June 5th,1928. Dr. R. B. Moore, Dean of Science, Furdue University, Lafayette, Indiana. Dear Dr. Moore: It is my pleasure to advise that our suits have been settled and that all further court proceedings in this case are called off. We don't feel any great amount of pride in the settle- ment of these cases, as we have a feeling that the complainants complaints are rather far-fetched, but realize that public opinion has been formulated against us to such an extent that a trial before a jury would result in rather large damages, regardless of the true merits of the case. We have bought our peace for the present, but how long we shall continue to have such peace is problematical, and sooner or later we will undoubtedly have to go to the mat on this problem or close our doors. My personal feeling is that there should be a means of attaining justice on problems such as this, and that when you are made a victim of circumstances such as we have been, there should be a means of redress, but at the moment I do not feel that such is the case. When in New York prior to sailing for Europe we would be glad to hear from you in case your time will permit. With best wishes, we remain Sincerely yours, HH Pafker:RH Vice President.
