Lear Dr. Lanza:
I an handing you herewith the galley proof of your preliminary study entitled "Effects of Inhalation of Asbestos Fust upon the uUngs of Asbestos workers". I am also enclosing copy of Yr. Hobart's letter to me of December 15th which contains his comments as to certain aspects of the study that he considers undesirable from the industry viewpoint. I trust that you will rive his comments and suggestions, as well as those mentioned in my letter of December 10th, your most serious consideration. I am sure that you understand fully that no one In our organization is suggesting for a moment that you alter by one jot or tittle any scientific facts or inevitable conclusions revealed or justi fied by your preliminary survey. All we ask is that all of the favorable aspects of the survey be included and that none of the unfavorable be unintentionally pictured in darker tones than the circumstances justify. I feel confident we can depend upon you and Dr. YcConnell to give us this "break" and mine and Yr. Hobart's suggestions are presented in this spirit.
Sincerely yours.
