ESTABLISHED 1824 THE E. INGRAHAM COMPANY MANUFAOTURERS OF DEC? 1928 CLOCKS AND WATCHES BRISTOL, CONN. U.S.A. December 6th, 1928. Mr. C. B. Lee, United States Radium Corp , 535 Pearl St. New York, N. Y. My dear Mr. Lee:- Was very much interested in the information that you and Mr. Barber gave us on radium poisoning and also on the general radium situation. I have taken the liberty of writing to Dr. Stoll giving him in brief your views regarding poisoning through the air. This is quite a technical subject and while it might not be of any consequence if I misstated you in any way I thought well to send you a copy of the letter so that you could correct me if any of the statements are in error. Dr. Stoll seemed quite interested and informed on the subject so that I thought he would be interested in your views which, of course, are the result of more experience with this malady than probably any other concern has had. We will be very glad to have yourself or Mr. Barber talk over any of our employees with Dr. Flinn, and particularly Miss Dube. Will also plan to have an exposed air test and a gamma ray test on Miss Dube to further check the question as to whether there is any possibility of her having absorbed any radium in any amount.
