ETHYL CORPORATION 100 PARK AVENUE BUI LDI NG PARK AVENUE AT 41st STREET NEW YORK 17, N. Y. August 4, 1950 Dr. K. V. Kitzmiller Kettering LaboratoryUniversity of Cincinnati Cincinnati 19, Ohio Dear Karl: While Dr. Kehoe was in town I called to his attention some experimental work being done by the Prentis-Wabers Products Company, Wisconsin Ptapids, Wisconsin. This company is experi-- menting with field ranges using gasoline as a fuel for the ' Quartermaster Corps. Dr. Kehoe feels that the Medical Department should look into this experimental program not only to determine whether or not personnel doing the blending should be examined, but also for any hazard that may result in the burning of the fuel and the disposition of the filters. He indicated that Mr. Cholak was familiar with work done along this line during the last war and suggested that y o u discuss this with him. If we can do anything further for y o u in this regard, please advise. Tilth kindest personal regards, f Co , L. R. Fleck KE 000956 \ // 'J
