UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI COLUMBIA JUL 22 1932 DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY July 22d, 1932 Mr. H. H. Barker United States Radium Corporation 535 Pearl Street New York City My dear Barker: You may congratulate yourself that you did not accept our invitation to make a trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas, for it has been quite hot here all during July. The temperatures running between 95 and 100 every day are fortunately relieved by nights which are sufficiently cool for sleeping. We have not made the trip to Hot Springs yet, but expect to start out either tomorrow or Sunday. One of the boys, Mr. Lloyd Thomas, who graduated here two or three years ago and who has been with Lind during the past year, will a c - company me on the trip. We have calibrated a new quartz bi-filar electroscope which we have received from Gunthor & Tegetmeyer and it seema to withstand all temptation to collapse on account of insulation troubles. I think we shall probably not stay more than a week or ten days at Hot Springs for we are very anxious to get started for Yellowstone. Dr. Lind and Mrs. Lind are making a trip to Yellowstone between August 10th and 20th and we ex- pect to see him in the park. Later we shall all try to meet again in Denver for the meeting of the Amerioan Chemical Society. I thank you for the copy of the patent which you sent. I shall put it down as one of my contributions to science, but I suppose some people here in Columbia probably think I will reap $100,000. as bonus from this patent. Sincerely yours, Herman Schlundt Herman Schlundt. hs.as
