To Sir Neville STACK A.I.A.
68,.Gloucester Place, GB - LONDON WIH 3HL.
Dear Sir Neville,
Re : Labelling request by European Distributor of Union Carbide Products.
I refer to your letter of October 11th, ref. AIA/8/PAC about the above mentioned case.
.This matter has now finally been settled to the satis faction of both EAC and the distributor, through the efficient assistance of Mr. Schwermer and Mr. Mohr (Switzerland).
I had asked, as you know, Mr. Schwermer to help me
locate the U.C.C. distributor, in the wrong belief that it was
:i
a German one. After all, it appeared to be a Swiss firm, which
3
explains Mr. Mohr's intervention.
i
:;L
As I do not know in how far you have been kept informed 3 by AIA/NA about this issue, I enclose a copy of my recent letter 3' to the distributor (Mr. Dambach, Grace Industrial Chemicals, Inc.,h Lausanne) which does nothing but confirm the information already ivgiven by telephone to Mr. Dambach by Mr. Schwermer and Mr. Mohr.
' _ However, if the matter can be considered as settled
:
this side of the ocean (the distributor dropped the idea of asking'!
for the St. Andrew's cross to be marked on bags shipped to EEC),
coordination of labelling initiatives seenu necessary at the
other end. The manufacturer (Calidria Asbestos, which is.
i!:
^understand, .a
of UnTon.cirbide Corp.) now intends
:
to put the'OSHA label on bags shipped to~EEt. Could not AIA/NA
obtain from Calldri* to use the EAC label instead, or, if this
is not in line with U.S. regulations, to use both labels ?
This i# of course, as I have pointed out to Mr. Dambach, a Batter which lit fully beyond EAC competence.
