Will you please hold those until I arrive on July 9. I have an appointment to visit Dr. AndrdUrs of the Southern Monterey County Medical .'.p on July 9. As you knovf, we will be processing asbestos in the nev; plant and expect will not be an excessive exposure to the dust. Nevertheless, in interviewing prospective employees it would seem advisable not to hire men for work in the plant who have had a history of hard rock mining. Such workers'have been exposed to silica dust in such vrork. Will discuss this further when I see you. Warm personal regards. Sincerely Thomas W.

I understand there has been some discussion relative to the measurement of blood cholinesterase in men exposed to certain of the insecticide formulations in your area. I am enclosing a copy of "Measurement of Blood Cholinesterase" which is a reprint from ARCHIVES OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH April I9S3 Vol. 6, pp. 537-5o3. I trust you will find this useful.
