G? O SEOHE3A-PAC3F3C i NTE RDEPARTMENTAL COMMUNICATION TO: Mr. E. L. Assen r =?C. J. 3. i'oss S !J B ASBESTOS CAUTION LABEL date.LOCATION: LOCATION: April 23, 1973 Portland W i ! m i ngton PLAINTIFF'S EXHIBIT GP-1989 Confirming our discussion, you will determine the size and color of the caution label to be placed on joint compounds containing asbestos, and inform Akron and Marietta of the approximate cost of the 3be I s. With this information, the plants will be able to determine nether the labels are more economical, or if they should use a stamp. in view of the need for a carload of bags about every two or three months, we should probably take a look at having this "caution11 printed on bags. You would realize that STamping or labeling would result in an operation slow down or the addition of an extra man, either of which would increase our cost. Should the conversion to non-asbestos compounds require more or less than a year, we could probably limit labeling or stamping to existing bags, plus perhaps the last shipment before conversion is total. Presumably, if Mr. Richards elects to include Chicago in this handling, we wouId be able to obtain a better price for labels. ~\ JBM:pjr a J. B. M. l\ cc: Messrs. E. B. Hollingsworth - Wilmington T.
