on Earth can tell you that you have ten years
to live. Therefore, they didn't have any informed consent -- and
they INTENTIONALLY exposed this child to FAR greater doses of
radiation than what would be considered occupational limits which,  
in itself, was considered high. And, of course, a child's body is
not that of an adult; and the occupational limit is based upon an
adult threshold. A child's threshold is much, much smaller. So, for
the child, they were giving, in effect, lethal doses of radiation.
They KILLED the child !

But, again -- anything you do in the United States Government, in
the name of security or science, is forgiven. You will not and 
cannot, by law, be held accountable.  You're indemnified.

 (quote)
   "Category 1.003, Number 119:
    Subjects were hospital patients.  Some doses of radiation
    produced kidney damage."                                 
 (unquote)
   
 (quote)
   "Category 11.001, Number 173:
    Radioactive iodine was INTENTIONALLY released into 
    the environment."
 (unquote)

Mind you -- these are SECRET Government reports that I managed to
get from the different agencies, and I have independently verified
them.  Here they're admitting that they INTENTIONALLY released 
radiation into the environment -- to see what happens.

Now, the details beyond the "Category and Number" classifications
are even less reassuring.  Just what does "Category 1.001, Number 1"
mean?  In the body of the text, we read, under the heading 
"Plutonium Injections Into Humans", that during a two-year period,
eighteen patients were injected with plutonium. Now these
experiments were carried out under the "Manhattan Project", 
a consortium of American scientists, military and Government
officials who gave us the atomic bomb. A number of well-known
hospitals were involved, including Strong-Moore[sp] Hospital in
Rochester, New York, Billings Hospital, the University of Chicago,
University Hospital, University of California, San Francisco.

So, as you see -- and to the gentleman who called yesterday --
your hospital was one!  You wouldn't have known that. But I'm 
showing you what the actual documents say. 

The rationale for these experiments was that accurate information
was supposedly needed on the retention and excretion of 

 (quote)
   "internally-deposited plutonium"
 (unquote)

so that the researchers could set some standards. The information
was supposedly needed because workers at the "Manhattan Project"
handled plutonium and, therefore, they wanted to know what amount
would affect them. Animal experiments had produced conflicting     
data, and they felt that they needed to have humans to have the
right data.  Alright. If you're going to conduct experiments on
humans, then who do you choose to inject with deadly, radioactive
plutonium?  Now, the original criteria -- according to the
documents that I've obtained -- specify that subjects

 (quote)
   "should be older, with relatively shorter life expectancies."
 (unquote)

Well, who determines that?  There's no way of determining that.
Yet, all subjects chosen were diagnosed as having diseases that
gave them an expected survival rate of at least ten years. Most of
the subjects were over forty-five, but one was only five-years-old.

        If you agree that this information is vital to the defense and 
        the preservation of our free society, please help to disseminate
        it by posting it to other bulletin boards and by posting
        hardcopies in public places, both on and off campus.

If we seriously listen to this "God within us" ["conscience",
if you will], we usually find ourselves being urged to take the
more difficult path, the path of more effort rather than less.
.... Each and every one of us, more or less frequently, will hold
back from this work. .... Like every one of our ancestors before
us, we are all lazy. So original sin does exist; it is our laziness.
