HARVARD UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH RECEIVED JUN 18 1924 55 VAN DYKE STREET DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGY BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS C June 12, 1924. Mr. Arthur Roeder, United States Radium Corporation, 30 Church Street, New York City. UMITED STATES MDIUM CORP. Dear Mr. Roeder I thank you for your letter of June 6. We are all glad to know that you are going ahead with our recommendations. Whatever difference of opinion we may have as to the cause, it is quite clear that the general methods of safe-guard which we have advised are applicable not only against the radium question but against other possible sources of damage. I regret you will not visit us soon and do hope you will manage it sometime in the course of the summer. A note to me will always assure my presence in the office on any day you come in. I believe you would have an interesting time looking over the sort of work we do here, and in a little while there will be some results from the animals which will be of very definite importance to you. Sincerely yours, C. K.Drinker Cecil K. Drinker, M.D.
