1 he detrimental to white lead. Ft are pleased to say tht very 11?U nn**ror.l ? hos been encountered this year fron the prepared paint Industry as * result of our advertising. Fe feel that * found; tIon has been laid In the interest of white lead, which will enable us to becoRe Bor# specific and definite In our advertlslne then we felt was possible or advisable during our flrat year of activity.

L'*er today yon will have the opporttmlty to consider
the 1940 nlars, but I would like to assure you that these Z
plans have teen conceived s * result of a great deal of
theurht and study by our own Berbers who have devoted such
tine and study to this subject In the oast few norths. Fhat
we have to propose In the way of 1940 plana represents the
5 unanlrous conclusion of our Advertising CoKsittee, our arency
and he rest of us wh- have been slttlnr In these r*etlrrs.
rjrlnr the past year there hare been a rreat narty ratters of policy or. which there have taa differences of opinion, but
-
It is pleasant to be able to report that at the conclusion of
our first year, *ost of th*se questions have been satisfactorily
received and we find ourselves In quite renepal agreement on
:
what has been done and aecowpllshed. There ere still aany ratters of policy that are not as yet settled, which continue
to receive our corMned thourht and study, end we are sanrulne
enourh to believe that a satisfactory solution will be found
for these, beru:*e of the cooperative spirit belnf shown by ell rEbers of our industry in Bvetlnf such Issue* as they
|
arise.
*
i This e*np-lrn has beep well and rner"lly supported by our
Industry. As you b-", the -tripe pd
Interests are
~4 suite renerally reoreaente'*, mv* we are very hopeful sj we enter
the second year of th casoMyn, that before lor.r we will be able
to reroe. that the white l*-r.d Interests are 199* represented.
Thor* are three wMte lead produ-ers w* o did not contribute to
this cr.r.pe.lm In 19.'9. Two of then are rlsed paint e*nufaet>;rers,-
^herwln-Fllllaas and The 911d-*en Co., - the third Is a wMte lead
producer In Chloem who Vs Just Joined us and will participate
'roa now on. T an very hopeful, - core o then I have hecn for
so-e tine past, - that at least one of tV rreps-ed paint aenu-
fcturrs will shortly be with us. nd think that It Is core than
a op.fp Change the second er, will Join US before 1949 Is over.
So that we i" into 1319 with all of our old subscrlMr.f members,
with one new addition and the chanc* la favorable for two others.
before proceeding to the recnlar agenda of tv1s reetlnr, I would live to thar.V all of the subscribing Beaters for the aplnd1d cooperation which tney have shown In our work this year, y>' y of the eopr nr.le* have devoted coral irthie tine to our work and In addition to their money contribution, have really contrl
bu*ed In M'* and *t*nM of their -opl* that has teen a wajor factor In our work.

He explained that a nutter of suggestions with regard to th* advertlslnr hid been e*d* by represertatlves of the net-ter cospanles and that
several of these suggestions had teen Incorporated In th* 19*0 plans. He stowed layou*s of the treatment as planned fer 10*0.

beauty of painting with white lead. Also, the booklet, "That to Fxpeet frra Kb.lte Lead Ps'.rt,* Is to b* Illustrated In the ads to drew core attention to It. Th* palr.t*r Insert will be continued because of the rood-will It hss engenered a bo nil painters and painting contractors. The headlines will be ehanred frn son* cf those used durlnr 1979 In order not to show th* elner as an authority on oslnt. The closing paragraph of the copy will be expanded to Include a reference to hirh lead content tlxed pln*s,
vr. Cobbs then read a report of the steps leading u p to thl* particular ohas* of the nw tre~trnt as a result cf the Chicago n*"tir. on October f*, and so"* sugres'ed pattern paragraphs. The following onri-rraph was approved unanlcously as a pattern, not necessarily for wording, but for cor.texti
"It's a good Idea, when you're buying paint, to know how mieh white load It contains - and It's a pretty safe rule to ssy, the higher the lead `een'ent - th" better the paint. Y^u can't, for exrerle, buy a nor" durable pint than one cntMr.lnr loo> rhite-lead, such as your painter clxea fro lead-in-oil or la sold ready to us*.*

Dear Fallxt
You say recall our conversation In your offlc* when w
were discussing the formulas for pure whit* load prepared
paint In which 1 expressed misgiving about the low content of
<
pigment In aone of these paints. Further consideration of the subject leads b * to write you about It because I feel
1
sure that there are serious dangers In the situation about
which you should Inquire very carefully.
You know that we have long emphasised certain Impor tant advantages of pure white lead paint that cosmend It strongly to many paint users. . Two of these advantages are
B !
particularly pertinent to this discussion: (1) white lead
paint. In the form of aoft paste. Is practically a standard
ized product In to* sense that, though sold under s nunher of
traoe brands, it has essentially the sane composition regard less of brand. As a result It Is the only whit* paint that
..
nontechnical person* can buy with full assurance that they are
getting a product of best quality. A further result Is that
recognized standards of proper use of white lead pslnt have
ben developed so tnat disinterested organisations such as the
lusher associations, the bureau of Standards, and this labora
tory can tell the public in simple language how to us* whit*
lead correctly. (!) Because of the uniformly high quality
of paste white lead as well as certain of Its technical merits,
the outstanding characteristic of pure white lead paint has
been reliability. Wlth.no other paint can the user tell be forehand "just what service he can exp*et and with no other
?
paint Is there so llttla danger of falling to get the expected
service.
If by promoting the sale of the new prepared white lead paints these two outstanding advantages of pur* whit* lead paint should be destroyed or eertously Impaired I as afraid
that the whit# lead producer* will lose far *or# than they can #p-et to gain from Interesting the smaller paint manufacturers In the sal* of prepared white lead paints. Furthensore, If the fin# reputation earned In the past by paste white lead Is destroyed, I feel sure that the present Interest In prepared
white lead paints will prove short lived.

Tha paint on which the reputation of white lead raata contains 5.6 par cant by volume of white lead pigment, tha tot; 1 nonvolatile natter is 93.4 par cent, and In tha dried fila tha pigment is 7.5 par cant by volume. for tha pre pared paint tha corresponding data a re 16.9 par cant, 84.9 far cant and 19.9 per cant. I realize that tha prepared
paint is cade with white lead of high oil absorption and high opacity, which rives it a consistency and ^pairanct in tha bucket much Ilka real white lead paint but certainly does not aka it a paint of comparable quality or utility. I am ready to recognize that there may be some slight difference in the optimun ratio of pliant to tt*.l nonvolatile for tha different
vhlte leada but 1 aa certainly not i.t all ellllng to concede that It may be of the order of 0 per cant In place f 7.5.

K# auat recognise, of course, that If prepared white lead paint la to be made by paint manufacturers and sold to
the paint user In competition with paste whit* load, which does not go through the hands of a paint canufscturwr, *lthr the prepared paint Bust sell at a higher price or It Bust bo
cheapened In s o b* aay. Personally I think that the former T ' course cusi be taken If the two great merits of vbite lead ] pelnt that I have mentioned are to be maintained. On th*
other hind, If the latter course Is decided upon, Z think that It would prove eery much better In th* long run to cheapen the oalnt by adding barytes, magnesium silicate, or sorething of that kind so that the plgnent content could be kept high and, further, so that th* buyer would be less likely to misunderstand the quality of the product he is buying.
Ho doubt I have selected one of th* least satisfactory * of the new prepared white lead paints at ay example. The for-
ault of the or* cad* by Hooker, however. Is not much better. ''n the other hand the one nade by Patek In Milwaukee, rhlch I believe is the pioneer If w# except Catlonal Lead's "Liquid Lead," carries a nueh more substantial proportion of plrsent. T should like to get a fairly good rerket picture of this situation and have thought of writing to the list of rnanu-
far'urers of prepared white lead paint th*t you gave we In X't York, asking them to send ce st-ple labels, the foneula If r^t given on th# label, and the color cards. It occurs to me, however, thr.t you might not wish we to rake such use of
the list you gtve re or perhaps right be ln*erested In collect ing the Informtlrn yourself and then passing it on to ne. Please let ne know your thoughts on the utter.
Very truly yours,
