The only ingredients within under the kitchen sink reach were containers of drain cleaner, ammonia, bleach, fabric softener, flixir wax, car polish and cleaner, and spray starch. THEY MADE the pie, ate the pie, and vomited the pie. They also went to the hospital. "Fortunately, the children recovered," said Richard Winsor, Child Safety Consultant for the National Safety Council. Others have not lieen so fortunate.

In homes where children are in the crawling climbing or toddling stages, products such as cleansers, detergents, wax and bleach should lie stored on high shelves rather than in those under the sink, Mrs. Hull said. Or they might tie stashed in a locked trunk in the laundry room or back porch. Bottles of aspirin, diet pills and other medicines don't belong in Mamas purse where tots like to rummage, or on the breakfast table or night stand. Even an unlocked medicine cabinet is far from ideal for youngsters who use the bathroom sink as a jungle gym. "The top shelf of the linen closet is a safer substitute, especially if a sliding bolt is installed at the top of the door," suggested the safety council spokesman. Another hint for the housewife: Don't grupe in the dark for juniors cough medicine; labels are meant to be read. TI1E INCIDENT mentioned here may involve the largest num- ler of products ever noted in single ingestions," Winsor said. But, that's not the important point, he was quick to add. "The significant factors are that 1) the household products, as in millions of American homes, were easily accessible to children and, 2) children will eat anything, poisonous or not." A spokesman for the Central Poison Control Center in Chicago, who answers dozens of phone calls each week on poison cases, seemed to agree with Winsor on basic causes of accidental childhood poisonings. He told the National Safety Council: By far, the greatest number of calls I get involve baby aspirin and bleach. Aspirin is a product found in almost every home in the nation; people simply forget its a potential poison and leave it right under children's noses.
