Letter from A. J. Lanza, Assistant Medical Director, to Dr. Emery R. Hayhurst, a consulting hygienist in Columbus, Ohio. Lanza acknowledges Hayhurst's April 12 letter and promises a copy of his paper when ready. He then asks whether anything is known about whether the men working on a West Virginia tunnel already had silicosis when they started, and asks Hayhurst's opinion on his thought that silicosis affects Black workers more rapidly, possibly because of syphilis.
