March 15, 1929.
Honorable William Clark,
United States District Court,
Newark, N.J.
My dear Judge Clark:
The Commission in the case of the five women
under our care, in accordance with an agreement with the U. S. Radium
Corporation, have not formulated any report of their investigation.
Their study of these cases is still in progress and not yet complete.
We are now engaged in the examination of the radio activity of urine and
feces.
The physical tests in these matters are so extremely
delicate, that the Commission is taking every possible precaution to
exclude sources of error. I may say, for the present, that we have not
found evidence which justifies us in terminating the agreement with the
U. S. Radium Corporation, but further than this we are unwilling to go.
Sincerely yours,
James Ewing.
