J'1 Dear Harr7, LABELLING.- Mo doubt you vill recall hov long it tooi ~11 the member of the AIA to a1ree on 1. a logo, 2. a suitable text to be placed at the bottom of the label. Members were left a certain liberty, th011gh they were urged not to mention on the label the risk of cancer but only to say that an incorrect use of the product could be harmful to health. Ju1t a1 an example, let me aention that the label adopted in the USA for cigarette does not mention the ri1k of cancer, though It is univer1ally known that one of the aain cause of lung cancer i1 due .to o~ing. b. the product liability ia much aeverer in the State than anywhere elae. dl" From the above you vill underatand hov disappointed I vaa to aee that on her a1be1to1 bag1 0 Turner clearly aentiooa that "breathina a1be1toa duat aay cauae cancer and other fatal Tbi1 could have aa conaequence that the !!C would decide either to adopt the label aa it i1 1 either to encoura1e a'1kull and cro11ed bonea label, or aome other carcinoaenic 1010 still to be created I think it i1 probably too late for you to react but, if only to defend th~ position of Turner tovard1 all thoaa who criticize her rather aeverely, I would like to know the reaaon of thia deci1lon.
