by the Company, and he said of course not, but that he was
absolutely honest and would turn over to us any money which
he received from them.
He again said that he had to have
the money and that if we did not "play ball" with him, he would
sue his patients and have them sue us.
He said that his charges were very reasonable and that
he had no intention of gouging us, but that the $10,000. payment
was essential
He again stated that he could testify that a
particular case was the result of pyorrhea or necrosis, and that
he could get away with anything he wanted as these things were
little understood.
He then referred to a girl who had been one of his
patients and who got paralysis of the face.
Her father
threatened to sue him, but he said that he told the father
that if he brought suit, he and his wife would be on the
stand asked whether they had ever had syphilis or gonorrhea.
He said that he told the father that he would break up his
home and that no suit was brought. He said that this would
show us that he could be as ferocious as a lion if he were
not properly treated.
I then asked him if the payment of $10,000. would
determine whether he would be for the Company or against it,
and he said that it would.
At this point Mr. Roeder stated that he thought the
proposition immoral and that the Company would have nothing to
do with it. Dr. Knef then gathered up his papers and left,
saying that we would hear from him later.
