We have measured the cross sections for charge pickup ({Delta}{ital Z}=+1) reactions of {sup 139}La nuclei at three energies in the interval 390--560 MeV/nucleon in a stack of VG-13 glass detectors ({l angle}{ital A}{r angle}=26). Our results support evidence by Binnes {ital et} {ital al}. that the cross sections for charge pickup by heavy nuclei increase as the energy decreases below {similar to}600 MeV/nucleon.
