Dear Dr. Kehoe:
.. ,
On July 20th I called on Mr. M. G. Krause of the Pure Oil Company terminal at Southside and Galian Avenue, Cincinnati, Ohio to inspect their facilities for canning Vitol. The Pure Oil Company sent Mr, A. de Tarnowsky, their safety manager, to participate in the inspection. We all agreed that their facilities were at least adequate and Mr. Krause consented to your control of the operation to insure his employees against any danger from methanol and lead poisoning.
I know you will be busy with work accumulated during your vacation but possibly you will be free to call at the Pure Oil terminal with me on July 29th or 30th for an inspection of the canning facilities and a discussion _of the control to be established by your laboratory. I will telephone you on ^Tuesday, July 27th for an agreement on the day for our visit.
- Enclosed you will find a photostat of the quart-can label. In addi tih. to the warning shown, we have included a "flammability" caution and also the__following statement:
r - "After opening remove entire contents".
Because of the short time available to lithograph the cans we have |^o?waid.ed.his copy to the Pure Oil Company. However, if you feel that changes l ^ ^ ^ ^ t b e -made we will do our best to have them incorporated.
-- - -- -our Legal Department has prepared the contract for your work with us
and it awaits Mr. A. T. Colwell's signature. I hope to bring the signed
contract and check for the initial payment of $5,000 when I call next week.

Best regards.
Sincerely,
