PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
TO MEMBERS
Robert T P deTaeville. M D , Sc D
The vear 19*0. which was characterized by unprecedented progress in almost every area of environmental and occupational health in our industrial society, also saw the following major developments in IHF.
IHF's image has been effectively updated by substitution of "health" for "hygiene" in our name, to cover all aspects of employee health conservation as well as environmental and occupational hazard control and prevention.
We estimate that one employee in 10 t i. e.. 8.000,000! in the United States now benefits directly from various programs of health research within our Foundation's membership. All workers, internationally, can benefit indirectly, of course, through IHF publications. IHF's laboratory research role in support of American industry, which is comparable to that of the Armed Forces Insti tute of Pathology to our military establishment, is growing steadily under Dr. Paul Gross' direction.
A continuing educational acadermc role for IHF. now emerging, should become no less important to American industry than has been the Industrial College of the Armed- Forces to our national security in matters of economic health. The most advanced protect in this area now under way is our continuing educational course in employee mental health prepared with the American Institutes for Research for occupational health nurses (under National Institute of Mental Health sponsorship since 19651 which should be introduced into trial use in IHF's membership m 19T1. Other instructional courses in prepara tion i or under consideration ; deal with orientation in industrial hygiene for those whose experience has been limited to safety (i. e.. how to cope with industrial hygiene provisions of new Federal legislation) and industrial hygiene and safety management for future industrial executives.

Undoubtedly, our field will be a much larger ;ource of employment ;n tr.e future, vener ating need for new forms of `raining ana continuing education m sucn :lelds as bio^tatftic:
data collection, storage and retrieval in uipport ->f "pidemioiogical research as -.veil 3; docu mentation of compliance with occupational neaith and -afety -tanaards. Among IHF'- re<ear-.h programs for 1971 are data collection -tudies en -mnlovee mental health and cigarette 'rack ing and sickness absence. Clinnal atm environmental .information collected bv industry--ir.d fed anonymously into IHF'- central repository of toxicological data--w-,il have unicue -aiue ;n >etting and validation of -tandaro- tor human exposure, and this program will continue ind grow as rapidly as experience md m-traints of time and funds will allow and through liaison with organizations -uch as tr.e American National Standards Institute.
Industrial health gives every indication of being an idea whose time has finally arm- ed. and we in IHF wish to further its application and real progress in our field to the maximum advantage of all concerned. Companies and industries are being forced by austerity to anpiv the same type of sound management in the fields of environmental and occupational health `hat thev are using in every other area of productivity and economic loss control. As a resuit, at a time when more superficial programs of all types are experiencing increasing difficuity in surviving, those which are soundlv ba^ed in relation to measurable benefits in employee health and safety for the limited costs incurred are having a continued--and even an acceler ated--growth pattern. The increasing -hortage of qualified industrial health personnel at "he national level is being more widely recognized as having reached crisis proportions and alter natives to employment full time of qualified occupational health specialists will need to be found. The coming vear and decade are bound to witness much greater utilization of non technical personnel who should perform more effectively, following completion of short courses under the continued competent professional occupational health supervision available within IHF.
In conclusion, let me take this opportunity to express thanks to Foundation members for their past guidance in helping IHF bring into better focus the real health needs of industry workers today, and to solicit their continued interest and support.

FIBROUS DUSTS
When fibrous dusts are injected intratracheal!polypoid inflammatory lesions develop within :ol days in smaller bronchi and bronchioles. These ter.
to heal and disappear in time. These lesions are art
factual in the sense that they are not found i animals inhaling the same dusts. It rs therefor
reasonable to attribute the proliferative pmypoi
lesions to the particular technique by which th
dusts have been introduced into the lungs. This wor has been published: "The Pulmona^r Response t Fibrous Dusts of Diverse Compositions." Paul Gro;
et al. Am. Ind. Hvg. Assn. J. 31:125-132 (March
April) 1970.
'
The method of quantitating the fibrous dust an ferruginous bodies in lungs of Pittsburghers and :h
results obtained was reported at the Third Interne
tional Symposium on Inhaled Particles (Londot September 16-23, 1970) and will be published in th
proceedings of this meeting. (Sponsors: Johns-Mar
ville Corporation; PPG Industries; Pittsburgh Corr ing Corporation; Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.; U.

ASBESTOS
Because of an epizooty which decimated the ra and hamsters injected intratracheally with asbestc dust (chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite) treated i variousriways to render the dust metal-free. ne> animals have been injected with these material These new animals are now under observation. Sine the purpose of this study is to determine the locus c pathogenicity of asbestos dust -- particularly th carcinogenicity--the animals will be allowed to li-. out their lives.

FIBROUS GLASS
-^
The results of a study of the dust in the lungs of 20 long-term fibrous glass workers has been sub mitted for publication. The amount of total dust, the number of fibers per gram of dry lung, the dimension' of the fibers in the lungs of the fibrous glass workers "ere not sigmficantlv different from -irmiar data derived from the lungs of Pittsburghers not occupationailv exposed to fibrous glass dust.
A new -tudv has been begun on the rate of transport of fibrous dust particles from lung tissue to ivmnn nodes Preliminary data indicate that only few fibers are transported to lymph nodes--and these are shorter and thinner than the average fiber found in the lungs. (Sponsors Certain-teed Products Corporation; Johns-Manville Corporation; OwensComing Fiberglas Corporation. PPG rndustr.es
LIPID-COATED QUARTZ
The lungs of rats injected intratracheallv with quartz dust that had been coated with lipids extracjgd from the lungs of animals with "acute" silicosis "ere compared with thelungs of rats injected intratracheallv with the same quartz dust but uncoated. His tological examination and chemical determinations of the lipid, hvdroxyproline. and silica contents of the lungs disclosed no significant differences. The probable explanation is that the lipid coating on the quartz particles was removed too quickly by natural enzymatic processes Sponsor: Department of Health. Education & Welfare. National Institutes of Health.
COMMUNITY LUNG STUDY.
In order to determine the magnitude of the fibrous dust, and particularly, the Asbestos dust bur den in the lungs^of known asbestSrworkers as well is of people who have not lived in a large metropolis, -elected lungs are being collected from people be longing m the above, categories. The fibrous dust "ill he isolated, and quantitated optically according to methods elaborated-In IHF's Research Laboratory and nublished. With the collaboration of Dr. John M. G Davis of Cambridge, England, aliquots of the fiber suspensions will be examined with the electron microscooe for the enumeration of submicronic fibers and the identification of chrysotile fibers.

MENTAL HEALTH PROJECT
IHF'- continuing education studv on emcio'mental r.eaith and industrial nursing practices .r.g conducted bv the American Institutes for ; -earch is now- in its fifth year.
Activities during Years 1 and 2 "ere ''oncer-, primarily with the collection of relevant data - n turrent 'tatus of the role of occupational :.ea. nurses in working "lth the emotional and ps-> iogical problems of employees. The third vear devoted to analysis and interpretation of data j "he fourth vear to the development of invrucuvr matenals. During Year 5 efforts will be concentrate n program implementation, i. e.. how the fir. course will be packaged and made available to u total population of occupational health nun
This project has been supported bv a -:;vp.grant from the National Institute of Mental Hea. and it is anticipated that continuing studies w-,;. needed for maintaining the viability of the course well as for collecting useful data relating to t extent and types of mental health problems in :: i us try as seen by the occupational nurse ; data r. now available).
IHF/ATMI RESPIRATORY STUDY
A studv of cotton texqfct workers was unde
taken by IHF in December
at the request of tr
American Textile Manufacturers Institute ATM! to attempt to determine whether or not there at respiratory problems peculiar to the cotton text: industry in the Unitea States, and. if so. to .dentif the causative factors and thus permit their ccr.trthrough industrial health and nvgiene practices.
A respiratory condition termed bvssinosis ha
been found in other countries, but has been vague, defined and no specific patho-physioiogic or eti-.iog: descriptions have been given. It is characterized b subjective complaints of tightness of the chest : difficulty in breathing which may or may not b accompanied by a significant decline in Forced E>
piratory Volume (FEV). The Foundation's study wag designed around
12-plant matrix into which could be placed protc types of plants processing only cotton, according ` increasing rates of card speed and decreasing grade
of cotton.
To elicit reliable information regarding subiec tive symptoms, it was necessary to construct
questionnaire to be administered to employees wh.e: the prototype plants were visited. A belfows-tvpe spi rometer was selected for measuring pulmonary tunc
tion in the field.
The results of replies to questionnaires and o ulmonary function tests on all workers tested hav.
een analyzed and 8mpared.
On the basis of the preliminary data it ncv appears that a specific causative agent may possibh be isolated, perhaps related to the microbioiogica
components of cotton dust.
