S. Bil'ton * February 26, 1971 RM 265A Please see the attached letter from Gerry Morgan of North American Asbestos. Also the 2-24--71 Memo from Bill Brenner from which it appears that we shall be using - in the Cleveland plant alone - around 1200 tons this year. I. called Gerry Morgan today to advise him of our increased consumption of Amosite Asbestos, and learned that he is leaving for England tomorrow. The purpose appears to be to make a pitch for: increased shipments to the U.S.A., and he tells me that the mines are oversold for this year. , In view of this, I am sure that you will want to review the situation regarding grade S44, as described in Miles Macnair's tfcer_of_October 7, Despite the unfavorable jOab report__ (M-4924)'it was "recently necessary for us to take a truckload? .this material in order to keep the plant going. _ * -`} Ll f /in view of Bill Brenner's f o r e c a s t a p p r o x i m a t e l y 1200 tons fi>r the Cleveland plant alone (4^ae=aaPyour projection of 800 jr tons for Cleveland and Chicago combined) it will no doubt be necessary for us to use every grade we can, and for that reason I am sure that you will want to see whether official approval can now be given to the S44 grade, although I understand from Gerry Morgan that this will not be available until around September.
