Lear Lr. Keho:
It vas a great pleasure to chat vith you during my visit to Cincinnati a few weeks back. In accordance with your request I sent you an additional supply of calcium disodium ELLA upon my return to Los Angeles. I trust that it reached you in good order.
I am wondering if you have been able to get the information on the cases treated in Panama by Lr. Kitzmiller as yet? We would be most grateful for a chance to look at these case reports or at least a summary of the results when you have been able to extract them from our Latin American neighbors.
I am sure that you have seen the report by Lr. Sidbury which appeared in the Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine recently in which he points out that oral calcium EDTA produced a definite increase in lead excretion. On the basis of this information ve are some what encouraged to carry on some; further studies vith the oral material in asymptomatic cssss. If you would be interested in having some of the tab lets to try in this connection we would certainly be happy to send them to you and would value your impression of their possible usefulness.
Thanks again for the pleasant chat while I vas in Cincinnati and for all the information you gave me.
Sincerely yours.
