OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BUREAU OF MINES WASHINGTON July 23, 1940. Robert A. Kehoe, M. D., Kettering Laboratory of Applied Physiology, Eden Avenue, Cincinnati, Ohio. Dear Doctor Kehoe: I regret that it was not practicable for me to remain in New York during the meetings of the As sociation of Industrial Physicians and Surgeons and the American Medical Association. As to the knotty problems that you are coming upon in connection with tetraethyl lead and etyhl gasoline, I will be glad to discuss them with you at any time that is mutually agreeable. I am of the opinion that Dr. L. R. Thompson, of the Public HealthService, and Dr. P. A. Neal will probably be in the best position to discuss these from your viewpoint. As you know. Doctor Thompson was associated with this work almost at its inception, and he is now Director of the National Institute of Health of the Public Health Service. Assuring you that I will be glad to be helpful in every way practicable, I am, Cordially yours. PP.S: SFH Director. KE 000921 0
