N2  - To the Editor:— 
    Recently there has come to my attention the following statement, which appeared on page 15 in a small book entitled "The Anemias," published by Eli Lilly Company in 1938: " 'Reticulogen' contains 20 units of anti-pernicious anemia principle per cc."I have also recently seen such a statement in the literature contained in a package of Reticulogen. I know of several instances of such a statement being made to physicians by men representing Eli Lilly Company. In at least one of these instances the physician was led to believe that this represents U. S. P. units.I have seen no reference to Reticulogen in publications of the potency of anti-pernicious anemia substances made by the U. S. P. Anti-Anemia Advisory Board. There has been a statement made by this subcommittee that no parenteral liver substance would be given a rating of more than 15 units per cubic centimeter
