CANFIELD V. U. S. RADIUM CORP MEMORANDUM OF CONFERENCE WITH DR. RECTOR and DR. BROTHERS, this 6th day of March, 1930, supplementing previous reports as to result of physical examination of Mrs. Canfield on March 17, 1929. As a result of the physical examination made of Mrs. Canfield by these two doctors, they can find nothing functionally wrong with Mrs. Canfield. She had the full use of all her limbs and joints. She was apparently in good health. She was fair weight for her height and her age. She had successfully borne three children. She was doing all her own housework except her washing. She did not have, so far as could be determined from physical examination, any anemic condition. She ate well and slept well. She did e omplain subjectively of pain in her back, some in her jaw, some in her knees, but these alleged pains were purely sub- jective and could not be proven on physical examination. The doctors did find a number of bad teeth and a recession of the gums. A number of the teeth were loose. Knowing that Mrs. Canfield had no dental treatment since 1917, the condition of her gums and her teeth was due to lack of dental care and attention. There was nothing unusual about this waman or the condition of her mouth. On the con trary, she presented a picture which is presented by many thousands of persons year after year who failed to take care of their teeth. The pains which she complained of if she really has them, could very well be due to the poor condition of her teeth and the infection of the gums, due to the lack of care. So far as determining the cause, other than lack of dental care, the doctors will say that there
