Kehoe Manfred Bowditch, Director Health and Safety Lead Industries Assoc. ^20 Lexington Avenue New York 17* New York My dear Manfredi I have just received your letter of March 29th rela tive to your odd visitor who alleged to have contracted lead poisoning while working at a large aircraft factory near San Francisco. I must confess that I cannot visualise just how he might have contracted lead Intoxication if he did at all as I am not familiar with the aircraft industry and therefore I don't know what the stacks are that he talks about. ` Personally it seems to be one of those cases that if you follow It up too much you may get into trouble and quite possibly the best thing to do would be to drop it unless there is some insistence on the part of someone to do otherwise. I am sending your letter to our mutual friend, Dr. Kehoe and also a copy of this letter. Maybe he will have some ideas. _ I don't know whether you are going out to the meet ing in Detroit next week but I will be there on Wednesday and Thursday and shall enjoying seeing you if you are there. With my very kindest regards, I am Yours sincerely MEDIGAL DIVISION hrraann, M. D. Medical Director
