[80] INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE FOUNDATION'S ANNUAL STAFF-REPORT C. RICHARD WALMER, M.D. Mwwfinf Director, Irtdmtrial Hy|l*n* Foundation Progress presaging continuing growth highlights this report. This progress is found in new training programs, new memberships, new comprehensive field surveys and new laboratory studies. It also is found in a program of speaking and writing which staff members entered Into more vigorously since the 1950 Annual Meeting. Indicative of future interest in the Foundation's activities are the many letters of inquiry arriving daily, asking for information on the operation, publications and surveys of Industrial Hygiene Foundation. Surveys in progress are those for the St. Joseph Lead Company and Koppers Company; General Electric Company and Sylvania Electric Products Inc., both joint surveys; Tennessee Copper Com pany: Texas Gulf Sulphur Company; General Steel Castings Com pany; Mutual Chemical Company; and the City'- of Xew Haven. Conn. Two medical surveys were completed during the past year. There are six in the offing. An important environmental study is beiug conducted bj' the Foundation for a major U.S. railroad company. A medical field study for a chemical company was completed in February. An industrial health and safety program is now in progress for a mining company which also will have similar studies and recommendations made for three more of its locations. An investigation of the fate of industrial dusts following inhala tion. which has been in progress for several years for the Biological Department, Chemical Corps. Department of the Army, has been con tinued to determine the relationship between the particle size of inhaled particulates and the site of deposition and percentage reten tion of the material in the human respiratory system under various 'onditions. Specifically, attention has been directed to that portion of the total inhaled material of various particle sizes which is deposited in the alveoli, because it is in the alveoli that particulates constitute the greatest hazard insofar as pulmonary dust diseases are concerned. At a normal breathing rate of 15 respirations per minute, we have shown that, for mineral particles, the optimum size for alveolar deposition is around one micron.

He attended a spring meeting of the American Industrial Hygiene Association in Atlantic City where he presented "`Notes on Design of Exhaust Hoods for Hot Processes." At the 44th annual meeting of the Air Pollution and Smoke Prevention Association at Roanoke. Virginia, in May. Mr. Hemeon discussed "`Instruments for Automatic Air Pollution Meas urements. ' ' Dr. Sehrenk talked on industrial hygiene at the October monthly seminar given by the Department of Pharmacology and the Institute of Occupational Medicine at Yale University. George F. Haines. Jr., chemical engineer with the Foundation, was a speaker at the annual meeting of the Iron and Steel Engineers in October. Aside from contributing numerous papers and articles, Theodore F. Hatch, laboratory director, was a collaborator on the article "A New Apparatus for the Partitioning of Expired Air." in The Bevieiv of Scientific Instruments in February. Mr. Hatch was honored by being selected to receive the 1951 Cummings Memorial Award at the annual meeting of the American Industrial Hygiene Association in Atlantic City in April. This award carries the implication of a personal contribution of high order to the practice of industrial hygiene. He presented the Cummings Lecture. "Objectives. Principles and Practices of Industrial Hygiene," which was subsequently printed in the American Industrial Hygiene Asso ciation Quarterly in June. 1951. The staff contributes a bi-monthly column on industrial hygiene to "Industrial and Engineering Chemistry." Staff members also presented a series of lectures at the Graduate School of Public Health of the University of Pittsburgh.
