April 14, 1949 Dear Dr. Schoele: Your letter of April 8 telling us about the forthcoming Venereal Disease Campaign has been read with considerable interest. You certainly are giving the local health departments splendid cooperation. The special service to independent radio stations through the Advertising Council is not yet operating, and I doubt seriously that it can be completed in time to help you by July 1. As an alternative, and also to obtain prompt action, I suggest that your Mr. Fish get in touch with Mr. James Dawson of the National Association of Broad- casters (DEcatur 9300) and see how local radio can assist. Meanwhile, we will discuss the problem with the Advertising Council to see if some additional help can be obtained. Sincerely, John T. Gibson Dr. Leonard A. Scheele Surgeon General U. S. Public Health Service Federal Security Agency Washington 25, D. C. CURRAMY STATE A U.S.
