Letters Sent to Josiah Stryker, May 12, 1925

May 12,1925. Mr. Josiah Stryker, c/o Lindabury, Depue & Faulls, Prudential Building, 763 Broad St., Newark, N. J. Dear Mr. Stryker: Since our last evening meeting, I have not been able to see Dr. Field, but hope to meet with him very soon. In the meantime, however, I had a talle with Dr. Reitter of Bast Orange. He is interested in the situation at the Plant because he is a Radizun specialist and worla quite extensively with our reserve stock of Element. Dr. Reitter suggested that we get in touch with a Dr. Robert Ives of the University Hospital, Philadelphia, Dr. Ives is a dentist of wide reputation and according to Dr. Reitter's information he has inspected one of the cases of mouth trouble and has some rather definite opinions that Reitter thinks would benefit us. He also suggests that if no one has secured the assistance of Dr. Martland, pathologist at the City llospital, Newark, that it would be well to do so. Reitter, however, suggested that tre did not approach Martland direct, but allow him to malce inquiry which he is doing. Yesterday afternoon I received a visit from Carroll M . Salls, Ph. De, New Yorl State Department of Labor. He wented to ascertain the chemical nature of luminous material. lle says that there was an operator at the Ansonia Clock Company in Brooldlyn who reported suffering from Radium, but it apparently was a case of norves resulting from the recent jublicity. The Ansonia people told him that she had a sore throat. Sails also said that he had an indirect report of a case of jaw necrosis recently in one of the watch factories in the Connecticut Valley. I will try to run this dom and get details, if any. I presume that the asse wasnot brought forward at the hearing last Saturday since I have heard nothing from you or lr. MeGlyn. Yours truly, President. ARoeder-HI P. S. Dr. Reitter is quite sure that the dentist at the University Hospital is Dr. Ives although it may be Ivey. - AR -
