ALEX. S T E W A R T DIRECTOR OP RESEARCH N ATION AL LEAD CO M PAN Y RESEARCH LABORATORIES I05 YORK STREET B R O O K L Y N !, N . Y. October 6, 1947- Dr. Robert A. Kehoe, Director, Institute of Industrial Health, Cincinnati, Ohio. Dear Dr. Kehoe: Some time ago when I was in Cincinnati I talked with your secretary about the possibility of developing a program of s tudy in connection with the toxicity of paint films. However, due to one delay or another I have not been able to write you s ooner. I wonder if you could undertake a study covering the relative toxicity of paint films. In addition to this, we now have the possibility of paints containing DDT or similar insecticides. Me do have a general program of study planned which we should like to talk over with you. In addition to our program, we should like to learn a little more about the new Institute of Industrial Health program which you are creating. In this connection we should be pleased to finance a fellowship and if you will let us know something about the cost, I should be pleased to present it to our people for approval. At your convenience we are looking forward to meeting with you. Yours very truly, Qj2a^,(j(tJ*4A4^ O0i46
