Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl Street, New York City. My dear Mr. Barker:-- From the enclosed bills which I have okayed after consulting with Dr. Craver, it is evident that we are facing considerable expense in the care of Miss Fryer. As you were informed from Dr. Craver's report Miss Fryer has a large tumor of some sort in the pelvis and has been suffering considerable pain. He felt that she needed hospital care and hoped it would not be over a very long period. We are writing to Dr. Humphries to ascertain if a lower rate at the hospital cannot be obtained and how long he expects her to remain in the hospital. Very sincerely yours, JE/hf James M. D. of SEP 11 1933
