Bohroach, President, Raybestos-!?ar:hattan,Inc. , Bridgeport, Conn. yX'' Dear Mr. Tlohrbach: * / V By an Interastins coincidence 1 received your letter of April 15th on the sene day that I received advice fron Saranac Laboratory that a report on Dr. Gardners asbestos dust experiments would be submitted within approximately one month. You and Hr. Simpson will recall that our con tract with Saranac provided that the results of Dr. Gard ner's experiments would not be published unless approved In advance by the asbestos textile croup which financed the experiments. I shall be interested in yours and Hr. Simpson's ideas as to hov: \ e should proceed after the report has been received. Should v.e convene a mooting with representatives of the entire croup or should a small committee bo appointed to rev lev.' and maize recommendations? The latter would probably be preferable as it is V:-y recollection they were approximately ton contributing companies. As you are probably aware. Dr. Lanea became a Trustee of the Trudeau Foundation following Dr. Gardner's death, and ho was instrumental ir: securing the services of Dr. Kenneth Lynch, of Charleston, 1'outh Carolina, for the purpose of reviewing Dr. Gardner's experimental data, and notes and preparing the forthcoming report thereon. Please convey ;ny regards to 3.L-. Simpson. VD:y hiSincoro1y voarc, ... V and iv cr Drown , See re tarv.
