State Board of Health, the Food and Drug Administration warned that some Mexican pottery or earthenware imported into the U. S. and used for food purposes, could result in severe illness through lead poisoning. "Although lead poisoning is a disease not reported to the N. C. State Board of Health," Dr. Koomen explained, "our close working relationship with Chemistry Division of the N. C. Department of Agriculture -under whose jurisdiction in vestigation of such matters' is carried out - will, I am sure, reveal shortly if the product is being sold in North Carolina." , FDS's investigation of Mexican pottery came in the wake of reports of lead poisoning of a family in the Western U- S. through the continued use of Mexican pottery.

If, however, there is a suspicion of its Mexican origin, consumers having such pottery or earthenware are urged to discontinue its use with foods immediately. "Lead," Dr.; Koomen pointed out, "is a cumulative poison. It is essential, therefore, that its intake ' by humans by kept to a minimum." ' Pottery that shows a rough or dull glaze rather than a glossy one gives the most lead when mildly acid solutions are placed on it. . Although the FDA action is not an embargo in imports of Mexican pottery, the warning at present applies only to pottery of Mexican origin. MEN AND BOYS' SF0HT SHIRTS LONG SLEEVE REG.
