BOEHLER JAMES B. EMORY PATRICK F. MC DEVITT FRANK P. CLANCY JOHN F. LEONARD April 28, 1930. Re: Hoare vs. U. S. Radium Corp. H. H. Barker, Esq., Vice President, U. S. Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl St., New York City. Dear Mr. Barker: Herewith copy of letter from Dr. Humphries dated April 26th, together with copy of our reply of the 28th. You will note that he treated Mrs. Hoare back in June, 1928, although he made no definite diagnosis of radium poisoning. You will note that he also refers to an unnamed girl whom he is treating now whose case, he thinks, might be settled. Will you please advise me whether you are in agreement with what I said in my letter, namely, that per- haps it would be wise for you to call to see Dr. Humphries in regard to the matter. I also have in mind that perhaps we might possibly work out a settlement along the line heretofore considered in the Hoare case. All negotiations, of course, should be without prejudice in the event of con- test. A prompt reply would be appreciated, Very truly yours, EAM/LC Cambridge,
