Pauling Claims Strontium-90 limit Too Hiuh NEW YORK (UPI)-Dr. Linus Pauling, Nobel prize winning chemist, said today that amounts of strontium-90 now judged permissible could cause every thousandth child in an entire generation to die of leukemia. Pauling protested the recent raising of the permissible limit by the National Committee on Radiation Protection and measurements in a letter to the New York Tiroes published today. The scientist, head of the chemistry division of the California Institute of Technology, has long been an outspoken opponent of continued nuclear testing which raises the worlds level of radioactive fallout. The only safe amount of stron-tum-90 in the bone of our chil-' dren is zero." Tauling wrote.

He noted that the element is deposited rapidly, with calcium, in the bones of growing children. I shall assume that by the age of 7 the children have received the maximum permissible amount 0 2 mierocurie, he wrote. For the remainder of their lives, about 63 years, their bone marrow would be irndiated by it at the rate of 0 5 roentgen a year. Prof. B.

Lewis of the Ca'i-fornia Institute of Technology estimated from the k.eiJence of leukemia in Hiroshima nid Nagasaki survivors that -ne-marrow irradiation by one roentgen increases the incidence of leukemia by one per million during each succeeding year. There is much evidence that this rate holds lor even, small amounts of radiation. A simple calculation on the basis of the above figures show; that the predicted chance of death by leukemia caused by strontium-90 for a person who receives the newly recommended maximum permissible amount early in hie is one per thousand.
