GREAT COMPANY GLORE GLOBE INDEMNITY COMPANY A. DUNCAN reid, PRESIDENT CASUALTY INSURANCE FIDELITY AND SURETY BONDS ADDRESS ALL COMMUNICATIONS TO THE COMPANY REPLY TO SEP 22 1930 New Jersey Legal DEPARTMENT September 20, 1930. newark, N.J. United States Radium Corporation 535 Pearl Street New York City. Attention of Mr. C. B. Lee, President. Dear Mr. Lee: In re: Mrs. Ruth Saxer. We have your letter of September 9th, which for some reason has not been acknowledged. We have had an opportunity to go over the testimony taken by Mr. Markley, and it appears that this girl worked in some of the Departments for apparently three months before she went into the dial painting department. Her testimony was that she started in the fall of 1917, and that she did a little packing to start with, and a little inspecting, and the rest painting numbers. Later on she said that she did some packing for a couple of months and inspect- ing for a month or so. If your records of either the Inspection Department or the Packing Department would throw any light on the exact period of employment in either or both of these Departments, it would be of material assistance to us. If you have no objection, will you kindly let us have this information. An article in the newspapers the other day, with reference to the death of a Mrs. Stasi, stated that Dr. Martland had a list of girls that he suspected had been affected by this substance. Have you any knowledge of any such list, and if so, would it be possible for us to obtain it? With kindest regards, I remain Very truly yours, Attorney. Cuy CSG:EW
