March 15th,1928. Mr. Josiah Stryker, c/o Lindabury, Depue & Faulks, Broad St., Newark, N.J. Re: Freyer vs. U.S.Radium Corp.#3486-LDF Dear Mr. Stryker: Answering your letter of March 12th: It seems to me that both Doctors McCoy and Schlundt have made it fairly clear in their comments on Dr. Drinker's article, and their reports which we have had from them, that they did not consider that our material was dangerous prior to the year 1924. Neither of them are willing to accept Dr. Drinker's report as conclusive proof that danger existed, although as we understand it each of them considers that Dr. Drinker's analysis sounded a warning of possible danger. I suppose the only thing to do is to have these gentlemen come on to the trial a day or so in advance so that the attorneys may check with them first hand these various points. Mr. Barker has talked with all these experts and has interpreted to our attorneys their position, but of course there is always the possibility that something vital for or against our position may be brought out when the attorneys have actual con- tact with the experts. This whole question should be thoroughly discuss- ed at our first meeting with Messrs. Markley and Smith which we hope will be at an early date. Very truly yours, President. CBLee:RH
