Sheet #2 UNITED STATES RADIUM CORPORATION - THE LUMINITE CORPORATION V. EDNA HUSSMAN April 26, 1928. Dr. R. D. Vreeland: Said he is the one who first instigated all the inves- tigations and rumpus that is now going on in courts against the United States Radium Corporation. How he first became familiar with radium poisoning was through an employee of Bamberger's, a Miss Eloanor Eckert, who fell down the stairs and injured hor limb. After a long period of disability hor condition seemingly did not respond to the medicines and treatments administered. Then realized there was something back of the girl's condition. Ex-ray pictures made of the injured part he observed, showed traces of a white shadow in the form of a long white line. Was then convinced that there was something in this girl's blood pre- venting her improvement. Obtaining her prior medical history he then questioned a.s to her occupations in previous places of em- ployment. Upon learning she had worked at the radium factory he then consulted Dr. Humphreys, Chief Surgeon of the Orange Ortho- pedic Hospital. After many examinations, ex-rays and blood tests they finally diagnosed her case as radium poisoning. The white shadow on the ex-ray, they were convinced was radium activity. Said he has complete history with ex-rays of Miss Eckert's illness, treatment, etc. on file in his offico.
