The warning came from the State Division of Industrial Safety Department of Industrial Relations. Thomas N. Saunders, chief of the safety division, stated that the label instructs users of the toy to clean it with carbon tet. “Carbon tet is one of the most harmful of the common solvents and causes many deaths and injuries in industry,” said Saunders. “We discourage the use of carbon tet as a cleaning agent in places of employment where its use is permitted only under very stringent conditions.” The eastern manufacturer of “Silly.
