Letters Sent to Dr. Herman Schlundt, November 26, 1929

November 26th,1929. Dr. Herman Schlundt, University of Missouri, Columbia, ão. Dear Dr. Schlundt: Both lir. Armstrong and Dr. John seem to be rather anxious for a summary of the data taken while we were in Chicago, and I am again calling this to your attention for 1 presume that they will continue to make inquiry until some information has been received. 1 would suggest that copies of whatever information you see fit to send these gentlemen be sent to both Dr. John and Mr. Armstrong.

Even on the second day when I examined the young men it was just as active." This letter was occasioned by some tests which he made on one of our employees engaged in the application of luminous material to watch dials, and was made after my return to New York. I feel quite satisfied that the best procedure for us to follow is to treat Dr. Flinn most courteous whenever he has occasion to consult with us, but that we should give careful consideration before presenting any
