MINUTES
MEETING OF MEMBERS
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania October 20, 1965
The Annual Meeting of the Members of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc. was held at Mellon Institute, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, October 20, 1965, at 4:40 p.m. pursuant to notice. Mr. E. K. Davison, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, presided.
Mr. Theodore C. Waters, who had been previously appointed by the Chairman to examine the proxies, reported that there were 113 companies represented by proxies that were in proper form and fully executed. The member companies represented by proxy or in person constituted a quorum. A list of the member companies represented by proxies and a copy of the notice of the meeting and proxy sent to all members of the Corporation are on file in the Minute Book.
Since there were no objections or corrections to the minutes which were mailed to all member companies following the October 21, 1964 meeting, a motion was made by Mr. Waters and seconded by Dr. Robert B. O'Connor to dispense with the reading of the minutes and they be approved as mailed out. The Chair man stated that the Minute Book was available and open at the meeting for in spection by members.
Mr. Waters read the following statement in memory of Alfred C. Hirth:
"In Memory of Alfred C. Hirth Industrial Hygiene Foundation 1935 - 1958
WHEREAS, ALFRED C. HIRTH has served faithfully as a member of the Board of Trustees, and Chairman of the Legal Committee of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc. since its organization and upon its Board of Trustees; and
WHEREAS, his services have extended to all member companies and he has always-discharged responsibilities assigned to him with exceptional ability, rugged honesty and fidelity to the welfare of this Foundation and to industry. In his relationship with members, he has been an esteemed and valued personal friend and able business associate. His humility, character and attractive per sonality won for him the respect and affectionate regard of all with whom he came in contact, and undeterred by his own physical handicaps, he devoted his life and talents to the cure of the illness of others and the correction and control of industrial hazards to enable his fellow men to have better and safer conditions under which to perform their daily tasks;
Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the members of Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc. , that we regret with heartfelt sorrow the loss of our fellow Member and commend his high character and kindly demeanor as an ideal of personal conduct and as an example to his fellow man.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that out of respect for the memory of our deceased friend and in recognition of his valued services to industry and to the Foundation, we direct that these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of this meeting and that a copy of them be sent to the family of Alfred C. Hirth as a token of the sympathy and regard of the members of this Foundation. "
A motion was made, seconded, and unanimously carried that this resolu tion be adopted.
Dr. H. H. Schrenk then read the following statement in memory of Dr. Royd R. Sayers:
"In Memory of Royd R. Sayers Industrial Hygiene Foundation 1936 - 1953
It is a privilege to be asked to honor the late Dr. Royd R. Sayers by pre senting a Resolution for adoption at the 30th Annual Meeting of the Industrial Hy giene Foundation of America, Inc.
WHEREAS, DR. ROYD R. SAYERS served on the Foundation's original Medical Committee in 1936, and also as a member of the Board of Trustees; his vision and comprehension of the need for teamwork among the various professions contributed much to the rapid expansion of occupational health activities; and
WHEREAS, he brought to the Foundation a broad background of experience on a wide variety of research which was conducted under his direction. The re sults of many of these research projects have significance to problems which are still important. These include early studies on ethyl gasoline, silicosis, carbon monoxide poisoning, oxygen-helium in diving, organic fluoride refrigerants, and effects of high temperatures and humidity; and
WHEREAS, his ability to organize and administer research programs is exemplified by the many successful projects carried out between the Bureau of Mines and the Public Health Service. The rapid growth of the Division of Occu pational Health in the Public Health Service under his direction, and the expansion of health and safety during his service as Director of the Bureau of Mines; and
WHEREAS, the life of Dr. Sayers exemplified the highest ideals of pro fessional and public service, and we in the Foundation who have benefited from his leadership and friendship, are grateful for his long association in the affairs of the Foundation.
' Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED in this 30th Annual Meeting of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc,, that we regret the loss of our friend and founder, and commend his high character and integrity as an ideal of personal conduct and as an example in the management of this enter prise; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that out of respect for the memory of our deceased friend and in recognition of his valued services to the Foundation, we do now direct that these Resolutions be spread upon the minutes of this meet ing and a copy of them be sent to the family of Dr. Sayers as a token of our sympathy. "
A motion was made, seconded, and unanimously carried that this resolu tion be adopted.
The Chairman then made the following statements to the membership:
"Last year at the Annual Business Meeting of the Members of this Foun dation it was necessary for me to sound a note of alarm on the financial condi tion of the Foundation. I pointed out that the principal sources of income to sup port Foundation activities are:
1. Membership Dues 2. Engineering Surveys for Members 3. Research Laboratory Contracts for Members 4. Research Laboratory Contracts for Government
In the years 1959 through 1962, the Foundation was able to operate with modest excesses of income over expenditures, the largest being $5,500 in 1962. In 1963 and 1964, because of drastic declines in the value of projects performed for members, we operated at a deficit of $4, 700 in 1963 and nearly $13, 000 in 1964. So far as the staff and the Board of Trustees could predict early in 1965, this year could result in another deficit of $13,000 or $14,000. Fortunately, reimbursable services to members have exceeded our earlier estimates. Ac cording to Professor Hatch, our Treasurer, it now appears that the 1965 deficit will be about one-third of what was anticipated at the beginning of the year.
It became evident to the Board of Trustees that a decision would have to be made on-one of three alternatives:
1. Phase-out and dissolve the Foundation. 2. Reduce the functions of the Foundation to:
a. Publication of the Digest b. Consultation c. An Annual Meeting d. Various Seminars and Discussionals e. Discontinue Research Laboratory and
Engineering functions.
Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
3. Try to continue the Foundation in its services and functions, subject to increased financial support by the membership in the form of increased dues and grants.
The Executive Committee and the Trustees were almost unanimous in concluding that the Foundation's usefulness to industry justifies continued opera tion in the present functions and authorized a dues increase of 50% to become effective January 1, 1966, with minimum annual dues of $100. In June, the members were notified of this decision with an explanation of the need for the first revision in dues since the Foundation was organized.
The response so far has been gratifying. A number have written to ex press their belief that the increase is justified, and most of those whose annual billings have been made since the announcement of the increase have renewed. The majority of renewals occur in January--so the results of the increase are still in the realm of speculation, but our experience so far makes us optimistic that the Foundation budget can, at least, be restored to a break-even point.
A Committee is being formed under the Chairmanship of Mr. Douglas Soutar in an attempt to increase our membership. While the number of members has been fairly stable over the past four or five years, many industries who we believe could profit from Foundation membership, are either lightly represented or not represented at all.
Finally, I want to pay tribute to the various standing Committees--to the Executive Committee -- to the Board of Trustees--and to our Staff. It seems worthy to note that almost half of our Board of Trustees are participants in this two-day program. In the face of the discouraging financial developments of the past three years, the Staff people have remained loyal and eager to serve this membership to the best of their ability.
This Foundation still faces some serious problems which must be dealt with if it is to continue. Financial stability is, of course, the key -- and I do believe that we can look forward to achieving that during 1966. "
In the absence of the Treasurer, Professor Theodore F. Hatch, the Chairman next presented the Financial Statement (see page 5).

Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
Mr. Davison next called on Dr. Robert T. P. deTreville for the Managing Director's report.
Dr. deTreville reported that the year 1965 had been a critical one for the Industrial Hygiene Foundation, and out of the experiences of the past year have.been developed an improved communication of the Foundation's mission to its members, government (including the Internal Revenue Service which has recently audited-the Foundation as a nonprofit research association), to univer sities, to private institutions, professional and technical associations, and lastly, but certainly not least in importance, to industrial associations and foundations.
From such improved communication has come increased interest on the part of the Foundation's membership in research programs in the Foundation's laboratory, in research and educational programs within the membership (a pilot plant for field studies), and in greater cooperation in research between the Foun dation, universities, institutions, and other research agencies, including govern ment.
As a result, there have been more concerted efforts during this period on the part of Foundation Trustees and other representatives of the Foundation's membership to raise funds for research and educational programs in a number of important areas. Examples of these programs are given in the Foundation's new membership information booklet, extra copies of which are available for purposes of helping extend membership in the Foundation.
Dr. deTreville indicated that he had requested that details of progress in several important areas be reported later in the meeting by Chairmen of Founda tion Committees. He, therefore, limited his remarks to the following status re V port on the Foundation's Emphysema Research Program.
The Foundation's research laboratory was launched into emphysema re search early in 1964 as a result of serendipitous observations made during an investigation of the effects of enzymes upon developing silicotic nodules. By in jecting papain, an enzyme, directly into the trachea of rats it was possible to pro duce widespread emphysema of the lungs of the centrilobular and panlobular type associated with severe respiratory impairment in man. This destruction of functional lung tissue is produced rapidly with a high degree of reliability and reproducibilityjand Dr. Paul Gross, Director of the Foundation's Research Labora tory, plans to use this new experimental technique as a laboratory model for the study of emphysema. In 1966-67, he will expose several animal species to sever industrial materials, subjecting them to extreme exposure conditions but without shortening the normal life span. Following this exposure, Dr. Gross will produc a measured amount of emphysema in these and in control animals to determine if the exposure had any observable effects in predisposing the animals to emphyserr tous lung destruction. Conversely, Dr. Gross expects to produce emphysematou animals initially and expose them to a variety of materials to determine in serial sacrificed animals, whether any observable aggravation will occur.
Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
Mr. Davison asked Dr. deTreville to describe the present status of financial support of the Emphysema Research Program.
Dr. deTreville indicated that expressions of interest had been received from several industrial associations which had been invited to a research planning meeting during the summer and from most recent reports, it appears that prob ability of financial support is reasonably good in the cases of the Automobile Manu facturers Association, American Petroleum Institute, American Iron and Steel Institute, and Manufacturing Chemists' Association. Word is being awaited from the National Coal Association and American Gas Association, but we have no pre sent indication of degree of interest in the Foundation's project. The National Association of Manufacturers expressed interest but advised that it has never undertaken such research support and is not able to do so in this instance. As a result of discussions following the summer Emphysema Research Planning Meeting, proposals to share in the sponsorship of this research have been extended to the Aerospace and Pulp and Paper industries; both report that they have referred the matter for study, but as yet, no further word has been received. As a result of Buggestions made by the American Petroleum Institute and Manufacturing Chemists' Association, Dr. Gross has modified his protocol to include industrial materials of special interest not originally included.
The total cost of the two-year research project is $120,000 or $60,000 per year, and industrial associations acting as sponsors are being asked to share equally at an estimated cost of $10, 000 per year. From early indications it is believed that this amount, and the spreading of the expense over a broad base in industry are likely to receive favorable consideration. By such an arrangement, an industrial association can, for $10, 000 per year, help produce $120, 000 of research results of timely value to its members, procuring for them all benefits of sponsorship, including participation in the design of the experiment, for ex ample, as mentioned.
In spite of the Foundation's best efforts, however, probability of full support by January 1, 1966 is still only about 50%. Work cannot begin until assurance of adequate support is received, so an attempt is being made to ex pedite commitments from sponsors. Because of the importance of the results of Dr. Gross' work to industry, Dr. deTreville indicated that he is making every effort to develop full support from non-governmental sources.
(Addendum: At a meeting of the Foundation's Board of Trustees on December 30, 1965, in view of receipt of firm commitments from the American Iron and Steel Institute, American Petroleum Institute, Automobile Manufacturers Association, and Manufacturing Chemists' Association, the decision was made, (and later approved by the full Board by mail), that Dr. Gross should-proceed with his research on emphysema without awaiting full sponsorship of the project. Based upon advanced dues payments for 1966 prior to the end of the year, it ap pears that the budget will break even in 1966, even if no further support of the Emphysema Research Program is received. From preliminary discussions, however, it appears that at least $50, 000 and possibly the full $60, 000 will be forthcoming later in the year. If such additional support materializes, the budget will show a healthy swing into the black for the first time in four years. )
Meeting o Members, October 2 0, 1965
Committee Reports
Chemical-Toxicological
Dr. Emil A. Pfitzer next gave the report of the Chemical-Toxicological Committee in the absence of its Chairman, Dr. Joseph F. Treon. He reported that the Chemical-Toxicological Committee met last spring in Williamsburg, Virginia at the Society of Toxicology Meeting to discuss the Industrial Hygiene Foundation's Annual Meeting Program and to outline Committee activities.
The Committee has published two Bulletins this year in the ChemicalToxicological series. The first was entitled: "Threshold Limit Values (Recom mended Revisions and Additions)". Threshold Limit Values are set annually by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. For the past two years, a statement of intent of revisions and additions to the Threshold Limit Value list has been distributed several months prior to decision on their recom mendation. The Chemical-Toxicological Committee has attempted to communi cate this statement of intent, so that Industrial Hygiene Foundation members may contribute their viewpoints to the Threshold Limit Values Committee prior to their final decisions. The second Bulletin was entitled: "Emergency Exposure Limits and Hygienic Guides--Sources of Information". The Toxicology Com mittee of the American Industrial Hygiene Association has presented the first three of a new series of guides called Emergency Exposure Limits and the Hygienic Guides have been published at intervals by the American Industrial Hygiene Assoc iation Hygienic Guides Committee. This Bulletin has updated these sources of information and provides a handy reference to publication dates for individual chemicals. The Bulletin also provides the format to be used for information which Industrial Hygiene Foundation members may wish to submit to the Hygienic Guides Committee.
The Chemical-Toxicological Committee has tentatively scheduled a Discussional for sometime early in 1966. The purpose will be to provide a forum for the early discussion of the statement of intent of revisions in the Threshold Limit Value list during 1966. The Foundation's membership representatives who participate will receive early notification of impending changes in standards which may markedly affect their operations and publications.
The Chemical-Toxicological Committee has encouraged and will assist
with the publication of toxicologic data on over 50 chemicals which have been
collected in the Foundation's Research Laboratory. Staff members of Industrial
Hygiene Foundation will author such a report following approval of individual IHF
members for release of data for publication.

The Engineering Committee Chairman, Dr. Eester V. Cralley, reported that the main project of the Engineering Committee during 1965 has been the Second Engineering Discussional which is scheduled for January, 1966. The success |of the First Discussional makes it clear that this will now be an annual event. One of the unique features of the 1966 Discussional will be a session in which the opportunity will be provided for those in attendance to present specific problems for discussion as an open forum to see whether others may have simi lar problems and, if so, their approach to a solution. Other subjects on the program will include the engineering control of oil mists and hazards relating to the electromagnetic . spectrum.

Distinguished authorities led discussions on sick absence, group health insurance data processing of industrial health information, setting of threshold limit values, effects of carbon monoxide exposure at certain levels (steel manufacturing) and carbon monoxide research (automobile manufacturing). This Discussional has provided the Foundation's staff with guidance in planning future symposia and re search in the interest of the membership.
Other Medical Committee programs under consideration include improved development of small plant medical services, through a system of Industrial Hy giene Foundation consultants; recruitment, training and placement of physician candidates for careers in occupational health in industry and epidemiological studies industry-wide.

Meeting of Members, October 20, 1965
Nursing
Mrs. AdeLe C. Miller, Chairman of the Nursing Committee, reported that at the last meeting of the membership, Mrs. Jean Gray of the U.S. Public Health Service, Division of Occupational Health, indicated that the Foundation's experimental course entitled: "Employee Mental Health and Industrial Nursing Practices", which had begun in June, 1964 would end the following day, i.e. , the 22nd of October. Mrs. Gray was the Course Director and it was with considerable enthusiasm that she described the progress of this program, sponsored by the newly-formed Foundation's Nursing Committee.
Mrs. Miller announced that in the period since then, there has been no diminution in the Foundation's activities in this area. On April 8, 1965, at the American Industrial Health Conference in Miami, at the Nursing Committee breakfast attended by representatives of the Industrial Medical Association and American Association of Industrial Nurses Boards of Directors, a report of the experimental course was presented as a means of aiding professional liaison. Now available as Industrial Hygiene Foundation's Nursing Bulletin No. 1, this report was written by Mr. Harris H. Shettel, Assistant Program Director, American Institute for Research, with the assistance of the Foundation's Nursing Committee. A measure of the course's effectiveness is presented with suggestions for future improvements. Based in large measure on the Foundation's 1964 ex perience , the Foundation proposed to undertake a 5-year training program. Several icompanies in the Foundation's membership will serve as a pilot plant in which to develop a system of continuing education for occupational health per sonnel in employee mental health. The educational tools developed should benefit all industrial employees. Industrial management and medical directors have shown great interest in obtaining better assistance in this pressing health prob lem from the Occupational Medical Service representative who is most accessible to the troubled employee, the Occupational Health Nurse. If all goes well, the Foundation hopes to be able to announce initiation of a program, under a National Institutes of Mental Health Training grant at the next meeting. The Nursing Com mittee is extremely gratified by the Foundation's progress to date and will continue to offer whatever assistance and guidance possible to insure the success of the program and the applicability of its results in the practical situation in industry.

New facts about air pollu tion. which may help in plan ning home building and urban renewal projects, were re ported by a University of Pittsburgh scientist at a con ference on industrial hygiene here yesterday.
At the meeting a New York Industrial physician charged that new materials are being
used in plastics and other goods without proper check-1 ing as to their effects on peo ple's health.
The Pitt scientist, Dr. Mor ton Com. reported on a 27ycar study of sulphur dioxide contamination in Beaver Coun ty considered similar in many ways to other parts of the Pittsburgh area.

Dr. Com. an associate pm. lessor of air pollution at Pin spoke at the 26th annual ] dustrial Hygiene Foundation meeting at Mellon Institute.
In another talk Dr. Km neth W. Smith, medical diree tor at the Johns-Manvifl, Corp., called for more tsitt tive checking on the health hazards of new material.
Some materials, he salt should be checked ntnr closely before workers an permitted close contact with them.
But others, he said, haw been found "guilty by assodation" without having recetvid proper scientific evaluatoa.

He rates an executive on ten qualifications, assigning 1 point for each. You're "good," he soys, if you score 7 or more points.
i^ws^
GREATER PITTSBURGH
October 1965
1. Judgment--Without it, other qualifications ore of little im portance. It causes a man to do the "right" thing in "vogue oreos" of professional and private life "where there ore no facts, rules, or policies to guide him."
2. Technical Knowhow--Those who lock it succeed only when other attributes outweigh a good technical foundation.
3. Financial Acumen--Measure it by operating your company profitab` ly during on economi'c downturn. You get no points for doing well when everyone else does
4. Consideration For Other -Everyone above ond below you wants recognition of his status os o- hI uman being ond os a valuable member of the company. He's entitled to respect, dignity, ond op portunity.
5. Courage--Your quality shows in Ttimimee oojf sstirreesus. uCoouurag^ie to withstand adveprty will earn the res.peoct off youi r fellow workmen
6. Loyalty--You can't buy it. You get it only by giving it. The good executive is true to himself, hrs anociatei, his employer, and his country.
7. Attitude--There's a simple logic in making work a pleasure: You want to spend most of your daily life as enjoyably and usefully os possible. A cheerful attitude will help motivate your associates to do their best.
a. Gooooond Wwiirfe--Sonhe's on imponrtonrt part of the management team because she usuolly has great* .in'"filiu.--ence on her husbboanncd. If she mokes him hoppy, she contributes to his efficiency on the job.
9. Luck--It's always welcome but seldom occidental. It usually teflects careful planning to take advantage of ony favoroble op portunity.
10. Good Health--Its importance emphasizes the values of pre ventive medicine, early warnings through periodic physicals, and the safeguards of company medical programs.
