jJan. 2, 1962 Director lead Control Center Health Dept. Kettering Lab. DhiM^s^'ty' of Cincinatti CinGinatti, Ohio ' i ' ' Mrs. L.D Pox 2036 Stanton Rd East Point, Ga. ' ' ' Dear Sir: . In a recent publication of Today's Health magazine I read an article on Lead Poisoning, the dangers involved and your effort to educate the public in this matter. I recently discovered my child, age 2, playing with the enclosed dimestore item-----a "jumping bean", one of several beans, whose movement is apparently caused by the lead 3? or magnetized?metal pellet inside. These pellets fall out easily, and since they are manufactured for children as toys, I would assume a great many of them are eonsumed by children. I do not know if these pellets are lead or not or if they are dangerous to children, but I felt I should bring it to your attention just in case they are a hazard. I would appreciate a response from you if at all possible since several children in the neighborhood have been playing with them. ., Thank you very much. Mrs. L.D. /Pox HE 0015667
