However, this noise is amplified con- siderably and this en~ ables the instrument to count each fibre as it passes through. If it is a long fibre, the noise will last a relatively long time. If it is a thick one the indicating more pull is required on the part of the pump to suck it through the hole. Dr. Bragg says he thinks the system will work but some refine- ments are required. At the moment, he feels the instrument is not sensitive enough to pick up the shorter, softer sounds that would be made by very short, thin fibres. Also, he wants all extraneous noise eliminated so the instrument will count fibres only. Dr. Bragg was re- cently named a techni- cal advisor to the On- tario government's Royal Commission on Matters of Health and Safety Arising from the Use of Asbestos, usual- ly called the Commitr sion on Asbestos. Among the commis- sion's duties are to assess the cost of re- stricting the use of as- "Although asbestos has been replaced by glass fibres and vermi- culite for such uses as insulating steel beams in buildings. it can't be replaced in all its uses," Dr. Bragg says.
