blame on tree3.
'
liy answer to the problem is: if you have enjoyed a good life
while working with asbestos products why not die from it. There' got to be seme cause.

Dear Ernie:

Thank you for the article on Asbestos from Chemical Week; yours.was the 101st
copy I received. However, I had not seen the lone on "Trees" and this latter
calmed my nerves.

I suppose we have to bear with people who have nothing better to do than create alarm, but we are not alarmed and we live and sleep with the stuff. '
You will be interested to know that Chemical Week will print a retraction of the article and the U.S. Public Health Service is mad because they have been misquoted. Representative Robert Watkins claims he needs the votes and asbestos was a handly vehicle.
Anyway good health and best wishes.
..
Yours sincerely.
