The Kettering Laboratory of the University of Cincinnati,has maintained a file of the comprehensive literature on this subject for the past forty years, and during the past twenty years has prepared abstracts for distribution to the members of its staff. These abstracts are not intended to be evaluations of the published material. In view of the constantly increasing volume of literature, they serve rather to bring the publications, in a condensed fora, to the attention of the investigators of the physiology and toxicology of lead and its compounds. About 1000 medical and specialized Journals ore under continuous review. This includes the publications of the principal abstracting and indexing services to assure coverage of the global literature. Now as a health Information service, the abstracts are being published by the Lead Industries Association and made available to Interested members, the medical profession and public health officials. The material included in the first volume covers acme articles published in 1964 considered to be of interest and such earlier publications in journals not scanned regularly as appearr- in the issues of the abstracting and Indexing services published in 1965. In most cases the original articles, books or journals ore on file in the Kettering Laboratory Library, where facsimile copies can be obtained at a nominal charge to cover reproduction of the material. In the case of foreign language source material, arrangements for translations can be made through the Librarian, Kettering Laboratory, College of Medicine, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio, 45219. Additional copies of the abstracts can bo obtained from the Lead Industries Association at a nominal charge to cover postage and handling.

Dear Donj I enclose herewith the wording of the title page, the inside of the face sheet, the preface, and the table of contents which Mrs. Campbell end 1 believe to bo satisfactory for the presentation of the Abstracts. We would welcome your comments or suggestions for changes which would accord with your own view and those of your associates. However, if these items are satisfactory at your end of the line, they can be used to put ns into formal operation. 3o much for that part of our association. There is another, more important, I think, problem in the offing. Through some fault of communi cation within University circles, I was informed, a short time ago, that Dr. Radford would not take up his responsibilities here until September first of this year, and 1 so informed you. The fact is, however, that he will be hero at the first of July, at which time my tenure as Director, will come officially, to an end. There are, as you can well believe, a number of problems to be faced st that time and meanwhile, and one of those which will be important to you people (and others). It is of importance that the work on lead be continued and doveloped further.. Or. Radford, had asked me to continue to look after this aspect of our work, and I realize that this will have to be done. It cannot continue indefinitely, or for any prolonged period, however, and under my guidance, w shall have to find the means of extend ing it in other hands. This is something for consultation with your people as well as those of Ethyl Corporation and du Pont, and I shall bear this in mind in any planning in which 1 am involved. We have developed working relationship with other industrial organizations, in all of which your people have an important stake, at least with respect to the status of the lead industry, generally, here and abroad. It is much too promising an outlook> to be neglected, and what is required of the Kettering Laboratory, I am sure, is an active hand in further developments. Just how this is to be achieved is not evident at the moment. I have certain ideas which can, perhaps, be implemented, if the course and policies of the Laboratory, under new direction, will permit. We shall see, at this end, but the external relationships will be of great importance in the final outcome, and I commend those to your consideration as well as Ethyl and du Pont. Both K 00 rs . >*'1 . $ All' ` N13242.02 Mr. Fowler Page 3 ideas and financial support will, of course be involved. In this connection, 1 a planning to join Jack Bloomfield in Santiago, Chile, in September, for two months or more (perhaps) as a consultant In setting up a facility for research and training in the University of Santiago. There may be some other things 1 can do, there, that may have some relationship to this general problem. I shall return to Cincinnati, probably early in November, and either then or during my stay there (Mrs. Kehoe will be with mo of course), she and 1 will expect to find now head quarters on the West Coast or somewhere else that provides a satisfactory climate for her (warmth and "clear" air). Juat what can be worked out to fit these specifications is not apparent at the raotnent, largely because I shall not abandon my professional responsibilities to my associates in Cincinnati and my industrial supporters, elsewhere, so long as they are responsibilities, even if this requires some commuting. I am sure that you have a fairly clear concept of my professional commitment to this idea, and I shall do what circumstances permit me to do, by way of keeping the relationship of the Laboratory with .industry in an intact and productive state. la view of my official termination as the Director of the Kettering Laboratory, you may wish to advis me what to do prior to July 1st to iasura, so far as possible, the continuation of the formal relationships of the Laboratory to your International Research Organisation, it would bo a convenience to me to know whether, when and where I shall met with your group, as I did last year and the year before.

As instance of our con firmation we are enclosing our check for 97,500 as full and complete payment for your 1965 efforts. Thank you very much for your cooperation in this matter and please accept our thanks for your valued efforts. Since the first publication of the abstracts will be made in April, following the compilation of the first quarter 1965, we have a little time to consider the exact words to be placed on the binder cover and your suggestions for the wording of the Introduction. I will await your advice as to the introductory paragraph. Very truly yours. DGF:md Enc. Check No. 31242 Don G. Fowler 00k Ahead with Lead 0012733 N13242.03 December 14, 1964 Mr. Don G. Fowler Lead Industries Association, 292 Madison Avenue New York, New York 10017 Inc. Dear Mr. Fcwler: By this letter, I wish not only to give my formal approval to the proposal formalized in your letter of December first, concerning the publication of the abstracts of the Kettering Laboratory pertaining to lead, but also to express to you my gratification at the efforts of the Lead Industries Association to make these more widely available. It has been a source of dissatisfaction to me that we could not afford to do this our selves, and I welcome the opportunity thus afforded. The sum of 7500 which you have agreed to contribute is very satisfactory. While the yearly costs of the entire program will amount to somewhat more, this contribution will make it possible to do the work to the best of our ability. Sincerely, RAK:jb Robert A.
