A one-page letter of April 5, 1940, from Dr. Leroy U. Gardner, director of Saranac Laboratory, answering Sumner Simpson's letter of April 2. Gardner said he planned "a more or less general talk for the medical practicioner" at Hartford and enclosed an outline. "Under non-specific dusts I shall consider everything except free silica and asbestos. These two will be treated individually." He added that he could not go into much detail in half an hour, and that he had just spent a month in Mexico.
