In studying the figures presented, we separated the girls into groupd according to the time that they had been working with luminous material. One has every right to expect that if the luminous paint were a hazard that those girls working the longest would give some indication of that fact, Or at least a certain percentage of the number examined would. Our analysis is as follows: I/ Blood Counts 4 2 years up 2 to 4 years I to 2ytears Leas than a year I2 girls 24 girls I5 girls 7 girls Red 4.86 4.86 4.99 4.96 4.83 White 8350 8260 9050 9530 Neutrophiles 64.5 64.4 65.I 64.9 Lymphocytes 25.7 24.8 25.1 25.7 The average count for the girls working less than one year ean be discarded because of the small number and because several of those who worked but two or three months showed a high whit count.
