BOEHLER JERSEY CITY. N. J. PATRICK F. MC DEVITT JOHN F. LEONARD JOHN P. GILMARTIN May 19, 1931. Ruth Saxer v. U. S. Radium Corp. C. B. Lee, Esq. , Pres. U. S. Radium Corp , 535 Pearl Street, New York City. Dear Mr. Lee: Herewith copy of letter to Mrs. Saxer of the 16th inst. together with my reply. Please advise me what further offer, if any, you wish me to make at this time. There are two views in the matter. One would be to refuse to make any further offer and stand on the 5000. The other would be to increase it somewhat, al- though I doubt whether we ought to go as high as our authority of $8000. You will note that Mrs. Saxer says she feels she ought to have at least $5000. My own judgment is that we should not increase the $5000. until she comes down to some figure that we can accept. Evidently she and her husband want to dicker. She says $15,000. on the theory that she will probably get a split between $5000. and $15,000., or $10,000. With kindest regards, Sincerely yours, EAM: AG Strewing
