.. ,a October 9, 1924. Dr. Royal Meeker, Department of labor and Industry, Harrisburg, Pa. Dear Dr. Meeker: Your questionnaire Strikes roe as all right except that I hope you are not going to permit people to install elaborate looker rooms, wash rooms, restaurants, eto., in order to prevent the mouth Ingestion of lead, and then allow men to be exposed to fumes so that inhalation, which is the really dangerous method of getting lead into the body, can occur freely. Is it possible, in the limits of your questionnaire to introduce an inquiry as to whether the lead compounds to which the employees are exposed are of such nature as to permit inhalation? This is the point of greatest / importance and greatest danger. A Very sincerely yours. Cecil K. Drinker, M.D. iMMU mo iq im ommm_ 3*i? . mwrmjQ7 .a b '} YSsAMiKl /
