Saint Louis 66, Missouri March 13, 1962 Aroclor 4465 ro File I was called by a Dr. Marcus Key, U. S. Public Health Service, Division of Occupational Health, 1014 Broadway, Cincinnati 2, Ohio. He stated that he was in St. Louis to Investigate a chloracne epidemic at the International Bent Olass Company, 1829 North 19th Street. These people had 12 out of their 15 employes develop a moderate chloracne during the past few months. This chloracne was not too bad, being mostly around the forehead and the ocular area. These people put a paint on a slltc screen with a squeegee. The screen is then heated in an oven which exhausts into the room. The paint contains the squeegee oil and Is obtained from the Drakenfeli Paint Company in New York City. This has some Aroclor 4465 in it and this presumably caused the chloracne. I am to send Dr. Key (cc to Jerry Molos) Information on Aroclor 4465. Obviously, then, we may have bo warn users similar to Drakenfeld about the hazards. REKiPH R. Emmet Kelly, M.D. MONS 096706
