DEC'S 1930 UNIVERSITY OF missouri DEC 3 1930 COLUMBIA DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY December 1, 1930 Mr. H. H. Barker United States Radium Corporation 535 Pearl Street New York City, New York My dear Barker: The date set for the trial of Mrs. Metz and Mrs. Tuck is the date for the opening of the University after the holidays, but nevertheless, I hope to be able to arrange to be present at the trial. I know that I can be on hand to conduct another expired air test on Mrs. Metz on the third of January and perhaps on the second. I infer from your letter than plans are on foot for making a settlement with Mrs. Tuck; if this settle- ment could be virtually completed by the date on which the trial is scheduled, I think this point could be made a very effective one in the plea to the jury. Such a settlement would give a clear indication of the policy of your company to do its part in making adjustments. I am, of course, hop- ing that the test of the expired air of Mrs. Metz will turn out negative. If these two findings could be properly con- trasted and brought effectively before the jury, I would feel more hopeful of getting a favorable decision. With very kindest regards, I remain, Very sincerely yours, Herman Schlundt Herman Schlundt HS:AS If gon know Kithell's address, please fovor me with it -
