nesses by the Consumers' League of New Jersey, an organization
interested primarily in the health of women and children in in-
dustry, which organization received the co-operation and assis-
tance of Dr. Frederick L. Hoffman, a statistician.
31. That Dr. Frederick L. Hoffman, on a purely statis-
tical basis on the ground that the complainants and their co-
workers who were similarly ill had nothing else in common than
their occupation, reported, a.s a result of his investigation,
that the workers at the United States Redium Corporation were in-
jured as a result of their occupation, presumably from radium and
mesothorium, in May 1925.
32. That Dr. Cecil K. Drinker, who was refused per-
mission to publish his report by the radium corporation which had
paid for his services, informed the Department of Labor of New
Jersey of the situation a.s reported in his report to the radium
corporation with the request that said report, which was in the
possession of the United States Radium Corporation, be demanded
by the New Jersey Department of Labor from the United States
Radium Corporation.
33. That upon demand of the Drinker report by the
Department of Lebor from the United States Redium Corporation,
the radium corporation wrote to the New Jersey Department of
Labor, sending what purported to be a copy of the Drinker report,
but which was not the Drinker report and which exonerated the
corporation so far as injury to its workers was concerned.
34. That said reply of the United States Radium Cor-
poration to the demand of the New Jersey Department of Labor
was communicated to Dr. Drinker who informed the New Jersey De-
partment of Labor that it had been deceived and a true copy of
the report was subsequently obtained by the Department of Labor
in June of 1925.
