RECEIVED UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI MAR 2 1928 COLUMBIA DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY COPY February 21, 1928 Mr. H. H. Barker UnitedStates Radium Corporation 535 Pearl Street New York My dear Barker: I hope that you reached home safely after your long journey to Minneso ta and I hope moreover that you succeeded in putting Dr. Lind in a favorable attitude towards your problem. I shall be very much interested to hear a little more about the ou tcome of your visit with Dr. Lind Let me say that on the way home I met with even more delay than on the trip to Chicago. After we were out two hours from St. Louis we were informed that there was a wreck ahead--8 freight train had run off the track--so we were obliged to return to St. Louis and to make a long story short, I may say that we finally got home fully eight hours behind schedule. This delay has added a few dollars to the expense of the trip. I am enclosing herewith a partially item- ized statement of my exmenses and I am also enclesing some of the receipts but I guess I did not keep all 1 of them. I ex- pect to write you again with in a few days to make some comments on the mesothorium sitaation and its probable development. Sincerely yours, Signed H. schlunet HS e b
