Be l l e Cit y Ma l l e a b l e I r o n Co mpa n y Ra c in e St e e l Ca s t in g s Co mpa n y Ra c i n e .Wi s c o n s i n December 8, 1939 Dr. Robert A. Kehoe University cf Cincinnati College of Medicine General Hospital Cincinnati, Ohio Dear Dr. Kehoe s Since we last talked to you with respect to the potential lead hazard through the develop ment of the special metals, we have had some test bars made which have been submitted for the machin ing qualities. Hoviaver, we have not as yet had a complete report on their physical and machining nropertie s While these tests are being made, we thought i t might be advisable tc have your suggestions followed out on one of our men, -which happens to be the melter and possibly subjected to the greatest exposure. We have discussed this with the melter, who is more than glad to co-cperate with us. We therefore suggest that you either send the container direct to Mr. ii517 S. Quincy Avenue, Milwaukee, Yiisccnsin or to our plant and we will be glad to pass i t on to him* Vie expect to run one heat each day for a week after the container has been received. We thought that this procedure might give us some clews even though we appreciate that you would prefer to have more than just one man* -- Yours very truly, BELLE CITY MALLEABLE IRON CO.
