Mr. H. H. Barker,
U. S. Radium Corp.,
535 Pearl Street,
New York City, N. Y.
My dear Howard:
Two weeks have now passed since I wrote to Mr. W. A.
Curtis at his home address, Ashland, New Hampshire, with-
out having received a reply.
I mentioned to him that we would like to get from his
records an estimate of the quantity of Radithor Water
which he had used since 1925. We also suggested a plan
of conducting a series of experiments to determine the
rate at which he is eliminating radium and mesothorium.
In this letter we stated that you and Mr. Lee would doubt-
lessly be further interested in these experiments, and
that you would do your part in cooperating.
Have you had any word from Mr. Curtis since he came back
from Europe?
With very good wishes, I remain
Sincerely yours,
Herman Schlundt
