Barker-2-1/8/32 -
I wonder whether you have on hand the
electrostatic capacity of the gamma ray instrument which
was used by the Public Health Service and also the voltages
which correspond to the scale readings. We have these data
for our instrument and if we had the same data for the in-
strument used for your measurements we would probably be in
position to calculate a calibration constant for the gamma
ray instrument.
The next series of experiments which will be
undertaken at the Elgin State Hospital have been assigned
to Dr. J. D. Neranzi. These experiments will be taken up
with about twelve to twenty patients afflicted with high
blood pressure. Dr. Neranzi told me that he would continue
the administration of radium chloride until the total do-
sages of each patient would be over one hundred and perhaps
up to two hundred micrograms.
The expenses of our trip were very modest;
we went by car and our oil, gas, car service, hotel bills,
and board, for the two of us were about $65.00.
We were pleased indeed to hear that you are
probably going to pay us a visit toward the close of this
month. We shall be ready with a new collection of antique
glass toys and other antiquities.
Sincerely yours,
Herman Schluntt
