Dear Mr. Conner:

I read with interest your account of the " shock" you received from your colleague, Robert Rader. I hope that further con-versations between Mr. Rader and the attorney for the State of Delaware, Ms. Carol Delaney, Esq., have now put you at ease.

Additionally, since it is obvious that no party is free to change an admitted contention unilaterally, I can only assume that you meant to be facetious with your allegation that that was precisely what the Public Advocate has done. As to Mr. Rader's mention of nitrates and the contention's focus on salt, I have no doubt that any confusion in this regard will be resolved shortly.

As to your efforts " repeatedly" to arrange for depositions, we have-been negotiating fruitfully, and, I thought, amicably with all parties for convenient dates. As the experts are now full-time professors, convenience requires that we give due cor.cern to the academic calendar. (I have now been informed that a date in the first week of January, 1984 has been set; s'o . I trust that you will have your opportunity to question in this area.)

Sincerely yo ,
