Letters Received to C.P. Lee [C.B. Lee], October 3, 1928

RECEIVER OCT 4 LAW OFFICES POTTER AND BERRY 60 PARK PLACE NEWARK, N.J. THOMAS POTTER MULBERRY 4211-4212 RAYMOND H. BERRY 11 B. EVELYN V. KRAEMER October 3, 1928. MATERIAL CORP. Mr. C. P. Lee, United States Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl Street, New York City. My dear Mr. Lee: I was consulted during the second week in September by a Mrs. Canfield who wishes action taken a- gainst the United States Radium Corporation. During the last year, Mrs. Canfield has developed a jaw condition which is similar to that of the five girls who sued and those who have died. Dr. Humphries, to whom Mrs. Canfield went, has told her within the last four months that her trouble is due to radium. I had Mrs. Canfield tested and her expiratory air is radioactive. I have had several people come to me who had formerly worked for the radium corporation and claimed to be injured as a result of their occupation, and have sent them away upon examination because I believe their claims unfounded. I recite this because I want you to know that I realize the position of the radium corpora- tion. I believe, however, that Mrs. Canfield is justly entitled to redress. Both she and her husband worked for the United States Radium Corporation. Mrs. Canfield was employed under her maiden name of "Mae Cub- berley.' She was forelady at the Newark plant before going to Orange. Would you be interested in doing any- thing in her behalf without action taken? Very truly yours, Potter & Berry By: RHB: RK
