FILE NAME: ALCOA (ALC) DATE: 1945 Jan 9 DOC#: ALC071 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION: Letter Dr. Leroy U, Gardner, Director Saranac Laboratory Saranac Lake, N.Y. Dear Leroy: The Compensation Commission for the State of Arkansas refused to reopen the ease which I discussed with you over the telephone when you were in Boston some three weeks ago. You will recall that you believed you would be available to appear before the Commission on or about March 1st. Due to the refusal of the Commission to reopen this case, your personal appearance will not be necessary* fortunate from your standpoint but unfortunate from ours. I greatly appreciated your offer to help us out in Arkansas and will probably be making a similar request again in the future, I wonder if you would be good enough to let me know the date which would be most convenient to you during your visit to Chicago in February to talk over the matter of the experimental .work you have been carrying on for the Company. With best personal regards, I am Sincerely yours, - - ----- Dudley Irwin Medical Director l ALUMINUM COMPANY OF AMERICA
