EXTRA COPY. January 8th, 1926. Dr. Norman M. Smith, 3014 Hennepin Avenue, Minneapolis, Minn. Dear Doctor:- Replying to your letter of December 28th, we are familiar with the press clipping that you have reference to with regard to radium luminous material in the painting of watches, clocks, etc. A suit is now pending and very thorough investigations have for some time been in progress. We are of the opinion that radium will be given a clean bill of health. Radium has been administered internally for a number of years, apparently without injury to patients. Very truly yours, GENERAL SALES MANAGER. JMStrong-NG.
