DO NOT ADDRESS THE SIGNER OF THIS LETTER OFTHE BUT ADDRESS YOUR REPLY TO BUREAU OF MEDICINE AND SURGERY CSS-jam NAVY DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, D. c. * AND REFER TO NO. OF MEDICINE 8 WASHINGTON, D. C. 19 November 1938 My dear Mr. Lee: I have been thinking over your 11 November 1938 letter for some time and am fully in accord with the opinions you express. It is obvious that the instrument used in the survey of your plant is very delicate and it should be equally obvious that considerable training would be required to qualify a man to handle such an instrument. I hope to have the pleasure of being in your plant again before we start our application of radium paint. I am convinced that you are doing a splendid job and if we do what you have already done and per- haps add a few refinements we should have no difficulty. The refinements mentioned have reference to a floor which should be less easily contaminated in event of accident. Very truly yours, C.S. Stephenson, Commander (MC), U.S. Navy. In Charge, Div. of Preventive Medicine. Mr. C. B. Lee, U.S. Radium Corporation, 535 Pearl Street, New York, N.Y.
