September 17,1928. Mr. c. H. Granger Waterbury Clock Company, Waterbury, Conn. Dear Mr. Granger: A Mr. Kjaer (pronounced Kare) from the Federal Department of Labor spent a large portion of last Friday at our office, and stated that he has been commiss- ioned by the Tederal Department of Labor to makre a thorough investigation into the question of possible hazards from the application of luminous material. Mr. Kjaer has the Waterbury Clock Company on his list and proposed to call on you in the near future. He also showed us a newspaper clipping wherein it stated that a Miss Joy Splittstasher (this is a name we never heard before), who formerly worked for you had died in 1926, the cause of her death being attributed to radium poisoning. He also lonows of the Miss Wall and ligs Dunn cases. Mr. Kjaer is frank, seems to be honest and not disposed to be a trouble malcer. I thought you milght be interested in this advance tip since undoubtedly you will receive a call from him. Very truly yours, CBLee :RH
