March 9, 1926.
Radium Health Laboratories,
1614 W. Washington Boulevard,
Los Angeles, California.
Attention - Mrs. Clair Charles.
Dear Mrs. Charles:
We have your letter of March 1st, regarding the article
in the American Weekly of February 28th. This article appear-
ed in all the Hearst papers and brings the far reaching effects
of such publicity. As far as combating such articles in the
press, it is rather generally conceded that such a mentod is
unfevorable. It merely keeps the argument going in the public
mind.
We understand Dr. Flinn's report is practically completed
and will be ready for publication shortly. This report will em-
body conclusions from a painstaking and impartial investigation.
We will advise you as soon as the report is ready. There have
been no further developments with respect to the damage suits
mentioned in your letter.
The writer has personally talked with several physicians
who have given radium internally for many years and none of them
are inclined to give credence to current rumors.
Very truly yours,
General Sales Manager.
