Dr. S. C.Lind,
University of Minneosta,
Minneapolis, Minn.
Dear Dr. Lind:
I aust apologize for not having answered your lettor
of January 14th before this. The principol point shich Mr. Emmer-
glick endeavored to make with reference to your article on the "
Solubility of Radiun Sulphate" was to the effect that radium sul-
phate was not,as we had endesvored to put before the court, an
entirely insoluble material. I doubt very seriously if he made
mach
of en impression upon the court's mind, principally, because the
court stated that efter the eross-exeminstion of the writer, he could
not see whore there was any difference of opinion betwean testimony
adduced and the article to which Mr. Emmerglick nos referring. Frank-
ly, I am a little bit of the opinion that the court did not appreciate
the full importance of the article. As for as allowing the article
to be introduced as a exhibit, the court denied this, and that suited
us better than to have had the article introdueed. I do not balieve
the question will be taken up any further at this time. Thanks for
your offer of reprints, but an glad to state I have several of these
in my file.
With reforence to your re-deternining the solubility of
100% sulphate, and your thought that perhaps the Radium Belge Company
would be glad to accommodate you in supplying you with material similar
to which they are preparing for international stindards; 1 am of the
opinion they would undoubtedly be pleased to help you out at a
price
of
$50.
per milligram. I would suggest your commicating with Mr.
Kearney, of the Radius Chemicol Company, il East 42nd Street, Now York
City, uno handle the distribution of redium for the Radium Belge in
the states. My suggestion as to price la based on the fect that I
know they are selling radium in rather snoll quantities at a price
of $50.
Thore has been considerable delay in the presentation of
briefs to Judge Forman due to his request for a transcript of the
testimony. As you know, the testimony was quite voluminous, and to
date same has not been completed, partly on account of one of the
stsnographers having been in court at the Hauptmann trial. He feel
