The published proceedings of the Foundation's Fibrous Dust Seminar which I attended about a year and half ago will issue later this month Copies of the Proceedings should be available for those who attend the Asbestos Conference Part of the proceedings consist of an address by an epidemiologist Dr. Enterline of Pittsburgh who had data on the fate of persons exposed to asbestos Some were exposed for brief periods such as two years then removed from industry and later in their lives developed lung cancer Others beginning work about the same time and continuing towork the asbestos industry developed asbestosis and from this many subsequently died These data should be described in the Proceedings This is an indication it that high exposure levels for fairly brief periods may subse- quently result in deleterious effects Again may be indicative of the production of lung cancer by asbestos even when asbestosis does not develop bjd ote JAMES F.
