April 9, 1925. Mr. Josiah Stryker, c/o Lindabury, Depue & Faulles, Prudential Building, 763 Broad St., Newark, N. J. Dear Mr. Stryker: An eleven page report has just been received from Dr. Gilmen Thompson. It is not as favorable as I had expected. In order to avoid delay in placing it in Mr. McGlyn's hands, I am sending it to him to-day and explaining in a note that no copy was made for you. It will be available to you at his office. Dr. Thompson makes some specific recommendations in regard to operations at the Plant, and 1 have already written Mr. Viedt sending him a copy of them, asking that they be immediately put into effect. In a good measure they have been in operation for some time. I find that a fair amount of correspondence has accumulated on the subject of this condition. I think you should review it completely. I will take it home with me and deliver it to you promptly. Another point that occurs to me is that under the circumstances should we not write to all of our customers who have application plants and explain the situation to them ? If you agree with this, will you prepare a draft of a statement ? Mr. Viedt reports over the phone this morning that the State Department of Health is desirous of having a copy of Dr. Drinker's report. He referred the matter to me. "hen I hear from the Department, I will advise them that this material is in your hands. I have also written to Dr. Drinker asking him for some X-Ray films that he had and some other material in order to have everything in one place, also arranging to meet him some time as soon as possible. It might be advisable to retain him. Yours truly, President. ARoeder-HM
