A version of this article was presented at the National Conference on Lead Poisoning, sponsored by the National League of Cities, Washington, D.C., June 29, 1972. Preventable tragedies are always useless. When they recur, the English language is not rich enough to convey their connota tion of abysmal nothingness. This is the case with lead poisoning in children. Social factors, especially poverty and its attendant poor housing, are associated with lead poisoning.1 These same conditions ensure that the disease will persist. Lin-Fu writes:
