Page -6- 57. Is it not a fact that in all probability a dosage takon daily of 6 micrograms would contain nora than could possibly have been absorbed by the oporators who practiced the habit of pointing brushes with their lips? 58. Is it not a fact that Now and Non Official Remedies did not specify any naximum dosage or any dosage which might prove injurious? 59, Is it not a fact that from New and Non Official Rezedies one would have been justifi ed in prescribing the use of radium chloride by mouth over prolonged perioda of time - any from 6 months to a year, the dosage varying anywhere from 2 to 6 micrograns per day? 60. Is it not a fact that probably such anounts have bean administored, and that as far as you know no deleterious effects, either current or latent were recomized? 61. Is it not a fact that the dangers of large quantities of radium have been récognized aince its early use? 62. In this connection may I ask if you are familiar with the use of radium in the deep ray therany? 63, Are you familiar with the precautions necessary and recommended in the handling of radium for this purpose? 64. Such precautions have been reconmended by the British X-roy and Radium Protection Comittee, Bureau of Standards Dept. of Commerce X-ray and Radium Protection, Mottram, Deajardines, and others. 65, Aro you familier with any or all of the offects large amounte of radium and radio- active preparations have produced, some of which may have been deleterious, described by Camoron; Carmen; de Cournelles; Qudzent & Halberstaedter Jaulin: Larkins: Lasarus Barlow; Lasarus; Loeb: Roitter Russ; Chambers is Scott; Weil; Tiel a Lacassagne. 66. Do the recommendations of the British X-ray and Redium Protection Comm. etc., or the men who have described the biological effects of large amounts of radium in any way apply to the internal use of radium in doses usually administered? 67. Is not the administration of radium internally, either intravenously, intramuscular- ly, etc., or per os, entiroly separate and apart froa the use of large amounts of radium in doep ray work, where the effects are due primarily to the beta and gamme radiation?
