Whatever you specify in homogeneous lead-lined or lead-covered equipment . .

It is my understanding that most of these quick drying paints are quite low in lead, and that in some instances they have no lead at all.

Tetra-ethyl lead poisohing from Ethyl Gasoline has not to our knowledge yet occurred.

It may be pointed out that soluble lead as shown in these analyses does not necessarily mean alkyl-lead compounds as there are a number of lead salts of organic acids soluble in oil* Our laboratory reports no information on the use of leaded gasoline in engines located in mines Of course, many stationary engines are run on leaded gasoline in laboratories and there is certainly no reason to expect any trouble from this source provided the exhaust gases are properly piped ge/lrj Enc K* 0015425

The question of organic compounds of lead being present in the finished product seems secondary to the fact that tetraethyl lead itself is used in the process and what we wanted to particularly point out was the possibility of lead poisoning to the operators at the Dye Works who manu facture the above fungicides.

In our opinion, these white lead or lead-sine paints when properly made and ap*> plied are more durable than the ready-mixed llthopone paints.

If lead poisoning manifests itself other ways, I want to know that, too.

Mon of the ste-n Included in the survey gave any evidence of illness referable to the absorption of lead, whether of complaints, physical sign !

His results on gasoline lead poisoning he says indicate that motor gasol- ine is alright due to its low lead content, but aviation is slightly harmful to the:average Chilian.
