June 6th, 1928. Dr. Frederick B. Flinn, Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons. 437 West 59th St.e N.Y.C. Dear Dr. Flinn: This will acknowledge your letter received on May 29th, outlining some of your ideas as to a defense in our law suits. Your suggestions are good, but as you realize cannot be put into practice at this time, even though there may be occasion to at some future date. I have requested both Mr. Smith and Mr. Markley to return to us all reprints, and we in due course will return same to you. We have also asiced that Dr. Rector teturn to you the autopsy report on the Dunn case. Personally I feel that the gamma ray tests are fully as sensitive, if not more sensitive than the tests used by the oposition in this case, especially in view of their technique. It seems to me as though it is important that we should go on record as to our belief regarding the sensitiveness of our tests, and in this connection I am writing to Dr. Schlundt, suggesting that the work that he assisted in during his presence in New York, be put into form for publication. It is quite pos sible that Dr. Schlundt will have several ideas relative to the amplification of this report which we should of course carry out. Out putting this information on record at this time may prove very valuable to us at some future date - I will discuss this further with you in the near future. I trust that you will find time to proceed with the investigation of our employees now that the suits are off our hands. We are anxious to have this matter taken up as soon as convenient. lir. Lee and I wish to have luncheon with you at an early date, and will call you on the 'phone. Sincerely you HHBarker:RH Vice Presic ,
