PERSONAL AND CONFIDENTIAL October 21st, 1926. Mr. 0. H Granger, President, Waterbury Clock Co. Waterbury, Conn. Dear Mr. Granger:- I just had lunch with Dr. Flinn and he spoke to me about the New Haven Clock Company's intention some time ago to carry on B. special investigation on the so-called "radium necrosis" cases. According to my present recollections, at the time this investigation was proposed by the New Haven people, we suggested that inasmuch as Dr. Flinn had done a considerable amount of work, possibly Dr. Winslow, who we understand is a very close freend of Dr. Root's, might be willing to accept Dr. Flinn's work and carry on from that point. When this was mentioned to Dr. Winslow, he said that he had sufficient confidence in Dr. Flim to permit him to carry the work to a conclusion and thought it was unnecessary for the New Haven Clock Company to undertake the task. I may be wrong in this, but plan to be in New Haven Tuesday morning and will check the point carefully. I shall come to Waterbury direct from New Haven and shall be there sometime early Tuesday afternoon. Yours truly, President. CBLEE:0B lo .omeM guirswanA to notinellA 107 D% INLEKIOK
