Abstract
The purpose of this communication is to serve as a warning to the now numerous people seeking to prevent partial deafness in ears subjected to loud noise. If the results in the figures herewith can be extended to the case of permanent threshold shifts, they may indicate that work periods should be set not only to allow the ear to recover to normal by audiometric test, but to provide in addition a time interval sufficient for the effects of latent damage to be dissipated.
