Letters Received to H.H. Barker, April 9, 1929

UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI COLUMBIA DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY APR 111929 April 9, 1929 Mr. H. H. Barker United States Radium Corporation 535 Pearl Street New York, N. Y. My dear Howard: I have been away all of the past week, but upon my return I find your letter advising that you are sending twenty 1 microgram ampoules and ten 2 microgram ampoules. I think that this amount is quite sufficient to standardize the gamma instru- ments and I hope that Dr. Flinn will find time to make a cali- bration at an early date. I am bearing in mind that you still have $60 coming from me, but up to date I have not received any remittance of any kind from either Mr. Markley or Mr. Smith and the United States Government like wise is slow in making remittance. But I assure you that as soon as I get a check from the lawyers I shall send another statement of our account to Messrs. Markley and Smith. The Board of Curators has now taken final action on the case of Prof. Meyer and Prof. DeGraff. The latter was dismissed, but Meyer was suspended for a year without pay. Whether the University of Missouri will hereafter be recognized by sister universities as a standard modern institution remains to be seen. With very kind regards, I remain Very truly yours, Herman Schlundt Herman Schlundt HS:RO
