July 16th,1931. Dr. Herman Schlundt, 303 Hicks Ave., Columbia, Mo. Dear Dr. Schlundt: With reference to the reprints of the article by Dr. Fialla and yourself - we are interested in a limited number of these only, say about four or five copies. Under separate cover I am sending you six or eight reprints of the article by Schlundt, Barker and Flinn. In esse you need more I have a few more on hand which I would be glad to send to you. I had not heard about Dr. Miner's idlness, and most sincerely hope that he recovers. I trust that you will ke- p me posted as to the progress which he makes, for it is quite probable that I will not be advised thru any other channels. The reprints of the paper on "The Dangers in Handling Radioactive Substances", were received, and I have read the paper with a great denl of interest. The subject matter is presented in a very complete manner, and is somewhat different than articles which Dr. Flinn and others interested in this subject have presented their subject matter. I am not surprised that you did not receive any specimens from Dr. Martland of Nrs. LePorte's skeleton. Dr. Martland considers his work final in this matter, and I don't believe he shows any particular desire to cooperate with others. Oftentimes examination by different people disclose additional facts which are not brought to light by one examiner - Dr. Martland, however, apparently does not take this attitude. As yet I have not made any plans for my vacation - while I may go to Colorado, a little later, still it is quite problem- atical. What are your plans for the summer? Sincerely yours, HHBarker:R Vice President.
