Copy for Mr. H.H. Barker. DEPARTMENT OF PATHOLOGY CORNELL UNIVERSITY MEDICAL COLLEGE FIRST AVENUE AND 28TH STREET NEW YORK March 15, 1929. Honorable William Clark, United States District Court, Newark, N.J. My dear Judge Clark: The Commission in the case of the five women under our care, in accordance with an agreement with the U. S. Radium Corporation, have not formulated any report of their investigation. Their study of these cazes is still in progress and not yet complete. We are now engaged in the examination of the radio activity of urine and feces. The physical tests in the se matters are so extremely delicate, that the Commission is taking every possible precaution to exclude sources of error. I may say, for the present, that we have not found evidence which justifies us in terminating the agreement with the U. S. Radium Corporation, but further than this we are unwilling to go. Sincerely yours James Ewing.
