OFFICE OF THE DEAN

Mr. Howard H. Barker
U. S. Radium Corporation
535 Pearl St.
New York City
My dear Mr. Barker:
I am inclosing a circular, which you may not have seen.
Either the "stuff" they sell is a fake or if it actually does
contain Radium and Meso-Thorium Salts, the sale of it should
be prohibited. I have written as per inclosed copy.
Naturally you would not want to do anything yourself,
but Dr. Flynn might be interested if he does not know of
this organization.
I see that you are likely to have more court trouble.
I hope not.
With kind regards,
Sincerely yours,
R. B. Moore
Dean of Science
