231 WEST WISCONSIN AVENUE MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN ,March 9 -1939 Mr. Robert A. Mehce University of Min.cif.nati Cincinnatis Ohio hear Dr. Kehoe: .Me have a lead' case pending or. March 22, 1939 before our Industrial Commission and mi-~h+. find it necessary to call you in for expert testimony. According to my best information it is a case of simple -malignant hypertension in a young man mlth. an insignificant exposure to lead fumes. His prognosis is, of course, serious and it has been assumed by hi attorneys that his physical condition is due to his possible lead absorption. Unfortunately the quantitative urine lead examination has been done by an individual mho is convinced that .03 mg. per liter of urine is the uoper limit of normal ' lead absorption. This same individual has informed- me that so-called normal limits of .03 are much too high' because* he believes that anything as hi^h as .05 is distinctly abnormal. Heedless to say this so-called -scientist is not an K.D. I am rendering if you.rill be able to come to this State on March 22 to spend the day, and also "'hat your approximate charge Tould. be . . If you are available and the charge is -'ithir. the range of the company covering the case, I mill be glad to send you further details for the time of hearing. Hoping, that re rill have the opportunity to discuss, this and other cases further, I am ELB-: K Sincerely yours, /-/3 ^ Elston L. Belknao, H. D.
