Do you see depicted towards the lower right side of the flow-sheet a dust collector connexted by what is shown in the legend as "dust pipes to dust suckers-?------Yes.
One at the Traylor mill - -- --?-----Yes-
crusher / one at the number 1 hammer *. *i
One over a transfer point depicted just below the number 1 hammer mill?---Yes.
One at the number 2 rolls crusher. - One. at a transferor's^point just before the number 3 rolls crusher. I think ' that is all the locations- Does that depiction of dust suckers/ pipes/ and dust collector depict the whole of the dust-collection and control system that was in place in Wittenoom when you were there in about April 1952?----Well/ almost in my regard. This was indicated as only one wet dust collector/ if you can take it literally/ which is quite incorrect. It doesn't show any other dust collecting equipment at all/ which is quite incorrect.
It shows five cyclones apparently exhausting into atmosphere?
\ --Whatever they are supposed to do there. It doesn't actually
'.say but the whole thing just shows no sign of any multiclones/
no sign of any Yan Gelder socks, no sign of anything.
One would have to assume there was no such thing/ which
there was.
Even the one shown here is - whether it
is meant to be a sort of typical piece I don't know.
I don't know what he had in mind but even on that point
there was certainly more than one Warman collector.
In operation?------In operation/ yes.
Thank you. Perhaps that might be returned. Did you make another overseas trip at the end of 1552?---Yes.
Where did you go?-------To the United States of America.
Die that trip have any connection with asbestos activities?---It was almost solely to try and investigate the market for blue fibre in the United States of America.
Did you visit any plants that handled asbestos?--Yes, I did.
Where were they?-------1 revisited the Johns-Manville plants at Manville, New Jersey. I visited a place called Keasbey and Mattison, which I have lately had my memory jogged on, and is in (inaudible) Pennsylvania. I also visited an asbestos cement plant in New Orleans run by some people called Asbesto and I paid a very brief visit to the Johns-Manville asbestos milling operations - not their mine - up in Quebec, Canada.
Did you see any of these plants in operation?------Each
of the plants I have mentioned, except, I think, Keasbey
and Mattison. My recollection is I was not allowed to
see their actual operations - had discussions with the
staff but not their operations.
