The rmh of ikli teamwork U demonstrated
by the rodvetkm of the rate of disabling lend
intoxication from 20% In 1929 to t% or S%
vitkla the krtt tit yean, and by the fact that
thereafter disabling tend intoxication or trtM
tend poisoning ha* averaged only one every other
year, and none at ait the last two yean. All of
thane c a m* were of the simple lend colic type
and were never complicated with lead palsy or
encephalopathy. (Figure 1)
The year 1929 was known to soms of you si
the greet financial crash. That was the year
lost Ufoce I came to the company when there
was the greatest incidence of disabling trad in*
toxic si ton. Then It tapered off fairly rapidly
when we sorted out our most heavily exposed
workers and had a very cooperative engineering
group working to reduce the lead exposure. There
was a tuny perhd, from 1934 to 1940, when we
had only one case of lead Intoxication.
Again la 1944, there was a peak of live case#.
This w as the time when automobile produc tion the country over was at its peak, and we Vrfi working In many ln**srv<ce 10 hours a day. six days a week. all contributing to increased tend exposure and absorption.

For the last 22 years, the Medical Department has always been able to am management and the torn themaeires of heavy lead absorption, so that the torn could bo ftwrtfd pending a miiKtkm of lewd exptwure. In the eight year* from 1934 to 1944, and the fire years from 1M4 to 194A, there were no eases at aB.
