October 18th,1928. Dr. Herbert N. McCoy, c/o Lindsay Light Company. 161 E. Grand Ave., Chicago, Ill. Dear lir. McCoy: With further reference to your letter of September 26th, and ours of October lst: We regret to say that we do not see any possible plan in the near future whereby we might be able to work your mesothorium residues. The Belgians are cooperating very nicely with us, and of course insist on using radium, since they seem to have an abundant supply. We certainly regret our mability to encourage you in this matter, and we suggest that if you have an opportun- ity to dispose of these residues that you do so without furisher regard to US. of course, if conditions should ever dhange whereby we could see our way clear to again use mesothorium, you would naturally be one of the first persons whom we would approach. Trusting that this finds you enjoying Chicago, I remain Sincerely yours, President. CBLee:RH
