January 26, 1928.
C.B.L. -2-
vent the girls from swallowing it or retaining it in their
mouths, and
Second, because of the oily mixture it would be much
more readily eliminated if swallowed.
Mr. Berry told me that through the influence of
Mr. Roeder and Mr. Cross Dr. Sochocky's recommendations
were overruled and the water mixture was used.
Mr. Berry expressed doubt as to whether Dr.
Sochocky would be willing to testify to these facts although
he indicated that he intended to call him as a witness. You
can readily see that testimony along this line would be
very dangerous because it would tend to establish that the
corporation knew or had reason to suspect the dangerous
character of this paint long before any cases of necrosis
developed.
I would suggest that you take up the matter with
Mr. Roeder and Mr. Cross and learn if there is any truth
at all in Dr. Sochocky's alleged statement.
Yours very truly,
JS/BAS
