Tbs major drop in the price of lead Is a matter of great cor.oern -> many members. Jet, while not a record year, the market for the products of the lead Industry was relatively good and the problem of obtaining enough lead disappeared. Nevertheless, technological developsent and better supplies of materials hitherto scarce Increased c~cpetition with the products of our Industry. Aluminum and plastics In cable sheathe, lithium compounds In ceramics, roller bearings, new methods of printing are only a few of the newer competitors with which the industry oust contend along with all the old competitors with which every member la familiar. The Association was active In protecting and developing market! for the industry in several lines and in trying to find ways of doin; this In others, <Tith a supply-demand balance that makes for a buyers market. It seems that efforts of this kind should be redoubled. It appears that, with a more favour able political climate toward business in which to work, the Association can be even more valuable to the industry. gEXBERSKIP The only change in membership during 1952 was the loss of two menbers through resignation, leaving a total of 60 regular and 7 associate members. Che resignation was from the Metals Refining Co., Hanaond, Ind., which went out of the lead business and the other was received from the Silver Xing Coali tion Mines Co., Salt Lake City, which shut down its mines for an indefinite period. An up-to-date membership list is attached. STATISTICS Chly one change In the Association's statistical ssrvlees was made during the year. The series of reports covering domestio lead and zinc mine labor and lead smelter tnd refinery labor were discontinued as of the end of October, 1952. This resulted from the feeling of a large segment of the Industry I that these reports were no longer needed in view of the easing of the lead and zinc situations and that the burden on accounting departmenta could be lightened by discontinuance. 1 N 2404.01 -. file mam*p LIA 208 63 A Annual Vestingt *JU April 9-10, 1951 ax m mrow Approximately 100 eenbers and guests attended another highly success ful annual meeting of the Aeaociation *t the Drake Hotel, Chlcego, In April, 1952. A set of reeolution* urglrg decontrol of lead by both the Office of Price Stabili sation end National Production Authority in *1*3 of the eased supply situation was unsniaouely adopted. X.P.A. acted accordingly shortly thereafter, but O.P.S. refused to relinquish oontrol for many nonthe until Controls were cased on a broad front* 007T=V1T_VT KJUTT0K3 The easier position of lead throughout moat of the year cade the task of Washington contact, particularly with the emergency egenclet, somewhat lighter* nevertheless these contacts were maintained# However, in the direction of work ing with permanent govemsent agencies, federal, state and local, toward the greater and proper use of lesd ana its produots the need for core activity was obvious. A great deal of specification work with government agencies was needed. In addition to the emergency agencies, regular contacts are maintained with the Department of Defense, Bureau of Standards, Atonic Energy Caaadssion, Department of the Interior, The State Department, public Buildings Administration, federal Housing Authority and others, R'LLETnS AND FUBLICATT CSC Ctf particular note was publication during the year of the Association's new cloth-bound 230-page book, "Dead in Kodern Industry," after several years of preparation. Seventy-five hundred copies were printed. Single cespliaentary copies have been distributed to Decbers and particular friends cf the Association to the amount of about 600. The balance is being offered to Interested people at VI*50 per copy, slightly less than cost, with a lower price for large quanti ties. Thus to date about 1,700 copies h*ve boen distributed in this manner. The book is an up-to-date and greatly enlarged edition of the Association's original book, "Useful Information About Lead,1 published in 1931. It has received generous praise from industry, educational and other circles. Two issues of Lead" were published in 1953 and circulated to about 35,000 users and prospective users of lead and its products. The continued interest shown in this publication by its recipients and the volume of corres pondence and Inquiries that each issue generates, together with the easier lead situation, warrants serious consideration of more frequent publication. Relaxation of government controls lessened the need for Defense Bulletins for members and only Hi were issued in 1952 to post members on government controls. Seven Information Bulletins were issued to provide members with information gleaned from various sources that might not otherwise come to their attention* LOADItf} AND FACKAOINO At the request of several members an Informal committee was formed to study the problem of improvirg loading and packaging methods for pig lead for rail shipment. This committee first met In December and at a later meeting a small sub-comittee was appointed to work intensively on the problem and report back to the largor committee and to the membership as a whole. It appears that considerable progress Is being made. fW LH 20817 -JP* Annual Meetingi -3- l ead tnnrna 11 *' 1--' April 9-10, 1953 The following le a suawj lead hygiene| our principal activities in the field of 1. Childhood lead poisoning continued to be a major probleo and sewroa of much adverse publicity. Consequently we continued our grant of (2,200 per year to the Harvard Medical School to study this problem, A new grant of 10,000 for a year's intensive study of the problem was mVle to the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, the work starting in July, 1952, 2. A new drug, Ca EBTA (calcium ethylenedi aminetetraacetate) haa been under investigation as an antidote for lead poiaonlng. Indications arc suffi ciently favorable and interest eo broad, that we are serving aa a clearing heuaa for information and otherwise aiding in tho developoont. 3. Our investigation of the safety of red lead paints for water tank interiors, which previously revealed sufficiently favorable data to remove an objectionable paragraph fren a federal specification, has been continued to assure us of adequate data to cccbat any future attacks on red lead in this direction, it. The Association is sponsoring and is represented on a caasittee of the American Standards Association which will endeavor to establish standards for tho safe labeling of paint to be used on children's furniture and toys, 5. Our efforts to have provided throughout the country adequat e labor atory facilities to make reliable lead determinations to aid in accurate diag nosis of lead poisoning are bearing fruit, host recontly this has been notice able in Cleveland and Salt Lake City. 6. Arrangements were made to havs a acientlfic cxnibit, at no cost to us for space, at the annual meeting of the American Medical Association in Hew York in Juno, 1953, This was by invitation and will be one of a group of exhibits on childhood accidents. Dors will be devoted to educating doctors in childhood plunbism. 7. Eleven Hyrleno and Safety Bulletins were issued during 1952, Of these seven were Legislative Reports, mailed only to rjeebers who had signified an interest in them. The data used in compiling the Legislative Pajporto have been useful in several Instances in nipping ill-advised and discriminatory state legislation in the bud, 8. Nearly 500 newspaper clippings featuring lead poisoning, often In sizeable headlines, were received in 1952. Those involving the moot flagrant and obvious reinstatement of fact have been follored up with a view to correcting the underlying misconceptions, 9. Many nestings of organizations dealing with our own health problama were attended. They Included the American Industrial HYRiene Association, American Medical Association, Congress on Industrial Health cf the A.V.A,, American Public Health Association, Fodoration of Aooricjif ?tei.eties for Experimental Biology, Greater New York Safety Council, Iri- : -ini Hygiene Foundation, Vas.-.act.usetts Medical Society and tho National c'futy Council, uur Health and Safety Director took part as a speaker in Dues of those mootings and also attended number of smaller or specialized meetings. wv >" mm-f'^ruiwiwun^wi i\is pw pw i .m> *' '<--Pni'.'ii*in fi, %jmwiwn" --- LIA20865 ***--* Annual Mm ting i -U- April >-10, 1953 10, In December, the director# ordered form*tion of a medical committee 0 of doctors representing members to determine whether they consldored e notion picture or elido film better for the education of doctors and students In the various problems ci lead poisoning.

Many emanated fren members themselves. Much tins was devoted to telephone and personal calls and correspondence In handling these probloma. me t a l l ic l ead monies p iv is io w A report of this Division's activities was sent to Members of tho Division on November IS, 1952. tho following euanarites these activities! 1, Ta have sontinuod to promote tho uso of lead in plumbing and water works systems and the proper provision for it in plumbing codes through two field on calling personally on plumbers, engineers, and government officials, and by addressing meetings of plumbers' organisations, 2, In order to provide an adequate number of competent lead workers we have alao promoted instruction of load work in plumbers apprentice alassos and have had the cooperation of members in supplying materials to these classes at low coat, 3, The publication of PLUMBERS' FCRUM, on a four-time-a-year basis, with circulation of approximately 26,000 in the plumbing industry, has been continued, ti. Tie again had an exhibit at the annual convention of the National Association of Master Plumbers, 5. Our traveling exhibit, sponsored by this Division in cooperation with the pigments and Chemicals Division, appeared at three additional architectural colleges in 1952, 6. Although our booklet, "LEAD IN MODERN FLUMBnO" was given its major circulation in 1951* about 1,100 more copies were circulated as s result of inquiries recoivod, 7. The text book on plumber's lead work, authorised at the beginning ef the year to bo printed from a special fund, was completed st the year end. In the first 2j months sinco its publication over half of tho total printing of 3,000 copies were sold, 8. The Federal Trade Comission acted favorably on our complaint against Plastic Lead, filed in 191*9, Informing ua that the producer had agreed to dlsaontlnuc the unfair methods of competition of which ve had ccnplainod, 9. A member of the staff has continued to dovote approximately 50 per sent of hia time to tho study and promotion of tho use of lead in chemical construction, 10, Four ehcmical bulletins, dealing with tho use of lead la chemical construction, havo been circulated to members during the year. w-w iw mw s %3ih w iim iw wwn Fiji- y LIA20866 April 9-10, 1953 11, Two chemical construction bulletin*, dealing with similar problsas, haw* been distributed to college* teaching chemical snjlneering, to chemical conatruction caspsnle*, to chemical manufacturers and others Interested. 12, Two articles on the use of lead In chonlcal construction wers prepared, one appearing In "CHEMICAL ENOINEERINO" and the other In "AIR REPAIR." 13, An article, dealing with the corrosion resistance of lead to a wide variety of corrosive chemicals, was prepared for publication In the Corrosion forum Section of "CHEMICAL EN3INEERHG." It has el nee been published. 111. A new booklet on "LEAD W MERN CHEMICAL COiSTRUCTICN" haa been prepared and submitted to members for cccnsnts and crltieiaas before publication and circulation. 15. A now Standard for lead pipe for the Chemical Process Industries haa been prepared and circulated to members for checking and approval. 16. Two lectures were delivered to college students during the year, one on "LEAD AS AN EJOIIEERIIO MATERIAL* at the Newark College of Engineering, and the other on "CCRRC6ICN RESIST.;ICE CF LEAD" a* part of a short course on corro sion at Case Institute of Applied Technology, Cleveland, Ohio. 17. Our Soldering Subcommittee of tho Brazing and Soldering Canalttee of the American Holding Society held several meetings during tho year and has made considerable progress towards the preparation of a Soldoring Handbook. The Camsittee is composed of representatives of four member companies who manufacture colder, under tho chairmanship of a member of tho Association staff, 18. A number of articles which appeared in PLUVTEERS' FCRUM during tho year have been reprinted in other plumbing publications. 19. Although not at the expense of this Division, the Association's publication, "LEAD" has carried In each issue several articles on tho use of metallic lead products. 20. Also at no expense to this Division, the Association's new book "LEAD IN MODERN INDUSTRY" has many chapters dealing with the use of metallic lead products, 21. We have continued to circulate to marcher* housing bulletins listing public and military heusirg projects as announced from Washington. 22. A staff member continues to serve on the plumbing Advisory Cooalttes of tho National Rosearch Council. 23. Many inquiries for assistance In the us* of metallic lead products srs constantly handled by correspondence, telephone and personal contact. 2Li.

The Association approached Or. S. R. Scholes, dean of the School of Cerasdcs t Alfred University, one of the outstanding ceramic schools of the country, with the request that he sake a survey of the ceremlc Industry and report to the Association what he considers lead's competitive position to be and what sight be done about it by our Industry. After studying the problem, Dean Scholes reported that he thought the Industry would be unwise to spend money to prenot* lead In this field, feeling that factors beyond our control would daterain* how such lead Is used* ACPtCrUSOMSSTS The secretary wirhes gratefully to acknowledge the lcyal support of ths membership and the advice and Interest of the officer* and director* which have made the successful functioning of the Association possible.
