Parathion, a nerve gas
aped by the Germans before the
Second World War but never
used, may be responsible for the
partial paralysis a Toronto ,school
principal and his wife have suf-
fered during the last month, '
J. Ross., Lawrence, 54, a public
school principal and his wife, 49,
suffered severe nausea and par-
alysis, in their hands and feet
after inhaling a duster-type in-
secticide that, was demiMetrated
to them indoors a month ago.
They have been in hospital since,
Mrs.` Lawrence is the trainee

ship, '
Lest Use of FingeSs.
The teacher has recqvered par-
tial use of his hands but his wife
is unable to control her finget
muscles.
A University of Toronto chem-
istry professor, who- said some
home insecticides are commercial
adaptions of the German nerve
gas, added that , it has caused
several poisoning cases during
the last few months.
When an • insecticide compound-
ed bf parathion is sprayed in a
room a phosphorous residue re-
mains afters the spray's moisture
has disappeared, he said.
.Scientists ; are doing research
work to determine rhe cause of
Mr, and Mrs. Lawrence's infec-
tion, but Mr. Lawrence is con-
vinced that the poisoning was
caused when he and his wife
breathed a cloud of insecticide in
a .closed roam, when a suburban
florist demonstrated the inset-
icicle. He was ehoppitg: for a spray
for use Sra his garden.
The incident-- occurred about
the middle of June, Mr. and Mrs.
Laysrence• were ill at ,their home
for a time, before heing hospital-
ized.
Mr. Lawrence's• condition has
improved more rapidly than that
of his wife, who Still is :not able
to feed herself, and can barely
move her hands. •
"The doctors think that .as we
adjust to the' poisoning and our
bodies start to fight back, . we
will continue to improve," Mr.
Lawrence said. '••
