Previous 'fifth-force' experiments searched for differential acceleration of test bodies placed near terrestrial sources. Because these sources have N about equal to Z, the results had little sensitivity to forces coupled to B-2L = N-Z. A search for such forces was made by placing a 1-ton Pb source close to a Be/Al torsion balance. Null results rule out (at 2 sigma) the possibility that all previous composition-dependence results could be due to a force coupling predominantly to B-2L with a range lambda less than 1000 m. Also set are improved constraints on new interactions with lambda = 0.3-10 m.
