Dr. George B. Darling, 60, director of the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission since 1957, oversees the largest medical surveillance program tracking Hiroshima and Nagasaki radiological effects on 100,000 survivors. After 21 years, ABCC reports to survivors born after the bomb that they may marry and have children safely, a shift from wartime rumors and political pressure to a calm, scientific approach.
