INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE FOUNDATION 1967 Annual Report INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE FOUNDATION OF AMERICA (412) 621-1100 ST&auiSHCO 1BSB INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE FOUNDATION OF AMERICA, INC. 4400 FIFTH AVENUE Pittsburgh, pfc. 15213 TO THE MEMBERSHIP OF IHF: Almost every paper at the 32nd Annual Meeting of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation, October 10-11, 1967, related in some manner to the importance of our efforts to further progress in health conservation management. Industry's role in furthering progress in environmental and occupational health programs through IHF has been important in the past but will be vital to future progress, which will depend increasingly upon enlightened management of our nation's re sources. Thus, IHF's efforts merit genuine support of all those interested in health conservation, whether in industry, government, labor or academic institutions. The Foundation's Board of Trustees enthusiastically support the pro grams which the Managing Director, Dr. Robert T. P. deTreville, and his staff and advisors are developing. A review of these programs is given in the 1967 Annual Report in an effort to keep the Membership informed and to interest pro spective members in the work of the Foundation. We welcome your comments and would be pleased to supply additional information upon request. EKD:sjc E. K.

A panel of expert advisors who have agreed to assist in specific areas of IHF research is also shown. The Foun dation's programs and plans have also been outlined in numerous meetings and publications since 1963 which are described in the 1967 Publications List. There can be no doubt that the Foundation's staff and its membership are working effectively together in an ever increasing number of areas of importance to health conservation which can be best undertaken by IHF as industry's non profit research association. Short and long-term investigative programs being conducted in the Foundation's Research Laboratory and in. the field also promise to benefit industry's workforce, and ultimately the public at large. These will be described later in this Annual Report on page 4. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees October 9, 1967, steps were taken to help further development of a*pulmonary research center in the University of Pittsburgh with IHF's experimental pulmonary pathology laboratory serving as a nucleus around which to build such a capability. Satisfactory arrangements were made in this regard, effective January 1, 1968, for the establishment of the Indus trial Hygiene Research Unit (formerly called IHF Research Laboratory) within the University of Pittsburgh, Graduate School of Public Health, Department of Occupa tional Health. Activities of IHF technical committees were summarized in the reports of their'chairmen at the Annual Membership Meeting, which are included in the Minutes on page 18. .' Environmental and occupational health studies performed in the field for several member companies during the year ranged from interpretation of blood and urine tests for possible lead exposure to comprehensive industrial hygiene engineering surveys of specific plant operations.

Steps towards initiation of an epidemiological study of employees in one plant of a member company exposed to dusts were taken in the last half of 1967. Data extracted from this statistical research should be useful to the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists' Threshold Limits Committee, as part of the Foundation's central data repository project. IHF's mental health project (Employee Mental Health and Industrial Nursing Practices) under subcontract to the American Institutes for Research (AIR) made signficant progress during this second year of the five-year National In stitute of Mental Health training grant awarded to the Foundation in July 1966. Mr. Harris H. ShetteL Director of AIR's Instructional Development Program, who is directing IHF's project, reported at the Foundation's 32nd Annual Meeting on the success of securing professional staff: Cnid Goldberg, R. N., a psychiatric nurse, and Iva Pleasants, R. N. , an industrial nurse, plus additional research assistants. Their first major task was to find out what nurses are doing at pre sent in the area of employee mental health, the support which could be expected from their immediate environment (especially from medical personnel), how they would react to the notion of taking on increased responsibility in this area, and what kind of course content would be most useful to them. To secure this infor mation, a case study record form and a comprehensive questionnaire were devel oped and distributed to nurses in several IHF member companies. The analysis . of the data will lead to the initial determination of the role of the industrial nurse with regard to employee mental health and also determine course content for future programmed instruction in this area. (Mr. Shettel's paper, "Mental Health and the Industrial Nurse, " will be published in the 32nd Annual Meeting Trans actions, available April 1968.} The Industrial Hygiene Digest, now in its 32nd year, continues to he the principal publication of IHF. Dr. John Metschl, Editor, excerpts articles from a wide range of literature on environmental and occupational health for the monthly issues. This medium has produced a file of over 30, 000 abstracts providing a ready source of information on inplant dust, air pollution, noise, heat, solvents, dermatitis, toxicity of materials, ionizing radiation and up-to-date information on new products and procedures. Plans are underway to augment this facility and expand this information service to our members. From all of the above it can readily he seen that IHF is setting out to perform its mission in a manner consistent with present and expected needs of an increasingly technological society. It is contributing in a unique way to human progress by introducing scientific concepts of management, based on genuine needs and factual data. IHF's membership deserves great credit for encouraging our efforts, and we hope we can count on a greatly expanded expression of interest and support on a broader base in industry as our programs mature. 3 RESEARCH LABORATORY .. ' Paul Gross* M. D. ' Director of Research Laboratory The Industrial Hygiene Foundation's current experimental research pro grams are described in the following report of progress. Emphysema Study. A study, begun two years ago and based on prelimi nary research sponsored by the American Iron and Steel Institute, is concerned with the pulmonary effects of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide adsorbed on activated carbon and inhaled by small laboratory animals. Other series of these small animals, consisting of guinea pigs, rats and hamsters with one half of these with normal lungs and the other half with emphysematous lungs, inhaled high concentrations of industrial dusts. The evaluation of the pulmonary changes pro duced is in progress. . The paucity or absence of dust in regions of emphysema was perhaps the most outstanding finding in this study and was caused by accelerated clear ance of dust in regions of emphysema. There are two apparent reasons for the improved clearance: (1) in the absence of alveolar septa, dust cannot be seques- trated, and (2) the removal of evaginating alveoli by emphysema removes obstacles in, and shortens the pathway of, the proximally moving dust. The impression was gained from a study of the sections that the lungs of . papain-treated animals contained less dust than their corresponding non-papaintreated controls. Whether or not this is fact must await gravimetric determinations of the dust in the lungs. An extension of this study is contemplated for the immed iate future.

' Asbestos Bioeffects. An in vestigation has recently been conclude; dealing with long-term effects on the lungs of animals inhaling chrysotiie asbestos dust. Of the three species of animals employed, guinea pigs, har sters and rats, only the latter develop lung cancer. An overall prevalence o 30% of malignant lung tumors has bee noted. Of some interest was the find: that animals in which lung clearance ' been impaired had double the lung cai cer rate (48%) of animals without thii impairment (24%). (Sponsor: U. S. Public Health Service. ) Fibrous Dust Study. A continuation of the four-phase investigation dealing with the pulmonary effects of fibrous dusts has resulted in the com pletion of two manuscripts: " 'Asbestos' Bodies: Their Nonspecificity" by Gross, P. , Cralley, L. J. and deTreville. R. T. P.--to be published in the Journal of the American Medical Association and "Pulmonary Ferruginous Bodies: 1. Their Development in Response to Filamentous Dusts, 2. A Method of Isolating and Concentrating Them. " by Gross, P., deTreville, R. T. P.. Cralley, L. J. and Davis, J, M. G. --to be published in the AMA Archives of Pathology. Both are concerned with Phase 1, the development of ferruginous bodies. , These structures have been demonstrated to be nonspecific forma tions that result as a response to the presence of filamentous, insoluble dust particles in the air spaces of the lung. Additional work on Phase II, dealing with the nature of the carcinogenic component of chrysotile, has involved the use of synthetic chrysotile produced not only by Dr. William T. Granquist, Senior Fellow of Mellon Institute, but also by the Johns-Manville Research and Engineering Center (Dr. F. L. Pundesack. Mariy series of animals have been injected intratracheally and intrapleurally with synthetic chrysotile to which one or the other of the following metals had been adsorbed; nickel, chromium, manganese, and cobalt. These animals will be studied for the long-term pathologic' effects of the injected materials upon the lungs and pleural membranes, particularly the development of tumors. A comparative study. Phase III, of the pathogenic components of the three main types of asbestos dust (chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite) has been initiated. This investigation involves an attempt to divorce associated trace metals and possible hydrocarbons from each of the three types of asbestos and to study the long-term effects of such treated asbestos dusts. Phase IV of this investigation has been concerned with electron micro scopic studies of ferruginous bodies from human lungs as well as from the lungs of hamsters. This work (in cooperation with Dr. Robert V. Rice, Senior Fellow, Mr. Martin N. Haller, Fellow, and Miss Alida C. Swanson, Assistant in Bio Chemistry, all of Mellon Institute, ahd'Dr. John M. G. Bavi-s of-Cambridge, United Kingdom) is being accomplished by Drs. Robert T. P. deTreville, IHF Managing Director, and H, Michael Utidjian, IHF Fellow in Occupational Medi cine. The ultimate aim of this study is to identify the central fiber of the fer ruginous bodies that have been found in nearly all (97%) of lungs of 100 unselected hospital autopsies in Pittsburgh, examined by a technique developed in the Foun dation's Laboratory, and refined by Dr. Utidjian. Utilizing electron diffraction and electron-probe analysis (in cooperation with Dr. Lawrence F. Vassamillet, Senior Fellow of Mellon Institute) ferruginous bodies isolated and concentrated by a newly devised method will be studied by Mr. Haller in order to identify the central core. ^ (Sponsors: National Institutes of Health, U.

' ' \ ", *. jr ' V r i i ! Lung Clearance Study. Nearing completion is a study of the clearance mechanism of the lung. This study is based upon the enumeration of scavenger cells that respond to the inhalation or the intratracheal injection of a number of different dusts. The enumeration of cells is performed on saline washings in jected and removed from the tracheo-bronchial tree at different time periods after tbe imposition of the dust burden on the lungs. - (Sponsor: U. S. Public Health Service.) Mechanism of Action of Silica. A study (in collaboration with Dr. Heinrich Brieger, Professor Emeritus, Jefferson Medical College) dealing with the theory of silicosis has been completed and has recently been published: "On the Theory of Silicosis 111. Stishovite" by Brieger, H. and Gross, P., Archives of Environ mental Health 15:751-757, December 1967. It is the fourth and final paper. Spe cifically, these paper8 have dealt with the comparative pathogenicity of the different crystalline forms of silica. This study indicates that a crystalline form of Si02, Stishovite, is biologically inert and that this biologic inertness is related to an atomic arrangement in octahedrons whereas the atoms in the biologically active forms of crystalline silica are arranged in tetrahedrons. Experimental Oncology. Data are being collected and evaluated from rats and hamsters, the lungs of which had been exposed to x-rays. The purpose of this study is to determine if such x-ray exposure may be useful in the development of an experimental model for determining tbe potential of suspected materials to pro- duce lung cancer. # (Sponsor: U. S. Public Health Service. ) Aluminum Dust Study. An investigation has been initiated to determine the relative pathogenicity of United States produced metallic aluminum powder compared to that of the British "PyroM-type of aluminum powder. The latter is reported.to have produced fibrosis of the lung in animals and to have caused severe pulmonary-fibrosis in workers engaged in production of the powder and exposed to high levels of the dust over long periods of time. This experience is in apparent contrast to that in the United States and it is hoped that laboratory experiments, supplemented by clinical and epidemiological studies of United States workers will help identify the cause of the hazard and allow its elimination.

Fibrous Glass Study. Independent of the four-phased Fibrous Dust Studies an investigation is underway to determine the long-term pulmonary effects when filamentous glass dusts, coated as well as uncoated, are inhaled* Three species of animals (guinea pigs, rats and hamsters) are being exposed to high concentra tions of these dusts in inhalation chambers. Another part of this study is in pro gress to determine whether or not filamentous glass dust will deleteriously affec a pre-existing emphysema and whether or not the deposition of this dust in the lu will predispose to papain-induced emphysema. .

Range-finding toxicity studies on compounds used in industry are conducted in the Foundation's laboratory, upon request, under Dr. Gross with the assistance of Marianne Kaschak, Research Associate. Chemical-Toxicological Series Bulletin No. 6, "Range-Finding Toxicity Data for 43 Compounds," was published in 1967 describing the results in tabular form of these compounds tested over a number of years for several member companies. ; Full-time laboratory staff assisting Dr. Gross in the above studies are: Mary Ann Babyak, Margaret H. Cooper, Guy . Dent, Marianne Kaschak, Dawn McGuire, Leon Miller, Ethel B. Tolker and Dr. H. Michael D. Utidjian.

Mr. E. K. Davison, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, presided. Dr. H. H. Schrenk, who had been previously appointed by the Chairman to examine the proxies, reported that there were 148 companies represented by proxies that were in proper form and fully executed. The member companies represented by proxy or in person constituted a quorum. A list of the member companies represented by proxies and a copy of the notice of the meeting and proxy sent to all members of the Corporation are on file in the Minute Book. A motion was made by Mr. Frederick H. Deeg and seconded by Dr. Joseph F. Treon to dispense' with the reading of the minutes of the October 18, 1966, meeting. The Chairman stated that the Minute Book was available and open at the meeting for inspection by members. The Chairman next gave a brief resume of the financial status of the Foundation, reporting that conditions are much improved and look even more promising for I968. Mr. Davison called upon Mr. L. Harold Larsen, who has been appointed Assistant Treasurer of the Foundation, to present the forecast. Mr. Larsen's report is on file in the Minute Book. Mt. Davison -asked Dr. Robert T. P. deTreville to give the Managing Director's report. . Report of the Managing Director Under the title, "Foundation Facts, " progress in every major area of Industrial Hygiene Foundation activity since my joining the Foundation's staff almost five years ago is reported. In reviewing presentations given at this Annual Meeting, attention is directed to the frequency with which speakers refer to Industrial Hygiene Foundation programs now under way or planned; The past I five years have been used in program planning, in a wide variety of areas of importance to the Foundation's members. By means of numerous meetings and publications, rapport and communications have been established with all those within and nut of the Foundation's membership, whose cooperation and support are needed. ' Administratively, the Foundation has weathered two storms, both of which, at times, threatened its existence: the fixst of these was financial -- i. e., the need to balance the budget by means of increased income from both dues and projects. The second, which was organizational, arose out of the announced plan of Mellon Institute to merge with the Carnegie Institute of Technology to form Carnegie-Mellon University. The chief threat involved continued availability of the Foundation's Laboratory facilities in the Old Mellon Building on the University of Pittsburgh campus. As a result of the outstanding efforts of Foundation Trustee, Dr. G. A. Webb, who is Associate Director of Mellon Institute, and our Chairman, Mr. E. K. Davison, plans have been made which insure continued availability of the Foundation's present Laboratory facilities until other appropriate space, acceptable to the Foundation's research staff, can be developed. This has been accomplished by means of an Agree ment between Industrial Hygiene Foundation and the University of Pittsburgh, under which the Foundation's Research Laboratory Staff becomes part of the University of Pittsburgh, Graduate School of Public Health, Department of Occupational Health. The Foundation's Board of Trustees approved the Agree ment at their meeting yesterday, and it becomes effective January 1, 1968. The Foundation's Headquarters, which will remain at Mellon Institute for the present, will administer contracts with Mellon Institute, University of Pittsburgh, Americas Institutes for Research, and other agencies actively assisting in carrying out Industrial Hygiene Foundation programs of research and education. It is possible that later on we will need to create a small Industrial Hygiene Foundation office elsewhere to remove activities which are purely "business" in nature, such as collection of dues, for example, from the Carnegie-Mellon University setting. While such a change may become advisable eventually, it is not necessary at this time, and we are attempting to explore every avenue of cooperative-endeavor I which may benefit Industrial Hygiene Foundation and Carnegie-Mellon University alike. 1 . . I should now like to look at least five years into the future with you. Having leaned heavily on the Mellon Institute as a "Rock of Gibraltar" for its initial 32 years of life. Industrial Hygiene Foundation needs, and is establishing, an independent identity. Its programs are already demonstrating need for addi tional and improved research facilities, such as will be required in a few years to house the Industrial Hygiene Research Unit in the University of Pittsburgh, Graduate School of Public Health, Department of Occupational Health. The budge . for 1968 does not include provision for such facilities but does allow for much needed minor improvements in the present Laboratory facilities. It also include sufficient funds from project research to allow Industrial Hygiene Foundation to add several senior level, full-time staff members, which will provide much needed depth of coverage in key areas. These individuals have been identified and steps are now under way to attract them. In the face of growing Industrial HygieneFoundation programs, in order to help insure project completion and to avoid undue dependence on individuals at or near retirement age, such ad ditions are considered minimal and are mandatory. Even with these and the evidence of a budget balanced well "in the black" for the second consecutive year and with every Evidence of rapidly growing pro ject support, we are faced with a potentially serious and harmful "credibility gap, " i. e., if Industrial Hygiene Foundation is_ industry's organization and if industry does consider its role of leadership in programs of Environmental and Occupational Health important, how can it allow the Foundation to depend so ' largely upon project support alone, with an annual "endowment" of less than $100, 000 per year? I have been asked this question by representatives of the U. S. Public Health Service, the U. S. Department of Labor, universities and private institutions, and, even more embarrassingly, the Foundation's staff asks itself the same question. I have given much thought to the need for an en dowment sufficient to allow the Foundation to continue its work for another 30+ years1 period but have had difficulty arriving at a defensible figure which would be considered adequate. For example, I took the $300 million a year figure, which the Frye Report stated industry is presently spending for its internal health programs, and came up with the estimate of $10 billion as a minimum which industry will have spent by the year 2000--with no way of knowing whether the expenditure was effective for the purpose intended. A 1% cost for research and management would amount to $100 million or $3+ million per year for 30 years. This would be a much larger sum than Industrial Hygiene Foundation's present endowment of less than $100, 000 per year, but in view of the magnitude of the nation's illness problem and of annual costs for group health insurance, sick absence and environmental health hazard control (which may well exceed 10% of a trillion dollar Gross National Product by 1975), the above suggested amount would not of itself be adequately convincing of industry's interest. For this reason, and in .view of the extensive demands on the time of the Foundation's staff and Board of the fund raising activities required to develop a broad sup port base, 1 have decided against recommending creation of such an endowment at this time. The possibility of using professional fund raising assistance was suggested but is considered to be unduly expensive and also perhaps inappropriate for Industrial Hygiene Foundation. Instead, the Foundation's Board plans to em bark on a program to increase annual income by broadening the base of the Foun dation's support in industry. There is no reason why the majority of companies in American Industry, who believe in the importance of the Foundation's mission, should not lend their support to that of the loyal few who are now providing leader- ship for industry in this area. Regardless of the amount of increased income which the membership drive produces, the doubling or tripling of the? Foundation's membership over a short period of time will graphically portray industry's genuine concern and effectively remove the one major barrier to Industrial Hygiene Foundation's progress which remains. 17 istts: I l ( 1 At its meeting immediately following this assembly, the newly elected Board of Trustees will elect officers. It plans an extensive reorganization in 1968 in support of the Foundation's continued growth. The Board will count on : the assistance of the membership in implementing its programs, and, as al ways, the Foundation's staff will continue to help in any way possible. * In conclusion, let me say how gratifying it has been, especially during the past year, to'see the genuine enthusiasm for Industrial Hygiene Foundation Programs and Plans spread from the faithful few to many individuals. There is every reason to believe such interest will grow even more rapidly in 1968, as our programs mature. The resulting improvement in Industrial Hygiene Foundation's image should reflect considerable credit not only on individuals concerned, but on industry, science, government, and on our system of free enterprise in general. The Chairman next called for reports of the standing committees. Committee Reports Chemical-Toxicological Dr. Joseph F. Treon, Chairman, reported that progress is being made in strengthening the Foundation's relations with the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) Threshold Limits Committee. In addition to the very successful 1967 Chemical-Toxicological Threshold Limit Values Workshop held in January, Dr. deTreville had also arranged an explor- ' atory meeting with several members of the Threshold Limits Committee and representatives of the IHF membership on two threshold limit values of concern to companies within the Foundation's membership who manufacture explosives. The satisfactory outcome of these meetings demonstrates an important IHF role as a site of objective scientific review of existing-or proposed standards. (In this regard. Dr. James H. Sterner, Moderator of this Annual Meeting's Man agement Conference, pointed to the success of the National Council on Radia tion Protection as indicative of what is becoming an increasingly important national need in support of the nation's use of chemicals. The Linton Report calls for licensing of chemicals prior to their introduction on the market after 1970 and there must be an objective point of review and decision on health and safety -matters. ) .. Plans are now being considered for a third Chemical-Toxicological TLV Workshop in 1968. A questionnaire is to be mailed requesting information, from members of the Foundation on specific chemicals of interest to the ACGIH Thres hold Limits Committee, the American Industrial Hygiene Association Hygienic Guides Committee and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Occu pational Health. This questionnaire provides another step towards development of the proposed IHF Central Data Repository to which Dr. Emil Pfitzer re ferred in his 31st Annual Meeting talk and about which Professor Allen Kent and Dr. E. P. Radford, Jr. will have something more to say in the Scientific Conference Chemical-Toxicological Session of the 32nd Annual Meeting. Officers of the Chemical-Toxicological Committee include: Dr. Joseph F. Treon, Atlas Chemical Industries, Inc., Chairman; Dr. John A. Zapp, Jr., E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Co-Chairman; and Dr. Emil A. Pfitzer, Kettering Laboratory, University of Cincinnati, Secretary. Other members of the Committee are: Anna M. Baetjer The Johns Hopkins University C. P. Carpenter Union Carbide Fellowship Mellon Institute H. H. Fawcett National Academy of Sciences H. R. Hoyle The Dow Chemical Company J. C. Radcliffe Ford Motor Company William E. Rinehart Ethyl Corporation Elgin D. Sallee American Can Company H. H. Schrenk Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Herbert E. Stokinger U. S. Public Health Service Engineering ' The Chairman of the Committee, Dr. Lester V. Cralley, Aluminum Company of America, reported that the Third Engineering Discussional, chaired by Mr. Samuel H. Thomas of Owens-Corning Fiberglas, held in January 1967, was a great success and that the program for the Fourth Engineering Discussional prepared by Mr. N. V. Hendricks, Assistant Director for Environmental Sciences, Standard Oil Company (N. J.), is being distributed at the Annual Meeting. Engineering Series Bulletin>No. 7, "Combustible Gas and Vapor De tectors, " was published in 1967 and three other bulletins are in preparation: on waste disposal, oxygen deficiency, and enclosed space ventilation. The Committee's Information Exchange Capsule has been well received but needs "beefing-up. " It is being assigned to an Engineering Committee mem ber and it is hoped that it can be published more frequently, perhaps quarterly next year. ' Industrial Hygiene Highlights--Vol. 1 is now in preparation and is the subject of a special exhibit and announcement at this meeting. In the discussion, Dr. deTreville discussed details of the agreement with Herbick and Held printers and Dr. Cralley as editor, pointing to the possibility of IHF netting up to $25, 000 when the entire first edition of volume 1, i.e., 5000 volumes, is sold. . 19 Dr. Cralley was commended by the Chairman of the Board for the maimer in which the Engineering Committee is carrying out its programs in support of IHF's mission. . Mr. H. Wilbur Speicher, Wes tinghouse Electric Corporation, is Co Chairman of the Engineering Committee and members include: Frederick H. Deeg American Mutual Insurance Alliance N. V. Hendricks Standard Oil Company (N, J.) W. H. Kingsley Sandia Corporation K. M. Morse U. S. Steel Corporation Leo Riconda General Mills, Inc, Kenneth E. Robinson General Motors Technical Center Elgin D. Sallee American Can Company Samuel H. Thomas Owens-Corning Fiberglas Corp. Herbert T. Walworth Lumbermens Mutual Casualty Co. G. M. Wilkening Bell Telephone Laboratories Legal Mr. Andrew Kalmykow, American Insurance Association, Chairman of the Legal Committee reported that the Committee met in New York on June 19. 1967, to review several items of IHF business with Dr. deTreville, including the proposed agreement with the University of Pittsburgh, the proposed Annual Meeting.program, and the proposed Medical Series Bulletin on "The Pneumoconioses. " ' Among other items covered on the agenda were tax credit for industrial hygiene controls, loss of hearing, atomic energy, medicare and medicaid. Two obligations of the Legal Committee are (1) to keep the Foundation's membership informed and (2) to instill rationality into programs. Plans were discussed for increasing the Committee's involvement in providing services to the membership and, as a first step, a questionnaire is being prepared by Dr. deTreville as a means of obtaining suggestions from the Committee's membership. Membership of the Committee includes: William Atkinson Robert B. Rady Continental Can Company, Inc. Republic Steel Corporation W. C. Hartman C. L. Sheckler Squire, Sanders & Dempsey Johns-Manville Corporation Theodore Hetzler, Jr. Douglas H. Sou tar ' American Mutual Insurance Allicance American SiVieiting & Refining C James L. Hill Frank C. Wachter Ford Motor Company .. Pennsylvania Glass Sand Corp. Edward E. Kuebler P. J. Winschel Kuebler & QelDeo Reed, Smith, Shaw & McClay Theodore C. Waters (ex officio) - Medical Chairman Dr. Daniel C. Braun of the United States Steel Corporation reported that while the Medical Committee had not met as a body during the year, he had met personally on several occasions with Drs. deTreville and Gross in preparing the Annual Meeting Program and Medical Series Bulletin No. 12, "The Pneumoconioses. " Because of the importance of the work in the Research Laboratory, a considerable portion of the discussion has related to that phase of the Foundation s activities. In particular, the work dealing with the biological effects of asbestos and other fibrous materials has been followed closely, and in the Medical and Nursing Session tomorrow, afternoon, the paper by Dr. John M. G. Davis of the University of Cambridge will be of interest in this connection. The Medical Committee has also followed with interest the research directed towards the developmext of instruction for industrial nurses in the field of mental health. The paper which will be given by Allen Kent in the ChemicalToxicological Session dealing with a National Industrial Hygiene Information Pro gram is in the process of review as a possible Medical Series Bulletin to be pub lished in the coming year. Also of great interest to the Committee is the proposal of Dr. Philip E. Enterline, IHF Advisory Fellow, regarding the biostatistical study of morbidity and mortality in industrial populations. The Medical Committee expects to be involved in this study from the standpoint of clinical records, analysis of dis pensary visits and diagnostic criteria. Members of the Committee have been circularized for suggestions re garding Committee activities in the coming year. Projects under consideration are: (1) the rapid increase in medical costs and, consequently, in the costs of insurance programs; (2) the feasibility of including in pre-employment examin ations some of the things that are being learned from the on-going studies in mental health; (3) rehabilitation-of-employees injured on the job; and (4) deter rents to putting physically handicapped employees back to work. Dr. Carl U. Dernehl, Union Carbide Corporation, is Co-Chairman of the Medical Committee and Dr. Paul Gross of IHF, Secretary. Other members of the committee are: . Miles O. Colwell, M. D. E. M. Kline, M. D. Aluminum Company of America General Electric Company Lee B. Grant, M. D. - George Roush, Jr,, M. D. PPG Industries Ethyl Corporation Robert J. Halen, M. D. . O. A. Sander, M-D.

Steel Corporation, who accepted Chairman- . ship of the Nursing Committee when Mrs. A dele (Miller) Brownlee resigned in July, 1967, reported that the Nursing Committee met at Mellon Institute on May 10, 1967, with Mr. Harris Shettel and Mrs. Iva Pleasants of The American Institutes for Research and Dr. deTreville for the purpose of evaluating a com prehensive questionnaire and case study record forms which the Committee Mem bers had completed. The questionnaire and forms will be utilized as tools by the project staff in preparing programmed instruction of mental health principles for the continuing education of the occupational health nurse, under the five-year grant to 2HF in the amount of $639, 522 from the National Institute of Mental Health. . The possibility of becoming involved in new programs was discussed by the Committee Members. However, the general consensus was that full cooperation and assistance be given to the present project rather than initiate any new programs at this time. Other members of the Nursing Committee are: Adele C. Brownlee, R.N. General Electric Company Margaret S. Bruder, R.N. Allis-Chalmers Company Dorothy Dean, R. N. Jones & JLaughlin Steel Corp.
