Mr. Clinton H. Crane. St. Joseph Lead Co. 250 Park Ave. Lew York, UV A\ -L My dear Mr. Crane: I am sorry if you expected to hear from me after our pleasant luncheon in hew York, hut I thought that probably I had better wait to hear from you, as I did not want to be too in sistent about further financing of the lead studies. As a result I was very glad to receive your letter today assuring us of this further financing, We will at once get to work and arrange for a team to continue our studies, and whenever it is convenient for you to send the first $5000.00 it would be very nice to have it on hand to defary expenses as they arise. Of course we appreciate your generosity very -much and wish to thank you and your associates. We only hope that the work will continue to give as positive results. . *1 want to thank you again for the pleasure I had _. ft*;.' :: in both meeting you and the others at luncheon. I shall keep you informed as.hew work is finished and shall send you reprints of the 'various publications as they appear. Very sincerely yours, (Signed) Joseph C. Aub.

CONSULTATIONS BY APPOINTMENT February 25, 1926 nr bnviQ md. sail Farvard Medical School Longwood Ave. Boston, Aass, My dear hr. 3d sail: My understanding of the lead fund, v/as that it was given for t>e study of lead poisoning without any strings at tached, and that the additional 05000.00 was given on the same basis as the original money, so that I think it would be perfectly justifiable to use it for such a trip as the Spray Painting Commit tee. It is certainly a thing the manufacturers are probably more interested in anyhow as it is distinctly a practical matter, I therefore assume that you'think it is per fectly proper for me to use some of it for this trip.
