* ** July 23, 1947. Dr. A. J. Lanza, Aaeoolate Medical Director, Metronolltan Life Insurance Company, Hew York, 10, N. Y. Dear Doctor Lanza: I am sending herewith Gardner's manuscripts as X have arranged. Joined and titled them In a proposed single publication. the: experimental report la left as It was, except for the heading* Please- pass Judgment on the title and footnote. ' His monograph outline of human asbestosis contains little If any significant material* No one else can write what he Intended without it becoming the writer's instead of Gardner's. On the other hand, the outline on experimental asbestosis is more than that. It is really a summary of Gardner1 s observations and is valuable and publishable as it stands. I have put a heading on that part, deleted section 1, on "Methods*, and renumbered the other sections. The whole makes somewhat of a bulky publica tion, but X believe that you can induce the Journal of Industrial Hygiene to take it in this form. If not, let's split it into two* X am sending the detached Fart X of the Out line alSe, in order that you may see what X mean. Please consult with such others at Saranac as you should and with the Absestos people, if that is in order. Feel free to reject any idea of mine which -does not seem best and crltialze freely. With best personal regards, I am Sincerely yours. KHL:kbp Kenneth M. Lynch, M. D - V* Dr Lanza, Page 2 - July 23, 1947 P. S. I an retaining for the present the other mat erial sent me. Can someone at Saranac reddily supply the references in the manuscript? I am a bit short on time. Should Cummings be in this? ( EKL. (
