ITEM 4.   Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On February 7, 2000, the Company  appointed Jones Jensen & Co. ("Jones  Jensen")
to replace Andersen & Andersen LLP  ("Andersen") as independent  auditors of the
Company for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1998 and subsequent periods.

This change was required  because  Kevin R.  Andersen,  a principal in Andersen,
accepted the position of Chief Financial Officer of the Company in June 1998.

The report of Andersen on the Company's  consolidated  financial  statements for
the years ended  December  31,  1997 and 1996  contained  no adverse  opinion or
disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit
scope or  accounting  principle,  except  that such  report on the  consolidated
financial  statements  included an  explanatory  paragraph  with  respect to the
Company being in the development stage and its having suffered  recurring losses
which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

The decision to engage Jones Jensen as the  Company's  independent  auditors was
approved by the Company's board of directors.

In  connection  with the audits for the years ended  December 31, 1997 and 1996,
and through June 30, 1998, the Company had no disagreements with Andersen on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing  scope  or  procedure,  which  disagreements  if  not  resolved  to the
satisfaction  of Andersen would have caused it to make reference  thereto in its
report on the consolidated financial statements for 1997 and 1996.

During the years ended  December  31, 1997 and 1996,  and through June 30, 1998,
there  have been no  reportable  events  (as  defined  in Item  304(a)(1)(v)  of
Regulation S-K).

Andersen has provided to the Company a letter  addressed to the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission stating that it has reviewed the disclosure provided in this
section of this  report on Form 8-K and has no  disagreement  with the  relevant
portions of this  disclosure,  pursuant to the requirements of Item 304(a)(3) of
Regulation S-K. A copy of such letter, dated as of June 11, 1998, is filed as an
Exhibit to this report.

To Whom It May Concern:

We have been  furnished  with a copy of the  response to Item 9 of the Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1998, to be filed by our former client  Medizone
International,  Inc. We agree with the statements  made in response to that Item
insofar as they relate to our firm.

Very truly yours,

Andersen Andersen & Strong, L.C.
