RECEIVE LAW OFFICES OCT 10 1928 POTTER AND BERRY 60 PARK PLACE NEWARK, N.J. THOMAS POTTER MULBERRY 4211-4212 RAYMOND H. BERRY EVELYN V. KRAEMER October 9, 1928. RADIU LUMANOUS Mr. C. B. Lee, MATERIAL CORP. United States Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl Street, New York City. My dear Mr. Lee: Permit me to acknowledge receipt of your letter of October 6th. Naturally, the name "Canfield" is unfamiliar, since, as I believe I explained in my previous letter to you, Mrs. Canfield was employed by the Radium Corporation under her maiden name of Mae Cubberley. Your records ought to show ac- curately the dates of her employment. Mrs. Canfield states that she worked for the United States Radium Corporation from on or about the middle of September, 1916, to on or about the middle of February, 1918. Mrs. Canfield first began to show the effects of radium poisoning in the latter part of the year 1926. She first went to Dr. Humphries in June of this year and was then informed, for the first time, as to the cause of her illness. The confirmatory test, to which I refer, was the usual physical examination and test of the expiratory air for radiation. She has, in addition to the common jaw infection, bone pains in the hip joints and spine. I hope that you may let me have the decision of the corporation shortly, inasmuch as delay would jeopardize Mrs. Canfield's rights. I shall, unless I have some word from you, begin action on the 15th of this month. If an amicable adjustment can be made, we can then discontinue. Very truly yours, Potter & Berry By: RHB:RK
