.
He is the Bill Smith of the past and present.
But what happens to the Bill Smith of the future, the man who is going to work on atomic projects, who is going to be exposed to radio- active materials?
No squashed thumbs for him, but here in America they calculate that a man who retires after working. for 25 years in an atom fac- tory will, under present safety conditions, LOSE five years of his life.
A year's work in a factory -five days a week, eight hours a day--will shorten a man's life by abotit 78 days.

United States by various scientific organisations..
