These ad3, so be published under she caption '"7:0 HTTPS AS3Z57IS will appear in certain trade papers beginning in Hovember 19o9. hr. hrr.err.at commented favorably on the makeup of the acs and felt it v;as a constructive effort to acquaint the public with the Importance cf asbestos products in today's world. If. hr. C.L. Sneakier, Chairman of the Environmental Study Committee-, reviewed for the benefit of the Soard several v~evelcom.er.es that have taken place since the last nesting. He again stressed that his corur.ittee acts only in an advisory capacity. The highlights of his remarks, (unedited by hr. Sheckler; follow Confidential Information is that the J.S.'hH. Service is preparing a Position Paper cn health aspects of asbestos, and hr. cheekier has reviewed a draft of sans. USPH3 gives opinion that asbestos hazard can be controlled except for mesothelima. Question of what Threshold Value should be established for asbestos reviewed* British Standards of number of fibers per cc (2 or 12 fibers per cc have beer suggested)- compromise may be 6 fibers per cc which means one million particles per cubic foot. Does not know when US?HS paper will be published but thinks in about six months/ possibly. In his opinion the asbestos industry should be dsfended-by an association rather ' than by an individual company. Hr. Sheckler met recently with Dr. Selikoff, also representatives cf respiratory safety equipment manufacturers, and representatives of the U.5. Bureau of kir.es. An improved protective respiratory device --13 been develotei but it will net be marketed until, ~ur.lett, it is approved by the V.d. Bureau of ..'ir.es.

Several companies have prototypes cf respirators, including J/M, awaiting U.3. Bureau cf mines approval. In respect to the Havy's search for a substitute for asbestos cloth as well as other asoestos products, Hr. Sheckler is under the opinio: that the kavy dees r.ot necessarily want nor.-asbes tos products, cut elimination cf dust is their primary objective. Corot an ting on legislation - present and pending -- Hr. Sheckler mentioned that compensation cases were not decreasing - quite the contrary in fact' Examination of the employees in J/'k's narshviiie, H.

I. meeting, hr. Gainey felt that we should defer it as timing was not right. It was the concensus of the Board that any invitation to Dr. Selikoff should be deferred. Also that if, and when, invited to speak that Gr. Selikoff agree there would be ng> publicity release in ccmsccio; with his talk at the Institute meeting, The question of preparing a Posi hr.
