Lead Industries Association, Inc. 292 Madison Avenue New York, N. Y. 10017 Telephone: (212) 679-6020 April 23, 1971 C. Calandra Roush, Jr. E. Hesselberg Nelson D. R. Diggs G. V. Stopps P. S. I. Barry Gentlemen: Enclosed is a particularly unpleasant diatribe entitled, "Behind the Lead Curtain" by Mrs. Polly Roberts. This article appeared in "Clear Creek" of San Francisco which appears to be a sort of ecological "Confidential". A news release was also issued by Clear Creek outlining the charges of "suppression" made in the article. I don't know the extent of the pick up of this release by newspapers. I thought that this article was noteworthy because of its degree of viciousness. Sincerely, J. F. Cole, Sc. D. Manager, Environmental Health eg: Enc. cc S. F. Radtke J. L. Kimberley D. M. Borcina C.
