C 0 p I RUTHERFORD T. JOHNSTONE, M. D, Brockman Building 520 lest Seventh Street Los Angeles Hi, Calif. TUcker 2965 July 3, 1956 c 0 P 7 Ur. Manfred Bowditch Lead Industries Association ii20 Lexington New York, N. I. Dear Manfred* I have given considerable thought to your friend William U. Qieesel of Houston, Texas. The more I think of it the more futile 1 think it would be to attempt to change his thinking. He is not one who has merely erred scientifically but rather is fully convinced that, from the standpoint of economics, he is doing the right thing for his patients and his pocketbook. Possibly Jim Sterner, having known the boy, might have some influence but I doubt it. Therefore, unless you insist on my following through I will desist. Tom Shipman found out that I am to bs in Boulder, Colorado on the 23rd of July and he therefore invited me to come on ahead to visit him and then he will drive me up from Los Alamos to Boulder. Z accepted the invitation. I anticipate a pleasant journey. RTJ/rea /a/ Sincerely yours, Bed R. T. Johnstone, M.D. N2215C
