The Saraxac Iaboratory FOR THE STUDY OF TUBERCULOSIS OF THE EDWARD U TJWOfcAU PCUHDAftOW SAJUKaC UtE. N.Y. March 13, 1943 Hr, dward C. Aae* Fibregla* Corporation Toledo, Ohio / Dear Hr. Ames: In the laat group of X-ray films which we received from your Company, there were several caaee that require comment, Possible, these are all preemployment examinations. I i&ari** that such is the Case in view of the variety of pathological conditions detected. R,, SnocX shows a reaction strongly suggestive of asbeetosie although of course, I isov nothing about the possibility of his previous exposure. I do not think he should be accepted for employment, 0. Dodson has what is probably a cardiac con dition although there night be a tutor. He un doubtedly would be eliminated. J. Kaylcr shows a very large heart shadow which may be due to disease of this organ in the peri cardial section or about it. I imagine he oust have symptoms which aight prevent him doing nuch work. Z. Davig has a large calcified mass in the pleura which may have been due to ar. old e=?yena. As far as the flic is concerned, 1 see no reason why he could not be put to work at most any lob. C. Donahue shows a well marked eJargeration of the vascular pattern, chronic pleurisy over the left lung and calcified tubercles* He cculd probably ycrk in places not exposed to duet. Charles Hare shews enough evidence of cardiac in volvement to cake his working doubtful. J *j VW-1052 * *. DHUIt *.*V Hr. Edward C. Ames 2- Karch 13, 1943 Holbert Bella has a ciliary calcification with ex tensive involvement of the 17nph nodes at the root of his lung. There Is nothing in this condition whiteh would prevent his employment, tut 1 would not put his in any place where there is too such dust. However, someone might try to make capital out of his film in case of future litigation. I as not sure whether you want us to comment on these cases but in times when labor la so scarce, I realise one Is undountedly anxious to employ anyone you can safely accept. I was pleased to know of the disposition of the two previous cases with active pulmonary tuberculosis. Very truly yours, UJSjKBH Leroy U. &ar director 01 SOI 161l T PLAINTIFF'S^ f EXHIBIT ! 4212.0 * N p, z.0% Z
