Abstract
Asbestos-like fibers in industrial waste first entered the water supply of Duluth in 1955. In the next 14 years, no carcinogenic effect was apparent in the patterns of cancer mortality among persons of all ages, nor among children. The period of observation is short relative to the latent period for occupationally induced carcinogenesis from asbestos. (JAMA228:1019-1020, 1974)Keywords
