Caby sent to Dr. Jailla March 8th,1929. Dr. James Ewing, Department of Pathology, First Avenue and 28th St., N.Y.C. Dear Dr. Ewing: Under date of March 4th, I received a letter from Dr. Herman Schlundt of the University of Missouri, paragraph of which reads as follows: "I hope that you will get the Commission to endorse the suggestion made by Dr. Failla, namely, that I proceed to determine the radium content of the residues. I shall hold the residues until I receive word through you from the Commission." Dr. Bailla has undoubtedly explained the situation with regard to these samples, and we trust that you will advise us that it is satisfactory to have Dr. Schlundt proceed with this work, for we believe that the information as to the amount of radium contained in those residues will prove to be of importance in the completed analysis of this work. Sincerely yours, Vice President. HHBarkertR
