August 20, 1951 Mr. Manfred Bovditch Director of Health and Safety Lead Industries Association 420 Lexington Avenue Nev York City 17 Dear Manfredi I shall keep you informed on the course of events on the childhood lead poisoning problem. Things are shaping up. I appreciate your situation on the financial side. Perhaps the best procedure is to let the vork go on until it has made some progress. When your budget year comes around you can consider what you wish to do and vhat can reasonably be done, in the light of vhat has been done and vhat the future promises. I von * t heckle you about it, but I strongly suspect that your people vill be concerned. Whether or not it vill be in their interest to participate vill be theirs to decide on the basis of vhat trans pires . /> Sincerely yours. F.AK ef Robert 'A. &ehoe, l3.
