THE JEFFERSON MEDICAL COLLEGE OF PHILADELPHIA 1025 WALNUT STREET / u,-,` 7) DEPARTMENT OF PREVENTIVE MEDICINE DIVISION OF in d u s t r ia l me d ic in e k3,January 1953 Dr. E. A. Kehoe University of Cincinnati College of Medicine Cincinnati 19, Ohio Dear Doctor Kehoe: I apologize for the delay in sending you the manuscript on the Versenate treatment of children with lead poisoning. I had to exert great pressure on the young men to 'write their manuscript. I wonder whether investigators oay sufficient attention to the use of good oxidation pro cedures in the analysis for lead. I am adding the story of an interesting case of an adult who was treated with Versenate. You may be es pecially interested in looking at the chart on page six. Vie think that the drug should be given intermittently, and I will report to you as soon as I have enough material to show advan tages or disadvantages. One of my co-workers, Dr. krearic hieaers, has made an interesting study comparing the effects of BaL and of EDTa which he will present at the next Federation meeting. With best regards, I am Very sincerely yours, H. Brieger, M. D. Professor of Industrial Medicine and Director of the Division 0008637
