LEAD INDUSTRIES ASSOCIATION O CAST 4S*B STMCCT NCW YORK IT. N. V. December l8, 1959 SPBJECT; IZAD X-RAI SEELM So Member* of the Lead Industrie* Association: We believe that you vlll be interested In the attached copy of an article vhlch appeared In the HEW TCFK TIMES on Friday. December 11. In this connection ve yould like to point cut that ve are cooperating vlth the lev Toxic City De partment of Bealth and Professor Hanson Blatz. its consultant on radiation, by having built for them a demonstration panel to be used by the Department In Impressing doctors and dentists vlth the need for lead X-ray shielding. Shis panel vlll be of ordinary vallboard, half of vhlch vlll be covered vlth sheet lead. It vlll be on wheels so that It can be moved back and forth between a radiation source and a counter to demonstrate lead's ability to stop the rays. When the Bev Xork campaign fry better shielding has been la progress long enough to evaluate Its results, *c hope that ve may Interest other cities In csupalgnlng similarly for better protection. We believe thst such efforts should stimulate the market for sheet lead and other lead products. \ Att.
