Dear Dr. Ke hoe :
Just before I made my trip East in June, 1960, I telephoned your office for the purpose of asking you to supply us with a final report on the research work which you had persued in connection with our possible toxicity problem. When I arrived at the Biltmore Hotek in Payton, Ohio, I received ycur very comprehensive report of June 10, 1960. Please let us assure you that we were most gratified with the results of your workand with your con clusions concern ing any undue hazard connected with occupational uses of our Wy n n 's Friction Proofing products.
This particular question has long been of great interest to us and in the light of your work we consider that this problem has been disposed of in a most satisfactory manner. This information should be passed on to a restricted group of representatives of the Wynn Oil Company because this question has a very definite bearing on the sale and use of our Wyn n 's Friction Proofing products, parti cularly in industrial applications.
We would like to send a condensed conclusion of this work to our Distributors so that if this question is brought un in connection with their activities they will be in possession of some reliable information on the subject.
We would like to have your permission to issue a Technical Information Bulletin to our field representatives in which we would merely state that we retained the services of the Kettering Laboratories in the person of Robert A. Kehoe, M. D. to determine whether or not any un due hazards existed through the possible absorption of Wy n n 's Friction Proofing products through the skin of individuals using our products. Further, we would like to state that at the conclusion of your re search activities you had expressed yourself as being satisfied that no undue occupational hazards existed through the handling or coming in contact with Wynn's Friction Proofing products. We could quote verbatim the conclusion which you included on page 2 of your letter of June 2.

Kindest personal regards.
