Letters Received to Arthur Roeder [A. Roeder], April 15, 1925

HARVARD UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH 55 VAN DYKE STREET DEPARTMENT OF PHYSIOLOGY BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS Mr. Arthur Roeder, United States Radium Corporation, A the 15, 1925. 30 Church Street, New York City. UNITED STATES My dear Mr. Roeder: RADTUM OORP. I have considered the question of a visit to New York, but can see little gain in such a conference. I have taken the utmost pains during the past year to let you know in writing and in great detail my opinions as to the cases of necrosis which have occurred in your plant. You have told me that you hed material which rendered these opinions unwarrented and nullified our findings. I have always assured you that these assertions on your part had my most extreme interest and that I was very desirous of going over such facts as you and Mr. Viedt had accumulated, but during almost a year's time I have received nothing from you except assertions that our conclusions have been unwarranted and no evidence which in any way affects them. If you wish to send me some evidence I will give you my opinion on it as frankly as I have in all our conversations and correspondence in the past, but until you can bring me facts which bear directly on the situation I do not see that a conversation will accomplish very much. Very sincerely yours, Cecil K.D.minter Cecil K. Drinker, M.D. Professor of Physiology
