RECEIVED FREDERIC J. FAULKS Lindabury, DEPUE & FAULKS J. EDWARD ASHMEAD JOSIAH STRYKER JOHN W. BISHOP, JR. PRUDENTIAL BUILDING TELEPHONE WALTER D. BARKER MULBERRY 1755 JAMES E. M. TAMS 763 BROAD street, newark, N.J. BURTIS S. HORNER July 8th, 1927. C. B. Lee, Esq., President, United States Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl Street, New York City. Schaub V. United States Radium Corporation-3836 LDF. Dear Mr. Lee:- I am enclosing herewith copy of letter mailed today to Mr. Markley. Yours very truly, Enclosure JS:M RECEIVED July 8th, 1927. LUMINOUS Edward A. Markley, Esq., c/o Messrs. Collins & Corbin, MATERIAL CORP. 1 Exchange Place, Jersey City, N. J. No. 3836 LDF. Dear Mr. Markley:- Receipt is acknowledged of your letter of the 7th inst. containing copy of your answer in the case of Schaub V. United States Radium Corporation, and also memoranda of various telephone conversations. I wish to correct the memoranda in some perhaps unimportant respects. Your statement that The Luminite Corporation is not a subsidiary of the United States Radium Corporation or an allied company is correct so far as my knowledge goes. I am also under the impression that Mr. Leslie Fort, who is a sonof former Gov. Fort, is the Pres- ident of the company, although I am not sure whether he occupies that or some other office. Messrs. Child & Shipman, who represent the company in this litigation, do not repre- sent any insurance companies. As to whether the company had insurance or not is a matter of which I am not competent to speak. I assume that Mr. Lee will give you the informa- tion which you request in this memoranda. I note what you say with regard to the liability of the Aetna Company for any recovery in the Schaub and Freyer cases. Both I and my client regard this as a statement of (E.A.M.,Esq.,7/8/27) 2 the position taken by your company and that you are bringing this now to our attention so that we will not infer from the fact that your company is defending the case that it will not be free to raise this question if and when it becomes necessary so to do. I do not understand, however, that you are asking us at this time to agree to limitations on your client's lia- bility as that, of course, would be very difficult in view of the uncertainty as to what the evidence will disclose. Yours very truly, Josiah Stryker JS:M
