The interrogatories seek information going back many years and GARLOCK has found it difficult, if not impossible, to reconstruct or retrieve much of the information requested. The answers given are thus based on the present facts known or believed by GARLOCK at the time of its answer. 2. The interrogatories are overly broad, burdensome, vague and ambiguous. In addition, the interrogatories and requests are not sufficiently limited in time and use terms which do not refer to products manufactured by GARLOCK. 3. GARLOCK does not now manufacture or sell, and has never manufactured or sold, asbestos-containing insulation products as that term is commonly used and understood in this litigation. Therefore, GARLOCK objects to any interrogatory referring to or assuming that such products are or have been manufactured by GARLOCK. GARLOCK presumes that questions referring to insulation products are thus not applicable to GARLOCK. 4. GARLOCK does not now manufacture or sell, and has never manufactured or sold, asbestos-containing building products as that term is commonly used and understood in this litigation. Therefore, GARLOCK objects to any interrogatory referring to or assuming that such products are or have been manufactured by GARLOCK. GARLOCK presumes that questions referring to building products are thus not applicable to GARLOCK. 5. The interrogatories are overly broad in that they tend to group together ail of the defendants. There has never been any competent scientific or medical evidence or reason to believe that GARLOCK products, upon reasonable use, release asbestos fibers in sufficient quantities, if any, to pose a health hazard, potential or otherwise, to persons using said products. GARLOCK denies that the use of, or exposure to, its asbestos-containing products poses any health hazard. 6. The interrogatories are duplicative of earlier requests made by Plaintiffs counsel to GARLOCK in the asbestos litigation. GARLOCK affirmatively asserts that it has answered multiple sets of interrogatories and responded to numerous requests for production propounded by Plaintiffs counsel in thousands of asbestos cases over the past 15 years. Many documents potentially responsive to these interrogatories have already been produced to Plaintiffs counsel and GARLOCK has no obligation to produce them again. Plaintiffs Exhibit List contains numerous GARLOCK documents -3- and GARLOCK will not produce additional copies of these documents, although it may refer to them in these answers to interrogatories. GARLOCK objects to these interrogatories to the extent they are duplicative and cumulative in nature. 7. GARLOCK objects to these interrogatories to the extent they relate to foreign companies that are not wholly-owned subsidiaries of GARLOCK INC and do not sell products in the United States. The activities of any such entities are not relevant to any issue in this litigation. -4- ANSWERS TO INTERROGATORIES INTERROGATORY NO. 1: State the name, address, job title, length of time employed by Defendant, and a year-by-year list of all other positions, titles or jobs held when working for Defendant of each person who has supplied any information used in answering these interrogatories. ANSWER: These interrogatory answers have been reviewed and signed by James Heffron, the current Director of Training for GARLOCK INC. Mr. Heffron has been employed by GARLOCK since 1972 and a summary of his positions and duties with GARLOCK from 1972 to the present is attached as Exhibit A. These interrogatories request detailed information regarding GARLOCK's asbestos related product line and business activities over an extended period of time. Mr. Heffron is not qualified, based on his personal knowledge and experience, to provide complete answers to these interrogatories. No present GARLOCK employee is qualified, based on his personal knowledge and experience, to provide complete answers to these interrogatories. Mr. Heffron has reviewed documentation potentially responsive to these interrogatories and he verifies these answers as true and complete based on his personal knowledge, experience and his review of said documents. The documents reviewed by Mr. Heffron in conjunction with the preparation of these interrogatory answers include: (1) previously filed discovery responses filed by GARLOCK, including answers to interrogatories and responses to requests for production of documents; (2) deposition and trial testimony previously provided by GARLOCK employees in asbestos related litigation; (3) information summarizing GARLOCK's asbestos-containing product line prepared by exGARLOCK employees; (4) Documents identified by GARLOCK as exhibits in the nationwide asbestos litigation; and (5) all documents produced by GARLOCK in Response to the Subpoena Duces Tecum issued by Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation, Civil Action No. 1998 CV 02684. Mr. Heffron has also spoken with ex-employees of GARLOCK who provided information relied upon by GARLOCK in previously filed answers to interrogatories. Those individuals are Clay Jewett, formerly employed as GARLOCK's Manager of Marketing and Roy Whittaker, formerly employed by GARLOCK in numerous -5- capacities, including Director of Engineering. Mr. Heffron also obtained information regarding GARLOCK's international operations from Gilles Vallee, Vice President of Garlock of Canada, Ltd. and Felipe Mues of Garlock de Mexico. INTERROGATORY NO. 2: State whether or not you are a corporation. If so, state your correct corporate name, the state of your incorporation, the address of your principal place of business, the name and address of the person or entity authorized to accept service of process on your behalf, and whether or not you have ever held a Certificate of Authority to do business in the State of Texas. ANSWER: Defendant's legal name is GARLOCK INC (no punctuation). GARLOCK INC is an Ohio corporation with offices located at 3 Coliseum Centre, 2550 WestTyvola Rd., Charlotte, NC 28217, and a principal manufacturing facility and sales office at 1666 Division Street, Palmyra, New York 14522. The GARLOCK Packing Company was originally incorporated in New York on March 27, 1905. On April 25, 1960, the name was changed to GARLOCK INC. On March 3, 1975, a Delaware corporation of the same name was incorporated and on May 12, 1975, the New York corporation was merged into the Delaware corporation. On November 25,1975, Colt Industries Inc of Ohio was incorporated in the state of Ohio and on January 28, 1976, GARLOCK INC was merged into Colt Industries Inc of Ohio which immediately changed its name to GARLOCK INC. CT Corporation System is the entity authorized to accept service of process on behalf of GARLOCK. GARLOCK does hold a Certificate of Authority to do business in the State of Texas. INTERROGATORY NO. 3: Has defendant or any of its predecessors or subsidiary companies at any time -6- engaged in the mining and subsequent sale of material containing asbestos fibers? If so, identify the location of the mine(s), the years of its operation, the type of asbestos mined and whether you sold any asbestos to any Defendants in the Cameron County asbestos litigation. ANSWER: No. INTERROGATORY NO. 4: Identify by name each product containing asbestos fibers that Defendant or any of its predecessor or subsidiary companies at any time manufactured or sold. ANSWER: A summary list of GARLOCK's asbestos-containing product line is attached to these answers to interrogatories as Exhibit B. The list identifies each product by style number, product category, the type of asbestos fiber used in the product, the percentage of asbestos in the product, the non-asbestos binder in the product and the year GARLOCK stopped manufacturing the product. If GARLOCK continues to manufacture the product, that fact is noted on the list as well. In addition to the products identified in Exhibit B, GARLOCK INC. manufactured and sold a limited line of asbestos textile products (cloth and yarn) in limited quantities to manufacturers of braided asbestos packing products. In addition to the products identified in Exhibit B, GARLOCK also acquired four subsidiary companies which made or sold some asbestos-containing products. GARLOCK does not have a comprehensive list of the products or manufactured or sold by these companies. These companies are the Belmont Packing and Rubber Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the Crandall Packing Company and Dealer's Steam Packing Company located in Palmyra, New York and the U.S. Gasket Company located in Camden, New Jersey. Each of these companies, prior to the purchase by GARLOCK, sold asbestos-containing gaskets and packing products substantially similar to the GARLOCK asbestoscontaining products identified in Exhibit B. Each of the above- -7- named entities was merged with GARLOCK and GARLOCK assumed all assets and liabilities. GARLOCK preserved the Belmont trademark and continued to sell products under that label. GARLOCK also purchased the assets of the Anchor Packing Company in June, 1987. An Anchor Packing catalog for that time period which identifies the asbestos products sold by Anchor at that time is attached as Exhibit C. GARLOCK did not assume the liabilities of The Anchor Packing Company. The GARLOCK/Anchor acquisition agreement has already been produced to Plaintiffs counsel. INTERROGATORY NO. 5: Identify by name each product containing asbestos fibers that Defendant or any of its predecessor or subsidiary companies at any time marketed or sold. ANSWER: See Answer to Interrogatory No. 4. INTERROGATORY NO. 6: If the answer to one or more of the last three interrogatories is in the affirmative or lists any products, state as to each named product the following: (a) As to each product, state whether such product was mined, manufactured, marketed and/or sold. (b) The names of the companies mining, manufacturing, marketing and/or selling each product mined, manufactured, marketed and/or sold. (c) The trade or brand name of each of those products mined, manufactured, marketed and/or sold. (d) The date each of the named products was placed on the market. (e) A description of the physical (chemical) compositions of each of the -8- named products, including the type of asbestos contained in the product and the percentage of asbestos put in each product. The date each of the products was removed from the market and no longer sold or distributed and the reason or reasons therefor. The date asbestos was removed from such products, if ever, and the reasons therefor. A description of the physical appearance of each of the named products. A detailed description of the intended uses of the named products. Identify the last year that you sold each asbestos-containing product. GARLOCK states that it has and does make a wide variety of products, many of which have contained asbestos and many of which have contained no asbestos. Among the specific products which GARLOCK has and does manufacture are asbestos gasket and asbestos sheet (from which the purchaser cuts gaskets). GARLOCK asbestos sheet is a mixture of asbestos fibers, curing agents, reinforcing fillers and elastomers (natural rubber or synthetic polymers having the elastic qualities of rubber). Asbestos fibers are machine blended with the rest of the mixture until they are thoroughly coated. The entire compound is then heated and rolled into sheets and is continually compressed to form a tough, impermeable, homogeneous material that resembles linoleum. Other gasket materials were made from woven, long fiber, asbestos yarn impregnated and encased in a rubberized coating. Other gaskets have had asbestos encased by layers of metal or encapsulated with a P.T.F.E. (polytetrafluoroethylene) resin envelope. GARLOCK asbestos packing materials consisted of woven asbestos encapsulated in either elastomeric compounds or metal foils and/or impregnated with lubricants. GARLOCK gasket materials are primarily used for static sealing of steam line flanges, cylinder heads of engines, compressors and refrigeration equipment, fluid conduits, etc. GARLOCK packing materials are primarily used for dynamic sealing of machinery. Finished compressed asbestos sheet is either cut into gaskets by GARLOCK or sold for use by others in cutting gaskets. GARLOCK's flexible and durable gasketing material is handled, installed and removed in all intended applications without releasing meaningful quantities, if any, of asbestos fibers into the air. GARLOCK's compressed asbestos sheets and gaskets are treated with an anti-stick releasing agent which reduces any tendency of the gaskets to adhere to pipe flanges during removal and replacement. This anti-stick agent facilitates the removal of old gaskets without generating dust. Other GARLOCK products come in specific sizes for application and do not generally require modification before or during application or use. GARLOCK states that from 95% to 98% of its asbestos-containing products have been made only with chrysotile asbestos fibers and that the remaining 2% to 5% of such products were made with crocidolite asbestos fibers. Depending upon the type of product involved, the percentage of asbestos contained in these products has ranged from about 10% to about 85%. This Defendant has never mined, supplied, distributed, marketed and/or sold raw asbestos fibers to others. (a) GARLOCK manufactured, marketed and sold the asbestoscontaining products identified in Exhibit B. (b) GARLOCK INC; see Answer to Interrogatory No. 4. (c) See Exhibit B attached to these Answers to Interrogatories. (d) The exact date each product identified in Exhibit B was placed in the stream of commerce is unknown. Asbestos compression sheet material became generally available in the early 1900's. Asbestos-containing packing products became available in 1907. GARLOCK has previously produced product catalogs to Baron & Budd and those catalogs accurately describe the asbestos products available for sale in particular time periods. GARLOCK attaches as Exhibit D its Response to Plaintiffs Subpoena Duces Tecum in the Fulton County Asbestos Litigation, Civil Action No. 1998 CV 02684; paragraphs 2 and 3 of said response identify the relevant GARLOCK catalogs produced to Baron & Budd. GARLOCK incorporates that response in relation to Interrogatory No. 6(d) here. Actual copies of all catalogs and advertising materials identified in GARLOCK's response to said Subpoena Duces Tecum were produced to Baron & Budd in the Georgia asbestos litigation in 1999. (e) See Exhibit B and all product related documents and catalogs previously produced to Baron & Budd in the Fulton -10- County, Georgia asbestos litigation. (f) The date each asbestos product was removed from the market is identified in Exhibit B. Asbestos products were removed from GARLOCK's product line when suitable new products with superior performance capabilities became available. The development of non-asbestos substitutes for certain fluid sealing devices was dependent on the engineering of new materials, extensive functional and performance testing and ultimately the customers willingness to use these materials for applications that historically had required asbestos products. (g) See Answer to 6(f). (h) See all product information, catalogs, advertising materials and photographs previously produced to Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation. (i) See all product information, catalogs and advertising materials previously produced to Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation. (j) See Exhibit B. INTERROGATORY NO. 7: Do any documents, including but not limited to written memoranda, specifications, recommendations, blueprints, or other written materials of any kind or character, relating to the design, preparation, or introduction into the market of the products listed in Interrogatory No. 6 still exist? If so, state: (a) A description of each such document. (b) The name, address and job title of each person who currently has possession of each document, and where the documents are currently located. ANSWER: Yes. -11 - (a) The product information, catalogs and advertising materials previously produced to Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation relate to the asbestos products listed in Exhibit B and their introduction into the market. Any other documents potentially responsive to this interrogatory are located at the GARLOCK record retention facility in Palmyra, New York and a warehouse in Rochester, New York. The Rochester warehouse holds documents retained by GARLOCK per its Record Retention policies and copies of said policies were previously provided to Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation. GARLOCK will provide access to the records located in the Rochester warehouse and the Palmyra facility at a mutually convenient date, time and place. (b) Paul Grant; Garrison Litigation Management Group, Ltd., One HSBC Plaza, Suite 1830, Rochester, New York 14604 2415. See Answer to Interrogatory No. 7(a). INTERROGATORY NO. 8: Before distributing, selling or placing the products listed in your responses to Interrogatory Nos. 3-6 into the streams of commerce, were any tests conducted to determine potential health hazards involved in the use of, or exposure to, the materials such as asbestos contained in those products? If the answer is affirmative, state: (a) The names of the products tested and the date of each test. (b) The name, address, and job title of each person conducting the tests or involved with conducting the tests. (c) The results of the tests. -12- ANSWER: Yes. (a) - (c) At various times. GARLOCK has retained independent industrial hygienists to test its products for potential fiber release in a wide variety of occupational settings and situations. The industrial hygienists generated reports from those tests and those reports are included in GARLOCK's Exhibit Binders which have been previously produced to Baron & Budd. A copy of GARLOCK's Exhibit List is attached as Exhibit E and GARLOCK refers to the following exhibits as being responsive to this interrogatory. Name/Hvaienist Garlock Exhibit Numbers 1. Nielsen 2.

(c) The results of those tests. . (d) Whether, as a result of the tests, any products were removed from the market. (e) The names of all products removed from the market as a result of these tests. -14- ANSWER: See Answer to Interrogatory No. 8 INTERROGATORY NO. 12: Do any documents, including written memoranda, specifications, recommendations, blueprints or other written materials of any kind or character, relating to the potential health hazards of the products listed in Interrogatory No. 6 now exist? If so, state: (a) The name of each product. (b) A description of each document and how it relates to each product. (c) The name, address and job title of each person who currently has possession of each document, and where it is presently located. ANSWER: (a) - (c) GARLOCK does not possess any medical or scientific documents which relate or associate any potential health hazard to the use of the asbestos-containing gasket and packing products identified in Exhibit B. GARLOCK did prepare Material Safety Data Sheets for certain of its asbestos-containing products and copies of those documents are attached to these Answers to Interrogatories as Exhibit F. GARLOCK possesses copies of the various OSHA and EPA regulations regarding the potential hazards associated with asbestos exposure. Actual copies of those regulations are contained in GARLOCK's Exhibit Binders as Nos. 1-9. INTERROGATORY NO. 13: Did Defendant or any of its subsidiary companies make any design changes as a result of the tests discussed in your response to Interrogatories No. 10 or 13? If the answer is affirmative, state: (a) The names of the products changed or modified. (b) The name, address and job title of each person responsible for -15- having made a change or modification.

(g) The current location of any such printed material and the custodian thereof. (h) The form in which such literature or printed material can be accessed, i.e., the manner in which such literature is indexed or stored. -16- ANSWER: Yes. (a) Caution labels were placed on all of the asbestos products identified in Exhibit B in 1977 (assuming the individual product was still being manufactured by GARLOCK at that time). GARLOCK placed a caution label on its limited line of asbestos textile products (cloth and yarn) in 1972. (b) The caution label stated, "CAUTION: Contains asbestos fibers. Avoid creating dust. Breathing asbestos dust may cause serious bodily harm." This is the caution label language established by OSHA, Section 1910.1001, par. .2(ii), GARLOCK placed this label on its products in 1977, although gaskets and packings are exempt from the OSHA caution label requirement. (c) A similar caution and warning notice has been contained in GARLOCK's product literature and catalogs since 1977. (d) The caution label was placed on the product packaging and the product itself. (e) August, 1977; For textile products, (cloth and yarn) 1972. (f) The decision to place a caution label on GARLOCK's asbestos-containing products was a consensus decision made by GARLOCK management in 1977. Management personnel involved included John Guffey (Compressor Packing Division), Alexander Kuzmuk (Construction Products), Gordon LeRoy (Engineering), Mike Panarites (Personnel), Herb Schaefer (MRD Operations) and Ron Stay (Marketing). The decision to place a caution label on textile products in 1972 was made by Alexander Kuzmuk. None of these individuals are currently employed by GARLOCK. (g) Caution labels samples have been previously produced to Baron & Budd. (h) Not applicable. -17- INTERROGATORY NO. 15: Before 1970, had you received notice that any individual or individuals, other than those Plaintiffs who have filed personal injury actions in Texas State Courts is or are claiming or has or have claimed an injury as a result of using asbestos products manufactured and/or sold by your company or any of its predecessors or subsidiaries before 1970? If so, state: (a) The name and address of each claimant. (b) The date of notice of each claim. (c) A description of the claim. (d) The type of injuries allegedly sustained. (e) The name and address of each attorney who represents each individual making a claim. (f) The style and court number of each claim. (g) The disposition of each claim that has been settled or taken to judgment. ANSWER: GARLOCK had no personal injury claims alleging asbestos related disease or injury based on product handling or usage prior to 1970. INTERROGATORY NO. 16: Were your asbestos products distributed, marketed, packaged, labeled and/or sold by companies other than your own? If the answer is affirmative, list the names and addresses of each of those companies, and the products in question. -18- ANSWER: Yes. Most of GARLOCK's product sales were made on a direct basis until the mid-1960's At that time, GARLOCK management made the decision to utilize distributors for sales to maintenance and repair customers and after a conversion period of several years, the majority of GARLOCK product sales have been made through distributors. A recent listing of GARLOCK distributors is attached as Exhibit G. A list of GARLOCK distributors for Texas, the territory relevant to this litigation, is attached as Exhibit H. Any sales records relating to GARLOCK's product sales prior to 1978, no longer exist. Post 1978 sales records are available for inspection and copying at a mutually convenient date and time. These records are currently located in the Rochester warehouse described above. GARLOCK can also perform microfiche searches of product sales to particular customers or distributors. INTERROGATORY NO. 17: Did you or any of your predecessors, successors or subsidiaries have any distributors or sales representatives of asbestos products in the States of Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Oregon, Washington, Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas and Virginia? If so, state: (a) The name and address of each such distributor or sales representatives. (b) The years in which such company or person distributed, marketed or sold your products. (c) What products were distributed, marketed or sold and in what years. ANSWER: Objection. GARLOCK's sales activities in these states are irrelevant to any asbestos litigation pending in Texas. Without waiving said objection, GARLOCK answers yes and refers to Answer to Interrogatory No. 16. -19- INTERROGATORY NO. 18: List each employee (including only physicians and/or hygienists) who has acted in a medical advisory capacity to your company at any time during the past 40 years, including, but not limited to, physicians and industrial hygienists, and the current address, telephone number and job title of each of those individuals and who has, had or may have had any knowledge regarding the hazards of asbestos. ANSWER: GARLOCK has not employed, retained or otherwise engaged physicians, industrial hygienists or others to conduct medical research. GARLOCK has had part-time plant physicians since 1920. They are as follows: Name Dates of Service Dr. C. C. Nesbitt (deceased) 8/30/20 - 8/1/56 Dr. J. D. Bramer (deceased) 8/1/56 - 7/24/72 Dr. K. K.

INTERROGATORY NO. 19: Does Defendant have in its possession any books, pamphlets, memoranda, or written material of any kind or character that would indicate that asbestos fibers, when inhaled, can be hazardous to the health of human beings? If so, state: (a) The name of each such publication. (b) The date of publication and the names of the author and publisher (if any). (c) The date received by Defendant, if known. (d) The name, job title, and address of each person who currently has possession of each publication and its present location. ANSWER: Yes (a) - (d) GARLOCK is not aware of any competent scientific, medical, industrial hygiene or epidemiological studies which establish a causal relationship between the use of or exposure to asbestos-containing gaskets and packing products and any asbestos related diseases. GARLOCK has become aware of the potential hazards of excessive asbestos exposure from the following sources: 1. GARLOCK received copies of the Hemeon Report prepared by the Industrial Hygiene Foundation for the members of the Asbestos Textile Institute in June 1947. A copy of this report has already been produced to Baron & Budd. -21 - 2. GARLOCK has received copies of the OSHA and EPA regulations at or near the time they were published by those agencies. These government regulations are listed in Exhibit G. 3. GARLOCK may have received minutes of the Asbestos Textile Institute Meeting of March 7, 1956. The minutes show that George Houghton a GARLOCK employee, attended the meeting as a guest. Baron & Budd possesses copies of Mr. Houghton's deposition testimony regarding his participation and attendance at that meeting. 4. GARLOCK may have received minutes from the Asbestos Information Association Meeting of December 6,1973 and June 10,1976. Said minutes have previously been provided to Baron & Budd. 5. GARLOCK has also received worker's compensation claims from textile plant employees alleging asbestos disease caused by exposure to raw asbestos fibers used at that facility. All documents regarding those worker's compensation claims has previously been provided to Baron & Budd. 6. GARLOCK, throughout the course of the asbestos litigation, has become aware of medical and scientific literature which relates certain diseases to excessive occupational exposure to asbestos fibers. INTERROGATORY NO. 20: Has Defendant or any of its subsidiaries or predecessor companies at any time been a member of any trade organization or association that published or disseminated any documents or information relating to the hazards of asbestos comprised of other manufacturers, miners, marketers, and/or sellers of asbestos products?

(g) The date on which you first received knowledge or information that asbestosis was caused by inhalation of asbestos fibers. ANSWER: (a) George Houghton, ex-employee of GARLOCK may have learned that the disease asbestosis was related to excessive exposure to asbestos fibers through his participation in ATI meetings in the late 1940's. Mr. Houghton has previously been deposed regarding those activities and Baron & Budd is in possession of those transcripts. Vera Clemons, an employee in the GARLOCK textile plant in Palmyra, New York filed a worker's compensation claim in 1947 alleging that she had contracted asbestosis from occupational exposure to raw asbestos fibers used at the textile plant. GARLOCK has never received any information relating asbestosis to exposure to asbestos-containing gaskets and packings. The Industrial Hygiene Foundation generated the Hemeon Report in June, 1947 and that report relates to a -30- survey of dust levels in various textile plants, including GARLOCK. The report refers to asbestosis and Baron & Budd is already in possession of this report. (d) See Houghton's transcripts already in the possession of Baron & Budd. GARLOCK established a dust control and ventilation program in its textile plant. GARLOCK also made changes in its textile plant manufacturing methods to control the level of dust in the plant. These measures included; installing hoods over carding machines, installing exhaust fans, refining to the vacuum system, installing spinning frames, designing and installing dust hoods for looms and collecting cyclones with outdoor exhausts. Oral warnings regarding the avoidance of dust and instructions regarding housekeeping have been given to GARLOCK employees at the GARLOCK manufacturing plants for over 50 years. Respirators have been available and their use encouraged in dusty areas for over 50 years. (e) See Answer to Interrogatory 25(a) through 25(d). (f) All such information is already in possession of Baron & Budd. The historical information regarding GARLOCK's membership in the ATI is in the possession of Garrison Litigation Management and has been produced to Baron & Budd. (g) See Answer to Interrogatory No. 25(a). INTERROGATORY NO. 26: As to the disease lung cancer, state: (a) The date on which Defendant or its subsidiary or predecessor first learned that such disease was caused by inhalation of asbestos fibers by humans.

(e) Whether any such information is still maintained by Defendant or its subsidiary or predecessor in written form. (f) Who is the custodian of such information. (g) The date on which you first received knowledge or information that lung cancer was caused by inhalation of asbestos dust and fibers. ANSWER: (a) GARLOCK first learned that excessive exposure to asbestos fibers was viewed by the medical and scientific community as a possible cause or contributor to lung cancer through the OSHA regulations and public media reports in the early 1970's. George Houghton, a former GARLOCK employee, is listed as a guest at a 1956 ATI meeting and minutes of said meeting refer to asbestos exposure and lung cancer. We refer to Mr. Houghton's deposition testimony already in the possession of Baron & Budd for details regarding that meeting. (b) Media reports and the OSHA regulations (c) Unknown. (d) Warning labels and signs advising workers of the hazards of inhaling asbestos fibers were placed at GARLOCK plant entrances in the early 1970's per the OSHA regulations. With regard to the compressed asbestos sheet manufacturing operation in Palmyra, New York in 1977, GARLOCK purchased the following equipment: An enclosed automatic bag opener and emptier, an enclosed fluffing device, an enclosed conveyor apparatus for transferring asbestos to appropriate mixers and blenders and associated dust collection equipment. Respirators became mandatory for all employees working in dusty areas - in the early 1970's as did the wearing of disposable and cloth overalls. (e) GARLOCK INC.

INTERROGATORY NO. 30: Does Defendant contend that asbestos products can be manufactured or designed so as to eliminate all potential health hazards to persons working with or exposed to them? If the answer is affirmative, explain, in detail, and attach any studies or surveys on which this answer is based. ANSWER: Yes. (As to asbestos-containing encapsulated gasket and packing products) GARLOCK has not been made aware of any competent scientific, medical, industrial hygiene or epidemiological studies which establish a causal relationship between the use of or exposure to asbestos-containing gaskets and packing products and any asbestos related disease. The manufacturing process encapsulates the asbestos fibers within the gasket and packing products and fiber release studies conducted by certified industrial hygienists, measuring exposure levels in a wide variety of occupational settings, show de minimus or trivial fiber release from the products. All of those studies are contained in GARLOCK's exhibit binders and we specifically identify Exhibits 15 -126 as the relevant fiber release studies. All scientifically credible industrial hygiene fiber release studies show exposure levels well below the historical and current OSHA permissible exposure levels. OSHA does not require caution labels on gasket and packing products -36- and gasket and packing products are exempt from the Environmental Protection Agency's ban on asbestos products. See GARLOCK Exhibits 1 - 9. INTERROGATORY NO. 31: Describe in detail the types of packages or packaging which Defendant or any of its subsidiary or predecessor companies used for asbestos material or products, listing the dates each type of package was used, a physical description of each type of package, and providing a description of any printed material or trademarks that appeared thereon. ANSWER: GARLOCK states that it does not have records which would show when it started and/or stopped using any particular type or style of packaging. For at least 50 years, the dominant colors of GARLOCK's packaging materials have been yellow, red and black. Sometimes black has predominated, and at other times yellow has been the dominant color. However, the three colors have usually been used together. GARLOCK cannot identify with any specificity the type of packaging used for particular products at particular times. The form in which GARLOCK asbestos-containing products are shipped varies, depending upon the size and configuration of each item, the number of items called for by the customer's order, and the customer's own desires. Among the containers used are burlap bags, cardboard boxes and wooden crates. In addition, asbestos sheet is occasionally shipped flat on wooden pallets. All of its products, both those containing asbestos and those containing no asbestos, have been sold under the GARLOCK name. In addition, the Calipers and Scale trademark was used with all of its products from about 1900 until approximately 1968. A number of secondary trademarks have also been used over the years. Principal marks which have been used in connection with asbestos-containing products, as well as non-asbestos-containing products, have been BELMONT, GUARDIAN, CHEVRON, LATTICE BRAID, PALMYRA and PAPER-PAK. -37- INTERROGATORY NO. 32: Has Defendant or any of its subsidiary or predecessor companies at any time entered into a "rebranding" agreement with any other company, either as buyer or seller, concerning asbestos materials or asbestos products?

Additionally, because it is an overly broad request, imposes an undue burden on Defendant, and seeks information protected from disclosure by the attorney/client privilege and attorney work product privilege. Subject to these objections and without waiving them, Defendant responds as follows: This Defendant discloses the following fact witnesses who may be called to testify at trial: 1. Any present or former employee of GARLOCK. GARLOCK specifically identifies Mr. Clayton Jewett and Mr. Roy Whittaker as former employees, and Mr. James E. Heffron as a current employee, who may testify on behalf of GARLOCK. Messrs. Jewett, Whittaker and/or Heffron may provide testimony on the process involved in the manufacture of various asbestos containing and non asbestos containing GARLOCK gaskets and packing material. Messrs. Jewett, Whittaker and/or Heffron may also describe the various products manufactured by GARLOCK and the proper application and use of said products. GARLOCK reserves the right to call any current or past GARLOCK employees in response to the evidence presented in plaintiffs' case-in-chief. 2. GARLOCK reserves the right to cross-examine any fact or expert witnesses disclosed by the plaintiffs as well as any and all treating physicians of the plaintiffs. In addition, defendants adopt, insofar as they deem it consistent with their own defenses, any fact witnesses disclosed by any co defendants or any plaintiffs in this matter. 3. GARLOCK disclaims any duty to introduce any of the abovementioned witnesses at trial by virtue of placing them on the list. 4. GARLOCK specifically reserves the right to call any witness listed by any party, either live or by deposition or by previous trial testimony, who may have been called to testify in this case for the purpose of impeachment, rebuttal, or any other purpose the law allows. 5. GARLOCK has not yet completed its determination of witnesses and reserves the right to supplement and amend -46- this list up to and including the time of trial. 6. Any and all treating physicians, attending physicians, screening physicians and pathologists of the plaintiffs' decedent and of the plaintiffs. 7. Any and all family members, friends, or other witnesses disclosed by the plaintiffs or otherwise revealed in discovery to be conducted. 8. Any and all co-workers or other employees of the employer(s) of the plaintiffs' decedent as disclosed by plaintiffs or other defendants or as otherwise may be disclosed in trial preparation and discovery. 9. See Exhibit M for testimony lists which includes the occasions where Messrs. Jewett, Whittaker and Heffron have given testimony in an asbestos-related case. INTERROGATORY NO. 40: Have Defendant or its subsidiaries or predecessors ever acquired through purchase, reorganization or merger another corporation, company, or business which manufactured, sold, process, distributed or contracted or supplied products containing asbestos? If so, for each such entity, state: (a) Full and correct name; (b) Principal place of business; (c) State of incorporation; (d) Date of acquisition by Defendant; (e) Whether or not the business entity was ever authorized to transact business in the State of Texas. -47- ANSWER: (a) - (e) In past years, GARLOCK acquired four subsidiary companies which made and/or sold at least some asbestos-containing products. Those companies were the Belmont Packing & Rubber Company, Crandall Packing Company, Dealers' Steam Packing Company and U.S. Gasket Company. Belmont was purchased in 1930, Crandall in 1939, Dealer's Steam in 1929 and U.S. Gasket in 1955. The only asbestos-containing products of which GARLOCK is aware that were made and/or sold by these companies were sealing products substantially equivalent to similar such products made and sold by GARLOCK. The Belmont Packing & Rubber Company was located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Crandall Packing Company and Dealers' Steam Packing Company were located in Palmyra, New York; and U.S. Gasket Company was located in Camden, New Jersey. Ultimately, each of the four subsidiaries was merged or otherwise absorbed into GARLOCK, including all assets and liabilities. As far as GARLOCK is aware, all business records of these former subsidiaries were destroyed many years ago in accordance with GARLOCK's long-standing record retention program. It is probable that old corporate minute books still exist, but GARLOCK would not expect them to contain any information pertinent to this litigation. In June, 1987, GARLOCK acquired The Anchor Packing Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania which has sold asbestos-containing gaskets, gasket materials and packing. GARLOCK has no information regarding the state in which these entities were incorporated. GARLOCK has no information regarding whether these entities were ever authorized to do business in Texas. INTERROGATORY NO. 41: Was each of your asbestos products generally expected to reach, or packaged to reach, the consumer or user, without substantial change in the condition in which it was sold? If not, with respect to any such product, explain in what way the Defendant claims its products were altered or substantially changed after sale or distribution and before reaching the user. -48- ANSWER: Yes. INTERROGATORY NO. 42: For each asbestos-containing product identified in response to Interrogatory No. 6, identify all foreseeable users such as insulators, helpers, pipefitters, welders, machinists, plasterers, drywall finishers, carpenters, boiler makers, shipwrights and riggers, etc. of any of Defendant's asbestos-containing products. ANSWER: Depending on the job definitions used at particular plants and facilities, GARLOCK believes that certain occupations such as pipefitters, millwrights, machinists and boiler makers are potential users of asbestos-containing gasket and packing products. INTERROGATORY NO. 43: Based upon the material contents of your asbestos-containing products, the method of manufacturing, and the method of application, can such products be generally applied without liberating asbestos fibers into the air? (a) If there is a different answer concerning different products manufactured, sold, distributed, or used by your company, then specify the different products by precise manufacturer's name and popular name. (b) If there is a difference in your answer depending on the year or years in which a particular product was used, then specify in detail what year or years you are referring to and the specific products you are referring to and year involved. -49- ANSWER: Yes. INTERROGATORY NO. 44: Was it a foreseeable use of your asbestos-containing products that they may have been removed, stripped or replaced at some time after installation? ANSWER: Yes. INTERROGATORY NO. 45: Before 1970, did you or your subsidiaries or predecessor(s) ever arrange for any labor inspectors, insurance company inspectors or anyone from your company to go to job sites where your products were being used or installed to make or take dust level counts? If so, state when this procedure started, the purpose of such procedures, and all results of such procedures. ANSWER: No. INTERROGATORY NO. 46: If Defendant performed or had performed any dust level counts, what action, based on the results, did your company take? ANSWER: Not applicable. INTERROGATORY NO. 47: Has your company or its subsidiaries or predecessor(s) ever conducted or caused to be conducted any studies designed to assist in minimizing or eliminating the -50- inhalation of asbestos dust and fibers by those exposed to the use of your company's products? If so, give the following: (a) Name of the person or firm conducting such studies. (b) The date the studies began and the date they were completed. (c) Any publication or other written dissemination of the results of the studies. (d) The nature of any action to eliminate or minimize the inhalation of asbestos dust fibers. ANSWER: No. INTERROGATORY NO. 48: Does your company have, has it ever had, or have your predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever had, a Research Department? If so, give the year such Research Department was established, and whether or not such Research Department has operated continuously since being established. State also: (a) The amount of time and money expended each year on research concerning asbestos or asbestos-containing products? (b) What percentage of gross sales did your company or its predecessors) spend on research concerning the health effects of asbestos? (c) State in detail the purposes, duties and responsibilities of such Research Department. ANSWER: A Research and Development Department existed during most of the 1960's. The exact dates of its formation and termination are not available. A new Research and Development Department was established early in 1984 and functioned for approximately two years. In both instances, the Department worked on the development of new and/or improved products and processes. The Department never conducted any medical research. -51 - (a) Unknown. GARLOCK has spend substantial funds researching and investigating possible substitutes for asbestos-containing products, but it is unable to quantify the dollar amount. (b) GARLOCK does not have a medical department and no medical research was conducted by GARLOGK on the health effects of asbestos. GARLOCK is an industrial products company primarily focused on the manufacturer and sale of fluid sealing devices. (c) The Research and Development Department was charged with a development and/or improvement of GARLOCK products and manufacturing processes. During the years GARLOCK did not have a formal Research and Development Department, GARLOCK continued to perform functional and performance related research. INTERROGATORY NO. 49: Does your company have, or has it ever had, or have your predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever had, a Medical Department? If so, state: (a) The year such Medical Department was established. (b) Whether or not such Medical Department has operated continuously since being established. (c) The name of each director, chief, or head of your Medical Department year by year, beginning with the first year you had a Medical Director or Medical Department, and the last known address and phone number of each. (d) State the duties and responsibilities of such Medical Department. -52- ANSWER: No. By way of further answer, GARLOCK states that it has not employed, retained or otherwise engaged physicians, industrial hygienists or others to conduct medical research. INTERROGATORY NO. 50: Did your company or its predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever place any warning directly on any of its asbestos-containing product or on their packaging? If so, identify the product(s) and year said warning was first applied. ANSWER: See Answer to Interrogatory No. 14. INTERROGATORY NO. 51: Did your company or its predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever stamp or place the name of the company, its initials, or any identifying logo on any of its asbestos- containing products? If so, please state the name brand names of such products, a description of such stamp or logo and the dates such were placed on the referred products. ANSWER: Yes. GARLOCK has been manufacturing asbestos products since 1907. All of its products, both those containing asbestos and those without asbestos, have been sold under the GARLOCK name. In addition, a caliper and scale trademark was used on all products until 1968. A number of secondary trademarks have also been used over the years. These trademarks include Belmont, Guardian Chevron, Lattice Braid, Palmyra and Paper-Pak. It may be possible to identify GARLOCK asbestos-containing products depending on the products in question and the degree of expertise of the person making the identification. Some GARLOCK products have been labeled with the company name. The GARLOCK name has appeared on gasketing and sheet materials since the early 1900's. For braided packing product, the GARLOCK name or the trade names identified above does not appear on the materials and it could be difficult to identify them because many of GARLOCK's packing products are similar in appearance to products -53- manufactured and sold by competitors. However, the GARLOCK name does appear on the product packaging for braided packing materials. The Belmont trademark has been used with a wide variety of gaskets, gasket materials, packing and seals. The Guardian trademark has been used on association with spiral wound gaskets. The Chevron trademark has been used in association with a wide variety of V-Ring packings. The Lattice Braid trademark has been used in association with a wide variety of braided packings. Each of these marks has been used for more than 50 years and each is still in use. The Palmyra trademark was used in association with a lubricated rubber and asbestos fabric packing for about 40 years, ending in 1960. T he Paper-Pak trademark has been used in association with braided packings for use in the paper industry since 1960. INTERROGATORY NO. 52: Has your company, or your predecessor(s) or subsidiaries, ever devised a research plan to develop or actually developed or had developed, a product which did not contain asbestos and which could be substituted for one or more of your asbestos- containing products? If so, state the date that such research plan was begun and when such asbestos-free product was first placed on the market. ANSWER: Yes. GARLOCK has always made available non-asbestos containing sealing products as well as asbestos-containing sealing products to its customers. This Defendant has not recommended asbestos containing products for any particular purpose. Customers specified the need for asbestos-containing material for certain applications requiring a heat resistant sealing product. GARLOCK has constantly been involved in supplementing and developing products to satisfy customer needs and meet specific application requirements of the customer. The non-asbestos products which most closely conformed to the properties of the asbestos-containing products were developed after 1970. GARLOCK has made numerous changes in products over the years. Changes were made for many reasons, including cost -54- reduction, improved performance or because of the development of new materials. Introduction, distribution, improvement, modification and discontinuance of styles of all kinds has been a continuing process at GARLOCK. Over the years, GARLOCK has discontinued the manufacture and sale of numerous types of asbestos-containing products. Asbestos products were discontinued when new and better products became available. New products were put on the market after comprehensive design, development and testing was performed by GARLOCK's technical staff. The success of new products is dependent on customers acceptance of the product. Customers must determine if a new product meets its application requirements. Since 1970, many products have been developed by GARLOCK and been accepted by customers because these products have proven to be functionally equal or superior to the asbestos-containing products that previously were used for particular applications. However, there are certain applications for which there is no adequate replacement or substitute for asbestos-containing products. The dates asbestos-containing products were removed from GARLOCK's product line are shown on Exhibit B. GARLOCK also attaches Exhibit N, a chart with displays the "History of Gasketing." The non-asbestos substitutes for asbestos gasketing material and the years they became available are delineated in the chart. Examples of non-asbestos gasket materials developed by Garlock for certain applications include Bluegard, Gylon, Guardian, HTC, Kevlar and Graphite. GARLOCK developed potential substitutes and replacements for asbestos-containing packing material in the early 1980's. The new packing products include Synthepak, Carbon Packing, Kevlar, Thermosil and Fiberglass Packing. See catalogs previously produced to Baron & Budd in the Fulton County, Georgia asbestos litigation. INTERROGATORY NO. 53: Did your company or its predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever recall any products containing asbestos from the market or stream of commerce? If so, state: (a) All details of such recall. -55- (b) The name of the product recalled, including the reason for the recall and the names and current addresses of those individuals who determined that it should take place. (c) The dates of recall. (d) The purpose for the recall. ANSWER: No. INTERROGATORY NO. 54: Before 1970, did you ever manufacture or sell products which did not contain asbestos and which could be substituted for your asbestos-containing products? If so, state the date such asbestos-free products were first placed on the market. ANSWER: Yes. See Answer to Interrogatory No. 52. INTERROGATORY NO. 55: Have any products you identified in your response to Interrogatory Nos. 52 and 54 not performed as intended? Please list all such products that have not performed as intended. ANSWER: Yes. All products occasionally display performance problems, and customers, have on occasion, reported that non-asbestos products developed since 1970, do not perform as well as the asbestos products designed for similar applications. The customer has the ultimate authority in choosing the particular product for a particular application and evaluating whether particular products perform as intended. For example, Bluegard manufactured with acrylic fibers did not perform well in steam applications and the accepted temperature range was downgraded to 350 degrees. GARLOCK asserts that all the products it manufactures and sells, asbestos and non-asbestos, perform their fluid sealing function in an efficient manner. They would not be marketed and sold if they did not have -56- the ability to perform the function for which they were designed. The customer chooses what product is appropriate for particular applications or operations. There are certain applications for which there are no adequate substitutes or replacements for asbestoscontaining materials. INTERROGATORY NO. 56: Did your company or its predecessor(s) or subsidiaries ever make, order or arrange for any industrial hygiene surveys regarding asbestos or asbestos-containing dust? If so, give the date of such surveys and state who, or what entity, was responsible for completion of such surveys. ANSWER: Yes. See GARLOCK's Exhibit Binder which has been produced in its entirety to Baron & Budd. GARLOCK identifies the following studies by author and exhibit number. Author Garlock Exhibit Number 1. Nielsen 33-38 2. Mangold 18-31 3. McCrone 39-40 4. Boelter 99-108 5.

Each of the ten types of formulations and constructions in which ANKORFLEX is regularly furnished to meet your specific service needs, has identical features, t. Efficiency in either deep or shallow stuffing boxes. 2. A range of sizes for small rods and stems, 1" and under, to large rams, 30" and over. 3. Self-adjusting to varying pressures. 4. Sensitivity to the slightest finger gland adjustment. 5. Precision molded to dimensional accuracy. 6. Minimum frictional drag on rod or ram for lower power consumption. Mechanical Superiority Special lip construction, so sensitive to gland pressure, assures a perfect seal. Pressure developed in the equip ment and introduced against the packing also governs the outward expansion of the lips--greater pressures in crease the sealing action by increasing the tension of the lips against the moving part and the stuffing box wall. Openings between the rings and around the circumfer ence not only make ANKORFLEX more sensitive to quick pressure changes, but provide a reservoir for liquids be ing sealed against to cut down friction loss. These open ings also assure against abrasion of wearing surface, since foreign matter in the system lodges in the openings.

Each Ankorflex set has a male and female adapter ring, and as many sealing rings as necessary for the equip ment. The overall depth of the assembled set must be equal to the space in the stuffing box with the gland fully tightened (see A in the diagram). This depth should be fixed--not changeable by gland adjustment. Therefore the flange of the gland must be hard against the cylinder 'ace or spacing shims if they are needed to obtain that rendition when the gland is drawn up fully. - Before installing Ankorflex, make certain the stuffing box is free from corrosion or pitting. All rings must be in true alignment, which is assured by using a packing tool or stick which will prevent twisting and facilitate keeping the sealing lips parallel to the ram and stuffing box wail. . When inserting do not start from the center of the cut rings--enter one end of the ring and work it around to the other end, being sure that the bevel or butt joints are closed. Be sure the joints of the several rings are staggered for minimum leakage and maximum tightness. NOTE; Illustration shows method of determining the number of rings required for a Hat installation. An allowance of 1/8* is made for each adapter ring, both tap and bottom. However when the stuffing box is bevelled, adapter rings must be specially molded to St the installation and a sketch of the stuffing box is required showing all measurements, including the degree of the angle of the bevel. tumfer- } quick ids bee open- .urface. enings. i i 5 ? i i For Vacuum Mil lute in Figure 1 that the female aaapter ring must be inserted first, followed by the pressure sealing rings with their lips away from the direction of the vacuum; the male adapter ring is inserted last \ | -~n.r--1. | f ^2 |3 ----M wxm an For Pressure r----wm I mm > Note in Figure 2 that the male adapter ring is inserted first, followed by the pressure sealing rings with their lips facing the pressure; the female adapter ring is inserted last w~. sa -seta ^yj ~ SgJSft'- M-V OEPTK 9 FIRST RfWG 1 -DEP--TH--OP I AOO"mONM.

Hardens in an hour to make a non-corroding, non-fouling, pressure, shock and vibration proof seal at temperatures to 300' F. Valves, gauges and fittings can be lock-sealed at any angle without over tightening. Sealing depends on hard ening action of the sealant--not on wrenching.

Amflex Heavy Duty Packing Ring Sets for Deep Stuffing Boxes Amflex is a self-acting, heavy duty V-type ring for hyi aulic rods and plungers operating at high or low pres sures; and involving oils, solvents, water, steam, or non-inflammable hydraulic fluids. Unique Design Assures Perfect Seal with Economy See the heavy, broad body cross-section--while sturdy for the heaviest duty, the construction permits the re- tention of maximum flexibility in operation and gland adjustment, so necessary in a stacked ring packing. Note these Important Features: A--Recessed wall reduces drag or wear on moving parts and results in lower power consumption. 3--Annular spaces function as reservoirs for liquid being packed against and results in non-compressibility that forces lips (C) against plunger or rod for a tight seal. The reservoir of liquid also causes a film between rings which lubri cates the moving part and permits each ring to operate independently. Amflex Is not recommended for Shallow Stuffing Boxes Under such conditions ask for Anchor brochures describing ANKORFIEX fabric inserted V-Sets or sets of M.A.T. (molybdenum disulphide-urethane). Both of these products may be used in shallow or deep stuffing boxes. ..ecommendations C a-f- T F G J7" G ____ L H jg^1 ^&Ducfc and Keoprant^jEg-j^ j ffiCfortow tcreptriture oiU and schtnt*: Asbestos and Naoprare.:^1- ^For high temperature oils and sotventxc - DR Dock and Rufabtr- JsJ Fbr low tMTiperature watar->, -.m 1900-AJt M1 I9QO-OF-9- Asbestos and Rubbar^si&a!

MOLDED PACKINGS Molybdenum Disulphide Urethane (Elastomer) M.A.T. has every attribute essential for an efficient, long life seal in most air and hydraulic installations. Seif-lubricating The Molybdenum Disulphide content provides permanent lubrication. Slick surface reduces friction to the absolute minimum. Rugged The Urethane elastomer imparts extra toughness and strength to resist abrasion. Elastic and Resilient Excellent elongation, high compressive and tensile strength, assure instant regain to dimension with no cracks or breaks under shock loads. Therefore, M.A.T. may be used with assurance of stability for a wide range of pressures and temperatures. MAT. Maided V-Rings and Sets* M.A.T. V-Rings are available in any size--for small rods and stems; for the largest rams. Efficient for deep or shallow stuffing boxes; The height of the pressure ring edge which contacts the cylinder wail is one-half of the cross section dimension.

ANKORITE POLYFLEX PACKINGS Unique Patented Multi-purpose Seal interchangeable with many V-Packings, U-Packings, and 0-Rings. Precision Molded to Extremely Close Tolerances. M.A.T. Polyflex is a unique design made of Mol-AnkoThane which combines an automatic lip type seal with a squeeze type 0-Ring made of synthetic rubber to pro vide an excellent seal from vacuum to high pressure. Anchor Mol-Anko-Thane Design Data Diametric Clearances between piston & cylinder-, or rod & packing gland : ,.T. Ankorite Polyflex Rings M.A.T. Polyflex split or endless rings stack without the use of adapters. All rings in a stack are functional seals. The 0-Ring hydro statically converts the system pressure on the first seal into lip-sealing pressure on the following seals. Since the 0-Ring pre-loads the sealing lips, seal distortion at extreme pressures does not occur. The 0-Ring snaps - o the groove, bridges the joint in the split ring, and ds the ring together for easy installation. The deep M.A.T. Polyflex cross section prevents rolling and twisting of the seal. MAT. Ankorite Polyflex in place of U-Cups Surface Finishes;--Moving Surfaces 16 micro-inch RMS Static Surfaces 32 micro-inch RMS. N.8. Anchor Mol-Anko-Thane qualities provide much greater latitude in design since the above standards may be deviated trom widely, and still provide greater seal life than conventional materials used for packing. Engineering Data for MAT. Ankorite Polyflex Packing In the Polyflex design the M.A.T. seal element is identical in height to the packing space or nominal cross section. Compute the height of stacked sets by multiplying the cross sec tion dimension by the number of rings. M.A.T. Polyflex Packing Rings used singly often replace conventional U-Shapes. The 0-Ring projects above the lip to function as a spacer to provide lip clearance while spring : the sealing lips. No other mechanical spring loadng devices or spacers are required. To compute packing space depth allow a minimum clear ance over the total packing height of 10% of the packing space or cross section. Gland pressure need not be applied to the packing since the 0-Ring preloads the sealing lips and the deep cross section prevents rolling or twisting of the seal. MAT. Ankorite Polyflex interchangeable with 0-Rings To replace existing packing with Polyflex, compute the nearest number of rings needed to obtain a packing M.A.T. Polyflex fits standard 0-Ring grooves height less than the depth of the packing space. If Wand may be used interchangeably with 0-Rings in single acting applications of Vs" cross section and larger. For double acting applica- special applications require an exact packing height, space rings can be furnished.

For long cylinder life with corresponding economy all hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders should be equipped with this two-fold functioning Double Up Wiper Ring. In one direction it functions to wipe the rod clean of all foreign matter and eliminates the suction of air into the cylinder on the "in stroke", thus preventing damage to internal parts and hydraulic media. In the other direction it functions as a secondary rod seal, insuring a per fectly dry rod on the "out stroke". Beside its func tion as an external wiper, it is effective as an in ternal seal where positive sealing is required in two directions at one time. ^Construction: Precision molded to fit in a square . groove with the correct amount of lip interference ,, to insure positive sealing, with minimum friction ` or drag. Manufactured of a Buna-N base com pound, it is impervious to air, oil and water; and has flexibility which makes it easy to assemble and disassemble. Sizes: For all rod diameters. Complete list of sizes and dimensions available on request Homogeneous Cup Packing--Styia2920H. Controlled compression provides positive sealing at the I.D. of cup; prevents cold flow from exces sive compression of the web of the cup, which im pairs heel clearance; protects clearance molded into the cup by insuring that the web can only be compressed a predetermined amount, sufficient to seal with the aid of bead "B" in the follower plate. This predetermined amount of compression is con trolled by the depth of shoulder "A", for when fol lower plate is bolted down, metal to metal contact occurs between follower and piston. Cup for piston seals in reciprocating motion applications where a positive seal is essential. Style 2920-H Anklon Quik-Seal Style 1175 The modern, fast, clean, neat, easy way to pack valve, stems. Protects against corrosion by acids, gases and solvents. Does not deteriorate; easily formed into stuffing boxes; retains its flexibility and is permanently self-lubricating. Sizes: 1/8" in diameter (25' to the roll).3/16" and 5/32" (15' to the roll). 13 Ankorite Molded Fabric Inserted Packings for Oil, Air, Water, Gasoline, Solvents or Gases Flange-Shape Cup-Shape U-Shape Flared "U" These Ankorite packings are accurately molded from a strong cotton duck frictioned with an oil and solvent resisting compound. This formulation meets most ser vice requirements of temperatures from sub-zero to 450 F.; pressures to 2,000 p.s.i. Two Types: Dense or Flexible Style 11: Dense Type For high pressure presses, pumps, clutches, welding equipment, lifts, jacks, etc. Also where a low coefficient of friction is required. Style 43: Flexible Type For equipment requiring a very sensitive packing to in sure a positive seal. This type is also used to advantage where cylinders and rods are scored, slightly worn or remachined. Sizes: Cylinder diameters from 3/8" to 28".

For continuous oscillating or rotary movement except at very low rub bing speeds, all installations should be performance tested. For most installations using 0-Rings as gaskets or static seals, metal-to-metal contact can be main tained, thus allowing almost unlimited pressures even under extreme vibration and repeated impulsing. ANKORITE 0-Rings give effective sealing through wide ranges of pressure, temperature and movement with the added advantages of sealing pressure in both directions and having low running friction on moving parts. ANKORITE 0-Rings not only reduce production costs through simplification of product designs and installa tion methods, but also hold maintenance costs at a min imum since special assembly tools are not necessary and no critical gland adjustments need be made. An important economy is that one ring only is required on piston or rod with frequent replacement unnecessary.

Only long spinning grades of the finest duality Canadian chrysolite asbestos are used ii-a Asbestos. Where the qualities of this exceptional fiber are required, only the pure African Crocidolite Cape Blue variety is used Flax, Cotton, Jute, and Synthetic Yams. In all cases top grade fibers which have been milled, cleaned, and carded are spun into yams which are twisted to the proper size ;-nq weight for the specific packing. Synthetic filaments i as TFE are made to Anchor's rigid specifications Binders, Compounds, and Lubricants. Many types of natural and synthetic materials are used as binders and compounds for the many Anchor constructions. Lubri cants include graphite, waxes, and various selected oils, depending on the services for which specific packings 3re designed (Most Anchor styles are also available dry) BRAIDS Ankorlok 8raid is the pre dominant quality braided packing construction unsur passed for long life and effi cient sealing. The diagonal weave throughout the body and surface of the packing results in maximum flexibil ity to minimize stress when forming rings. It will not ravel, wear through, slough off, or distort. It is as nearly homogeneous as other than a molded packing can be and the lubrication stays locked in. With Ankorlok re packings are very infrequent as compared to other braids and since, when installed, it is ready for instant service; gland adjustment is negligible. It is used for centrifugal rotary shafts, valve stems, expansion joints, reciprocat ing rods, plungers and rams. See Pages 20, 25, 26, 27, for the many styles of Ankorlok Braid Square or Plaited Braid. This construction consists of eight strands or ropes, which are plaited to a square cross section. This type of braid is generally used for high-speed rotary equipment Braid-over-braid. Tubular braids are braided over each other until the desired size of packing results. Many styles have the tubular braids around a center core of twisted fibers, rubber, or other material. Braid-over-braid packing is often referred to as "Valve stem" packing. It is generally used on valve stems, slow moving rods, and slow speed rotary motion; also used for centrifugals handling liquids with sediment Twisted Packings Yams of various kinds are twisted around each other to obtain a wide range of sizes. Easily untwisted to remove strands, thus facilitating reduction of size when desired spiral , steam, hot and expan- 19 Ankorlok Asbestos Braid Packings The Flexible Braid that Stays--will not ravel, slough off, or distort For rotary or centrifugal shafts, reciprocating rods, plungers, rams, valve stems, expansion joints Styles: No. 1300 Ring, Coil; No. 1301 Ring, Coil (dry, without lubrication) Sizes: 1/4" and up Materials: Ankorlok construction made from plain white asbestos, lubricated and graphited Uses: Against steam, hot and cold water, alkalis and weak acids on rotary or centrifugal shafts, reciprocat ing rods, expansion joints, valve stems .

(2) If brass ferrules are not used, a packing set consists of two metal rings and two fiber expansion rings Description: Babbitt foil ribbons of sufficient length are wound on a mandrel of the proper size, and then compressed between rolls into dies. This endless ring flows easily to the tube and out to ferrule threading without rupture--snugs into tube sheet threading. This bond of tube and tube sheet assists in preventing electrolytic destruction of the tubes. The packing will not deform tube ends, nor will it disintegrate, due to contact with circulating water. It is also unaffected by temperature Note: Brass ferrules are unnecessary at tube ends when Anchor metallic rings are used. Most operators of condensers using these Anchor nngs have eliminated brass ferrules, especially where the tubes are expanded into one tube sheet How to order: Please specify I.D. and O.D., width of rings or depth of stuffing box ANCHOR METAL RINGS ____ /'__ Anchor Fiber Condenser Tube Packings Sizes: The following standard sizes are stocked in widths of 1/8". 3/16" and 1/4".

When ordering specify I.D. of tube for which the gun is needed How to Install Anchor Metallic Condenser Rings l) Thoroughly remove old packing from tube sheet drillings .2} When tubes to be packed are in place, they must be securely held in proper flush position. This is usually done by bracing one end of the tubes with boards (unnecessary if tubes are expanded at one end. as expanding should be done before insert ing packing) (3) Insert guide pin in tube and place metallic ring over it. Push or tap into threaded stuffing box, . using thimble insertion tool. Place fiber rings in the same manner i) After rings are pushed into position, give insertion tool a few light hammer taps to set or caulk the metallic rings into the threads, and to remove ail voids from the packing Caution: Use a series of light hammer taps, rather than a heavy blow. Light taps will remove voids and set the Packing without deforming tube ends Testing Condenser fter all tubes are packed, condenser should be tested ;r tightness. The steam space should be filled with ater and a pressure of 15 psi applied. Any pack ings which show leaks should be recaulked as de scribed in Item 4 above Ferrules If ferrules are used, be sure to test condenser as de scribed. When it is ascertained that all packings are tight, ferrules may be screwed in. Ferrules must not fit tight over tube ends, but should have 1/32" clear ance; otherwise the tube may move, due to some slight eccentricity. Clearance is important for this reason Use Tools with Care For best results, in efficient packing installation check tools against the detail drawing. Tight tools will stick and thin tools will not caulk the packing properly Anchor offers loading and removing tools for installing all standard sizes of condenser packing Measuring Condensers for Rings I.D. of rings is the same as O.D. of the tubes 0.0. of rings is determined by diameter of counterbore at bottom of threads in tube sheet. Since this is the vital measurement, micrometer calipers should be used; and the measurement should be checked by gauging several bores at random about the tube sheet. Order rings to the largest size that will slip into place Width of rings is determined by depth of drilling in the tube sheet. This is commonly 11/16" or 3/4". For these depths order metal rings 5/16" wide and fiber rings 3/16" wide. For other depths vary the widths of rings to accommodate the requirements Number of rings. If ferrules are not used, two metal and two fiber rings are needed. With ferrules, two met al and one fiber ring are required 6S Virgin Anklon (TFE) Expansion Joints and Flexible Couplings For pipe lines conveying acids, caustics, most solvents, food products Pressures, 25 psi and higher.

Seals to burst strength of pipe. It is proof against pressure, shock, vibration and heat to 300F. It is insoluble in acids, acetone, alcohol, benzine and chlorinated solvents. Ankorite Hydraulic Sealant obsoletes pipe dopes which remain soft and blow out under pressure. It hardens only in the joint and cannot leave solid particles in the line to foul valves in equipment. It prevents seizing because of corrosion between threads. Valves, gauges and fit tings can be lock-sealed at any angle without over tightening--sealing depends on hardening action of the sealant, not on wrenching. Joints can be disas sembled at any time with regular tools Anko Hightemp Compound--Anti-seize Style: No. 5400 Sizes: 1/4-lb. and 1-lb. cans Description: Although it effectively seals thread and flange joints against leakage, this compound has been formulated to overcome seizure of threaded members at extreme temperatures. Extremely fine metal particles in the compound will seal and pro tect when a light coat is applied to any clean ferrous or non-ferrous surface: even under the most adverse pressure and heat conditions--to 2000F. Dissimilar metals may be joined without the danger of galvanic pitting. Abrasion cannot entirely remove the compound, nor will it be penetrated by carbon from oil residues. There will be no thread tearing or * galling, and friction is negligible. Parts protected by No. 5400 are easily removed whenever necessary. When brushed on metal gaskets, No. 5400 prevents wire drawing and subsequent burning. On composi tion gaskets it prevents drying out and shrinkage, allowing easy removal of gasket without scraping and cleaning metal surfaces Uses: In addition to the efficiency of No. 5400 for thread and flange joints, it is effective for shrink and press fits, pulleys, couplings, sockets, shaftings and keys. Valuable for marine and railroad use; for Diesel heavy duty stationary engines, all types of in ternal combustion engines,- contractors' equipment, automotive parts, steam and plumbing fittings.

IN ) FULTON COUNTY,GEORGIA FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA ) Defendant, GARLOCK INC., responds to Plaintiffs Subpoena Duces Tecum (attached to Plaintiffs Fourth Amended Notice of the Deposition of the Corporate Representative of Garlock Inc), as follows: GENERAL OBJECTIONS 1. Plaintiffs Subpoena Duces Tecum seeks information going back to the 1930's. Garlock has made a good faith effort to identify and produce documents germane and relevant to Plaintiffs subpoena. However, Garlock has found it difficult, if not impossible to retrieve all of the documents that are potentially responsive to the extremely broad requests tendered by the Plaintiffs. Garlock is producing numerous product catalogs and advertising brochures going back many years, but Garlock does not represent or guarantee that all catalogs or advertising brochures prepared or issued by Garlock over the past seventy years are being produced in response to Plaintiffs request. Garlock does represent that it is producing all relevant and responsive material that has been located in its corporate files after completion of a good faith search by Garlock employees and counsel. Garlock also represents that the catalogs and advertising brochures being produced do identify the gasket products manufactured and sold by Gariock since the 1930's. Garlock generally objects to all requests in the subpoena on the grounds that the requests are overbroad, vague, ambiguous and unduly burdensome and not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. 2. The subpoena seeks production of aN documents relating to all gasket products manufactured/sold and distributed by Garlock from 1930 to the present. The requests are not limited to Garlock asbestos-containing gasket products identified by Plaintiffs in this litigation. Additionally the requests are not limited to the time frame or job sites at issue in this litigation. Therefore, the requests are overbroad, unduly burdensome and are not reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible evidence. Garlock objects to all individual requests for production set forth in the Subpoena Duces Tecum on the grounds that the requests seek information not relevant to this litigation. 3. The subpoena is duplicative of earlier requests made by Plaintiffs counsel to Garlock in the asbestos litigation. Garlock affirmatively asserts that it has responded to numerous requests for production propounded by Plaintiffs counsel in thousands of asbestos cases over the past two decades. In its search for documents and materials responsive to these requests, Garlock has determined that the majority of documents potentially responsive to these extremely broad requests have previously been produced to counsel representing the Plaintiffs. As evidence of these prior productions, and in support of Garlock's position that Plaintiffs counsel already possesses much of the material requested herein, Garlock attaches as Exhibit "A", a copy of the Exhibit List -2- filed by Plaintiffs counsel in these cases. Garlock objects to the Subpoena Tuces Decum filed here because said requests are duplicative and cumulative in nature. A request that Garlock produce identical or substantially similar catalogs and advertising brochures in this litigation is unduly burdensome and oppressive. 4. Garlock objects to all requests in the Subpoena Duces Tecum to the extent said Subpoena requests the production of trade secret or proprietary material and said material will not be produced absent an appropriate protective order.

Garlock produces the following documents in Response to Request No. 7; Bates GAR0027-GAR0040 and GAR0044. Garlock affirmatively asserts that the documents produced are samples of the information maintained in Garlock's microfiche database regarding product sales. Garlock maintains a microfiche database regarding sales going back to 1978. The database contains information regarding the identity of customers, dates of sales, the style number of products sold (by product code), the amount of product sold and the value of each sale. If requested, Mr. James Hefron will detail the nature and scope of the microfiche database at his September 10th deposition. Garlock's previously filed Responses to Plaintiffs Master Set of Interrogatories and Document Requests (attached as Exhibit B) stated that Garlock would search its microfiche database for post 1978 sales to customers, job sites and employers at issue in this litigation. (See Answer to Interrogatory 13), and Garlock reiterates its willingness to proceed with Plaintiff specific searches of the microfiche database. The hard copies of the sales documents referenced in the microfiche database are currently stored at a warehouse in Palmyra, New York. Garlock does not presently have access to those documents because of litigation involving the building. However, a search of the microfiche database will provide the identical sales information contained in the documents stored at the warehouse.

Nonetheless, our product No. carries the OSHA warning label so that our customers may be alerted to the fact that they are purchasing a product containing asbestos.

Since the asbestos in this product is secured with a binder and is not friable or loose, we do not consider that it presents any disposal hazard under ordinary circumstances. However, the user is responsible for complying with existing local, state and/or federal hazardous waste disposal regulations . to:_______ H. Hughes - Mat1!.

A portion of this regulation states that "Caution labels shall be affixed to all raw materials, mixtures, scrap, waste, debris--and-other products containing asbestos fibers, or to their containers, except that no label is required where asbestos fibers have been modified by a bonding agent, coating, binder or other material so that during any reason ably foreseeable use, handling, storage-, disposal, processing or transportation, no airborne concentrations of asbestos fibers in excess of the exposure limits prescribed in paragraph ^b) of this section will' be released." All of our asbestos containing products are currently carrying the OSHA. warning label so that our customers will be alerted to the -fact that the products they are receiving do contain asbestos. This is being done even though products like compressed asbestos*sheet i-rrn+-a -I n a binder which performs a bonding function and tends to inhibit the generation of free asbestos fiber. We consider the possi bility of release of fibers in the case of products like compressed . asbestos sheet remote under-normal handling and use. It is, of course, impossible for us to know of all uses our customers . (or the customers of our customers) may make of our products. If, for instance, a customer was to perform certain unusual operations like power wire brushing or disc grinding, or if the compressed asbestos sheet were used as a pile driver pad, it is possible that there might be a release of asbestos sufficient to exceed that___ specified in' 290110.910.10011 " The user should, therefore, refer to 29CFR 1910.1001 for information on handling asbestos and monitoring the release of asbestos fibers. OSHA Regulation 29CFR 1910.1001 is contained in Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations - Labor (Parts 1900-1919). This publica tion is available from: . Superintendent of Documents . .

Nonetheless, our product No.&I carries the OSBA warning label so that our customers may be alerted to the fact that they are purchasing a product containing asbestos. Addendum to Section VII Form OSHA-20 Waste Disposal Method Place waste in a plastic bag. Since the asbestos in this product is secured with a binder and is not friable or loose, we do not consider that it presents any disposal hazard under ordinary circumstances. However, the user is responsible for complying with existing local, state and/or federal hazardous waste disposal regulations . MSDS 2 /2 /8 2 S ty le 8748 Compressed Asbestos Sheet Prepared by H.

C. A meeting of the Board of Directors was held pursuant to notice, March 20, 1974, at 9:30 A.M. , at the Army & Navy Club, Washington,. D. C. . . The following Directors were present: George Barge W. H. Beasley ' C. Nelson Codding Thomas A. Dougherty A. H. Fay Joseph Hall A. R. Hocker John H. Marsh C. G. Morgan Martin Sendecki F. J'. Solon, Jr. William C. Thurber J. K. Whittaker Atlas Asbestos Company ' Cement Asbestos Products Company Jim Walter Corporation . Certain-teed Products Corporation National Gypsum Company GAF Corporation : The Flintkote Company Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. North American Asbestos Corporatior Congoleum Industries, Incorporated Johns-Manville Corporation Union Carbide Corporation Nicolet Industries, Inc. ' Also present: R. H. Mereness, Executive Director, AIA/NA; Carol W. Grant, AIA/NA; Jill Cummings, Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, Legal Counsel. . . . '' Minutes Mr. Marsh, president, called attention to the Minutes of December 6, 1973, noting that the preparation of an "industry profile" through the gathering of information by questionnaire, which was approved by the Board, had not been accomplished. Mr. Marsh stated that it was his decision to delay this action due to the urgency of other business. .< On motion, the Minutes of the December 5, 1973 Board of Directors meeting were approved as submitted. 100230 Federal Government Affairs The Misses Seeley and Simon of Government Research Corpora tion reported on status of current Federal Government activi ties relating to the asbestos industry. A digest of their comments follows: ' Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Revised Asbestos Standard- OSHA is revising its asbestos . standard and has called on AIA/NA to submit in-put before ' formulating revision. In answer to a question regarding timing of AI?i/NA in-put, Mr. Mereness stated that Mr. O'Neill was satisfied with AIA/NA*s schedule and Mr. Marsh pointed out that- if the Technical Committee needs more time to assemble infor mation, OSHA has advised that they will gladly grant it ... that they appreciate "it will take a lot of work". After AIA/NA submits its recommendations, OSHA will draft a standard in-house, submit it to consultants for review, conduct plant surveys to test feasibility and finally propose a revised standard in keeping with the rule-making procedure. The process will take at least six months. A new standard cannot be expected before 1975. Who will serve as consultants is not known. ., . NIOSH has not yet been officially asked by OSHA to provide information relating to the re-writing of the standard. NIOSH has studies on asbestos textile industry, and NIOSH*s Dr. Joseph K Wagoner claims that data has been developed to show the textile industry can meet a 2-fiber (or lower) standard. . . .OSHA State Programs- It is good to keep an eye on what OSHA is doing with State programs. To date, OSHA has approved 2 5 State plans. No one is particularly pleased with the program. Chamber of Commerce believes State plans are being required to be overly stringent. AFL-CIO thinks plans aren't strong enough and seeks to block implementation. (The AFL-CIO, its IndustrialUnion Dept., and the Illinois State AFL-CIO have filed suit in O. S. District Court for District of Columbia to have approval of all existing State plans rescinded and to prevent states from receiving funds to develop or implement their plans. Where The Act requires approved State plans to be "at least as effective as" Federal regulations, the suit charges that none of the 25approved plans meets that requirement.) OSHA is undergoing a number of personnel changes. Occupational Safety and Health Legislation- Many bills have been introduced on The Hill to change the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Both The House and The Senate plan to hold oversight hearings this session to look at OSHA. House.hearings started 'larch 19. It is unlikely that any legislation will be coming 100291 this year, -largely because both House and Senate committees are strongly pro-labor, and the AFL-CIO, in general, views the intro duced bills as legislation that would weaken The Act. "" Workmen's Compensation Legislation- So far, only regional hearings on the Williams-Javits .bill (S. 2008), designed to drum, up support for the bill, have been conducted. Rep. Peter Fre- linghuysen, author of the "white lung" bill, has announced his plans to retire at the end of this session. . . It was noted that NIOSH is working on a criteria document on silica and is currently thoroughly involved in problems of vinyl chloride. A discussion of the rule-making process and OSKA procedures followed. . Mr. Marsh noted that labor compliance personnel have bean helpful and cooperative with the industry. Mr. Fay noted a Workmen's Compensation meeting is scheduled in New York State, April 25-26. Dr. Selikoff is expected to testify. It was recommended that the Association cover the meeting. ~ Environmental Protection Agency- There is little'direct activity within EPA working toward the establishment of a water borne asbestos standard. EPA set air emissions standards on asbestos fibers a year ago and is now working on revisions and expanding the standards. EPA has considered drafting: (1) a drinking water standard for asbestos, (2) controlling asbestos . fibers from A/C pipe; and (3) setting waterborne fiber controls on asbestos manufacturing operations. EPA has refrained from . setting a standard in these areas because it believes health data are insufficient. ' In December, The Center for Science in the Public Interest wrote to Russell Train, Administrator of EPA, asking for a-ban on the use of A/C pipe in public water systems. Mr. Train's response of late January was "medical literature does not support nor refute the thesis that ingested.asbestos fibers are harmful". Effluent guidelines were finalized on February 26, and go into effect April 29. They apply to seven product sub-categories: A/C pipe, A/C sheet, asbestos paper (starch and elastomeric binders), asbestos millboard, asbestos roofing, asbestos floor tile. . There are four types of water pollution controls: (1) per formance standards or pollution abatement requirements for existing plants, which must be achieved by 1977; (2) perform.ar.ee standards or allowable discharges from existing plants, which must "be achieved by 1983; (3) performance standards for new plants discharging into navigable waters; (4) performance standards for new plants discharging into municipal treatment olants. ERA has proposed a standard fox c: im X h category: existing 100292 plants that dump into municipal plants. -------The standards--do not specify controls cn fiber ccnuent of discharge. The preamble to the standard was that with certain exceptions, companies should take special consideration of dis posal sites to prevent migration of fibers into the air, and ground or surface waters. This is not a regulation, rather a recommendation or admonition. ' . The consulting firm of Sverdrup and Parcel is completing ; field work on Phase II of the asbestos industry guidelines. A draft is due late March. Phase II will cover: gaskets, packing gland materials, friction materials, wet weaving process, and coated asbestos textiles. The proposed guidelines will probably not be issued before mid-summer. Mr. Marsh noted Arthur D. Little Co. is working on the economic impact of Phase II considerations as they did on Phase I. AIA/NA members have assisted in this effort. EPA seeks to set limits on the amounts of toxic pollutants which can be discharged by industry into water. So far, asbestos has not been included. One environmentalist group would have asbestos included, as well as 24 other substances or categories of substances. ' Mr. Fay said EPA is now collecting water samples in connection with the effluent program. Under pressure from environmental groups, EPA proposed, on December 27, 1973, its first set of toxic water pollutant . " standards.. These cover manufacturing processes that involve the discharge of one of the following:' aldrin-dieldrin, benzi dine, cadmium, cyanide, endria, mercury, PCB's DDT-DDD-DDE, and toxaphene. Controls are expressed in terms of allowable weights of the substance depending on types of receiving water. Benzidine is the only carcinogen. Only one of the three sub stances controlled under EPA!s hazardous standards program, mercury, is on the list. Asbestos and beryllium are not. The environmentalists would like them included. . EPA used four criteria' in choosing the above substances. Two of these are most significant from the asbestos point of view: (1) sufficient data must be available showing actual or potential environmental threat-from discharge; (2) sufficient data must be available for.setting an effluent standard, that issufficient knowledge concerning the amounts of a substance in an industrial effluent. It has been interpreted that asbestos doesn't qualify because there is insufficient data to sFiow an actual' or potential environmental threat if dis charged. Environmental groups filed suit before these standards 100293 were officially proposed, arguing that EPA had relied or. unlaw fully restrictive selection, criteria in choosing the nine sub stances. Their argument was that asbestos and a of o:;.:r__ suosranees> such as lead, arsenic, barium, silver, are toxic to fish and humans and should be controlled, whether or not there is "sufficient" data. EPA filed to dismiss the suit. The groups ~ are National Resources Defense Council, Sierra Club, Environ mental Defense Fund, Persuasion .in the Public Interest, and the Audubon Society. ' . .' _ The outlook is that EPA will continue to consider waterborne limits on asbestos but unless sufficient health data are devel oped, Federal controls appear unlikely. On the Reserve Mining Trial- Trial will end April 1 or thereabout"! A negotiated settlement will be made.. The Judge's opinion on health question could be unfavorable to asbestos industry. The Judge has indicated that the Government has won on both the health question and the question of whether Reserve could afford to dispose of tailings on land. (This is the central issue, since Reserve has argued it will go out of busi ness if ordered to go on land, ruining the eeonomy of the Mesabe Iron Range). . Depositions from owners of Reserve -- Armco' and Republic -- revealed that Reserve had prepared some on-land plans, that Reserve witnesses had lied to the Judge in saying that no plans existed, and that Reserve attorneys had directed the witnesses to falsify. . - The trial recessed while Reserve presents an on-land plan and while attorneys on both sides attempt to negotiaue a settle ment on an on--land system. Reserve's main bargaining point is its possible agreement not to appeal the case. Since early February, the Judge has said that he believes Reserve is creat ing a significant health threat from, both its air and water discharges. - . On February 26, the Judge made his strongest statement in that he believed there was no threshold level for asbestostype fibers and that there was no minimum dosage that was safe. He said he was working to "fashion a remedy" on the health question that will come in his judgement at the end of the trial. His health findings will, undoubtedly, fuel environmental and health groups' efforts and receive major play by the news media even though scientific community may question outcome. . Mr. Fay commented on a meeting with EPA officials in Durham, N. C. , March 1. Messrs. Fay, Weaver of Raybestos-Hahhattah, and Mereness attended the meeting requested by EPA to discuss EPA's concern about "second level" fabricators and processors of the asbestos industry and how EPA can respond to the demands of the 100:394 Zr.vircr.nenta! Defense Fund. Tailing piles and waste disposal were particular items of concern. Mr. Mereness r.oced that the group had been to GAT in Vermont and wished to visit mines in Canada 'which, he said, he was helping to arrange. Mr. Marsh stated that the Association and its individual members have a responsibility to "secondary level^fabricators and processors. Miss Seeley reported no public information on the AFL-CIO IUD suit against the Labor Dept, since the case was heard in April of last year. ' - Financial Report ; Mr. Marsh discussed the annual financial report and a newly- proposed Association budget;- both were distributed to Board members. He said he would discuss financial matters in detail, but first wished to introduce Mr. Frank C. Frantz of Frank C. Frantz & Co. , newly-appointed accounting firm for the Associ ation, for remarks. Mr. Frantz stated that his company handles approximately 20 tax-exempt organizations. Questionnaires on which to base 1974 membership dues have been sent to member companies. Mr. Frantz stated that accounting will be handled on an accrual basis and through a data-processing system. Quarterly reports will be prepared,, and monthly print-outs will be available. The aim, he said, of his company, is to act in an advisory capacity to the Association, therefore it will not render an opinion (audit) on the financial statements issued. If an audit is desired, a second firm can satisfy the require ment, either one selected by the new accounting firm or the Association. ' &IA Plans and Programs . Mr. Marsh reviewed the Association's history and its contri butions to the- asbestos industry, listing among accomplishments the writing of much of the OSHA standard, the membrane filter study, the public awareness study, active liaison with govern ment agencies, and with AIA/NA counterpart organizations in the D.K. and Canada, research grants to Drs. Murphy and Borow, and a range of public information/relations activities. In the latter instance, he noted damaging articles in the press aimed at the industry and misleading commentary as to the asbestoshealth relationship which the Association has attempted to rebut. He spoke of industry's concern with regulations born in a tine of .public alarm, problems of hiring and keeping employees under such conditions and loss of business that could result from mis-led public attitudes with regard to the use of asbestos. He spoke of the effort to produce compliance manuals, testimony before Federal and State hearings and work with the Food and Drug Administration. He made a comparison of the budgets of the u.R. anc Canadian asbestos associations and the scops of 100295 their v/ork as related to AIA/NA ana noted the snail investment of U. S. industry compared to that in U.K. and Canada. He said that the problem * n the TT,---^--is much- more severe oecauss of Dr. Selikoff's multi-million dollar program, pressures of nev;s media, and environmentalist groups and general public attitudes as compared with foreign countries. Mr. Marsh said about a year ago he concluded that the Associ ation must broaden its.effort; that AIA/NA must have ready _ access to scientific, medical, and technical expertise for .' prompt and accurate answers to government, news media, and pressure' groups. In addition, he said, the executive director or secretary must be freed from the burden of office routine so that he could address himself to such vital matters as close liaison with Government officials, visiting member companies, initiating public relations programs, internal materials, etc.. He said he wished at that time to provide an assistant for the executive director, form a competent technical committee whose members would give time to the work of the Association, and obtain a medical advisor. Events took place, he said, which placed those plans into a waiting period with the resignation of the executive secretary- Consideration of assigning the Association's work to the public relations firm of Hill and Knowlton, where Mr. Swetonic was going, and which had rendered - service to the Association in the past, was made. A second option .was to move the Association's office to Washington, hire a new executive director, and. retain the expertise of Mr. Swetonic through a. retainer relationship with Hill and Knowlton.' This latter choice was made. . Mr. Marsh said without the valuable help of Mr. Swetonic during the transition period, the Associa tion could have been discredited. He said the organization is now viable and has great opportunities for AIA/NA alone has the expertise of the industry needed by Government agencies, and the Association is recognized as a spokesman for the- . industry. He said AIA/NA has the opportunity to assist in the writing of standards and regulations being developed by Federal and State agencies and the opportunity to provide pressure groups, interested persons,-legislative groups and the press with objective and factual information concerning the asbestos industry. "Now," he said, "we must discuss our priorities and how we should organize to accomplish our objectives". A lengthy discussion followed in context of an outline submitted by the executive director. - On Government relations, public relations, and international relations, it was stated that the Association has a good base but much is needed to be done in a continuing forceful fashion. On membership, Mr. Codding said the Association should decide on a definition of the industry and the definition should include producers and users. He said there should be an organized cam paign to get more firms into the Association, and a steering 100296 3 committee should recommend guidance where the Association should be going and what the Association should be doing within a budget that can be supported. The subject of "How clean is the total industry" was spoken to by various members, with the thought that "a Tyler, Texas" situation is extremely damaging" to the whole industry even though an isolated situation and a non-member. Mr. Whittaker referred to his recommendation at the "December Board meeting to promote visits among member plants. Mr. Solon commented that the Associ ation' s' proposed "industry profile" should contain information as to compliance with standards and regulations which could be derived from reports from members on number of dust stations maintained, fiber levels achieved, etc.. Monitoring the industry efforts in compliance with standards and regulations was discussei Mr. Mereness proposed that a "code of ethics" for the industry should be formulated and subscribed to as prerequisite to member ship in the Association. Mrs. Cummincs offered __ I Mrs. Cumminas wais asked to A motion was made, seconded, and approved to establish a "code of ethics". Mr. Whittaker was asked if he would request Mr. Gabrielson, president of Nicolet,.to consider preparation of a "code" which would be a "subscription to principle" and a' symb'dr of accreditation. Mr. Solon stated that there'is information' available to show the industry1s.good faith and status in com pliance with regulations. He accepted the responsibility of investigating a procedure for member reporting on status of industry compliance on a voluntary basis. -Mr. Hall spoke of the importance of the Association having such information to provide the Government and prospective members.- Mr. Fay spoke of the use of such information for public information purposes for the good of the industry, and it was agreed that this could be a product of the effort but the initial intent would be internal. It was noted by Mr. Whittaker that OSHA has access to this kind of information, therefore collecting it for the industry's benefit would hot be an infringement on propriety. Mr. Marsh reviewed the 1974 budget and stated that the budget paper was a.working paper and would probably be revised to meet the costs of a viable program but costs would be care fully watched, and no "fancy" items were contemplated. Luncheon Speaker Mr. Robert A. Clifton, Asbestos Commodity Specialist for the Bureau of Mines, spoke of the Bureau's program and asked for industry assistance in compiling information for BuMir.es Mineral Industry survey. Mr. Clifton distributed a proposed survey 10029? questionnaire and inquired of members if the information beir.c asked is of the kind which can be obtained from industry. * Mr. Clifton pointed out that under the Information Act of The Congress, confidentiality of source information is main tained and sources are not revealed in the data collection and use procedure. . Mr. Hooker asked how the BuMines mailing list is determined. Mr. Clifton said that he had a list of 40 and that he had obtained an importer's mailing list indicating destinations of asbestos. Also, the census of manufacturers from the U. S. Dept, of Commerce is another source. He said he arrives at an annual asbestos con sumption figure by using import and export information. Old Business . The contract with the Hill and Knowlton firm was discussed, noting that it expires in August. It was announced that Dr. Joseph Goodman of Charleston, s.C. would serve as advisor to AIA/NA for medical portion of OSHA standard-making. New membership and possible changes to dues ' structuring were tabled for future review. . ' ' ' New Business The date for the next Board of Directors meeting was set for June 13th in Washington, D.

The Executive Committee at a meeting May 25, 1976 considered and declined this proposal. Weston has been so advised. The CCNSAD Research Carp's Inflationary Impact Statement .(IIS) on the proposed revision to the asbestos standard.has yet to be submitted in final form to OSHA. Submission is due in 2-3 weeks. "Best information" now indicates public hearing on the standard will not be before September. Contract for necessary IIS on forthcoming proposed asbestos standard for construction industry has not been let by OSHA. CONSAD has submitted a pre liminary work statement. A report was given of an EPA news conference held April 30 concerning asbestos in drinking water of selected U.S. cities in study conducted by McCrone Associates. A listing of all federal government contracts for asbestos-health studies is being prepared. Among on-going special projects mentioned were: revision of "Asbestos and Health" booklet; development of a recommended work practices booklet on asbestos containing sealants and gaskets; revision of the pamphlet, "Asbestos--and Brake Linings"; and publi cation of J-M prepared "Recommended Safety Practices for Handling Asbestos Fiber" and "Asbestos Occupational Health Guide" under AIA/NA signature. Directors were encouraged to make use of the pamphlets and other informational/educational materials available from the Association, including recently prepared excerpts (for warding letter, summary and recommendations, and medical statement) from the Association's response to OSHA on the proposed revision to the asbestos standard. All are available in quantity. Several news clippings were brought to the attention of Directors as examples of continuing adverse reporting on asbestos usage. Mention was made of the recently announced merger pro posal fo the National Association of Manufacturers and U.S. Chamber of Commerce. AIA/NA enjoys good working relationships with these organizations. Ratification of Actions Mr. Dougherty stated the ballot response of members to the proposed establishment of an AIA/NA sponsored program for legal assistance (hereinafter known as Legal/Medical Research Program) in defense of litigation alleging injury because of exposure to asbestos fiber as presented to Directors at meeting March 26 was highly favorable. In addition, he set forth the reasons for increased office space requirements for the Association and that the Executive Director had negotiated a five-year lease 1002c j 2ffective as of June 1 with his approval. He explained the j necessity for ratification of these actions and read the ! following statement: i "Resolved that all the actions of the officers, agents and attorneys for the corporation with the date hereof are ratified and confirmed in all res pects regarding the following: the formation of a program to develop a legal and medical bank of information for use of the membership and the authorization of the Executive Committee to form a Legal/Medical Research Committee to oversee the program and, secondly, to execute the lease for the new office premises." Comments and/or questions were invited. On motion, the above resolution was approved. Mr. Dougherty announced that -the following had agreed to serve on the Legal/Medical Research Committee: Guy G. Gabrielson, Jr., Nicolet, Inc, Chairman Dennis H. Markuson, Johns-Manville Corp. C. F. Wilson, Jim Walter Corp. Wolfgang A. Guenther, Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. John H. Chidester, Brunswick Fabricators, Inc. C.' J. Pontz, Certain-teed Corp. . ' Legal/Medical .Research Program Mr. Gabrielson noted title "Legal/Melical Research Program" better defined the work and objectives for this effort than "Legal Assistance Program" as originally identified. He re ferred to the sequence of events leading to formalization of this proaram with Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft (and stated Mr. Gabrielson sAid Philip E. Enterline, Ph.D., Professor of Biostatistics, University of Pittsburgh, had agreed to work on .this project. Dr. Enterline has recommended Ian T. T. Higgins, M.D.-of the University of Michigan as a parti cipant and stated that a doctoral candidate at the University of Pittsburgh would be available to assist. Mr. Gabrielson said Dr. Weill concurred in the Enterline-Higgins team. Dr. Enterline estimated completion of the paper by year end at cost of about $6,000. Estimated cost of the overall program remains at $50,000. A discussion period followed. _Mr. Gabrielson said it would facilitate the work of Mr. Alcorn * 100235 T f { Mr. Dougherty expressed appreciation to Mr. Gabrielson. for his outstanding contribution to the development and establishment, of this important program of the Association. Report on Meeting of Asbestos Subgroup, OSHA Advisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health, June 2-3,1976 San Diego, CA~ In addition to an Association team of Mr. Gabrielson, Dr. Weill and Dr. Rhodes, a team from Johns-Manville including Dr. .Kotin, Dr. Chase, Milt Trosper, and Dick Carter attended the meeting and made presentations. Reporting on the meeting, Mr. Gabrielson said we can not afford- to ignore what happens in the construction industry; there is a need for a uniform asbestos standard for both manufacturing and construction industries. The need has world-wide implications. He commented on the identity of the subgroup members and OSHA representatives. The methodology used by the subgroup was to review the proposed general. industry standard item by item and attempt to* ascertain applicability to the construction industry in conjunction with their recommendations as submitted to OSHA of September last. The subgroup reaffirmed their position that a 2-fiber p/cc asbestos standard should be established for the construction industry and "tailored" or eliminated sections of the 'general standard that were thought unrealistic for the con struction industry. 'The subgroup will present its recommendations to the full OSHA Advisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health which in turn will formally submit to the Ass't Sec'y of Labor (OSHA). Meeting of full committee to hear subgroup, report was announced in Federal Register of June 11 to be held June 29 30, Washington, D~ cl AIA/NA memo dated June 14 refers. . Mr. Gabrielson said he .considered the greatest opportunity for an impact on an asbestos standard for the construction in dustry would not come until a formal proposal is issued by OSHA after reviewing the Committee report. He said the Association ..should start its response planning now. In this connection, he had recommended and the executive committee approved establish ment of an Ad Hoc Committee for Construction under co-chairmanship of Dr.. H. B. Rhodes. Dr. Rhodes is authorized to seek additional committee members, in consultation with the Standards & Technical Committee and other experts in the construction industry, and recom mend full committee, membership to the Executive Committee. Mr. ougherty invited nominations from directors for membership on the AIA/NA Ad Hoc Committee for Construction. 10023!: Revision to Asbestos- Standard Mr. Gabrielson reviewed development,to date and current status of OSHA's proposed revision to the asbestos standard. Hs pointed out that AXA/NA had recommended deferral of issuance of the general industry standard until promulgation of a regu lation for the construction standard. OSHA officials have in dicated that this is not politically feasible. He said the issue.,, of seeking an injunction against-OSHA to force a delay of the *' general industry standard until a regulation for the construction industry is promulgated had been raised by Johns-Manville Corp. The Executive Committee had concluded that AIA/NA would not seek such injunction, the consensus being that uncertainties confronting the general industry should be resolved as soon as possible be- ' cause of the adverse effect now taking place in customer relations and the length of time which would undoubtedly be required for legal proceedings. A legal challenge could be made subsequent to issuance of the general industry standard. Association decision and reasons therefore will be transmitted to Johns-Manville by Mr. Gabrielson. .' Mr. Gabrielson also addressed public hearing technicalities and Association planning. Several persons were mentioned, in addition to Mr. Gabrielson, as possible participants to include Drs. Kotin and Weill, D.K. experts, Dr. Gerald R. Chase and Dr. H. B. Rhodes. He will coordinate with Dr. Kotin in the develop ment of a presentation to avoid duplication. .Mr'. Gabrielson made reference to an important meeting with Mr. H.D.S. Hardie,' Chairman, Asbestos Information Committee (U.K.) for June 21 in Washington, D. C. as it pertains to the hearing presentation. Jur. Dougherty added that the Executive Committee was of the opinion that the industry should strive to present a responsible impression at the hearing and demonstrate concern for the well-being of both employees and customers. . . Association Membership/By-Laws Mr. Dougherty said the Executive Committee had given consideration to possible revision of the Association By-Laws in order that associate and affiliate memberships could be authorized if desired by Directors. As a first step in providing this authorization, a modification to the Certificate of Incorporation of file in the State of Delaware to provide for more than one class of membership is required.- In addition, he explained that the statement of purpose in'the Certificate of Incorporation is,in need of updating. Mr. Artabane outline . ' 100240 was the 'consensus fo the group that the addition of classes membership would be beneficial to industry interests and the veil being of the Association. formal consideration of possible changes to the By-Laws could 0 e made at the meeting of members in September.

Reporting on the meeting, Mr. Gabrielson said we can not afford* to ignore what happens in the construction industry; there is a need for a uniform asbestos standard for both manufacturing and construction industries. The need has world-wide implications. He commented on the identity of the subgroup members and OSHA representatives. The methodology used by the subgroup was to review the proposed general.industry standard item by item and attempt to ascertain applicability to'the construction industry in conjunction with their recommendations as submitted to OSHA of September last. The subgroup reaffirmed their position that a 2-fiber p/cc asbestos standard should be established tor the construction industry and "tailored" or eliminated sectionsof the 'general standard that were thought unrealistic for the con struction industry. The subgroup will present its recommendations to the full OSHA Advisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health which in turn will formally submit to the Ass't Sec'y of Labor (OSHA). Meeting of full committee to hear subgroup, report was announced in Federal Register of June 11 to be held June 29 30, Washington, d7"c7 AIA/NA memo dated June 14 refers. . Mr. Gabrielson said he .considered the greatest opportunity for an impact on an asbestos standard for the construction in dustry would not come until a formal proposal is issued by OSHA after reviewing the Committee report. He said the Association .should start its response planning now. In this connection, he had recommended and the.executive committee approved establish ment of an Ad Hoc Committee for Construction under co-Chairmanship of Dr.. H. B. Rhodes. Dr. Rhodes is authorized to seek additional committee members, in consultation with the Standards & Technical ommittee and other experts in the construction industry, and recom mend full committee membership to the Executive Committee. Mr. Dougherty invited nominations from directors for membership on the AIA/NA Ad Hoc Committee for Construction. 10023S Revision to Asbestos Standard Mr. Gabrielson reviewed development to date and current status of OSHA's proposed revision to the asbestos standard. He pointed out that AIA/NA had recommended deferral of issuance of the general, industry standard until promulgation of a regu lation for the construction standard. OSHA officials have in dicated that this is not politically feasible. He said the issue-, of seeking an injunction against-OSHA to force a delay of the general industry standard until a regulation for the construction industry is promulgated had been raised by Johns-Manvilie Corp. The Executive Committee had concluded that AIA/NA would not seek such injunction, the consensus being that uncertainties confronting the general industry should be resolved as soon as possible be- cause of the adverse effect now taking place in customer relations and the length of time which would undoubtedly be required for legal proceedings. A legal challenge could be made subsequent to issuance of the general industry standard. Association decision and reasons therefore will be transmitted to Johns-Manville by Mr. Gabrielson. ' ' Mr. Gabrielson also addressed public hearing technicalities and Association planning. Several persons were mentioned, in addition to Mr. Gabrielson, as possible participants to include Drs.

Financial Report Financial Report for calendar year (fiscal) 1976 as of November 30, 1976 was reviewed. Mr. Barge said than the report did not reflect any unanticipated expenditures. The payment of $12,144 to Equitable Environmental Health, Inc. for September billing in connection with Phase I of the Association's contracted study on the construction industry was the principal reason for arr increase in negative variance which had been steadily declining under accrual accounting. He noted that the 1976 budget has not been revised to include this project. _ Income from the scecial assessment (at 13% of dues to meet currant contracted study obligations) has been received with one excsDtion. Total income from the special assessment is expected to-be $49,100. . JHM 14949 Page 2 As of November'30, the.Association had total assets of ..$136,436 liabilities of $39,134; and a net worth of ' " $97,352.

Hardie conceming-a formula for supporting the activities of the U.K.'s Asbestos Information Committee. Mr. Marsh said he was familiar with the document and discussed its content. The .Committee agreed that the 1977 budget requiring membership dues of $370,000 should be proposed to the Directors in meeting December 9. Other income would bring total receipts for-budget purposes to $385,350 with total disbursements reflecting the same amount. . - Consideration was given to the 1977 dues structure for members in light of the proposed budget and anticipated revision _ of Association By-Laws which would permit an associate membership category. It was agreed that the following dues formulae would be presented to the Directors. I. Regular Members a) Dues for users of raw asbestos fiber will be based on a millage rate of dollar value of asbestos fiber consumed (freight excluded) in previous calendar year with a minimum of $2,000 per annum. . b) Dues for miners of asbestos fiber will be on a millage rate of dollar value asbestos fiber sold in North America during previous calendar year with a minimum of $2,000 per annum. The millage rate will be one tenth of the rata established for consumers of raw fiber. ' c) Dues for sellers of asbestos fiber will be $2,000 per annum, the minimum rata for all members. II.Associate Members Dues will be at a flat rate of $500 per annum. Millage rates will be determined by the Association's accountant following receipt of pertinent information from members obtained through use of a confidential questionnaire. 14950 . JHfA Page 3 'The Executive Director was requested to advise the Association's accountant that the questionnaire to members which requests asbestos fiber consumption during 197S should be mailed the first week of-January 1977. -Dues billing for first quarter 1977 wi-ii~be--at~the'-same rate as fourth quarter 197S with adjustment in remaining..three quarters for new compu tation.. _ ...... ; "" Mr. Daugherty~suggested that nonmember firms who receive the Association's "Mews a Notes", should be advised periodically of -AIA/NA's work on behalf of the . total industry and the expense involved. Mr. Barge said this should be accomplished every ' ' six months. Mr. Gabrielson proposed that individual firm con tributions of $500 be sought. It was agreed that nonmember firms should be encouraged to make a financial contribution to the Association. A program to implement this decision will be initiated by the Executive Director. ' .... The proposed budget for 1977, `as developed by Mr. Barge, was approved for presentation to Directors. ' Remarks of the Executive Director The Executive Director said he had be'en advised by a reliable OSHA spokesman that certification of the Inflationary Impact Statement (IIS) as prepared by CONSAD Research Corp. was being delayed until receipt of Research Triangle Insitutut'e's . economic impact analysis of the construction industry in order to permit concurrent review of these studies within Department of Labor. RTI's report is due January 31, 1977. In regard RTI's progress, the project director, Dr. David Le Sourd, has stated that the format and method of presentation for their study is being rewritten at the direction of OSHA. He said, however, they believe key information to complete their study is in hand but much work remains to be accomplished in analysis of information and document preparation. Reference was made to OSHA's response to the AIA/NA letter prepared by Dr. Rhodes of November 1 which called attention to discrepancies in the transcript of the June 29-30, 197S meeting of the Advisory Committee on Construction Safety and Health concerning medical surveillance-. OSHA has revised the transcript as recommended by the Association and so advised by letter. . . \ ' ... In ERA, current emphasis is on implementation of the new Toxic Substances Control Act. It is not expected that provisions of Act will affect asbestos in forseeable future. Immediate concern is directed to chemical substances. ERA will make ' decision by December 1977 whether to propose standards for control of "asbestos" emissions from taconite plants based on current ongoing studies.

" ' A report on the highlights of the following two meetings of interest was given: National Research Council's Symposium of Public Information on Cancer Prevention on December 2-3 in Washington, D. C., and Society for Occupational and Environmental Health annual meeting on December 6 in Washington, D. 'C. It was noted that the workers right to know if he.is exposed to a carcinogen or other'health risk is prevailing but implementation of information programs is difficult. AIA/NA was cited for its information program in the asbestos industry. ` Report of the Chairman, Asbestos Regulation Task-Force Mr. Gabrielson said he had nothing further to add to the status review of the proposed revision to the manufacturing standard. With regard to the construction industry study being conducted by Equitable Environmental Health, Inc. (EEH) for the Association, he said certain key data in Phase I is lacking, but that it will be obtained during Phase II now in progress. As to cooperation of members with EEH in the conduct of the study, he observed that those in the floor tile segment of the industry have been the least responsive. Mr. Gabrielson expressed some disappointment with the results of EEH's study thus far, but in general he said, he was satisfied and felt the company now has a.better feel for the complexities of its task and the amount of work . required for thorough research and analysis. He reported that the Association would be billed by EEH in the amount of $19,300 *for October expenses, $'29,000 for November, and $12,000 is-expected for December. The Executive Director was requested to pay the October bill upon receipt and the November bill (expected to be issued third week of December ) after December 31, 1976. JHM H952 I; Page 5 Mr. Gabrielson reviewed current status of the Legal-Medical Research Program. Ee said that a productive meeting had occurred on December 3 with Dr. Enterline (University of Pittsburgh) Messrs. Alcorn and- Officer (Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft) and himself. In regard to Dr. Enterline's project, work on broncho genic cancer-portion-is complete-with .exception...of about 20 German papers' now;-pending_ translation and review 1" "A large.' segment of the -mesothelioma .study-- is -also complete. ` Mr.- ' Gabrielson-explained-that-the -literature review by'Dr. ' " Entarline would now -include asbestosis in order to _determine when this disease was accepted as. related jto'different products, industries or processes. Expansion of the' study\ to include asbestosis had been urged by Messrs. Carter and Markusson of J-M since it was-considered -that a -chronology in this area would be useful in l-itigation -of asbestosis-related cases by the industry. In addition,, the decision has been made to include literature review of other-types of cancer, e.-g.,laryngeal and gastrointestinal Mr. Gabrielson said Dr.-TEnterline has completed most of the literature review for the period 19 33 - 196.8 and his best estimate is that the entire project is 50% complete to date. The finished work product will consist of : (lj complete - file of all papers reviewed; (2)critical quotations from each paper in three-ring binders; (3) card file index with brief - summary of each paper; and (4) a scholarly paper. ' Mr. Gabrielson said special counsel had commenced the interview process.of-physicians around the country who mighty, _ qualify as expert witnesses in any Ira-jurc**-1' tt.b proToor4-' 7,7 a* ' ocr:s-r litigation. Two types of witnesses may be required in order that both condition of plantiff and state of the medical art could be addressed. Mr. Gabrielson stated he was unable to provide an estimate for completion of the legal phase of this oroqram; however, expenses on an accrual basis may approximate $10,000 for the remainder of 1976. ... . . Reference was made by Mr. Gabrielson to his\letter to Directors dated November 12 which addressed an Association captive insurance program. This subject will be discussed as an agenda item at Directors meeting December 9. Messrs. March and Poutiatine said their respective companies were in favor of pursuing a feasiblity study of the matter. Mr. Poutiatine added that Walter Curtner, J-M's manager of insurance, was available to assist the Association as may be required.

He said Mr. Feieraber.d of Abex Corporation had advised of his promotion within his company and change of address necessitated his withdrawal from the Board. His replacement as Abex representative in the Association will be advised. Mr. Dougherty thanked Mr. Feierabend for his; interest and support of the Association in his capacities as director and Executive Committee member. It was announced that Huxley Development Corp.. had joined the Association. Mr. Adam Novak will be the firm's representative in the Association. Minutes On motion, minutes of the preceding meeting, September 3, 1975 were approved as submitted. ' Financial Report . Mr. Barge reviewed the financial report for the elevenmonth fiscal period ending November 30,1975. He invited attention to the two major expenditures during November of $12,143 and $3,920 for work in connection with the Association's construction industry study and legal-medical research program respectively. Mr. Barge said, on an accrual basis, he estimates that expand!cures and income (including receipts from recent special assessment (131) of membership dues) for 1975 would approximate the same total, i.e., $369,000 income vs. $371,000 expenditures. Total income from the special assessment is expected to be $49,100. Mr. 3arge stated that he expected the.Association's net worth beginning balance for 1976 of $57,000 would be essentially the same for 1977 after all obligations in 1976 are paid. As of Nov. 30, 1975 the Association had total assets of $ 135,4 36; liabilities of $39,134; and a net worth of $97',252. On motion, the financial report v;as accepted as submitted. International Asbestos Information Conference (IAIC) Hamburg, w. Germany, Nov. 3-5, 1976' Mr. Marsh said he would speak to international events of the past 12 years which pertain to the asbestos industry, the establishment-of the International Asbestos Information Standing Committee, the recommended work program of the Committee, the means for achieving this work, and the actions taken at the International Asbestos Information Conference in Hamburg, Mov. 3-5 , 1976 . He referred to a number of international meetings beginning in 1964 dealing with the biological effects of asbestos. He said there had been very little if anyU.S. industry representatives at some of the early meetings but U.S. industry interest began to change commencing with a meeting in Lyon, France in 1972 following formation of AIA/MA. He stated at a meeting in Paris nip(i!97 4, attended by himself and the Executive Director, AIA/NA, it J1 ' . JHM '1 5 953 Page 3 was agreed that a continuing international body representir.a the industry should be established. An Ad Hoc working grouo was formed to study the matter and, upon its recommendations, a Standing Committee of International Conference of Asbestos Associations was established on July 9, 1975 with AIA/NA being a charter member, representing the U.S. Mr. Marsh then read excerpts from a report of the Standing Committee's activities in 1975 and 1976 and outlined future work of the Committee as presented at the Hamburg meeting. (Note: A report of the Hamburg meeting, including the foregoing report, was forwarded to members by AIA/NA Memo, of 11/24/76.), Mr. Marsh reviewed actions taken at the Hamburg meeting affecting the newly defined International Asbestos Information Conference and distributed a pertinent report. (Copy attached for directors not present at meeting.) Ke spoke of advantages to the industry that stem from the international organization and emphasized the "indivisibility of the industry problem," i.e., adverse situations occurring in one country invariably impact on other countries . A discussion followed and Hr. Marsh- . provided further assessment of the work and importance of the international body. Mr.- Dougherty expressed appreciation to Mr. Marsh for his excellent report and thanked him for his representation of AIA/NA in the deliberations of the international . group. At the Hamburg Conference Mr. Marsh was designated a member of the IAIC Executive Committee. . &ssc'^a-tion Captive Insurance Co. Mr. Gabrielson invited attention to his letter to Directors dated November 12 which addressed the concept of an AIA/HA captive insurance company. He spoke to problems confronting the industry in regard to cancellation of product liability insurance coverage, increases in product liability insurance premiums and higher deductable features. Ha explained that there is reason to believe that some customers of Association members view the product liability problem as an indication that an impartial judge, i.e.,'the insurance companies, has come to the conclusion that asbestos is a more hazardous material than industry has told them. Unavailability of such insurance could also accelerate the search,for substitute ",-iHpr; a Is . Mr. Gabrielson said the Executive Committee had concluded that it might be desirable to contract for a feasibility study to further explore the concept of AIA/MA incorporating its own captive insurance company. He outlined the concept stating that he was not an expert in insurance matters and suggested the flollowir. 9 questions for resolution by the Board: (1) would the Directors be interested in a captive insurance company for purposes of obtaining their respective company product liability insurance? (2) do directc think that creation of an AIA/NA captive insurance company would be of interest to their customers, slow the search for alternative materials, and thereby be of assistance in the marketplace? He ea stated that the Executive Committee had recommended that the t Association retain a consultant to conduct a study covering the 1 5969 HM Paae 5 said the gathering of this data was important to the industry as the result^ could lend support to a recommendation for limitinq the applicability of an asbestos standard for the con struction industry. When data is obtained from contractors it should be telephoned to EEH, (Dr. Philip LeClare - (515) 364 8500) . Mr. Gabrielson then commented on cooperation received by EEH with the manufacturing industry in gathering essential information. He said a gap existed in data pertaining to the flooring industry. Mr. Gabrielson urged .AIA/NA members in this segment of the industry to supply EEH with the requested data at the earliest possible date, otherwise, the lack of data in this area will have an adverse impact on the total effort. Mr. Gabrielson said the Association is deeply indebted to Dr. Rhodes, Union Carbide Coro, and co-chairman of the AIA/NA Ad Hoc Committee for Construction, for his selfless and tireless contribution to this complex and demanding project. (Dr. Rhodes also serves as chairman of the AIA/NA Standards & Technical Committee.) . A general discussion followed concerning problem areas and anticipated results of the EEH study. Revision of Association By-Laws Mr. Dougherty reviewed the background for which the ' Executive Committee felt revision of Association 3y-Laws v/as in order. He referred to consideration of this matter at the June 10 and September 8 Directors meetings. He said some administrative corrections are necessary, ambiquities exist, and Association mem bership is now restricted to', one class. A draft revision of the the By-Laws was forwarded to Directors by AIA/NA Memo dared 10/22/73. AIA/MA Memo of Nov. 15 advised that a vote on revision of the By-Laws would be taken at the Dec.'9 meeting of .directors. Following discussion, and on motion, the proposed revision to Association's By-Laws was unanimously approved, a quorum of Directors being present. Legal-Medical Research Prccrum Mr. Gabrielson reminded Directors that the primary purpose of the Legal/Medical Research Program is to improve the quality of defenses for asbestos companies involved in third parry liability suits in tort. He explained briefly the specific research work now ongoing in the legal area by Cadwalader, wickersham , Taft and Philip Enterline, Ph.D., University of Pittsburgh, in review of medical literature. Wendell Alcorn, Esq., Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, special counsel to the Association was introduced. Mr. Alcorn reviewed his background and interest in asbestos-related litigation cases, vflc said that the asbestos industry has served as a guinea pig 1 - ^*`1597 1 Page S of. American jurispudence with respect to occupational diseases. He spoke in detail to the_ liability problem confronting the industry and the history of this problem as it has evolved through the courts. Mr. Alcorn said he expected three or four additional memoranda of law prepared by his office for members and associate members of'the Legal- Medical Research Committee would be available by Dec. 31. (Two memoranda have already been distributed.) Reference was made to progress in developing a clearing house of information on asbestos-related cases that nave been litigated in the United States to date. Mr. Alcorn spoke to the interface of his work with-that of Dr. Enterline. . The Executive Director invited attention to the list of members and associate \members on the AIA/UA Legal/Medical Research Committee and suggested that Association members who have not designated a committee member for purposes of providing a contact with special counsel should consider doing so by advising the Executive Director who would notify special counsel, an turn. In regard to Dr. Enterline's project, Mr. Gabrielson said work on the bronchogenic cancer portion of the literature review is complete with exception of about 20 German papers now pending translation and review. A large segment of the mesothelioma literature review is also complete. Mr. Gabrielson explained that a decision to. include asbestosis in the literature revie./ had beer made to determine7when this disease was related to different products, industries or processes. In addition, the decision has been made to include literature review of other types of cancer sometimes related to- asbestos exposure, e.g., laryngeal and gastrointestinal. Mr. Gabrielson said Dr. Enterline has completed most of the literature review for the period 1933-1953 and that he estimates the total project is SQ% complete. The final product will consist of (1) complete file of all papers reviewed: (2) critical quotations from each paper; (3) card file index with brief summary of each paper;, and (4) a scholarly paper. ' . Mr. Gabrielson said special counsel had commenced -with interviews with various physicians suggested by Dr. Weill for recognized knowledge in asbestos-related disease who might qualify as expert witnesses in anv injunctive proceeding initiated bv the Association or in other litigation. It was suggested that two types of witnesses may be required in court cases in order that both condition of plaintiff and state of the medical art could be addressed. 1977 Proposed Budget Mr. Barge reviewed in detail the Association's proposed budget for fiscal (calendar) year 1977. He explained that total dues income for 1977 should be $370,000 to support regular operating expenses plus special projects now approved and under way or proposed. (Legal-Medical Medical Research Program - $25,000; EEH technological feasibility and economic imnnet .`-I'Ct JHM 15972 Page 7 study -- $116,000; Captive Insurance Company Feasiblitv Study - $11,200.) Membership and travel associated with the International Asbestos Information Conference will approximate $13,000. The $370,000 figure represents an increase of about 142 over total dues (including the recent 182 special assessment) paid by members in 1976 which amounted to $323,000. Mr. Barge- noted that the proposed budget reflected identical totals for receipts and disbursements. He said he envisioned that the Association's current net cash reserve of about $57,000 would meet the needs of good business practices . , Following discussion, and on motion, the Association's budget for 1977 as proposed, was approved- (Attachment) Mr. Dougherty proposed that the following dues formula for fiscal (calendar) 1977 be approved by Directors: 1. Reaular Members . a) Dues for users of raw asbestos fiber will be based on a millage rate of dollar value of asbestos fiber consumed (freight excluded) in previous cal endar year with a minimum of $2,000 per annum. b). Dues for miners of asbestos' fiber will be on a millage rat,e of dollar value asbestos fiber sold in North America during previous calendar year with a minimum of $2,000 par annum. The millage rats will be one tenth of the rate established for consumers of raw fiber. c) Dues for sellers of asbestos fiber will be $2,000 per annum, the minimum rate for all members. Millage rates will be determined by the Association's accountant following receipt of pertinent information from members obtained through use of a confidential questionnaire. 2. Associate Members Dues will be a flat rate of $500 per annum. i Section 2.03 Associate Hcmb ershio Qualifineticnz . Any firm or corporation uhich meets the Quc.L1fCcaf.cn3 set forth in Section 2.01 and is involved in a seconaa r 7 ' or consumer industry as define d herein is eligible for \ an associate membership: i A) Secondary Industries -- those industries that continue the manufacturing process with an x.nter~ mediate product (one in which the fiber has previously i been modified in a primary industry} and further processes > modifies or fabricates to produce either another I ' : J H /vl 15973 intermediate product or a finsished product; ' 3) Consumer industries -- those industries that purchase a finished -asbestos-containing product and apply, install, erect or consume the asbestos-containing product without further physical modification of the product. (By-Laws) Following discussion and on motion, the dues formula as proposed by Mr. Dougherty were approved. Canadian Situation . rr Mr. Pilmar referred to a recant determination by the Workmen's Compensation Board in Ontario relating asbestos vi gastrointestinal cancer as a compensable disease. He suggas that this ruling might have a significant impact on workmen's compensation boards elsewhere in Canada and the U.S. " Mr. Barge spoke to the recently published report of the Beaudry commission in Quebec. The three-member commission, headed by Judge Rene Beaudry, was named to study health conditions in the asbestos industry. The impact that the report will have on legislation is not known. He said thus far no public stacement has been made by'the Government of Quebec as to its planned reaction to the Beaudry Report; however, the Report has been used as a basis for extensive adverse reporting in the press regarding the industry. Among recommendations in the Report are r (.1) an average permissible level of exposure to asbestos dust of 2fp/cc should be established, with certain qualifications pertaining to measuring methods, and (2) employ ment in the asbestos industry be so ruled as to prohibit the hiring of people who are tobacco users. Mr. Barge said the report concerns itself with exposure to chrysotiie and the statement is made, "As far as crocidolite and amosite -- the committee is of the opinion that the use of these two types of fiber must be totally banned. Mo exposure should be tolerated for any worker." Mr. Barge also spoke of the possible impact of recent elections in Quebec and concerns with "nationalisation" of the asbestos industry. Remarks of the Executive Director In the interest of time, the Executive Director said he would confine his remarks to a brief review of the asbestos situtation within Federal regulatory agencies, excepting 03IIA which was reported on by Mr. Gabrielson. In EPA, current emphasis is on implementation of the new Toxic Substances Control Act. It is not expected that orovisicns of Act will affect asbestos in the immediate future. Emohasis ; \ e l 15974 Page 9 ia directed to chemical substances; e?a will make decision, hv Pecember 1977 whether to propose standards for control, of "asbestos" emissions from, taconita plants based on current onooinci studies. Revised National Drinking Water Regulations to establish treatment techniques or maximum contaminant levels are scheduled for issuance in May 1977. ' MESA1s Federal Metal and Nonmetal Mine Safety Advisory Committee has recommended change for current 5fp/ml to 2fp/ml with probable effective date late 1977. Since public advisory committee proceedings were "open", a public hearing on this prooosal is not necessary or planned. The newly established Bureau of Mines Metalurgy Research Center, College Park, Maryland, involved with asbestos particle identification was discussed. This unit is providing material for,1 the HZW-NIZH ongoing four-year oral feeding study of animals to investiaate ingestion of asbestos fiber. It was reported that a report on the petition filed with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) by Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. and the Consumer's Union of the U.S.A., Inc. pronulgation of a rule banning certain asbestos-containing patching compounds is now under review by the CPSC solicitor. AIA/MA . submitted comments to CPSC on the matters being investigated. Establishment of the new cateqory of associate membership in the Association_provides a means of greater effectiveness in fulfilling the Association's objectives. Directors were en couraged to make contacts within the industry to advise of ch.e Association's work, promoting membership in either regular or associate category as appropriate. Upon being advised of possible membership interest, AIA/NA staff will provide follcwuo communication. Other Business r .

' Executive Director, AIA/NA| Administrative Assistant, AIA/NA Introduction Mr. Dougherty welcomed Mr. Schwarz who was attending his initial meeting as member of the Executive Committee. Mr. Schwarz replaced Mr. Feierabend who recently resigned due to a promotion within his company and move to Columbus, Ohio. Mr. Dougherty also acknowledged Messrs. Reis and Curtner, Johns-Manville Corp. Mr..Reis represented Mr/-. Poutiatine. Mr. Curtner had been invited*to participate in.discussion of the agenda item, Association Captive Insurance Comoany. ^PLAINTIFFS -'.^EXHIBIT I 100767 Minutes On notion, minutes of previous meeting, December 9, 1976, were approved except for the following correction: The first sentence of paragraph 2, page 5, is corrected to read, "Mr. Gabrielson said special counsel had commenced the interview process of physicians around the country who might qualify . as expert witnesses in third party liability litigation." Financial Report i General Mr. Dougherty referred to significant developments within the last month that adversely impact on the asbestos industry. He cited the unexpected NIOSH study to OSHA of December 15.which recommended further reduction of the standard for occupational exposure to asbestos to 0.1 f/cc; the New Jersey State Senate Committee report issued December 10 which recommended legislative ban of 16 specific carcinogenic chemicals {including asbestos) in a program to reduce state cancer incidence: and, public school closinqs in New Jersey because of suagested high levels of asbestos' fibers in the air. He suggested that these occurrences are cause 100763 Z a r* a 2 for the Association to take a hard look at its objectives and program of work. Mr. Dougherty also said he had recently learned that' the U.K. trade union council had made three recommendations to a subcommittee studying the asbestos-health problem in that country. These recommendations were : (1) establish permissible level of exposure at .2 f/cc; (2) phase out all asbestos-containing products in 10 years; and (3) extend present controls on crocidolite fiber to ban any product containing this, fiber. It was stated that a U.K. asbestos industry representative had advised that the U.K. asbestos industry had been hopeful of. a government standard of 1 f/cc standard. It now appears more likely that the British standard will be determined between .2 and lf/cc. Mr. Marsh discussed aspects of a cumulative standard in the U.K. He said that the subcommittee's final recommendation would no doubt effect OSHA's deliberations on change to the U.S. asbestos' standard. Mr. Schwarz pointed to need for the public to appreciate ex posure differential among asbestos workers, e.g., an employee in troducing raw asbestos fiber in a manufacturing process as opposed to a shingle applicator with no exposure. Mr.'Reis felt attempt to educate 215 million Americans might be too ambitious a program but perhaps more success could be achieved by communicating with contractors, applicators, and directors of public utilities. Mr. Dougherty suggested that companies might invite local physicians' to tour their plants in order that prior and present work place conditions might be recognized. He also said he expected to meet with organized labor representatives on January 24 in an effort to improve the appreciation and understanding of labor as concerns their attitude toward the asbestos industry. A dis cussion followed. ' ' Mr. Dougherty raised the questions whether the Association should 'submit comments on the New Jersey State Senate Committee report. It was agreed that AIA/NA should be active in this matter, giving consideration to including reference to Dr. Selikoff's previous public statement that there is no need to ban asbestoscontaining products in any statement prepared for the state authorities. Mr. Marsh cautioned that the Association be alert when preparing comments to avoid complications encountered by the Asbestos Textile Institute .in-past correspondence of a similar nature with the New York Academy of Sciences. Remarks of the Executive Director The Executive Director invited attention to the Association's revised Bylaws which were approved at directors meeting December 9. He said the required amendment to Certificate of Incorporation has been filed with Secretary of State of Delaware. These actions com plete the necessary steps to permit associate membership in the Association. An appropriate letter to implement this program is under preparation; the assistance of Committee members was requested 100763 Pace 4 concerning identification of prospective associate members. Mr. Barge suggested that ASBESTOS Magazine be reviewed periodically as a source for prospective members. It was mentioned that Nippon Asbestos, Ltd., New York City,-, had inquired about associate membership in AIA/NA. The company manufactures asbestos-containing products in Japan, but sells these products in North America. Following discussion, it was agreed that the revised Bylaws, under strict definition of secondary and consumer industries, would restrict Nippon to regular membership. The Executive Director was requested to advise the company accordingly Reference was made to need for issuance of change #2 to the Association's handbook, "Asbestos- Federal Regulations." Since EPA has advised that a change to their national emission standard concerning spraying of asbestos will be issued shortly, it is ' proposed to delay change #2 to the handbook in order that EPA , amendments can be incorporated. (Further information on the anti cipated EPA amendments are provided.in the succeeding paragraphs) i In viev of the situation created by asbestos sprayed ceilings in New Jersey, which has created a scare problem in" other locations, Florida, Wyoming, etc., EPA is now preparing amendments to the ! national emission standard in regard to spraying of asbestos. The term, "structural member," will be redefined to be inclusive, that is, any structural part not just "load bearing." Publication in Federal Register is expected in two weeks . It will cover all types of sprav-on asbestos materials in excess of 1%, to include decorative spray, waterproofing, coatings and sealants, and accoustical, in addition to fire proofing and insulation. Also, provisions for. demolition or renovation will be included. To expedite action on proposal, certain questions will be asked in the Federal Register. EPA normally conducts detailed investigation prior to publication of proposal, but because of immediate need to regulate spray-on ; materials, interested parties will be requested to submit information on: materials being sold or used containing asbestos greater i than 1% by weight? substitute products and their availability; ahd, technical and economic impact of regulation on broader area of sprayed-on asbestos-containing products. No public hearing is t!o be held. ! On ceiling problem, inter-agency discussion is ongoing to determine agency responsibility, i.e, OSHA or EPA. Issue is ' whether a ceiling is a work site or the "environment." i EPA's many studies on asbestos continue. Currently, community air in area, of stone quarries -- there are about 6,000 of which ! 25% are limestone -- is being studied. EPA has also identified 18 taconite operations of which 10 have been reported to have asbestiform fibers. "1 100770 It was -noted that the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has not yet acted on the petition filed by National Resources Defense Council, Inc. and the Consumer's Union of U.S.A., Inc. for promulgation of rule banning certain asbestoscontaining patching compounds. CESC's in-house study on the petition has been completed and it has been forwarded (via the CPSC solicitor) for review by the commissioners. Both AIA/NA and J-M's commentshave been considered in development of the Commission's study, it is understood. Attention was invited to AIA/NA memo, of December 2 2 which forwarded the announcement as published in the Federal Register on December 9 that the Department of Transportation is examining the possible need for developing and issuing a packaging standard for asbestos. Comments were requested to DOT by March 14. The matter was scheduled for-further discussion at the February 10 Executive Commitee meeting. ' The Executive Director said that reintroduction of legislation to transfer MESA to OSHA can be expected early in the new Administrati: A position paper on this matter prepared by OSHA for the Transition Team, along with others, is included in folders. In regard to OSHA, no announcement has been made as to the continuance or replacement of Dr. Corn. John J. Sheehan of the Steelworkers of America, (AFL-CIO) and Professor Eula Bingham, University of Cincinnati, have been mentioned as possible successors. NIOSH Study, "Re-examination and Update of Information on the Health Effects of Occupational Exposure to Asbestos" The Executive Director reviewed the background which initiated the study , i.e., a request from OSHA signed by Marshall L. Miller which, in effect, was intended to provide data related to the October 1975 OSHA proposal to further reduce the occupational exposure to asbestos from 2 f/cc to 0.5 f/cc. He said Grover Wrenn, Chief, Division of Health Standards Development, OSHA, indicated surprise in receiving the study there having been no interagency discussion . Wrenn said that it is not possible, in a practical sense, to enforce compliance at either 0.5 f/cc'or 0.1 f/cc at this time. The forwarding memorandum for the NIOSH study addressed to Dr. Corn, Assistant Secretary of Labor (OSHA) and Dr. Cooper,.Assistant Secretary for Health, Dept, of HEW, were distributed. The OSHA memorandum by Marshall Miller to NIOSH , referred to above, has been requested and will be distributed to Ciommittee members upon receipt. 100771 Mr. Barge commented that the 0.1 f/cc recommendation by NIOSH might work to OSHA's advantage in justifying the 0.5 f/cc standard proposal. Mr. Marsh reviewed a critique of the NIOSH study by Dr. Lewinsohn, Medical Director, Ravbestos-Manhattan, Inc. which identified certain deficiencies from a scientific viewpoint in that the recommendation for a 0.1 f/cc is not based on epidemiological or biological facts. Mr. Marsh remarked, however, that the final decision 'for an asbestos standard .may be more politically than scientifically based. Mr. Gabrielson said his initial reaction to the NIOSH study was one of severe depression. He spoke in philosophical terms as to our society being prone to "fads" and suggested that the asbestos industry now appears to be a victim of this phenomenon. He identified three significant and powerful "fads" as beinq current: (1) occupational health; (2) environmental cleanliness; and, (3) attack on cancer. Mr. Gabrielson explained it was his opinion that neither publicity camoaigns nor scientific response could put into public acceptable perspective these kinds of seif identifying, emotional issues which must run.their course. He said the assertion in the NIOSH document that there is no proof of what a safe level of exposure to asbestos is comprises the only significant scientific content. The balance of the document constitutes a policy statement. As to the Association's reaction to the NIOSH study, he felt that aggressive effort should continue/in the quest for a reasonable and practicable standard for the industry. This posture, at the least, should buy time and time will afford opportunity for an appeal to intelligent people in organized labor, government and.the courts. ' ' Report of the Chairman, Asbestos Regulation Task Force Mr. Gabrielson said there was no change in the status of OSHA's proposed revision to the manufacturing standard. The Inflationary Impact Statement prepared by CONSAD Research Corp. has yet to be certified by the Department of Labor. ' With regard to the construction industry study being conducted by Equitable Environmental Health, Inc., Mr. Gabrielson said .we are at an important juncture. A fair amount of dust count data has been collected thus far from field studies and from literature. He stated the data reflects very low levels of occupational exposure which is encouraging. He further said this result'had produced considerable debate regarding the development of an AIA/NA position. Mr. Gabrielson urged the Committee to thoroughly consider the issues and advise him on approach. He explained in detail his initial concept of the study as suggested to EEH before the receipt of dust count data. This concept would have resulted in creation of an exposure index grid based on numerical values assigned to various.asbestos-containing materials used in construction. The concept was favorably received by EEH, however. Dr. Rhodes feels that 10077 Page '7 the approach might be interpreted as being arbitrary and unscientific. Dr. Rhodes had suggested an alternate approach which, Mr. Gabrielson explained, would identify five classes of exposure in terms of product and operation performed to be defined by monitoring after adoption of a standard,(outline attached). ; In regard to his initial concept, Mr. Gabrielson said he j did not now feel too confident because he did not think it could be implemented in the time allowed. Thus, he found himself I groping for a good and defensible position to be taken by the i Association which would allow the industry to remain viable in ithe construction field. He reiterated his request for Committee ; thinking on this problem. He said issuance of the recent NIOSH study and increased public attention to asbestos problems had in fluenced him to conclude that a stronger rather than conciliatory position should be taken. Mr. Gabrielson stated that his current thinking is based on the assumption that data collected by EEH ! will continue to show relatively low levels of exposure. He re-i viewed in detail his revised position (copy enclosed) which would be applicable to only non-fixed places of employment at which j specified work is performed. A discussion followed. It was aqjreed that the stronger approach as described by Mr. Gabrielson would appropriately characterize the Association's position in responding to OSHA with regard to an asbestos standard for the construction industry. Association Captive Insurance Company j ~I Mr. Curtner, manager of insurance, J-M,.discussed difficulties associated with establishment of captive insurance companies, jin considering establishment of an association captive insurance | - company he mentioned differences in respective company risks which militate agains a "pool" concept. He reviewed pertinent statutejs covering captive insurance companies as they exist in Bermuda apd Colorado. Mr. Gabrielson presented the rationale that led to AIA/NA consideration of a captive insurance company for its members. He said he assumed that a captive company could be set up in such a way so that each insured bears his own risks rather than operating under a pool concept. A discussion followed. At the request of jthe Commiteee, Mr. Curtner agreed to further investigate this matter, define scope of a feasibility study and, in coordination with Mr. Gabrielson, seek a contract proposal. Mr.- Dougherty expressed appreciation to Mr. Curtner for his remarks and willingness to assist the Association. ~ 100775 i Page 3 Audiovisual Presentation A 30-minute audiovisual presentation, "Asbestos Fighting a Killer," on occupational use of asbestos was _ shown. The Executive Director had obtained the presentation from the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers Union. Other Business Mr. Dougherty mentioned that Johns-flanville blanned a j meeting in Denver January 27 to explore a legislative alternative to third party litigation in asbestos disease cases. A number of chief executive officers of member companies were being invitedito the meeting. ' The Association's Executive Director and Special Counsel had also received invitations to the meeting. It was considered that the Association's interests in the substance of the meeting would be covered by member company- attendees. The next regular meeting of the Executive Committee will be held in the Association office commencing at 9:00 A.M. , Thursday, Feb. 10, 1977.

Present were: Thomas A. Dougherty Guy G. Gabrielson, Jr. John H. Marsh Dimitry Poutiatine Jack L. Rainey Kurt Schwarz Certain-teed Corp., AIA/NA Pre Nicolet, Inc. Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. Johns-Manville Corporation Amatex Corporation Supradur Manufacturing Corp. Others: ' Robert H. Mereness B. J. Pigg . AIA/NA Executive Director AIA/NA Administrative Assistant Minutes On motion, minutes of previous meeting, January 13, 1977, were approved as submitted. . . . Financial Reoort In the absence of Mr. Barge, Committee member for financial affairs, Mr. Dougherty requested the Executive Director to report on finances. A preliminary year end 1976 report and a report for the month ending January 31, 1977, were reviewed. The year end statement noted a net worth of $4,340. Billings for the Equitable Environmental Health, Inc. study paid in 1976 ex ceeded expected payments due in the period by $25,004. Billings. EEH in 1977 under contract terms should be considerably less than the $1.00,000 budgeted bringing the total figure for payments to EEH in line with the contract sum of $150,000 and thus permitting return of monies to the nearly exhausted reserve. It was noted that expenses that expenses in support of the Legal-Medical Research proqram in 1976 had exceeded the $25,000 budget by $11,788. The expenditures were explained in'terms of the ex tensive work being done in the new program in 1976. A final ydr end 1976 statement will be presented to the Committee at its: next meeting prior to submission to the board of directors on March 10. ( Page 2 Expenditures against contingency fund/special projects in 1976 were given as follows: Roy F. Heston, Inc. - - $94,413.05; Equitable Environmental Health, Inc. -- $91,344.64; miscellaneous expense. -- $4,928.40 (industry meeting, reproduction 1 of ex- cerpts from report to OSHA). Total disbursements were $190,691.10. Total expenses incurred in 1976 in support of the Legal-Medical Research program came to $39,578.68. Budgeted amounts for these two line items were $100,000 and $25,000 respectively. It was noted that the 1976 budget was not revised to include an estimated expenditure of $40,000 for Phase I of the EEH study. A special assessment was approved and realized to defray the cost of the estimated Phase I expense. . ' Mr. Dougherty said that best estimates of costs for completion ' of the EEH study and the ongoing \Legal-Medical Research program should be available for directors at the March 10 meeting. When originally proposed to the directors, the estimated costs of these two programs were $150,000 and $SO,000, respectively. The financial report for the month ending January 31, 1977, was in keeping with budget and accepted as presented. Remarks of the Executive Director ' In accordance with approved plans to increase support of the Association's work and in keeping with changes to the Bylaws to permit associate memberships 143 letters were mailed to pros pective firms during the period Jan 1 -- Feb. 4. Letters were sent to those non-members who had endorsed and/or contributed to the Association's response to OSHA on the proposed revision to the manufacturing standard or otherwise communicated with AIA/NA. It was reported two letter response had been received --one company requesting associate membership; one company ad vising' that it had committed its management to "finding a way to get along without asbestos fiber." A third company telephoned to advise of interest in membership but, being a small user of asbestos fiber, the minimum dues of $2,000 were prohibitive.. . Pursuant to decision reached at January 13 Executive Committee meetina, it was stated that Nippon Asbestos , Ltd. has been advised that its prospective membership in the Association 'would be under regular classification as the firm uses raw fiber in its manufacturing, though marketing only.asbestos- . containing products in North America. It was stated that the former membership chairman, Mr. Workman, had provided an extensive list of prospective member companies of which the AIA/NA office had only minimal information. Mr. Poutiatine said he would be pleased to assist in screening the list. It was advised that certification of Inflationary Impact Statement prepared by COMSAO Research Corporation on proposed revision to asbestos manufacturing standard has been further delayed. A 60-day extension, from Feb. 1, to included analysis of the feasibility of recent NIOSH recommendation of 0.1 f/cc Page 3 was awarded to CONSAQ by OSHA. Clayton Environmental Consultants, Southfield, Ml,is subcontractor for technical analysis and measurement studies. ' Significant ramifications of OSHA's recently announced draft proposal concerning identification, classification and regulation'of toxic materials posing a potential occupational cancer risk to workers outlined at jan.27 meeting of standards subgroup, National Advisory Committee on Occupational Safety and Health (NACOSH) were noted. It was reported that the sub group will consider the draft proposal in public meeting on Feb. 17 at the Dept, of Labor building in Washington. The proposed policy(designed to speed up OSHA's rulemaking on carcinogens, would eliminate repetitive debate on certain basic issues.and establish three categories for classifying substances as carcinogens, i.e, confirmed, suspected, and a third grouping for which more scientific data are needed. Mr. Marsh invited attention to a portion of the proposal concerning exposure limits which could have major impact on the asbestos industry. Specifically, it is stated that category I toxic materials be reduced to the lowest level feasible, and where "suitable substitutes are found to exist which are less hazardous to workers,the Secretary (of Labor) shall prohibit'occupational exposure for such specific applications." A discussion "followed. Through "News k Notes" Association members were advised of the Feb. 17 meeting.- Association staff will be at the meeting. It was stated that Dr. Kotin of J-M was on' the program to express his views. . Reference was made to OSHA's advance notice of proposed rulemaking on hazardous materials labeling published in the Federal Register, Jan. 23 requesting-comments"by March 29. At thus juncture, impact on the industry appears negligible since labelling requirements in the asbestos standard and those thus far proposed by OSHA's advisory, committee on hazardous materials labelling, are similar. The Association's Standards k Technical Comittee will consider this matter at its meeting, March 7. . Anticipated amendments to EPA's national emission standard in regard to spraying of asbestos as reported at Executive Committee meeting January 13 have been delayed due to some expansion of definitions in the standard and additional guidance for demolition work, e.g., decorative material which contains asbestos. Amendments are expected to be published in the Federal Register within 30 days. . Special Counsel.has been requested to obtain information pertinent government agencies on studies and grants regarding asbestos, making reference to the Freedom of Information Act. JHM Page 4 Hr. Daugherty raised the point as to the advisability of making an office call on Dr. Bingham in the near future, assuming she is named as Assistant Secretary of Labor (OSKA). Mr. Gabrielson expressed his opinion- that a call should be made following a reasonable settling in period after the new assistant secretary takes office. A review of recent bills introduced in state legislatures affecting asbestos was given with special emphasis on New Jersey. A public hearing on a Cancer Control Act which would ban asbestos along with IS other substances will be held February 18 in Trenton, N. J. Messrs. Gabrielson and Marsh indicated they would be present at the meeting. Mr. Dougherty requested the Executive Director to attend . Mr. Ed Fenner of J-M and AIA/NA's Standards and Technical Committee was cited for his interviews with-news media representatives on tne reported "peril to students" from asbestos flaking from- ceilings in New Jersey. .. Guidance and suggestions were requested of the Committee for appropriate activites for the Association's industry and public information and education program. Report of the Chairman, Asbestos Regulation Task Force Mr. Gabrielson said he had nothing to' add to the , remarks of the Executive Director, on OSHA's activities on the proposad revision to.the manufacturing standard. As to the construction industry study' being conducted by Equitable Environmental Health, Inc. (EEH), Mr. Gabrielson said work was proceeding in an agqressive.manner. Efforts are now underway to draft a recommended standard for the construction industry. This is a difficult task, especially in the absence of a governmental proposal,Mr. Gabrielson stated. He said EEH is using the October 9, 1975 proposed revision to the manufacturing standard as a basis for costing .out a construction standard and has'requested guidance on an alternate approach. Such an alternative has been developed, with exception of a medical surveillance program. Mr. Gabriels described the views of EEH physicians (Drs. Cooper and Utijian) on the latter , and said he has engaged in detailed discussions on this subject. He spoke to the advantage of endorsement of an Association position on medicaL surveillance by EEH's medical representatives. Mr. Gabrielson said he hac incorporated a recommended schedule for medical examinations in the draft proposal which he was hopeful would be acceptable. He referred to estimated- expenditures for such a program and said, if the Association's proposals were to be adopted, the costs would be substantially lower than those required to defrav what has been proposed by OSHA in the manufacturing standard. The Association proposal would apply only to workers 1311 HM Page 5 exposed to over a 2f/cc, TWA, with peak or ceiling limit of 10 f/cc. In this connection, he said, EEH dust count data obtained to date indicate that most exposures are quite low. A worksheet depicting the Association's proposed standard for the construction industry was distributed. Mr. Gabrielson said he proposed a review of the proposal by the Ad Hoc Committee for Construction at a meeting in the near future. He said that, while he had mixed feelings about contribution construction association representatives might make, it would be worthwhile to obtain endorsement of AlA/NA's position by this group. A discussion followed concerning responsibility for payment of costs of a medical surveillance program under provisions of a construction industry standard. The involvement of and likelihood of cost payments by the federal government, employers and manufacturers of asbestos- containing construction materials were presented. It was felt that the federal government would not assume cost responsibility, tt was agreed that in the draft proposal to be reviewed by the Ad Hoc Committee on Construction responsibility for medical surveillance costs would be assigned to employers. ' ' Mr.'Gabrielson said EEH had completed their field sampling program and are in reasonably good shape on calculation of numbers of people exposed, hours per day, etc. Data has been obtained on the principal'applications of asbestos-containing materials in construction. Rough draft of the economic phase of the.study is being written. The next meeting with EEH is scheduled for February IS in New York City. ' ' Mr. Gabrielson commented on the regulatory problems confronting the industry in general and in particular the draft proposal by OSHA on carcinogens previously mentioned. A discussion followed. It was agreed that the Association should maintain its course, complete the studies now in progress and seek the attainment of reasonable and practicable standards. ' . ` Meeting With Organized.tabor ' Mr. Dougherty recalled that he had mentioned at the Committee's January 13 meeting a meeting with representatives of the United Cement, Lime & Gypsum Workers on January 24 in Washington, D. C. He said this meeting had been rescheduled* for March 8 in Chicago. Purpose of meeting was described as an effort toward enhancement of labor and industry appreciation of mutual problems and concerns in the federal regulatory area. Mr. Dougherty said he would attend the meeting and extended an invitation to committee members to accompany him. i Ui i JHM I3U6 Page S Legal-Medical Research Program Mr. Gabrielson said Wendell Alcorn, Special Counsel to the Association, had recently met in Philadelphia with an attorney for plaintiffs in * number of asbestos cases. Alcorn said the attorney maintained a comprehensive, indexed file of asbestosrelated litigation cases. Mr. Gabrielson said it was a principal objective of our assignment to Special Counsel to compile and analyze asbestos related litigation cases so that any defense counsel would be appropriately prepared. Speaking to the medical research project he said he did not foresee any pleasant surprises being found as a result of the literature review. He noted increased reference to'asbestos and cancer after 1964. Nonetheless, Mr. Gabrielson stated he felt the medical research project would be an extremely valuable reference tool for defense counsel and would add credibility to industry's concerns regarding asbestos-health issues. Special Counsel expects to. complete interviewing of physicians who may be : candidates as expert witnesses in third party litigation by the end of February. The next meeting of the Legal-Medical Research Committee was announced for Monday, Feb. 23 at the Union League Club, New York City, commencing at noon. As to status of work, Mr'. Gabrielson said he. considered the medical phase to be on schedule but the legal phase to be behind. The February 23 meeting will provide opportunity to obtain updated (status for presentation to directors at meeting. ' Association Captive Insurance Company Mr. Gabrielson reported that Mr. Walter Curtner, menager of insurance, J-MCorp., had written to define the scope of a captive insurance company feasibility study. Letters from Mr. Gabrielson have been sent to three prospective firms to submit proposals. Mr. Gabrielson said that time would probably not permit response for a full report to directors on March 10 as was hoped. ' . ' Report on International Asbestos Information Conference Pt t |0 * Mr. Marsh distributed a written 'report of the Executive Committee meeting of the IAIC, held in London on Feb. 1. The report included a- review of current developments affecting the industry outside the U.S.A. Mr. Schwarz commented on pro hibitive regulations in Sweden as they relate to manufacturin of products as opposed to their use. Mr. Marsh also distribu copies of a communication from Dr. McCullagh, Asbestos Associ of" Australia, to Mr. Cross, Director General, IAIC, proposing an international workshop on fiber counting techniques. Thu Executive Director was requested to forward copies to members of the AIA/NA Standards and Technical Committee. 3HM 13117 Page 7 Mr. Marsh mentioned a press release by the International Agency for Research on Cancer on "Asbestos and Cancer - a New Evaluation," and a hand-out membership listing of the U.K. Government Enquiry Committee into Asbestos. Mr. Poutiatine referred to a meeting of major asbestos-cement manufacturers in London an January 11 sponsored by Eternit at which asbestos exposure standards and asbestos usage problems of nations throughout the world were discussed. He stated only 15 nations have asbestos exposure standards. He said the industrial group was unanimous in its support of the IAIC that they had agreed to seek a 2 fiber /cc standard for all types of asbestos;and to communicate with governments and labor unions in the interests of the industry. Mr. Poutiatine said the meeting served to promote a free exchange of information and appreciation of problems confronting the industry. . Legislative Alternate to Third Pary Litigation Meeting Mr. Dougherty reviewed the J-M sponsored meeting of asbestos industry representatives in-Denver on Jan 27 at which a legislative alternative to third party litigation in asbestos disease cases was proposed. About 25 companies were represented. In addition to himself,Messrs. Gabrielson and Marsh of the Association attended the meeting. Objectives of the proposed legislation would include: ' - (1) prohibit third party litigation; . (2) cover all asbestos disease which is occupationally - related, including family members of workers; and (3) establish a funding system for support of the . legislation. It was proposed that the first three years funding would, be provided by the federal govern ment and afterward by the asbestos industry and the tobacco industry. , ' After fully outlining the proposal, Mr. Dougherty said he felt there was considerable concern as to success in invol ving the tobacco industry. He said there were many questions as to what would consist as medical evidence for claimants. He said attendees at the meeting were invited to consider the proposal as presented and submit suggestions and indication of support to J-M. Mr.. Oougherty said he viewed this subject, ' at this point, as a matter for individual companies to consider rather than the Association as a representative body. _ Advance Notice for Proposed Federal Rulemaking The Executive Director reviewed the Dept, of Transportation's . tadvance notice of proposed rulemaking published in the federal Register, Dec. 9, 197G, which requested comments on. the possible t need-for developing and issuing packaging standards for certain .' ' JHM 13118 Page 8 materials, including asbestos. Following discussion, it was agreed that no action would be taken at this time by the Association. Agenda for Directors Meeting, March 10 Hr.' Dougherty said it would be beneficial for the agenda for board meetings to be provided directors in advance. For the March 10 meeting it was agreed that the agenda would, as a minimum, include the following items: report on OSHA standards' and AIA/NA work in response thereto; Legal-Medical Research Program;Asscciationi Captive Insurance Company; IAIC; Financial Report; Remarks of Executive Director; Canadian Situation; and OSHA's draft proposal for a carcinogenic sub stances policy. It was also agreed that Dr. Kotin, Senior Vice President for Health, Safety and Environment, J-M Corp., should be invited to attend the March 10 meeting and be the luncheon speaker. Dr. Kotin would be requested to speak to the OSHA proposed policy on carcinogens and such other matters of concern to directors as he chose. The Executive Director was requested to draft an appropriate letter for signature of Mr. Dougherty (Note: letter was mailed February 10).

You previously indicated interest in obtaining certain materials relating to the "state of the art" defense in as bestos-related disease litigation. The materials we have were prepared at the expense of the Asbestos Information Association for the benefit of its members and the industry at large. - Since your company is a member of the asbestos industry but not a member of AIA/NA the materials on bronchogenic cancer prepared by Phil Enterline, Ph.D., E.N. Higgins, M.D., and their staffs w;ill be made available to you at a cost of $2,000.00 That amount was determined by AIA's Board of Directors to be a fair contribution'to the overall costs - incurred. If you wish to obtain a set of the materials, we would also ask; that you request it with respect to a particu lar, pending lawsuit for which you expect the information to be of valuable assistance. We view the materials as work product, to be distributed only in the context of an existing attorney-client privilege. All rights are reserved and reproduction can be made only with the express permission and consent of AIA/NA. If you wish to acquire a copy of the aforesaid materials, please remit a draft payable to Asbestos Information Association/ North America in the amount of $2,000.00. The draft should be sent to me. I shall then see that you receive a duplicate copy of- the information, consisting of three volumes of papers ?g. 2 and representing over a year1s work, by Dr. Enterline and his colleagues, who acted under our general direction and supervision. In addition to the above, you may wish to receive a copy of our "State of the Art" draft memorandum, dared June, 19 77. It has been distributed to AIA and represents our latest effort at restating legal principles involved in the defense. The memorandum will not be finalized.until another, separate study is submitted by Dr. Enterline on the disease .asbestosis, and that submission is not expected before March, 1973 . The charge for the draft memorandum, as well as the ^ final version, would be duplication costs plus a charge for legal time actually incurred in suDolvinc the memorandum to you. The draft memorandum should also be requested by you for anticipated use in connection with a specific, pending lawsuit. The memorandum would be supplied in the context of the attorney-client privilege that has been established between you and our firm. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Welcome and Minutes Mr. Dougherty, President of the Association, called the meeting to order, welcomed'attendees and introduced members attending their initial AIA/NA meeting and Joseph A. Artabane, Esq. who succeeded Adrian May as Association counsel. On motion, minutes of the last Annual Meeting, September 21, 1977, were approved as submitted. Statement of Finances The Executive Director reviewed the financial statement for the eight-month period ended August 31, 1973. He invited attention to and explained any negative variances, between the budget and actual expenditures for specific line items. As of August 31, total assets of $161,312 with liabilities of $53,711 resulted in a net worth of $107,601. The Executive Director said the Association's financial condition was solvent and no problems were anticipated for the remainder of the fiscal (calendar) year. On motion, the financial report was accepted. Executive Director's Reoort OSKA - The The RTI-CONSAD consolidated report on studies of the construction and manufacturing industries is not available, although it has been submitted to OSHA. Grover Wrenn, OSHA's Director of Health Standards Division, recently advised that public hearing on the asbestos standard most likely would not be held before the first quarter of next year. EPA - Phase I of the Environmental Protection Agency's Toxic Substances Review has been completed by the projegt officer, and is undergoing in-house review. The report will ultimately be considered by SPA's Priorities Committee (Phase II) for possible further studies or regulatory initiatives. JHM l4053 Page 3 The study, "Chemical Market Input/Output Analysis of Selected Chemical Substances to Assess Sources of Environmental Contam ination: Task III, Asbestos," has been completed by Syracuse Research Carp, for EPA. The study is not expected to be used as basis for any specific agency action. Copies are available on reguest. Miscellaneous - A brief reference was made to recent state initiatives impacting on the asbestos industry. Appreciation was expressed to Dr. Rhodes and Messrs. Fenner and Carter for their assistance to the Association in this area. A written statement by the Executive Director regarding Association activities for the preceding year was distributed (copy enclosed). . ` Membership Mr. Dougherty said membership in the Association now stands at 37 regular members and'16 associate members. A request from the Richard Klinger Company for change in category from asso ciate 'to regular was received earlier this month. Contributions by nonmembers to AIA/NA's work thus far in 1978 totals'3,575'.' Standards Advisory Committee Report Dr. Rhodes said that the committee felt it was not necessary to submit any additional information for the record on OSHA's generic cancer proposal. Deadline for additional written comments ia October 10. (Note: Date was subsequently extended to October 24 .) Dr. Rhodes commented on the EEH study. He said'that, as pre viously reported, the report has major deficiencies. The Association1s EEH study review group (James Heil, Edmund Fenner and Dr. Rhodes) are pursuing this task consistent with other demands on, their time. Dr. Rhodes reviewed the Environmental Protection Agency's hazardous waste program pursuant to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). He said considerable effort had been expended by the Johns-Manville Corp. to persuade EPA that asbestos should not be included in the RCRA regulations since it is already covered under National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NF.shapS^ it now appeirs that ' asbestos will not be regulated under RCRA. 1H?A 14 05 4 Page 4 Air Sampling and Analysis Program Dr. Rhodes said this program continues to enjoy outstanding participation. Thus far, data has been received on 2,414 filters. A orintout will be distributed which will show each program participant the results of all samples with which that participant was associated. Dr. Rhodes observed that the num bers generated by the sampling program showed some variances which were greater than expected. Dr. Rhodes reported on response to date regarding attendance at the Second International Colloquium on Dust Measuring Tech nique and Strategy_scheduled for October 11-13 at the Dulles Marriott Hotel.. Approximately 25 non-CJ.S. attendees have advised of their plans to be present. Legal Research Committee Mr. Gabrielson said that this committee met September 18 and reviewed the State-of-the-Medical Art Memorandum prepared by special counsel. He said that this document covers the legal issues involved in the presentation of the state-of-the-medical art defense. The document incorporates the work of Dr. Enterline in his review of medical literature on.asbestos-related disease. The document, is now being revised following the committee's review and should be available to members and their trial counsel in the near future. Mr. Gabrielson said that the document would be available to non-members as previously agreed. The fee will be $2000. Mr. Gabrielson added that the procedure here would involve a direct billing to the non-member by Cadwalader, Wickersham and Taft while the AIA/NA would receive appropriate follow-on credit. Mr. Gabrielson reported that the cost of maintaining the data bank by special counsel on a monthly basis would be about $1500 which is considerably more than the earlier estimate of $700. He said the Executive Committee had agreed that no change in this procedure should be made for six months. Medical Consultant's Report Dr. Weill reported on the AIA/NA sponsored Plant Physicians Conference to be held in New Orleans, November 9-10, under the auspices of Tulane's continuing education program. The purpose of this conference is to provide physicians whose responsibili ty it is to perform medical surveillance on asbestos exposed work ers with an update on the methodology of health surveillance. Also covered will be the state of the medical art. This will prepare the plant physician to serve as a witness during litigation. Dr. Weill said that official AMA credit would be made available to participants. Response to date has been encouraging - about 30 attendees are expected. . Dr. Weill reviewed the present state of asbestos-health literature with_ specific reference to the United Kingdom,. A study dealing'with average exposure and'mortality has recently been published. Dr. Weill noted that this work does have scientific merit- . ' . There will soon be published an update of a ten-year old British study on asbestos is. This is the study on which the current. British asbestos standard is based. . Dr. Weill mentioned a further study conducted at McGill Univer sity which is based on total particulates rather than fibers. There is a Tulane University study of asbestos-cement manufacturing industry workers which showed the existence of a level of exposure below which excess mortality was not detectable. Dr. Weill next mentioned the occurrence of mesothelioma in a Turkish village where there is no asbestos. ' ` Dr. Weill referred to HEW Secretary Califano's speech on September 11 before the APL-CIO National Conference on Occu pational' Safety and Health and related study. He expressed confidence that the study would be discredited and stated further that this was an example of the anti-scientific approach of releasing this kind of information generally to. a public which cannot evaluate it prior to the time for scientific peer review. Dr. Weill then addressed some specific problems with the study. He concluded by saying that the scientific basis for the study is weak. Technical Committee Report Mr. Fenner said that the major task facing the committee at this time is the provision of technical support for the Standards Advisory Committee relative to their preparation of an AIA/NA alternative standard for occupational exposure to asbestos in the construction industry. This work is principally in two areas. The first is in connection with rC D. D. the EEK study of the construction industry as previously reported by Dr. Rhodes. The other area pertains to work ractices. Mr. Fenner noted that the Asbestos Cement Pipe roducers Association has developed and documented work practices for asbestos cement pipe. In cooperation with Johns Manville Research and Development, a set of work practices is being developed end documented for asbestos cement sheet. He said that work practices will comprise a major part of the AIA construction alternative. International Affairs Mr. Marsh outlined a number of ongoing actions of the Asbestos International Association, including the work of the Medical Advisory Panel headed by Dr. Murray and the European Economic Commission Advisory Council headed by Mr. Thiele. Mr. Marsh commented on AIA efforts to coordinate attendance of industry representatives at major international conferences. He re ferred' to upcoming conferences at Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia; 3uenos Aires, Argentina; and Caracas, Venezuela. The AIA also provides advisory documents to aid industry in countries where regula tions on asbestos do not presently exist, Mr. Marsh said. A probable increase in AIA/NA dues to the international asso ciation was explained by Mr. Marsh. He said the new dues would be about $26,000 per annum. ' Mr. Marsh reviewed the program for the AIA Second Biennial Conference scheduled for October 25-27 in London. He said Mr. Dougherty had, been invi.ted to give a presentation at the conference. .

Rainey asked each person present to stand and identify hirself and his company affiliation. A most cordial welcome was extend ed to Messers, f'artucci and Houghton, representing GARLOCk, INC., who have rejoined the Institute this year. Mr. Rainey mentioned that the Secretary had received a nice lett er from George F. Jenkins expressing his appreciation for the plaque that was given him in absentia at our last meeting. A copy of I'r. Jenkin's letter is attached to these minutes. 3. The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading. Mr. Bettes moved that the reading be omitted, seconded by Mr. Hough, and so voted. 4. The Financial Report was presented by Mr. E.A. Schuman,Treasurer. Mr. Atkinson moved that the report be accepted as read, seconded by Mr. Peele, and so voted. The report is attached to these minutes. 5. f*r. F.Jay Flocken, Legal Counsel, discussed several recent de cisions by the Federal Trade Commission on area price discrimination under Clayton Act *2(a), as amended by the Robinson-Patman Act. A summary of his remarks is attached to these minutes. 6. Mr. r.P. Carson, Vice President - Sales, Asbestos Corporation Ltd., Thetford Mines, P.r'.l Canada, gave the members a very interest ing review of the asbestos mining situation in respect to production and sales of asbestos fibre. Some of the highlights'in his talk: Overall shipments of the Canadian asbestos industry last year were 1,230,000 tons, about 5% below the prior year. However, there was some overpurchasing in 1964 to beat the price increase on No.4 and lower grades. Russia in 1965 supposed to have produced 1,500,000 tons. The No.3 spinning grades of asbestos fibre are in good supply at this time. However, the situation in Rhodesia could affect this in 1966. Some cotmtries have boycotted Rhodesia, but others have not. The situation on long fibres could change. Shipments of Canadian fibre to North America were about the same in 1964 and 1965. Shipments to Japan have been off, caused by a business depression there; this may improve in late 1966. The demand in India has been high for asbestos-cement grades, and Russia has supplied substantial quantities to India. The Canadian producers are now real "busy". New capacity for producing the shorter grades, now available or soon to be available, promises to meet the ever increas ing demand. 7. Mr. J.P. Wronski, Head-Physics Section, Research ti development dept., Raybestos-Manhattan Inc., Hanheim, Pa., gave a technical paper entitled: "The Role of Fibers and Whiskers in Reinforcement". This proved to be a most interesting raper, and was followed by an exten sive question and answer period. By courtesy of Mr. V.'ronski and Raybestos-Manhattan, the full text of the paper is attached to these minutes. r'inutes - General reeling - continued: Page - 3 - 8. Vr. Rainey read the letter that President Drown sent to Mrs. M. C. Shaw on behalf of the Institute, following the sudden death of Or. Shaw on November 12th, 1965. The reply, expressing Irs. Shaw's appreciation, was read. Both letters are made * part of these min utes. Following the reading of the letters, Vice President Rainey asked that the members stand and observe a minute of silence in mem ory of Hr. Shaw. 9.

Vice President Rainey announced that the next meeting of the Institute would be held on June 9th and lOth* 1966, at the BarbizonPlaza Hotel in New York City. 11. The annual meeting in the fall will be held on October 6th and 7th, but the location has not been settled as yet. This will be the BIG .'FETING of the year, and members are urged to bring their wives. We hone to find a location that will be equally attractive to both the men and their wives, (see footnote) 12. There being no further business to come before this meeting, on motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to adjourn. The lunch eon that followed the meeting was made more enjoyable by presence of many wives. Respectfu-lly submitted, Hote^ H.E. Sunbury --"j Exec. Secretary i Subsequent to the meeting, arrangements were compiled to hold the October meeting at The Homestead, Hot Springs,va. This Is reported, by those forturata enough to have stayed there, to be a wonderful place to hold our annual meeting, and one that will be equally attractive to both the men and their wives. So - we suggest that you start planning NOV- to bring your v.lfe to the October nesting, to be held October 6th and 7th,1066, at the world famous "Homestead", Hot Springs, Va.! H.2.S. oJ GEORGE P.

Jay Flocken, ATI counsel, discussed several recent decisions by the Federal Trade Commission on area price discrimination under Clayton Act *2(a), as amended by the Robinson-Patman Act. Area or territorial price "discrimination" occurs whenever a seller charges different prices in different geographic areas or markets. Such "discrimination" is not illegal unless proven to cause the competi tive injury forbidden by the Clayton Act. The standards of proof of such injury have always been a sore snot and the FTC's traditional approach has been responsible for the common criticism that its Clayton Act price discrimination decisions require "soft" competi tion in conflict with the Sherman Act's philosophy of "hard" competi tion; that sellers who compete effectively in the spirit of the Sherman Act are inviting price discrimination charges under the Clayton Act. Mr. Flocken noted that in a series of cases, ending v-ith Dean Milk Co. (FTC Docket 8032), the FTC appears to be shifting av/ay from its old attitude tovrard territorial price discrimination and to be gradually accepting the vie\*/s of what Commissioner Elman calls the FTC's "responsible critics". At least, the FTC is attempting to announce meaningful standards, drawn from the basic antitrust policy of promoting competition. * This slow tentative shift after almost 30 years Has been accom plished by narrowly divided votes in these recent cases. But Com missioner Elman is gradually forcing grudging Commission recognition of his point of view that competition--not protection of competitors from price competition--is the ultimate antitrust goal. Utilizing Mr, Elman's dissent in the Dean Milk case, counsel elaborated on Elman's view that the proper standard for measuring competitive injury at the seller level in area price discrimination cases must focus on "the condition of the market as a whole" and that the standard is not satisfied merely by showing temporary diver sion of business, minor losses in sales and profits, or temporary shifts in market shares. Counsel also expressed doubt that the Com mission's rejection of a defense by Dean Milk--that its discounts were in response to a price-fixing conspiracy among its competitors and that the decline in its competitors' profits resulted not from Dean's discounts but from a decline of prices from a conspiratorial to a competitive level--would be upheld by the courts if challenged. One pro-comnetitive result of the FTC's slowly changing attitude has been reflected in the orders issued by the Commission in recent territorial price discrimination cases. These orders have tended to prohibit only those area price differences in which the seller's price in a particular local market or its sales from a single plant undercut all the prices of its small competitors in the local narket involved, formerly, typical FTC orders in such cases prohibited area price discrimination in broad terms and, in the view of some critics, tended to make pricing inflexible and unresponsive to the vagaries of local market competitive realities. tV /I ) minutes: Air Hygiene and Manufacturing Connittee February 10, 1066 Barbizon-PIaza Iiotel fJev York City, New York 9 :30 A.<". to 4 :00 T.i".

'.'alter American Asbestos Textile Dausch and Lonh Automatic Dust Counter There was a short discussion on the Hausch and Lomb automatic dust counter, fir. Kelson stated that his company had placed an order for one of the 40-2 machines and expected delivery in March. All members of the committee will be interested in the results ob tained from the use of this machine. Materials Handling Methods This matter was brought up for discussion relative to loading trucks from ground level. Methods discussed were: (a) fork lift trucks, and (b) electric hoists, and (e) hydraulic lifts. Advantages and disadvantages of all three were discussed. Host companies have fork lift trucks, but, in some cases, they may be in use elsewhere at the time they are needed for loading a truck. Elec trie hoists are adequate for indoor use but not practical for out doors. Hydraulic lifts require a permanent installation and lack th flexibility of a mobile unit. Dust Dags for Oust Collectors The relative merits of bags made from cotton. Nylon and 'acron came up for discussion. T.n most cases cotton bags are used. Some companies have experimented with Nylon and vi th Dacron bags. The concensus was that the cotton bags v-ere more efficient and gave a satisfactory service life. One company reported that examination after 9 years of service showed no deterioration in their cotton bags. uJ Oust Control bv the Use of <'ils, etc. Tage 2 Host of the member companies have at one tine used oils or emul sions, sprayed on the stock, to hold down dust in subsequent opera tions. In r.any cases it has been found to be of little, if any, value. Two connanies are currently experimenting with the use of a new substance called Lenospin Anti-Fly SD-5, which was developed by Lenox Chemical Co. Initial results indicate that larger scale runs for evaluation would be worthwhile. This will be reported on at future meetings. Audiometry because of the growing number of compensation cases due to loss of hearing, the subject is being given serious consideration by most companies. Tetailed programs are being developed for pre-erployr.ent testing, as well as regularly scheduled testing after employment. In addition, all areas of the plants are being tested for noise levels and decibel count. Maximum allowable levels are established and, wherever possible, corrective action is being taken. One company has started issuing industrial earnuffs and requir ing the employees to wear them in areas where the noise level is above the maximum allowable limits. __ It was brought out, during the discussion, that there have been four manufacturing companies forced into bankruptcy due to compensa tion awards for loss of hearing, and one well-knov-n steel manufactur ing company has 950 claims filed against it that could run over a million dollars. One of the member companies distributed sample forms showing the results of their noise survey. Hr. Sheckler exhibited and recommended for study a copy of the Industrial noise i'anual published by the American Industrial Hygiene Association. It can be purchased for $15.00. Several States already have industrial noise legislation, and it is being considered by others. This subject will be followed up in future meetings. Environmental Health Survey Turing the afternoon session Tr. Lewis Cralley joined us and brought the connittee up-to-date on the status of the Environmental Health Survey. He stated that the Plant surveys in Asbestos Textiles had been completed. The next rhase, consisting of analyzing the data, is progressing. In addition, it is their intention to analyze trace contaminants, to determine whether they are present and, if so, stil.* active. They will determine whether there is any radioactivity. gnvironnental Health Survey (continued) rage 3 Dr. Cralley stated that within a year they hone to make a report on chenical content of asbestos fiber and its relationship to health hazards. . He also related that the Q.A.K.A. has organized an institute for the study of asbestos and its environmental health effects in order to bring a previous study up-to-date. More and more publicity is being given to the health hazards in working with asbestos. The latest, a clipping from the national Observer of 2-7-66, written by John Henderson, M.D., discussed sore symptoms of asbestosis and stated that the incidence of asbestosis is rising and that 30 years from now it would be much higher. The article stated that "doctors are mystified by the appearance of a rare tissue tumor, mesothelioma, which is found increasingly in asbestosis victims". The increasing number of these articles, apnarently being writte for personal publicity reasons, is disturbing to the industry and points up the need for an impartial survey such as is being made by the U.S. department of Health, education and Welfare. Published Tamphlet - "Method for determining Asbestos Dust Concentration"-1 In an effort to obtain a wider circulation of the subject nanphlet, the Sales Promotion Committee was asked to consider a plan whereby sales departments of the member 'companies might distribute the booklet to customers.

Mr. Howard Rain, our A.T.I. handbook editor, was present and we reviewed in detail prepared copy for the third edition. 907. of the editorial work has been completed and it is estimated by the June meeting all of the editorial work and new photographs will be avail able and ready pending approval and availability of new A.S.T.M. specifications. It was decided to not distribute the A.T.I. booklet on Method for Determining Asbestos Dust Concentration as requested by the Air Hygiene ft Manufacturing. Commit tee, but to make this booklet available if and when customers reauest information. The A.T.I. display has been offered to the Franklin Institute Museum at Philadelphia, Pa., for a minimum of six months, maximum period of two years. No word has been received to date. . Jlr. Peele reported on what appears to be increased activity on the part of A.R. Simon Co., New York City, importers of European and Japanese manufactured asbestos textiles. Quantities during the past three months have increased appreciably. Mr. Peele offered examples of a new type of colorful sales promotion literature being used by U.S. Rubber throughout their entire indus trial textile line. It is thought that a similar type of advertising could be useful for the A.T.I. members in general as a sales present ation niece. Mr. Feele will invite Reis Kapelow & Caldwell, New York City advertising agency, to attend one of our coming meetings. There was a brief discussion of Carborundum Corp. new fiber boronnitride, for high temperature applications. Extremely high price will probably prevent ready acceptance. We referred to our Technical Committee study of weight tolerances of asbestos cloth under A.S.T.M. specifications. In addition, ve asked for the Technical Committee's recommendation regarding inclusion of two or more wire inserted asbestos cloths in official A.S.T.M. spec ifications.

Based on the lowest printing bid, tnis brings the price per ' manual to $1.71 and the price per individual test to 0.16. Since some members have ir.tf* caw.l thov may purchase more test manuals than they have al ready pledged to buy and also since there may he a price concession fer the purchase of 30C0 instead of 2790 manuals, the committee recommends that the Eoard of Governors authorize the purenase cf 3000 copies of the ccmclete manual together with 50Li copies of individual tests.2 2.

Shaw: The sad nev/s of your husband's passing was indeed a great shock to all of his friends and long tine associates in the Institute. I want to express on their behalf our nost sincere sympathy to you in the loss of your beloved husband, and to your children, Ilarilyn and liyril, Jr., in the loss of their devoted father. . 'Doc" Shaw as he was affectionately known throughout the Asbestos Industry, gave unstintingly of his tine and talents to the Institute over a period of seventeen years as Research Fellow, Executive Direc tor, and Assistant Treasurer. I'ore than any other single individual he was responsible for the success and continued growth of the Insti tute. s Your husband was a most capable and efficient administrator of the Institute's affairs, and eonmanded the utmost respect from our mem- ' bers and the entire Asbestos Industry. The fact that you were his only assistant for those many years is known and appreciated greatly. Dr. Shaw's fine Christian character and exemplary personal habits were greatly admired by his associates, and those who knew him best are lastingly enriched by their opportunity for close acquaintance with him. - Our Industry has lost a fine individual, and an outstanding authority on asbestos, and he will be greatly missed. 3 have instructed the Secretary to make this letter a part of the permanent records of the Institute, also to circulate it to the Board of Governors. At our next General I'-eeting, to be held in February, I will inform our members of this official action. You may be sure that our thoughts and best wishes will go out to you and your children on that occasion. Vost sincerely. John A.

The subject of fiber-reinforced materials has been of great interest to me ever since I joined Raybestos-Manhattan about seven years ago -- not only because we at Manheim are very active in producing asbestos reinforced materials but also because I feel there is a great economic future for fiber-reinforcements.. The recent development of strong, inorganic, fiber-like, synthetic materials called "whiskers" and their use as reinforcements has further stimulated my interest in the whole subject of reinforcements. In looking over much of the recent literature on this whole subject of fiber and whisker reinforcement'I have learned a few things and gained a few insights which I would like to share with you today. I am no expert on the subject. It would take a lot more study and research on this subject than. I have done to come anywhere near being an exoert. Even those I would qualify as experts admit that there is a lot they don't understand about fiber reinforcement. However, they have outlined the basic - engineering principles that govern the physical behavior of fiber- reinforced composites. From these principles they have pinpointed the properties of the fiber and of the matrix in which these fibers are imbedded that are important in establishing the physical properties of the fiber-matrix composite or reinforcement. This is mainly what I want to talk to you about today; -- what are some of the simple, basic principles that determine the physical properties of reinforcements? -- what makes a fiberreinforced material good or bad? In doing so, I hope to be able to show you at the same time how asbestos fibers compare with some of the new synthetic fibers as reinforcements. First of all -- what are "whiskers" and why is there so much to-do about them? Whiskers are inorganic crystals that are grown under special temperature and pressure conditions. The conditions are such that the growth of these crystals takes place primarily in one direction. They can be grown to a length which may be many hundreds of times their diameter. As we will see later on, many materials can be grown in whisker form -- iron, silver, silicon carbide and even sodium chloride, to mention a few. Not all are novel. Silver whiskers, for example, were known to the medieval silversmiths who knew that they could be made to grow by gently heating a scratch made on freshly cast silver. uJ 2 One whisker material that has received a lot of atten tion lately is crystalline aluminum oxide -- or sapphire. I have a sample of this material which I'll pass around for you to see. The sample contains three different forms of the fiber. The slide coming up will show you what the so-called "wool" form of this fiber looks likewhen magnified a hundred times. Incidentally, from here on I will use the terms 'fibers' and 'whiskers' inter changeably. (See Slide #1 - Appendix) These "wool" fibers are about ten microns (400 millionths of an inch) in diameter and are up to about 1000 microns, or 40 thousandths of an inch long. Just for comparison, the next slide shows you the old, familiar photograph of asbestos fibers as seen under" an electron microscope. Magnification is 35,000 times. The diameter of the unit asbestos fibers is about 2 hundredths of a micron (less than one millionth of an inch) and is about 500 times smaller than the sapphire fibers you saw. I will point out later on how important this difference in diameter is from the standpoint of reinforcing properties. (See Slide #2 - Appendix) % Many of the whiskers produced to date are extremely strong -- with tensile strengths in the millions of pounds per square inch. But their high tensile strength is not" the only reason these fibers have created so much interest. They are also light. It is really their strength in relation to their weight that has stimulated so much interest in them. This matter of fiber weight is very important when we talk about ysing the fibers as a reinforcement. Ue add fibers to a matrix material -- such as resin, ceramic or even metal -- to make a composite that is stronger than the original matrix material. This, of course, is what we mean by reinforcement. The strength of the final composite will be somewhere between the strength of the fiber we've added and the strength of the matrix material we've used. We can add strength by adding more fiber. But if the fiber is heavy we are also adding more weight. In this case v/e may wind up with a composite that has good strength -- . say a strength as good as the strongest steel. But if its weight is very close to that of steel we have gained very little -- and have proably paid too high a price for what little we have gained. In addition to their high strength to weight ratio many of these new whisker materials possess another important character istic that makes them valuable as reinforcements and that is their high modulus. o) 3 This matter of high-modulus brings us to the point where I would like to discuss some of the sirnole mechanical principles involved in fiber reinforcement and which, I hope, will give us a better insight into the factors that affect the oerformance of fiber reinforced composites. The next slide depicts a physical situation which I hope will give you some idea of what we mean when we talk about the modulus of a material. For those of you for whom this is old stuff, please bear with me. (See Slide #3 - Appendix) ' When a force is applied to a solid -- whether the solid is a piece of resin, a piece of wax, or a piece of steel -- it responds to this force by changing its shape. For simplicity, we can'visualize any material as behaving like a spring. It stretches a certain amount when it is pulled ana compresses a certain amount when it is pushed. Our picture shows a condition of stretching - or tension. When a load is applied to this spring it stretches a certain amount. The fractional increase in its length is called strain. When a load or stress is applied to the spring it strains a certain amount. When the stress is doubled the amount of strain it undergoes is also doubled. Triple the stress and you triple the strain, etc. The modulus of this spring is the amount of stress it requires to strain it by a certain amount. In other words, the modulus of a material is a measure of its stiffness. Dow let's relate this notion to a fiber-reinforced material. The next slide depicts this condition. . (See Slide - Appendix) Here we have a composite subjected to a tensile load. The applied force acting over the indicated area of the composite is the applied stress. Under this stress the material stretches -- or strains. If the fibers are strongly bonded to the matrix, they will strain right along with the matrix. The stress is shared by both the matrix and the fiber. But, if the matrix has a smaller modulus than the fiber -- and this is usually the case -- the fibers will take over most of the load. This situation is shown in the stress-strain diagram. This simple illustration depicts a most important aspect of the whole problem of fiber reinforcement. It indicates why it is desirable to have high modulus as well as high-strength fiber for reinforcement. Under a given strain, the higher the fiber modulus, the greater will be the portion of the load transferred to the fiber. This is the way we want it -- because the fiber is much stronger than the matrix. The primary function of the matrix material is simply to support the fibers and to transfer stresses to them. J u I have tabulatea tne modulus values for a few of the new whisker materials along wicn those for asbestos and glass fibers. These data are shown in the next slide, together with other important values pertaining to these fibers. ;See Slide 5 - Appendix) You will note, for example, that silicon carbide whiskers have a modulus about five times ana a strength about twice that of asbestos. Because of its high modulus, a silicon carbide whisker could take over a greater share of the load in a composite than an asbestos fiber could in the same matrix. In other words, fewer silicon carbide whiskers than asbestos fibers would be needed to take over the same amount of load. In addition, a silicon carbide whisker would support twice the stress of an asbestos fiber because of its two-fold greater strength. However, things are not all that much in favor of the silicon carbide when we look at its strengthto-weight ratio. On a pound-for-pound basis, silicon carbide would actually support only }0% more load than an asbestos fiber instead of twice the lead. The situation is even more dramatically illustrated in the case of iron whiskers. Here iron, with over twice the strength of asbestos, is 50f* weaker on a pound-f or-pound basis. I present this table of modulus values to illustrate how widely these values vary for different fibers. I now want to back up a little and again take up the discussion about the importance of the"fiber modulus to the load carrying characteristics of a composite. I think I can co this best by showing you the next slide. (See Slide #6 - Appendix) You will remember that high modulus fibers take over more load than low modulus fibers in a composite. This means that fewer high modulus fibers in a composite would be reo.uired to support a load than would be required if the composite were made of lower modulus fibers. The slide you see here shows what fraction of the load on a composite material the fibers take over. As you see, this depends on the fiber concentration as well as on the modulus of the matrix material. These curves are for fibers in a resin matrix having a modulus of 1/2 million psi -- which is a typical value for resins. The curves are based on highly idealised conditions such as perfect resin-to-fifcer bonding, perfect alignment of fibers, and pure transfer of stress from resin to fiber -- no matter how far apart the fibers are. These conditions almost certainly would not be realized in ora<*tice. Nevertheless, they do provide an insight into what relative performance wa might hope to achieve for various fiber-resin composites. You will note from these curves that the asbestos fibers*in a composite containing 10% fiber by volume would support about 305# of a load imposed on the composite under the idealized conditions I have just mentioned. At the same concentration u3 5 and in the same resin, glass fibers would support about 7c of the load. Under these conditions the glass composite would fail before the asbestos composite -- simply because the resin tould not support the greater loan imposed on it. - I now want to bring out another imoortant characteristic of fibers that affect their performance as reinforcements. This is the shape of the fiber -- or, more specifically the ratio of the length of a fiber to its diameter. The next slide shows why this is s: (See Slide #7 - Appendix/ You can imagine, first of all, that we have a fiber reinforced material that is subjected to a stress -- a tensile stress, say. This stress distributes itself throughout the whole composite. The slide you see here illustrates -- in a highly schematic way -- the stresses acting on a single fiber within the composite. Essentially, there are two stress systems acting on this fiber. One is a shear stress acting at the interface of the fiber ' and matrix and the other a tensile stress acting on the fiber cross section. We might think of the tensile stress as one tending to pull the fiber apart and the shear stress as tending to drag the fiber back against the action of the tensile stress. Under equilibrium conditions the tensile and shear forces are equal and when we go through the simple mathematics expressing this condition we find w that the tensile stress on the fiber is proportional to the inter- . I facial shear stress in the matrix multiplied by the ratio of fiber length to fiber diameter. ' It is this-relationship between matrix shear stress and fiber tensile stress that brings out the importance of the length-to-diameter ratio of the fiber. Without going into a lot of detail, the situation I have illustrated means simply this: when we use fibers in a reinforcement that are long in relation to their diameter (have a high L/D ratio) then we can use a matrix material with a lower shear strength than we could if the fibers were short in relation to their diameters. This can be a very important consideration in designing a fiber reinforced composite. In'developing a fiber reinforced material we might be forced to use a matrix material having a low shear strength. In this case we would want to use a fiber with a high length-to-diametsr ratio in order to exploit the Tull strength of our fiber. Otherwise, the . reinforcement might fail under load due to shear failure of the ' matrix long before we exploited the full strength of the fibers. As you kr.cw, the unit, or ultimate, asbestos fiber has an extremely small diameter. Although I have never seen any figure on v/nat the average length of the ultimate asbestos fiber might be, I have estimated from some of the published strength data that the ultimate length might be on the order of 100 microns -- or about 4 . u 6 thousandths of an inch. If so. this v:ouId make the length cf the ultimate asbestos fiber about 5,CIO tines its diameter. The next slide shows how this length-to-dianeter ratio compares with that fc other fibers. (See Slide #8 * Appendix) The data on the other fibers was obtained from scattered sources. One source will give one value and another will quote some other value. However, I have chosen values that seemed typical to me. If each of these fibers were used as a reinforcement in some kind of matrix material and we wanted to exploit their full strength -- that is, we wanted the fiber to fail'under load before the matrix material failed in shear -- then the minimum shear stre of the matrix material we would have to use is that shown in the last column. We can see from these figures that asbestos fibers, if they could be reduced to their ultimate dimensions in a reinforceme would impose very small shear strength requirements on the matrix material. Graphite and sapphire whiskers, on the other hand, would have to be incorporated with a high shear-strength matrix in order to fully realize their strength potentials. There is yet another factor concerning fiber-fineness that is important. This has to do with the stresses that are built up around the ends of fibers imbedded in a matrix. * The next slide illustrates what I mean. . (See Slide 9 - Appendix) The fiber you see is a sapphire whisker imbedded in a birefringent plastic. The plastic, with the fiber in it, is stressed in the fiber direction. Because of its birefringent nature, the plastic produces different colors (interference fringes in those areas where the stresses are different. The blue areas you see near the ends of the fiber represent areas of high stress and the yellow coloration along most of the length of the fiber reoresents about half this stress. The bluntness of the ends of the fiber accounts for most of the high stress concentration at these points. This means that composites reinforced with fibers having large diameters and blunt ends could fall under load much earlier than small diameter fibers because of the high stress concentrations produced at their ends. Also, you may notice that the high stresses at the ends of the fibers extend a short distance along the fiber length. For fibers with a small length-to-dianeter ratio this would mean, that the high stresses would extend over an appreciable fraction of the length of the fiber. This, obviously, would also be bad from the standpoint of reinforcement. There is good reason for all the efforts being expended these days to develop high-strength, high-modulus fibers for L` 7 reinforcing purposes. Whoever can cot.? up with a composite t.-.at has all the strength properties of the best of our present metals but with only about a third or a fourth the v,'eight would be in a position to reap tremendous economic rewards. As an examnle of what can be achieved in the way of fi'oer-reinforced materials, I 50>igive you tne following figures: the theoretical tensile strength of a sapphire-whisker reinforced resin containing resin by volume is about 1.4. million psi -- or about four or five times the strength of the finest steel. And this composite would be only about a fourth as heavy as steel. Using asbestos fibers opened to their ultimate dimensions, a similar analysis shows that a theoretical tensile strength of about 700,000 psi is possible; -- and, again, the weight of the composite would be about a fourth that of an equal volume of steel. * It's doubtful that fiber-reinforced composites will ever achieve these theoretical strengths. But there are reports that composites with strengths well above the 300,000 psi strength of fine steel and with densities well below that of steel have already been developed. Cost and difficulty of fabrication are two of the main reasons why quantity production of such composites is being held back. The current cost of whiskers and other high strength synthetic fibers is very high. The next slide shows you some typical cost figures for such fibers. (See Slide f/10 - Appendix) * However, as you can see from this table, it is anticipated that . within the next ten years the cost of these fibers will drop by an appreciable amount. On a cost-per-strength basis these fibers in the future may well present a serious challenge to asbestos fibers. Asbestos shouldn't have to take a back seat to any of these synthetic fibers. V.'hen reduced to its ultimate dimensions, asbestos has a tensile strength estimated to be about 1,500,000 psi, a length-to-diameter ratio that is .probably much higher than any of the synthetic fibers now have or will ever have, and, finally, a modulus that comoares favorably with many of the synthetics. 3ut the exoloitation*of these excellent properties is going to take research -- vigorous and imaginative research; the kind of research now.being done by the producers of synthetic fibers. Ana if v/e are going to comoete with them in the field of reinforcements, we are going to have to learn a lot about the nature of the interaction of asbestos fibers with various matrix materials -- the principles that determine the bonding of asbestos fibers to other materials. I think the rewards will be worth the effort. Joseph P. V.'ronski AI r Mi D ) r i i i 1 *' J ^ /'!

P.jay Flocken, legal counsel, presented a renort entitled 'Some Aspects of the Legal Troblens on Asbestos Publicity: Grounds for Possible Libel Action and Standing to Sue', i r. Flocken referred to a recent example of statements made on a radio broadcast and then discussed the general problems involved in bringing an action for label where the product or manufactured article lias been named but no particular manufacturer has been named. Counsel discussed briefly the New York Court of Appeals* rulings in Drue Research Corn, v. Cvrtis Pub. Co., 7 W.Y.2d 435 and Harwood Tham. Co. v. Nat. Proadc..sting Co., 9 ia,'.2d 460. In conclusion, it was stated that v/ithou" either a specific and direct reference to a particular Plaintiff or necessarily implying plaintiff's fraud or deceit in putting a danger ous product upon the market, the probability of success of a libel suit in the circumstances referred to would be difficult to assure. 5. Ix. A.C. Steele, Asbestos Corporation, Ltd., presented an inter esting report, on behalf of the asbestos fibre producers, concerning supply and demand for raw asbestos fibre, he mentioned the current shirring strike, which if long continued, could have a most adverse effect on mine operations. 6. Or. J.II. l/olfsie, Corporate lodical Director, United States .lub ber Company, was the Guest Speaker, and his subject was "Asbestos and Health". Dr. 'Jolfsie referred to the alarming information that has appear ed in the lay press concerning the alleged deleterious effects of as bestos on the health of the public. Apropos of this, some of the highlights of the present state of knowledge on the effects of asbes tos on health were reviewed. Dr. V/olfsie read excerpts from certain news releases, and said that he could find many weaknesses in the statements made. Dr. v/olfsie described the development of a preventive medical program to protect the health of employees from possible adverse ef fects of exposure to asbestos, and gave a brief account of the devel opment of the present preventive health program in the United Stacos Rubber Company for its asbestos employees. An extensive question and answer period followed Dr. l/olfsie's talk, and our members were most appreciative of the privilege to hear him. _ 7.

A ''CERTIFICATE OF AT: ARC IAT I OH" in the fom of a Scroll was pre sented to i'r. John A. -iettes, Jr., on behalf of the members, by President Hrown. i'r. Dettes, better known as "Jack" to his many friends in the as bestos industry, is planning to retire in July i960 from his posi tion as i'anager, Asbestos Textile Division, Raybestos-i anhattan, Inc. Jack Hettes is a past president of the Institute, and has served it in many other capacities as well during his more than twenty years of faithful attendance at our meetings. In accepting the Scroll, Jack expressed his great appreciation for it and also for the most enjoyable private cocktail party held in his honor on Wednesday evening, June 8th. Jack stressed the value of the Institute as an aid to management training, and pointed out that getting to know each other is most important, as it builds confidence. lie mentioned that the Institute has been of great value in bringing the raining industry in close contact with the asbestos textile industry, to their mutual advanteg*. As a suggestion. Jack believes that our industry should spend more tine pronoting new uses for asbestos, and less time in defensive tactics against competitors. Immediately after his retirement, about July 14th, Jack and his rost attractive wife, Helen, will leave for an extended auto trip to the far v.'est. VJe will greatly miss his counsel and advice on Institute natters, his leadership in our industry, and the op-ortunity for personal contact with him. Our members wish him a most happy'retirement I 9. The next meeting of the Institute will be held at The Homestead, Hot Springs, Va., on October Gth and 7th, (Arrival Cct. 5th). This is the Annual ieeting, and The Homestead was selected as being a delightful spot to bring the wives! Reservations are re quired thirty days in advance. So, plan to bring ycur wife, and help to make this Annual i>eting the Biggest and Best ever! 10. There being no further business to come before this mseting, on motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to adjourn. The luncheon that followed.the meeting was made more enjoyable by presence cf several wives as our guests. Respectfully submitted. H.B.

IJelson's unavoidable absence the intended 'demonstration of the 40-2 portable dust counter was postponed. . There was some discussion on the merits of this counter and the con sensus was that it would be of narticular value in monitoring and puick checking operating areas after correlating with the GreenberrSmith Impinger. ' Environmental Health Survey Dr. Lewis J. Cralley rerorted that the survey is progressing on schedule and that they are nov* in the areas of Friction Materials, Asbestos Cement Products and Insulation Materials. Control of Dust by Treating Stock Reports were given on the results obtained in control of dust by the amplication of oils and other solutions both to blended stock and to asbestos fiber.

The Specificity of Asbestos Bodies and b. The Biologic Effects of Trace Substances Associated with Chrysotile Asbestos.* 1 2 INTRODUCTION Thomson (1) found that about 307# of the people that had died in hospitals in Capetown (500 consecutive autopsies) had "asbestos bodies" in the lungs. The same author (2) found a similar preva lence of "asbestos bodies" among the hospital deaths in f'iami, Flori da. Cauna, Totten and Gross (3) examined the lungs of 100 non-selected hospital deaths for which autopsy permission had been ob tained, and found that 407* of these had "asbestos bodies" in their lungs. Ian Webster (4) recently reported a 477* prevalence in Johannesburg. There is, at present, a reasonable doubt that "asbestos bodies" are specific indicators of the inhalation of asbestos fibers. Such bodies have been found in coal miners and talc workers where they have been called "pseudo-asbestos bodies". Recently Davis (5) and Collet (6) have demonstrated the intracellular development of "asbes tos bodies" secondary to amorphous material. Asbestos occupies an anomalous position in its ability to produce lung damage, causing diffuse fibrosis and possibly also lung cancer. It is anomalous inasmuch as no other silicate has been shown to pos sess this ability. The fibrosis encountered in talcosis is limited to the tremolite variety, which is asbestos-like. On the other hand the pneumoconiosis associated with the mining of mica (another sili cate) has not been investigated experimentally, and the fibrogenic activity of the dusts coexisting with the mica has not been evaluat ed. Other silicates may evoke either minimal or relatively slight inflammotory changes, and are incapable of producing lung cancer. Inasmuch as certain polycyclic hydrocarbons and trace metals known to be potent cancer-producing agents have been demonstrated in asbes tos, particularly nickel, chromium and benzopyrene, the possibility exists that the trace metals and/or the polycyclic hydrocarbons may be solely responsible for the observed pathogenicity. This possibility is supported by two findings: 1. The report of Braun and Truan (7) which indicated that the prevalence of lung cancer among Canadian asbestos miners was no greater than that of the general population. This was in contrast to the report of .Doll (8) which indicated a greatly increased risk of lung cancer among British workers exposed to asbestos dust while fabricating the asbestos. 2. In a recent investigation in the laboratory of the Industrial Hygiene Foundation, lung cancers were found in rats exposed for 18 months to high concentrations of chrysotile dust.(9) Because rats exposed to chrysotile dust by other investigators failed to develop lung cancer, there is a good probability that the chrysotile dus~ that produced lung cancer was significantly different from that v/bich. did not have this effect. It is possible that this difference is o Industrial Hygiene Foundation of Anerica, Inc ) 2 * caused by a coating of nickel steel alloy allied to the asbestos dust particles during the continuous hammer rilling process used for rendering the dust respirable. This nethod has not been used by -previous investigators, nickel has been found capable of reducing lung cancer in trace amounts. Although asbestos and glass are both silicates, the industrial health experience with workers of these two naterials lias I een vast ly different. No pulmonary disease has been reported imerkers ex posed to glass dust. Nevertheless, the dust of filamentous glass has been labeled as highly dangerous in the lay press by association witn asbestos. It is a fact that although the effect o* flake glass dust on the lungs of animals has been reported, no similar study has been made of the dust of filamentous glassviiich does not have anssociated resin or filler. TRPTX'SAL Phase 1. It is proposed to examine the response of animals lungs to differ ent inorganic fibrous materials of contrasting chemical coi position, and to characterize the differences and similarities in the response. Thase 2. It is proposed to investigate the influence of trace minerals and polycyclic hydrocarbons (i.e., benzopyrene) associated with chrysotile ore or the subsequent processing on the bng-term response of the lung to the dust. Another objective of this phase is to obtain definitive data t>n the long-term effect of dust derived from filamentous glass upon the lungs. Three varieties of such glass dust will be investigated.: 1. with the phenol-fornaldehyde-type of binder 2. with the binders usCd in textiles 3. without binder. Phase 3. A comparative study of the three rain types of asbestos dust (chrysotile, amosite and crocidolite) is proposed to attempt to pinpoint the cause of biological activity - i.e., whether due to silicates per se or the associated trace metals or hydrocarbons. Positive findings would be a basis for identifying any possible health hazards and for suggesting specific engineering or other process controls to eliminate such hazards. 1 ATHRIaLS ,uT) i cT,!OD Phase 1. The following fibrous naterials will be reduced to respirable par ticle size (3i-<) and will he injected in anounts of 3.5 mg. to 30 mg. as aaueous suspensions: 1. chrysotile dust (Prepared by milling in Wright mill and with demonstrated carcinogenic potential) 2. Chrysotile dust (unbilled synthetic)* 3. Aluminum nitride 4. tricalcium Phosphate (filamentous) . 5. fibrous glass a. with rhenol-formaldehyde-type binder u Industrial ifygiene Foundation of Arerica, Inc \ - 3- 5. b. with binder used for textiles c. without binder . 6. magnesium hydroxide (brucite) 7. r ineral wool _ 0. 2inc oxide (filamentous) Synthetic chrysotile has been prepared at idlon Institute by ,-)r. William Granquist. Electron photomicrographs show the charac teristic tubular crystals* These materials will be injected intratracheally into hamsters un der ether anesthesia. Trevious exrerience has demonstrated that as bestos bodies will form in response to chrysotile dust within five months. The animals will therefore be held for six months and then killed. Asbestos bodies will be sought in lung juice as well as in the lung tissues. The lungs will be expanded with buffered formalin under a head of 10 cm. of water. 31ocks removed from these lungs will be sectioned at 6/^ after paraffin impregnation. These sections will be stained by different methods and photographed sequentially to provide means for studying more completely the tissue reaction to these various materials. Search for the so-called asbestos bodies will be aade using routinely stained sections, and sections stained for iron. In addition, unstained cleared sections will be examined under dark- field conditions for asbestos bodies. The latter glow when examined in this manner* ' The differnece in tissue reaction between the synthetic chrysotile dust and that which is known to be fibrogenic as well as carcinogenic will point to the contribution to pathogenicity made by one or more of the various trace substances which may be associated with chryso tile asbestos dust as a result of processing. The development of "asbestos bodies", better termed Ferruginous bodies, to dusts other than asbestos would point to the non-specific ity of these structures and to the desirability of collecting such "asbestos bodies" from human lungs in order to subject them to elec tron-probe analysis. Such analysis could give information in regard to the chemical nake-un of the dust responsible for the development of the Ferruginous ("asbestos" body)* Phase 2* In order to explore the etiologic role of the various components of chrysotile asbestos in the production of lung fibrosis and lung can cer, six series of rats will be injected intratracheally with the following: ~- 1. chrysotile dust known to be carcinogenic (9) 2* synthetic chrysotile 3* synthetic chrysotile plus nickel 4, synthetic chrysotile plus chrome 5. synthetic chrysotile plus nickel, chrome and benzopyrene 6* nickel alone or with carbon as carrier 7* chrome alone or with carbon as carrier 8. benzopyrene with carbon as carrier These rats will be held for two years and then killed. The lungs will be prepared for examination and sections cut in the same manner as in Phase 1* ' ( ) Industrial Ifygiene Foundation of America, Inc. -4- Three other scries of rats will be injected intratracheally with the following dusts: 1. filar.entous glass with rihcnol-fomaldehyde-tyre binder 2. filamentous glass with the binders used for textiles 3. filamentous glass without binder. These animals will also be held for two years and then killed. The lungs will be prepared and studied ?.s in the preceding groups, with special attention to asbestos bodies in lung tissues or juice. The number of animals per series will be such that there will be no doubt regarding the statistical significance of the results. Phase 3, SUrTLEI'HlTARY PK0FOSAL (Note: The following supplement has been added to the original proposal of April 15, 1966). ijvrncv3U"Tioi: "ecause of the interest of a number of companies in biologic inves tigations similar to those planned for chrysotile asbestos, but using instead, amosite and corcidolite, an additional investigation is pro posed to be undertaken concurrently with the one proposed April 15, 1966. . As in the proposal dealing with chrysotile asbestos, the purpose of the presently proposed concurrent investigation .rs to attempt to pin point the cause of the biologic activity of all three main types of asbestos dusts: whether this lies in the silicates per se, in the associated trace metals, or in the associated hydrocarbons. 3ecause neither anosite nor corcidolite is available as a pure syn thetic material, the investigation proposed for these two types of asbestos is necessarily different from that proposed for chrysotile. Nevertheless, in order to make the investigation complete, it is de sirable to include also chrysotile in the new investigation since different methods are involved* Inasmuch as the biologic activity of asbestos seems to have two components: (a.) inflammatory--responsible for asbestosis, and (b,) neoplastic--responsible for lung cancer and mesothelioma, it is ad visable to investigate both of them. This can readily be accom plished within the four year span contemplated for this investigation In order to determine whether the biologic activity of asbestos re sides in the silicate, in .the associated trace metals, or in the as sociated hydrocarbons, attenpts will be made to remove the trace met als and the hydrocarbons from their respective silicates and to com pare the biologic activities of such "purified" asbestos samples from which these associated materials have been removed. rvrrsAL As a prerequisite to any biologic testing (insofar as the lungs are concerned), it is necessary to reduce the asbestos to a respirable particle sire. This will be done in the following manner: the :*iosite and crocidolite will be ball-milled and then fed into con tire.-jus hammer mills modified from a design by Holt and Young (10). The ` dusts emerging from the hammer mills will be collected in electro- ' () ) Industrial hygiene Foundation of Arerica, Inc. - 5- static precipitators. This re thod has been used successfully by us to reduce chrysotile asbestos to a particle size, 707, of which was respirable. A sufficient quantity of finely divided chrysotile dust is available for the purposes of this ir.vestigat ion. All three types of asbestos dust vi 11 be deprived of the greater portion or of all of their hydrocarbon content in one of two ways: 1. by continuous extraction with various solvents 2, by heating beyond the decomposition point of the hydrocarbonsThe trace metals will be reroved from the three types of asbestos dust by treatment with aqua regia followed by treatment with liOT/i (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid, a chelating agent). One batch of each type of asbestos dust will be subjected to both procedures, i.e., removal of trace metals and removal of hydrocar bons. Accordingly, each of the three types of asbestos dust vi 11 consist of five batches, each with a different composition: 1. the unaltered dust as collected in the precipitators 2. the dust minus the hydrocarbons (heat-treated), here, it is anticipated that there may also have been some change in the chemical structure of the asbestos through loss of some molecules of water of hydration, 3. the dust minus the hydrocarbons (solvent extraction). Here, it is anticipated that the extraction r.ay not be 1007, complete. 4. the dust minus trace metals 5. the dust minus trace metals then subjected to solvent extrac tion to remove most of the hydrocarbons. In order to investigate the inflammatory component of the van ous (15) batches of asbestos dust, these will be injected intratracheal ly into rats and hamsters. The lungs of these animals are expected to show definitive changes within one year after the intrapulr.onary introduction of the dusts. In order to explore the lung cancer aspect of the neoplastic com ponent of the biologic activity of asbestos dust, additional rats will be injected with the sane batches of dust as above and allowed to live out their lives. Most of the animals, however, will have died before the end of the third year. The other (nesothelionatous) aspect of the above neoplastic compo nent will be investigated by injecting the 15 different batches of asbestos dust within the pleural cavity of rats and hamsters and al lowing -them to live out their lives, iost of these animals will al so have died before the end of the third year. For the investigation of the inflammatory component of asbestos dust, a large enough number of animals will be put on test to all'"* sampling at intervals throughout the yegr and still have an adequate number remaining to represent the 12 nonth old lesion, A tabular summary of the protocol is attached, , REPORTS Tefinite trends in regard to the inflammatory component are crpc^t- ed to be demonstrable in animals that will be killed prior to the 12 month period (as indicated under footnote (b) in the Tabular Summary) ' An interim report covering the findings in these 420 animals will, therefore, be issued at the end of the first year. Because few, if any, tumors are expected to develop prior to 2<- months, no interim report on the neoplastic component will be issued until the end of the third year. The final report covering the * Industrial Hygiene Foundation of Anerica, Inc 6- entire investigation will be issued toward the end of the fourth year. This report wall probably be in .the forr of several manu scripts suitable for publication. _ surr.R vision Research will be performed under the direct supervision of Dr. Paul Gross, director of the Foundation's Research Laboratory. The Foundation's studies on asbestos presently are being conducted under partial suprort of the U.S. Government through a National In stitutes of Health grant and a contract with the U.S. Tublic Health Service, Division of Occupational Health (Dr. Lewis J.

The Technical Committee was requested to review and confirm the weight values of metallic and plain tapes, for reprinting in the revised third edition of the Hand Book. These values are presently shown in Tables Q and R respectively. The Committee made a detailed study of this and recommended the following: To recommend the wight values for decimal tapes as given in Military SnecJ^nation M11-C-3053D for .010", .015", .020" .025"* add .OjU" since the industry usually maxes tnese tapes to conform to the Military Specification and also since there is very minor deviation of the weight values in the Military* Specification from those in the current Hand Book. To confirm the present values of 1/32", 1/16", 1/6" and I/'-" plain tapes and the present values of 1/16", 1/8", and l/li" metallic tapes as accurant since all the weight values of these come within the tolerable limits of industry's values. To delete 3/16" plain and 3/16" metallic form the Hand Book since they are not popular sizes. Industry weight.values were found almost identical to Hand Book values with exception^ 1/32" plain and the variation here was less than 10j as shown in the appended table. Cohformance of Hil-C-1053D with Hand Book is also show in the table. The chairman will send e letter with the above recommendation on tapes to H. E. Sunbury with direction that he send this iiiformation to Hovasd Bftla who is editing the Hand Book. J 1 o .) Mil-C-103l6B. Ho action to date has been made by the eeney on issuing an interim specificati&n correcting the thickness vaVtrs. The last communication from the agency vas on October 29, 1965 si vhich time the agency agreed to make this correction as requests i by W. Haaskant , Chairman of the Technical Ccmittee at that tire. A follow up letter to the agency was made May b, 1966 by H. Mcar: The committee found that the thickness values in Mil-C-10316A aiv> correct but the values in Mil-C-103163 are incorrect.

The committee haai reason to believe they would be approved and a favorable report vas given. The following week the chairman received a letter from Dr. Scroggie1s committee making many changes in both specifications. The committee felt that making further revisions would not accomplish very much and that it would be more effective to allow representatives of A-li Committee to resolve the differences with Dr. Scroggie. Accordingly, on March 3, 1966 a meeting vas held in ifew York between A-b representives and Dr. Scroggie and at this meeting the differences were resolved. On the basis of the resolved differences, the Technical Committee drafted the bth Draft of D315 tape and the 5th Draft of Dl571Bloth. Concurrently Mr. P. 0. Hicodeaus revised D2100 on electrical insulation and submitted it with D315 amd D1571. These were satisfactory editorily so fat as Dr. Scroggie's committee was concerned, but a temporary set-back resulted when the editor of ASTI! took exceptions to these three specifications. Affer explanation and assistance from Paul Smith of ASTM and P. 0. Nicodenus Chairman of A-b Committee, the three specifications were approved with very minor changes. On May 17, a letter from Paul Smith advised the chairman that these three would appear in the 1966 preprint~of ASTM. On June 1, 1966, a copy of the preprint was received and only minor changes were noted. Letter ballots are now out to all members of D-13 Committee on these three specifications. Results of the ballots have not been received. 2 () Coraittee members were requested to proof read these specification; and report to the chairman before July 1st. anv typographical errors or discrepancies. The chairman is to report these to Paul Smith if any are found. Hovrard Bain met briefly with the committee and agreement was nac-~ that we would convey information on the status of tapes in the Hand Book within the mext two weeks and that he would use information in the preprint on tapes, cloth, and electrical insulation for setting up the revised Hand Book. Revision of ASTM Specification - D1918 Asbestos Content At the February 1966 meeting the 1st. Draft on D1918 was made. Since that meeting two more Drafts have been made bv corresponds.*, the 2nd. and 3rd. Drafts. At the*resent meeting the 3rd. Draft was reviewed and minor changes and corrections made. This will now issue as the bth. Draft dated June 9, 1966 and copies will be sent to Dr. Scroggie's S-6 Editorial Committee and P. 0. Micodemus' A-U Committee with the request that they review and respond In time for committee discussion at our next meeting August 18 and ICC; Revision of ASTM Specification D299 Yarn A start was made on this specification and approximately half of it was covered. The chairman requested that each comitte* member I continue this specification and also 0375 roving ana send in their s comments on how these two should be revised. The several coments will be merged to fora the 1st. Draft of D299 and 1st. Draft of D375 and these will be used as the basis for further discussion. Next Meeting of Technical Committee Since there are six more specifications to revise, the committee felt that progress on these would be too slow with one day meetings at the regular ATI meetings, especially in view of other items which come up. Accordingly the next meeting was set up as a two day meeting August 18 and 19th at ASTM headquarters in Philadelphia. At that meeting a decision will be made as to whether we will meet one day ahead et our October meeting. The connittee wishes to acknowledge and thank Paul Smith of ASTM for the contribution he has made ih revising these specifications. J. D.

The full text of his report is attached to these minutes. 6. Mr. Howard E. Shearer, Industrial Development Coordinator, FMC Corp. American Viscose Division, Marcus Hook, Pa., addressed the meeting. His subject, ''Some Fiber Relationships of Interest to the Asbestos Textile Manufacturer'*, was most informative. Assisted by photomicrographic slides, Hr. Shearer explained the various steps in the manufacture of rayon and distinguishing features of the many de scriptions of staple produced by the American Viscose Division. It was indicated that the uniform diameters and lengths of a crimped rayon with a serrated cross section; and its cohesive and processing properties enhanced by the presence of a delustrant and special lu bricating finish, make such a staple especially attractive as a car rying fiber for spinning of asbestos. President Drown expressed to Mr. Shearer our appreciation for his fine talk. ' 7. The committee reports were given by the respective chairmen as listed below.

President Brown, retiring president, was presented with a hand some ATMOS clock on behalf of the members, by f!r. Teele, in apprecia tion of his leadership of the Institute during the past two >ears. President Brown expressed his thanks for the gift u th aprropriate remarks, and said that it had been a most pleasurable and worthwhile experience to have had the opportunity to serve the Institute as its President. He thanked the members and the Board of Governors for the fine cooperation given him during his tenure of office. 13. President Drown commented on the fact that so many of the mem bers had brought their respective wives to this neeting (about 30) and remarked that the ladies had contributed a great deal to the so cial success and good fellowship so evident in the two clays preceding this General Meeting. 14. President Brown announced that the next regular meeting of the Institute would be held on February 9-10, 1967, at the Cl*ZUr*Y HILL INi'F, Cherry Hill, ii.J. The Cherry Will Inn is well-known for its new and exceptionally fine accommodations. It is located near Cam den, N.J., just across the river from Philadelphia. It is convenient by TAXI to Philadelphia's trains and airports, and also is close to the New Jersey Turnpike for those who drive their cars to the meeting. 15.

Treasurer K Tiote corriTTE: rttvrt The year 1966 has been a difficult one for the asbestos fibre produc ers in that asbestos fibre shipments were interrupted for a five week period in lay and June by a stevedore strike at the St. Lawrence River ports. Secondly, a strike of the Canadian railroad workers oc curred in the latter part of August and. early September for a ten day period. Inflation is of increasing concern on the Canadian scene with labour assuming more militant tendencies and demanding higher and higher wages. New asbestos nines under development include the Clinton Creek operation of Cassiar which is scheduled for production in 1968. The Asbestos Hill development of Asbestos Corrcr ation in the Ungava region of Quebec is scheduled for production in 1970. These two mining operations will produce additional asbestos cemait fibres to supply the growing market in this field where the demand is increasing throughout the world. Countries in the Far Hast and in South America continue to expand their production of asbestos cement products with the requirement for asbestos fibres. The demand for r.sbestos fibres in brake linings particularly in the United States continues at a high level and this demand is expected to continue at the same strength providing the automobile industry continues to pro duce at a record pace. Also, the many miscellaneous uses for asbes tos fibre continue in good demand and it is encouraging to note a broader usage of asbestos fibre from year to year. Production of asbestos fibre in Russia continues to exceed that of Canada although sales outside the borders of that country are limited to Europe, India and Japan at a rate estimated at 175,000 to 200,000 tons per year. Difficult times are being experienced by T. i N. in Southern Rhodesia whereby the asbestos fibre from that country is be ing embargoed in many countries of the world aid we see no early ger mination to the problems related thereto. The economy of North Amer ica continues at a high level and no indication of a slowdown in de mand for asbestos fibre is yet apparent although it is expected that the continuation of the tight money policy in the U.S. and Canada will have its effects in the near term. The currency problems of many countries in South America has lessened during the past two years and this has resulted in a higher demand for asbestos fibre in many of the South American countries. The economy of Europe contin ues at a high level with the exception of the United Kingdom where severe problems indicate difficult times for the year 1967. Certain ly, the problems in the United Kingdom will affect the asbestos in dustry in the near term. The demand for asbestos fibre in the Far East is continuing to grow at a rapid rate with the increasing pro duction of asbestos cement products. It is expected that these mar kets will continue to grow at a ranid rate providing currency prob lems can be solved and providing that external forces do not disturb the normal political situations. _ Concern has been registered regarding the possibility of asbestos as a health hazard such that it is pertinent to nention that the Quebec Asbestos lining Association has embarked on a broad medical study which viill involve the expenditure of substantial sums of money. Three very competent medical personnel have been retained to conduct basic studies on asbestos fibre from the standpoint of its effect on the health of human beings. Sufficient information is not yet at hand to provide the basis for any publication and it will be some time before such is available. W.W.

The Committee was impressed with its simplicity of operation and its versatility. It is portable and can be carried around with ease, and requires no special training to operate. Maintenance is practically nil. By a simple adjustment the range of particle size to be counted can be changed. It also has the advantage that it gives instant and contin uous readings which, with the addition of a recorder, makes it possi ble to set the equipment un at a given station and monitor the atmos pheric conditions for extended periods of time* The present cost of the instrument is $3,800. plus $800. for the re corder. . It was suggested, for consideration, that the A.T.I. purchase one which could be rented or loaned to individual member companies.

All nenber companies were present except Ii.X. Porter Co. and Tallman-JcCluskey Fabrics, Inc. As a result of a direct mail campaign to a selected list of colleges and universities with Engineering Departments, we have had some re sponse in the matter of interest in using our A.T.I. Exhibit in their schools. The display has been sent to Alfred University School of Ceramics at Alfred, New York, assigned for the fall semester until February 1st, 1967, We have tentative assignment of the exhibit for Stevens Insti tute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey, from February 1st, 1967 to Jure 1st, 1967. We have possible interest from South Dakota School of Nines for some later date. At an appropriate time,in 1967, we will send out a similar, direct mail letter to the remaining rortion of the mailing list of universi ties. A report was made that a small quantity of Japanese made Asbestos Cloth has been reported sold in the midwest area as low as 46q per lb. This situation is being wat* ed carefully. Final decisions on all copy has been made for publishing the Third Edition of the Asbestos Textile Handbook. We have coordinated in the Handbook all cf the ASTM. specificati ons revised ard approved by ASIM foe our publication. Contract has been let for publication of 12,500 copies to Confort & Company, New York City, with an approximate six weeks* delivery prom ised as of October 17th, 1966. The Sales Pro motion Committee agreed to recommend to the Board of Governors sending a cony of the A.T.I. Handbook to all important en gineering school libraries. Discussion took place as to the advisability of expanding our inter member reporting of business, levels of production and sales of indi vidual companies to supplement Caruso reports. No decision was con cluded. . A supplementary meeting was held with all interested A.T.I. members concerning recent adverse publicity of asbestos products as written in Chemical Week Magazine. Members of the Asbestos Fibre Committee and the Technical Committee joined vath the Sales Promotion Committee in this disajssion. Sitting as a Committee Of The Whole, it was felt advisable to register with Chemical Week our concern of their irre sponsible article in the September 10th, 1966, issue. J-inutes: SALES rRCVCTION COf^JITT.

Sunbnsy - Asbestos- Textile Institute SUBJECTS DISCUSSED; Revision of ASTM Specifications In order to give an intelligent report of the meeting on Thursday, October 6th., it is necessary to describe the activities of the committee since the June meeting. Following the June meeting, the coisaittee reviewed and reported discrepancies in the 1966 ASTM preprint on D315, D1571, and D2100. These were reported to Paul Smith, ASTM. In the meantime a conflict in use of terms was noted wherein the word "Type" was used in two places to imply different meanings. In D315 and 01571 Types 1 to 5 designate the various kinds of yam that can be used. In C210C Types 11, 17, and 71 designate the magnetic rating of various asbestos textiles. In order to avoid the conflict it was recommended that the word "Class" be used in designating the kinds of yarn used in 0315 and D1571 and the word "Type" be retained in D2100. In order to give all members of the committee an opportunity to express confirmation of the change, a letter ballot was mailed by the chairman to each member with the request to vote for or against the change. The response was 100? for the change. This information was relayed to Paul Smith for proper changes in the ASTM draft and also to Bill Hough and Howard Bain for proper insertion in the new A.T.I. Handbook. Thia,completed the committee's work in assisting Sales Promotion with the A.T.I. Handbook.- Copies of the Uth. Draft of D1910, as set up at the June meeting were distributed to all members and a copy to Dr. Scroggie. Comments and re commended changes on this draft were received from Dr. Scroggie in July. Copies of his comments were sent to?all members prior to the August 18th. and 19th. meeting. -1- uJ Meeting of the Technical Comittee August 18th. - 19th., 1966 at ASTM Headquarters, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania IM ATTZh'DANCZi Irvin Barnett - Johns-Manville Corporation W.

Bill Hough, chairman of the Sales Promotion Committee met with the committee that day and his assistance was greatly appreciated. On Friday Ausust 19th., Dr. Scroggie met with the contnittee and with his assistance a better arrangement of the specification was formulated. Time did not permit at this meeting .the consideration of the various equations involved. . Following the August meeting several exchanges by correspondence have been made within the committee and with Dr. Scroggie on the equations involved in D1918, ^ . At the present meeting on October 6th., consideration was given to D1918 and so far as the editorial script is concerned, agreement seems to have been reached between the committee and Dr. Scroggie's committee. The equations are yet to be resolved. Due to the urgency of completing the revision of the specifications, the committee felt that an intermediate meeting should be held. Decision was to have this on Thursday and Friday, December 15th. and 16th., 1966 at ASTM Headquarters, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. J. D.

Mr. Dewey Childers of H.K.Porter discussed the present status of a test procedure he is trying to develop to determine the spicule content of milled textile grade fibers. So far, results have been inconclusive. 3y the time of the next meeting he hopes to knot/ definitely whether his apparatus will function well enough to do the job he wants. 2. Members of the Fiber Testing Committee representing both fiber producers and consumers plan to attend the next meeting of ASTM Sub Committee A-J on Asbestos Textiles which meets in New York City the 19th of this month. One of the items scheduled to be- taken up at this meet ing is the revision of ASTM test procedure D-1118, which is the procedure for determining the magnetic rating of asbestos. Since the magnetic rating test presented in our test manual is patterned very closely after the ASTIi procedure, the Comnittee feels we should follow any proposed changes in the ASTI! procedure very closely to see if the proposed changes might suggest any modifications to our own procedure. Results of the ASTTI deliberations will be reported to Committee members at the next meeting.3 3. The Committee discussed a situation that arose occasionally in which test values for fiber openness or surface area reported by a mine sometimes differed u) appreciably from the values found by the fiber pur chaser on the sane lot of fiber. It was agreed that this problem arose when the miner made his tests on fiber before it was packed in shipping bags and the purchaser made his tests on packed fiber removed from the bag. The effect of packing makes a big difference in fiber openness test values. This situation emphasized the need for both the miner and the purchaser to condition and prepare the fibers in the same way before any tests are made on then. At present the best procedure we have for this is outlined in the first test in our test manual under Method of Sampling and Preparation. Mr. Gay Brink of Asbestos Corporation briefly reviewed for the Committee the results of the recent meeting of ASTM Committee D-30 on Inorganic and High Modulus Fibers. This is the committee established a few years ago to handle standards and test procedures on fibers and whiskers made of such materials as boron, carbon, aluminum oxide and other materials as well as on asbestos.

Gallagher moved that the Ruggles amplication be denied by reason of a technicality (our :By-Laws do not provide any classification that would be aprlicabie) however, as Mr. Ruggles is well and favorably known thruout our in dustry, that he be extended an invitation to attend our meetings as a special courtesy. This notion was seconded by Mr. Hough. So voted. Some discussion ensued as to the desirability of amending our By-Laws to broaden the classes of membership, but no action was taken. 14.

Further, that Legal Coun sel should attempt to set up a meeting with McGraw-Hill and/or Cheni* cal Week at which he, accompanied by three representatives of A.T.I., could register a verbal protest.

Suggested that it would be advisable for spinners to check with their sources of supply about forward requirements for special grades of spinning fibres. 5. In lieu of a prepared talk. Legal Counsel T.Jay FlocJen asked j.f there were any questions from the floor. This proved to be an inter esting innovation - quite a fev; questions were asked - and Mr. Flock- en replied to each at considerable length. The success of this ini tial trial justifies its repetition by Counsel Flocken at some future meeting. '~ . 6. Mr. Harold R. Lynch, Davis & Furber Machine Co., North Andover, Mass., gave a Technical Talk entitled: "Researching a Fresh Approach for the Carding of Asbestos Fibers, and the Promising New Rubber De sign for Condensing Asbestos Roving." ' Mr. Lynch said that his company had developed a carding machine for synthetic fibers that vould rroduce more pounds per hour than wocle.n or worsted cards. Now have 275 units in operation on synthetic fiber Believe they have basic concent of right approach for asbestos finer, and his company proposes to give it top priority in their development and engineering work. Some details are still to be settled such aa type of card clothing, speeds, number of rolls, doffers, etc., Did o Minutes - General Meeting - continued: J Page -3- encounter difficulty on trial runs of new card using asbestos fiber - experiments are being conducted at both North Andover, Jiass., and Charlotte, N.C. Has one report of a very successful spinning test at a southern asbestos plant. His company solicits advice and coop eration of asbestos plants to help bring this carding machine devel opment to the most successful conclusion possible, and for the mutu al benefit of all. The second part of I-'r, Lynch's talk was devoted to the Rub Aprons used for dondensing the asbestos roving as it comes from the carding machine. The cost of the chrome tanned leather aprons is high there is a limited supply of suitable bull-hides and.these have to be bought at auction in Spain or other parts of the European conti nent; none are available elsewhere. Each hide has to be individual ly inspected before purchase. While price for chrome leather aprons is high, there is virtually no profit to Davis & Furber Co. in sup plying them due to the high claims for alleged defects, short life, or whatever. About two years ago Davis 81 Furber began to look for a satisfactory replacement for leather rub aprons - one that would not glaze too quickly, not be unduly affected by atmospheric changes, and be free from flat snots, glued laps, or hard "back-bone" area. At present it appears that a grooved apron is necessary, and diamond pattern of grooving is best. The number of grooves, and depth of grooves has some relation to the cut number of the roving being produced, at least that is the tentative thinking from experiments to date. There are still some obstacles, for example, pure asbestos roving (no.organic content) and also the production of core roving. Mr. Lynch asked cooperation of the industry in furthering the test ing of possible replacements for leather rub aprons, saying that only thru such cooperation could success be attained. In response to a question from the floor, Mr. Lynch stated that his company had tried to work with DuPont's CORFAH material, but found it unsuitable for rub apron use. President Rainey thanked Mr. Lynch for his fine talk, and many fa vorable comments were made about it by various members following the meeting. 7. The Committee Reports weTe given by t-he respective chairmen as listed below. The full text of their reports is attached to these minutes; Air Hygiene 81 Mfg. Committee - W.C. Atkinson, Chm.

Oughtred, on his recent election as President of Asbestos Corporation Limited. Mr. r.r. Carson offered to convey this to Mr. Oughtred, as he was not present. Minutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -4- 9. President Rainey paid tribute to Mr. Geo.W. Smith who retired from the presidency of Dell Asbestos I-ines Ltd. last November, and expressed our gratification that he was in attendance at this meet ing. 10. President Rainey presented Mr. Staton J. Peele, Jr., with a "Certificate of Appreciation" in the form of a handsome plaque. Mr. Peele, who served the Institute as president in 1963 and 1964, and as chairman bf the Sales Promotion Committee for two years prio to that, will not be active in A.T.I. due to a realignment of his duties at UniRoyal, Inc. Mr. Peele responded to the presentation in a most suitable manner, and expressed his deep appreciation for the plaque, and his regret that he could ndt continue to be active in A.T.I. ' 11. There being no further business to come before the meeting, it was adjourned for luncheon, to which the wives of members had been invited. This proved to be a most enjoyable affair, enhanced by the thoughtful presentation of a corsage to each lady on behalf of the "Miners", for which the ladies were most appreciative. Follow ing luncheon the meeting was addressed by President Rainey who thanked the "Idners" for their splendid and generous hospitality in entertaining A.T.I. members and their wives at Exno 67 the previous day. . 12.

At the previous meeting the Board of Governors was asked to consider the purchase of a 40-2 Automatic Dust Counter for use by the member companies. The Board of Governors, in turn, asked for some detailed information on which to base a decision. '. The Committee reviewed the various advantages of the machine among which were its flexibility of use, simplicity - no training required, reproducibility - the counting is automatic and eliminates the human error. In addition, with the recording attachment it makes it pos sible to monitor a specific area over an extended period of time. It was decided that the Committee would control the distribution of the machine and it was understood that all results from its use would be reported to the Committee. Arrangements for the transfer of the machine from one company to the next will be arranged between the two members. It was also decided that there would be no fee charged for its use by member companies. The Board of Governors, approved the purchase and authorized the Chairman to negotiate the purchase. . Asbestos Textile Industry Health Regulations in Great Britain Mr. C.L. Sheckler read a list of proposed regulations for the manu facture and use of asbestos textiles in England. The list has been submitted to the industry for review and comment. In brief, they arc proposing the manufacture of asbestos textiles shall be a totally enclosed operation in which the operators will never be exposed to any visible dust. All surfaces, building and machine, shall be relished and resist dust accumulation. All J'inutes - Air Hygiene and janufacturing Committee Page -2- materials shall be handled and transported in sealed containers. Vacuum cleaners shall, not exhaust air into the building. The Committee found the recommendations impractical and extreme. Hov'ever', there seems to be no doubt that the British government will attempt to enforce them. V/.C.

The four display cabinets are currently on loan to Michigan State University until October, 1967. At present there is no specific place to send then as yet at the termination of their stay at Michi gan State. The cabinets need refurbishing and whether money will be spent for this or utilized to better advantage in some other promo tional activity has not yet been decided. It was reported that the asbestos textile volume from Japan seems to be increasing. In addition to asbestos cloth, wo now find asbestos tane coning into the U.S. The cloth and tape appear to be accept able nroducts and sell for around 70 lb. There has even been some aluminized asbestos cloth for the safety clothing market come in from Japan. Some of us have even seen an asbestos metal reinforced yarn made by the Japanese using 5 grade fiber. The 3rd Edition of the Asbestos Textile Handbook has,been printed and distributed to all member companies. This handbook is self-supporting and no charges will be applied to the A.T.I. This edition had 12,534 copies printed at a unit cost of 66.3d whereas the previ ous 1961 edition had 15,125 copies printed at a unit cost of 72.Sd. The current edition is, therefore, 9% lov/er than the 1961 edition despite a smaller number of copies printed and general increases in materials and labor. Mr. W.S. Hbiigtt and all others who worked on the handbook should be complimented on putting out a high quality book at such a reasonable cost. ' It was nronosed that the A.T.I. buy extra conies of the Asbestos magazine and have them sent on a regular basis to prospective asbes tos textile customers. Mr. Christenbury of American Asbestos Textile Corp. is to contact the magazine and report to the Sales Promotion Committee at our next meeting. It was agreed that our Secretary, Mr. Sunbury, from now on will send in a monthly business condition renort of the Asbestos Textile indus try to the Asbestos magazine. Mr. Staton Teele, Jr. is being reassigned by his company and will no longer participate in the asbestos textile branch of the busine-r. In appreciation of his guidance and loyalty during the past few years the Hoard of Governors Personally presented Mr. Teele with a yachting wrist watch suitably inscribed from the 3oard members.

Since the last regular meeting in February, the committee had an intermediate meeting on May 11th. and 12th. at ASTM Headquarter, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. On the first day of this meeting, Thursday, further revision was made on D 299, Yarn, wherein the discussion was based on comnemts and recommendations from Dr. Scroggie*s Sc-6 Committee, most of which were accepted, and bv way of this discussion, the 6th. Draft of D 299 was set up. Dr. Scrog.?ie met with the committee on that day, and it was believed by all members present that this draft was a very acceptable version which would require very little editorial change. - On the second day, Friday, of this meeting, the committee set up the 1st. Draft of D 375, Roving. The reason for selecting Roving next was due to it's similarity to D 299. Revision of ASTM Specification D 1118 Also, on Friday of this meeting, Paul.Nicodemus met with the committee and D 1118, Test for Magnetic Rating, was discussed with Paul Nicodenus leading the dir-cussion Since this will be a long range project, it was decided to start the project with . pound robin" test wherein John Hawkins, who is chairman of the Subcommittee, offered to prepare the samples. There were to be two sets of samples, one set for the Kapes Magnetic Analyzer, 10 gram sample, and one set for the T. Sc N. Magnetic Analyzer, 1$ gram samples. Samples were to be prepared and sealed so that the samo identical samples could be circulated and tested by all members. Each <iet of samples were tc be prepared from asbestos fibers of the following oJ minutes* technical cokmittze approximate magnetic rating* 0.25, 0.75, 2.0, and Ii.O HR, it bein-i understood that the samples in one set would not necessarily be of the exact HR as those of the other set. These were to be sent to all.mer.bers of A.T.I. and Sub committee A-li who have the ASTM and/or T. fit N. instruments). Members were to test samples, report to John Hawkins, and send samples on accordin.-; to a pre arranged routing. Included in the series of tests were to be testing the set of standards furnished with the T. & N. instrument and testing of a set of standards prepared by the late Dr. Shaw for the ASTM instrument.

Revision of ASTM Specification D 1118 At the committee's present meeting of June 8th., the Fiber Testing and Technical Committees met jointly for a brief tine and re-discussed the project on ma naetic rating and "round robin" test. The decision reached at this joint , aeting was that since the Fiber Testing Committee had already sent out to all members samples for the T. it II. instrument with detailed instructions for the test, that it would be less confusing to follow through on this series of tests before embarking on a new series as planned at the May Uth. meeting of the Technical Committee. Samples were distributed to all member early in the year by the Fiber Testing Committee consisting of asbestos fibers over a ran"e of M. R.s accompanied with instructions for testing the samples. Samples were to be tested by rotating 90, 180, and 270 to ascertain effect of sample position. Also the effect cf adjacent bodies was to be determined by placing a heavy steel pipe near the . T. it N. instrument to see what effect this would have on the reading. -2- oJ MINUTES: TECHNICAL COMMITTEE Revision of ASTM Specification D 299 and D 37? Following the Kay 11th. and 12th. meeting, the 6th. Draft of D 299 and the 1st. Draft of D 375 as set up at that meeting vjere sent to Dr. Scroggie for comments. Replies on both were received prior to our present meeting. Most of the changes recommended were accepted in D 299 and by reason of the similar ity of the two specifications, the recommended changes in D 375 would be equally acceptable. These two will be rewritten as the 7th. Draft of D 299 and the 2nd. Draft of D 375 and after a circulation for possible discrepancies, will be submitted for. letter ballot to A-ii prior to their fall meeting. Questions came up from Dr. Scroggie and Mr. B. Lincoln regarding the following: 1) 5hould separate columns be inserted in the yam and roving Tables for meters per kilogram and for tex numbers? Paul Smith consulted the latfest ASTM ruling and found that conversion factor in foot notes will suffice. 2) To use - 10# tolerance for yards per pound on single yam, on average of five bobbins and withdraw tolerance on individual test. This is in contrast to the current specification of - 8% on the average test and t 15% on the individual test. The committee's decision was to retain the present tolerance* ' 3) The suggestion that a new Note li be inserted viiich refers' to D 12LLi, Recommended Pradtive for Designating Yam Construction was not accepted by the committee. Committee's decision was that it applied to cotton and not to asbestos. It would conflict and confuse. ' h) Are the illustrations "S" and "Z" for twist necessary? The opinion of the committee was that they are necessary and are essential to readers. The committee set August 17th. and 18th. as the next intermediate meeting of the Technical Committee in Atlanta. Paul Smith is making a meeting room reservation for these dates at the Marriott Motor Hotel. J. D.

Bell Asbestos Mines, Ltd. Johns-Manville Corp. . Raybestos-Hanhattan, Inc. Subjects Discussed 1. The first part of the meeting was held jointly with the Technical Committee members to discuss the Magnetic Rating test. The Technical Committee is currently considering re-writing this test for ASTM (D-1118). The Fiber Testing Committee is also looking into the possibility of re-writing this procedure, which is given in the Test Manual and is essentially the same as the ASTM procedure. At the last meeting, the Fiber Testing Committee de cided to run a number of round robin tests to measure the degree of variation that exists between and within laboratories in tests measuring the magnetite 'content of fibers. The Technical Committee agreed that it would be best to await the results of these tests before pro ceeding with further efforts at revising the ASTM procedure. About half of the participants of the round robin have completed the tests and reported on them. It is anti cipated that all tests will be completed by the next meeting and that meaningful data from the tests will be available at that time for a critical evaluation of current methods for measuring magnetite content of fibers. 2. Mr. Christian suggested the need for including statements in the Testing Manual that would caution users on the limitations to be placed on interpreting results obtained from the tests.. He proposed to submit formal suggestions the next meeting - 3. The Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemical Analysis is soon to publish a section in volame six on tests pertaining to asbestos. Raybestos-Manhdttan was asked to contribute to this section. It \*as suggested that any A.T.I. member asked to contribute articles on asbestos testing in this publication in the future might first wish to present their contribution to appropriate committees within the A.T.I. for review. Such a review might produce suggestions that could result In a presentation representative of the views of the asbestos industry.

President Rainey called the meeting to order at 9:40 A.!'., and asked each person in attendance to stand and identify himself and his company affiliation. He mentioned that it was particularly grat ifying to have the following company officials present at this Annual Meeting: Mr. W.S. Simpson, President - Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.; Mr. S.R. Zimmerman, Jr., Exec. Vice President, Raybestos-Jlanhattai, Inc.; Mr. E.H. Wells, Vice President h Gen. Mgr., Johns-Manvilie Corn.; Mr. W.L. Wylie, Vice President & Gen. Mgr., U1JIROYAL, INC.

The minutes of the last me eting were presented for reading. Mr. J.A. Drown, Jr., moved that reading be omitted; seconded by Hr. N.L.A. Martucci. So voted. 3. The Financial Renort was presented by Treasurer Martucci. Mr. E.A. Schuraan moved that report be accented; Mr. J.A. Brown, Jr., seconded, the motion, and it was so voted. The Report is attached to these minutes. 4. Mr. P.Jay Flocken, Legal Counsel, discussed some of the legal aspects of voluntary product standards and certification programs. Hr. Flocken first analyzed the antitrust considerations relevant to individual company and trade association participation in the initia tion, formulation, and aprroval of voluntary standards. He stated that standardization or simplification have been attacked in cases alleging price-fixing where such a program was utilized.as part of a broader effort to secure uniformity of prices or to limit production and to indirectly reduce price competition. The legality of a standards program does not depend upon the mere ex istence of an agreement to standardize but upon an appraisal of the program in the setting of all the circumstances, counsel stated. He briefly reviewed several cases including United States v. National Malleable and Steel Castings Comrany, The Douglas Fir Plywood Associ ation and Asbestos-Cement Pipe cases. Counsel also discussed two forms of certificafi on, self-certifica tion by a producer that a product complies with a given standard and. third-party certification by a trade association or testing la bora- * tory in conjunction with a.registered certification mark under the trademark laws. Counsel discussed various specific certification marks registered under.the Lanham Act and the provisions of that act providing for cancelation of a nark if the registrant discriminates or refuses to certify goods or services which meet the standards in volved. Counsel noted that two requisites for a valid certification program using a trademark are "control" of use of the mark and avail ability of the mark to anyone maintaining the standards which the mark certifies, whether or not a member of the certifying organiza tion. In. this regard, the Supreme Court's decision in the case of Radiant Burners v. American Gas Association was noted. 5. The Fibre Producers Repbrt was given by ?* H.P. Carson, Vice President - Sales, Asbestos Corporation Limited. He mentioned that slow economic conditions in several countries had adversely affected total shipments of Canadian asbestos fibres in the first eight months of this year - down 8.8% - however, total sales of spinning fibres were up about 1% in that period. Group 4 fibres for use in asbestos-cement products were off, as were spinning fibre sales in Italy, France and Germany. Japan has made a good recovery. The em bargo on Rhodesian fibre continues. However, some Rhodesian is reaching markets thru a third country.6 6. President Rainey introduced ))r. Clinton II. Whitehurst, Jr., Head- * Dept, of Industrial Management, Clemson University, Clemson, S.C.. who gave a most interesting talk entitled: "Operations Research Techniques". We were privileged indeed to have the opportunity to har Dr. Whitehurst, a wellrlinown authority in the field of / IJ Minutes - General Meeting - continued: J Page -3- Industrial Management. An abstract of his talk follows: ABSTRACT ' ''It is profoundly erroneous truism, repeated by all copy books and by eminent people when they are making speeches, that we should cul tivate the habit of thinking of what we are doing. The precise oprosite is the case. # Civilization advances by extending the number of important opera tions which we can perform without thinking about then.'*. The above quotation by Alfred North Whitehead was both an introduc tion and, in fact, a summary of the address "Operations Research Techniques" delivered by Dr. C.H. Whitehurst of Clemson University before the Asbestos Textile Institute at Hilton Head, South Carolina on October 6, 1967. In specific terms the address covered in capsule form ten OR tech niques that could be utilized in a typical industrial organization. Each technique was illustrated by a simple example designed to show its potential as an aid to management decision making. Included were examples making use of linear programming, Markov processes, econometrics, multiple graphic correlation analysis, input-output models, matrix algebra, industrial dynamics, and a i'onte Carlo simu lation model. In each case the relevance of the technique to com puter programming was emphasized. % The large number of techniques discussed was made possible by dis tributing handouts to the audience which contained the specific ex ample, relevant technique, and at least one library reference. The handouts together with explanatory illustrations on an easel board was successful in imparting the potential for OR analysis in a firm's operations. 7. Jack Christian, President of Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd., wrote the Secretary prior to this meeting that neither he nor Tom Tiggert would be able to attend due to the fact that their new Clinton mine, at Clinton Creek, B.C., was due to start production and they would be busy there. President Rainey asked Mr. Wm.J.W. Smith, Bell Asbestos lines Limited, sales representatives for Cassiar, to tell us something about the new mine. Mr. Smith said the Clinton Vine is 600 to 700 miles north of the pre sent Cassiar mine, close to "the border of Alaska. Problem of trans porting fibre is somewhat similar to shipments from Cassiar. The type of fibre from the Clinton Tine is generally similar to Cassiar fibre, but there could be some considerable differences. There arboth long and short fibres - but Clinton will produce primarily #4 Group fibres, and a secondary grade will be Group 5. Because yield from ore is never precisely known in advance, Mr. Smith stated that perhaps grades may be produced, other than those presently antici pated. o) Minutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -4- B,, The committee reports were given by the respective chairmen as listed below; - .

Sheckler discussed a bill introduced by Congressman Edward Patten which vould give the U.S. Dept, of Health, Education and Wel fare the power to "establish and enforce realistic standards to pro tect the worker by insuring safer working conditions and the public oy producing safer xnaterials"* The bill has not yet been passed and there is some question whether it will be passed as written. Federal Legislation - Continued A number of newspaper articles regarding claims against one member company were discussed, ' Environmental Health Survey Dr. Lewis J. Cralley discussed a paper on "Exposure to Metal in the Manufac re of Asbestos Textile Products" by L.J. Cralley, R.G. Kee nan and J.R. Lynch, which was accepted for publication in the Journ al of American Hygiene, The paper deals with the potential exposures of workers processing asbestos to hazardous materials other than asbestos. Investigation was undertaken to define the nature and extent of exrosure to metals such as nickel, chromium, cobalt and magnesium in the manufacture of asbestos textile products. It was concluded that the relationship between these metal exposures and the increased pulmonary and other cancer observed in asbestos workers should be investigated and, that it is no longer tenable to look only for asbestos fibers or bodies in the biological tissue and by their presence assume a cause and effect relationship with the disease. It was announced that there will be a meeting in Antigua during the week of Thanksgiving Day, sponsored by the Q.H.n. and by special in< vitation. The purpose of the reeting is to discuss toxic materials,, namely asbestos, and the effects of exposure. Dr, Cralley discussed plans for obtaining additional information needed to continue the Environmental Health Survey such as health profiles and employment records, and he stated that the cooperati. on of the members of the industry would be needed. It was the concensus of the Committee that the program and informa tion is desirable and necessary and recommends to the Board of Gov ernors that the A.T.I. continue to cooperate with the U.S.P.H.S. in continuing the clinical and environmental studies. Miscellaneous One company reported that after 14 years of service a set of dust bags made of cotton sateen was still in good condition. Another company is experimenting with a totally enclosed carding machine to eliminate human exposure to dust. The possibility of exchange visits among representatives of member companies for the purpose of cooperative advancement in di st control was discussed. W.C.

Schunan of Johns- Manvil le The four display cabinets are currently on exhibit at Stevens Insti tute at Uoboken, N.J. Hr. Sunbury and myself examined the cabinets and found they were in need of refurbisning. The Committee voted unanimously to retire the cabinets as they are 10 years old and have served the original purpose. It was voted that we offer the cabinets to our Canadian miners. We had the Edward W. Robothan Co. submit a proposal to the A.T.I. on promoting asbestos textiles by A.T.I. magazine advertising coupled with mailed promotional literature. Preliminary ads were presented and created much interest. The Committee felt that tentatively a segment of the presentation may have merit and should be pursued. The cost for this program would run approximately $19,000 a year. A tentative meeting was set for November with Ir. Robotham, but this - was later postponed and the whole matter taken under further advise ment. It was reported that asbestos textile volume still comes in from Japan and this competition is felt to a small degree throughout the United States. The cloth prices quoted for Japanese material is in the low 70 lb. area. The members of the Committee were not pleased with the U.S. Govern ment's policy of ordering asbestos cloth. It is possible for the successful bidder to be required to supply double the quantity he bid on and to sunnly this material by specified time periods. On the other hand, there is no assurance that the Government at the end of the contract period will take the balance of the cloth inventory that was kept on hand to satisfy the requirements of the contract. Hr. Flocken, our legal counseT, suggested-that ve give him full de tails with specific orders and he would pursue this through his Washington office. ' EAS/p E.A.

Draft dated August 17, 1967 and D 375 was revised as the 3rd. Draft dated August 17, 1967. These two were consequently sent to Paul Nicodemus (25 copies of each draft) for letter ballot and to Dr. Scroggie (7 copies of each draft) for editorial comments. During the interin a reply from Dr. Scrogrie accepted these two drafts as written with very minor changes and he said the two drafts would be acceptable for printing with the changes he suggested. To gain time, a letter ballot was circulated to all members of the committee with the response that Dr. Scroggie suggestions would be acceptable. Without redrafting, these changes were retyped in the margins of the sheets and resent to Paul Nicodemus and Dr. Scroggie. For all practical purposes this finalizes these two specifications. Also at the Atlanta meeting, DJ.061 was revised as the 1st. Draft dated Augxst 18, 1967. This draft was circulated tb members only fcr possible discrepancies. . At the current meeting, the committee confirmed acceptance of all the changes suggested by Dr. Scroggie in D 299 and D 375* D 1061 was reviewed and no sufficient changes made. Decision was made to send Paul Nicodemus a copy of this draft for his views prior to sending to Dr. Scroggie. 1 f ) At the Atlanta meeting federal specifications Mil-l-l53li9c and SS-C-L66f were revised in the light of current industry practice, both editorially and in the dimensions and weights tables. Copies of these revisions were circulated to members only for possible discrepancies. At the current meeting, these two specifications were discussed again with further changes and decision was made to send revised copies to the appropriate government agencies, with a list of suggested changes in addi tion to the corrected draft. Copies of all ASTM specifications referred to in the drafts are to be enclosed for the benefit of the agencies. The revised drafts with suggested changes on the two above specifications will be sent to H. . Sunbury for him to submit to the appropriate government agencies with the statement that these drafts supersede all prior recommendations sent in by individual companies. In conclusion, the comittee, during the past two years, has completed revisions on specifications D 1571 - Cloth, D 315 - Tape, D 2100 - Electrical Insulation, D 1915 - Asbestos Content, D 299 - Yarn, D 375 - Roving, and partially completed revision of D 1061 - Lap. The specifications yet to be revised are: D 628 - Braided Tubing, D 1118 - Magnetic Rating, and D 1573 - Heat Ageing. J. D.

Dodds-Hebron E.A. Farrell W.C.Streib J. Wronski Asbestos Corp., Ltd. H.K.Porter, Inc. Bell Asbestos Mines, Ltd. Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd Johns-Manville Corp. ` Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. Subjects Discussed 1. The Committee discussed the results of the round-robin magnetic rating tests. Ten companies participated in the tests. Analysis of the test data led to the following tentative conclusions: a) Magnetic rating values obtained by either the Mapes Analyzer or the Turner-Newall equipment are not significantly different for fiber samples containing magnetite in the range of 0.3 to 6.0 magnetic rating. b) Magnetic rating values obtained on either the Mapes or T-N units are not significantly altered by the presence of metal in the immediate vicinity of the equipment provided the units are properly zeroed prior to test and the units are not moved from their locations after zeroing. c) Readings on either the Mapes or T-N units are not significantly changed when the test sample is rotated in the unit. d) Mapes or T-N magnetic rating values reported on fiber samples in the 0.3 - 6.0 M.R. range will probably vary by about + 20% between laboratories. Some of the laboratories want to re-check their values in the round-robin. As soon as this is completed more positive conclusions can be reached. The Committee agreed to request approval from the Board of Governors to allow the QAMA to set up a schedule of charges on requests for working drawings of test equipment described in the Test Manual. These drawings were prepared by the QAMA at appreciable cost in time and money. Their dissemination to applicants also takes time and money. The actual charges agreed upon by QAMA would then be submitted to the Board of Governors for final approval. Respectfully submitted, J.

Stated that he had received a letter from Mr.G.P.Wiess, Garlock Inc., authorizing fir.Alex,Kuzmuk to represent that company at this meeting. Also,that he had a letter from Mr. J.A. Brown, Jr., of Raybestos-Man hattan, Inc.authorizing Mr.M.Q.Scowcroft to represent that company at this meeting. Further, that he had been advised by Mr.E.M.Nesvig, V.P. & Gen.Mgr., Thermoid Division, H.K.Porter Co.,Inc., that Mr.L.E. Moody would henceforth be that company's representative on the A.T.I. Board of Governors. All of these gentlemen were extended a most cordial welcome. . 2. The regular order of business was changed for the convenience of our guests who were invited~to hear Dr.L,J. Cralley report on the Environmental Health Study being conducted by the U.S.Public Health Service. Dr. Cralley, Scientist Director, has been a key figure in the Health Study since Its inception several years ago. Dr. Cralley reported on the progress of the Health Study to date,and plans for its continuation. Expects to resume plant studies in June of this year, but no firm schedule has been set up as to order of visiting plants. Mentioned that exposure to trace metals, as well as asbestos, was of interest as they are trying to find out if trace metals such as nickel, cobalt, manganese, etc., are hazardous and to what extent.  O J Minutes of the Board of Governor'a meeting, continued: Page -2 In connection with the plant study a "profile" is to he developed on each person, and it is hoped that this can be correlated with the person's health. The past record study of individuals is con sidered important, even though there is considerable work involved to examine past records. Dr. Cralley suggests they micro-film as a minimum degree of expense to individual companies. Should be ready to start this very soon. The U.I.C.C. and Asbestosis Research Council will sponsor a Seminar in the summer of 1969, and the tentative location is Cardiff, Wales. The British Occupational Health Association have set up certain standards, by fiber length, for li.P.P.C.P. Dr. Cralley feels that by good engineering practices the level of dust concentration can be kept at S MPPCF as a maximum, and this would mean safety for operators exposed to chrysotlle asbestos fibre. For Amosite fibre, however, respirators should be used. Cliff Sheckler, of Johns-Manville Corporation commented that, while important progress has been made in dust control, it could well be that changes in manufacturing operations will need to be made in future, as removal of dust by air suction may not be sufficient. Johns-Manville is trying to find an answer to the problem of better dust control. He believes also that the asbestos industry must be prepared to answer their customer's questions as to what hazards, if any, exist in handling and using products containing asbestos fibre. Mr. Sheckler said that in his opinion we don't know the dose level as yet, that constitutes a hazard of exposure. A long discussion period followed the report by Dr. Cralley, President Rainey thanked Dr. Cralley for his attendance at this meeting. Our guests left the meeting at this point, and routine matters on the Agenda were taken up. 3. The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading. On motion made by E.A.Schuman, seconded by L.E. Moody, it was voted to omit the reading of the minutes. 4. In the absence of Treasurer Martucci (who had to leave early) the Secretary presented the Financial Report for the period of four months ending January 9, 1968. On motion by E. A. Schuman, seconded by J.L. Mitchell, it was voted unanimously to accept the report. It 1s made a part of these minutes. _5 5. The Secretary reported that the Bausch it Lomb Dust Counting Equipment, purchase of which was approved by the Board of Governors at their meeting in June, 1967, had been received. Total cost was $4814.00. The equipment was delivered to Johns-Manville plant at Manville, N.J. on December 4th, 1967, and has been used by that company to a limited extent since that time. The equipment was brought to the Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee meeting on Dec. 8th, and demonstrated. It was turned over to Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc., at Manheim, Pa., for a tour of use at that location. o Minutes of the Board of Governor's meeting, continued: Page -3-7 The Secretary reported that he had covered the equipment with insurance, in the amount of $4785.00, by Inland Marine Policy No. lSCTJ 102086, expiring 12-1-68. Annual premium is $120.00. 6. President Rainey reported that The A.T.I. Exhibit, now in storage, was to be retired on recommendation of the Sales Promotion Comnittee. That it had been offered to the Q.A.M.Association, but they were not interested In it. That member companies had been asked to suggest what disposition should be made of the exhibit, and the only suggestion to date was from Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. A letter from Mr.J.A. Brown, Jr.,of that company, offered to store the exhibit without charge, with the intent to use it in the lobby of their new office building in Manheim,Pa., when same was completed. Mr. Bro?/n stated in his letter, that should the A.T.I. want the exhibit back at some future time that it could be returned to the Institute. Mr. J.L. Mitchell moved that the Raybestos-Manhattan offer be accepted. Mr. R.P. Clark seconded this motion. So voted, unanimously. The Secretary was instructed to arrange for inmediate shipment of the exhibit to Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. at Manheim, Pa. 7. The Secretary reported that the Fiber Testing Committee had recommended that custody of the Standard Magnetite samples, turned over to Mr.P.O. Nicodemus of General Electric Co.,Lowell, Mass.,by Dr. Shaw, should revert to the Secretary of the A.T.I# as Mr. Nicodemus v/ished to be relieved of that responsibility. On motion made by Mr. J.L.Mitchell, seconded by Mr. R.P. Clark, it was voted unanimously that the Secretary should be responsible for the Standard Magnetite samples. - 8. The Secretary asked the Board to approve purchase of a typewriter, stating that the Institute had never owned a typewriter so far as he could determine, as Dr. Shaw, his predecessor, used his personal typewriter, and the Secretary has been using his own typewriter since taking over from Dr. Shaw in July of 1963. Mr. J.L. Mitchell moved that the Secretary be authorized to purchase a new typewriter at a cost not to exceed $300.00. This motion was seconded by Mr. E.A.Schuman. So voted, unanimously. 9. The Secretary informed the Board that Mr. J.A.Bettes, Jr., (retired) a former president of A.T.I., had undertaken to write a "History of Asbestos Textiles in U.S.A.", that it was a very worth while project in his opinion, and asked'the Board what, if any, support should be given this project .of A.T.I. ' There was general agreement that it was an admirable project, but inasmuch as Mr. Bettes had not asked for any support from A.T.I., that it would suffice for the Secretary to inform Mr. Bettes that the Board had been informed of his project, thought it an admir able one, and commended him for undertaking it.10 10. In regard to a speaker for the June meeting, scheduled to be held June 6-7th, 1968 at the Regency Hyatt House, Atlanta, Ga. v '1 Hinntes - Board of Governor's Meeting - continued: Page -4 Mr. 14,Q. Sconcroft, of Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc., on learning that it was time, once again, for his company to accept responsibility for providing a speaker, offered to try and get one. Asked whether it was necessary to have a technical paper, and was assured that any appropriate subject would be acceptable. 11. Approval of location for future A.T.I. meetings: The Secretary reported that he had received confirmed reservations for previously approved locations, namely: June 6-7, 1968 at the Regency Hyatt House in Atlanta, Ga.; and October 3-4, 1968 at the Hotel Hershey, Hershey, Penna. He asked far approval of February 6-7, 1969, at the Grand Hotel in Point Clear, Ala., saying that it had been very highly recommended by Mr. K.W.Nelson (Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd) who had attended a meeting there a year or so earlier. A brochure was passed around. Mr. L.. Moody moved that the Grand Hotel be approved. Mr.Scowcroft seconded the notion. So voted unanimously. The Secretary then asked for approval of The Carolina, Pinehurst,N.C. as a location for our A.T.I. meeting to be held October 9-10, 1969, stating that this would be the 25th Anniversary meeting of the Institute, and a suitable location should be chosen. There was favorable reaction to the suggestion that we return to the Carolina Hotel at Pinehurst, N.C.(we held our meeting there in-Feb. 1965), and Mr. Kuzmuk moved that the Secretary accept The Carolina's offer to host our October 1969 meeting. Mr. R.P.Clark seconded this motion. So voted, unanimously. Still open for suggestions is a location for our A.T.I. meeting tobe held June 5-6, 1969. 12. There being no further business to come before this meeting, on motion duly made and seconded, it was voted to adjourn. Respectfully submitted H. E.

A brief summary of his remarks follows: Counsel reviewed a series of recent Advisory Opinions issued by the Federal Trade Commission, which differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate subjects for Industry codes of 'behavior or trade association standards programs. He emphasized that both the antitrust agencies and the courts have been primarily concerned with the enforcement mechanisms utilized by'businessmen -to secure compliance with such codes or programs. In this connection, counsel also briefly reviewed industry or trade association price and profit reporting programs, standardization activities, and en forcement techniques involved in certain court decisions which have established the basic principles of permissible conduct. Counsel stated that the current attitude of the Department of Justice, as reflected by recent statements of the Assistant Attorney General, is doubtful of the good faith and the rationale of self-regulation by business and that the FTC's Advisory Opinions in this field have been very conservative and allow little room for variation from earlier restrictive decisions by the agencies or the courts. 5. The Fibre Producers Report was given by Mr. N.W. Hendry, V.P. & General Sales Manager, Canadian Johns-Manvllle Asbestos Limited. A summary of Mr. Hendry's fine report is attached to these minutes.6 6. President Rainey Introduced Mr. Paul 0.

Walter Chairman )) FIBRE PRODUCES REPORT Mr. N.W. Hendry, Vice President and General Sales Manager, Canadian Johns-Mar.v ilie Asbestos Limited, Asbestos Fibre Division, Asbestos, Quebec, Canada, reported for the Fibre Producers. Mr. Hendry commented first on business conditions, and said that 1967 was a pretty good year for fibre producers although a little below the exceptionally good year of 1966. Business was rather slow in England, and Western Europe has levelled off. By contrast Japan is "booming" and Australia is also good. Spain and Italy are doing well, as is South America. The future situation in the U.S.A. is somewhat in doubt as the political situation, credit restrictions and labor problems could affect many major manufacturers adversely. Speaking of the Textile Fibres, Mr.Hendry pointed out that there has been a marked improvement in Quality during the past ten years, the producers now have a great deal more knowledge of what constitutes a good textile fibre, and work to produce even better fibre will con tinue. He mentioned that demand for textile grades is quite strong. In comparing total tonnages of asbestos fibre(all grades) produced in Canada vs.Russia, the Canadian mines for year 1967 produced about 1,443,000 tons as against 1,070,000 in Russia. An annual production of 2,200,000 tons by 1970 is forecast for Russia. World production in 1967 was in the neighborhood of 4,300,000 tons. Hew mines, namely:- Reeves in Northern Ontario, Clinton Creek in Yukon' Territory, Aktrovak and at Kiembi Kazakhastan in Russia, and one in Brazil will add to world production of asbestos fibres. The Brazilian mine is 2CO or 300 miles north of Brasilia, and the production there is about 5,000 tons annually. In commenting on the Health Aspects of asbestos, Mr.Hendry referred to the fact that the Q.A.M.A. had established the Institute of Occupa tional and Environmental Health to conduct research into all facets cf the production, manufacturing and use of asbestos and asbestos pro ducts. While the Q.A.H.A. has decided not to publish interim reports on research projects because they are not complete, there is no evidence of any risk to human health In exposure to, or use of manu factured products containing asbestos fibres. A great deal of research on the health aspects of asbestos is being conducted at many centers in the world, to which the "Canadian producers are lending their support. Adverse publicity on asbestos has prompted Johns-Manville to get out a "Position Paper" in respeftt to effect of asbestos on Health, for the benefit of their own organization. While- this is not for general pub lication, members of A.T.I. could probably get a copy by writing direct to President Burnett of Johns-Manville. In conclusion Mr. Hendry stated that his company, from present indica tions, would discontinue shipping asbestos fibre grades in loose jute bags due to the dusty condition resulting from this type of operation. Various types of bags can be substituted, such as multi-wall paper or polyethylene, both of which are dust proof. February 9, 1960 N. W.

The outcome of the Magnetic Rating Round Robin on three asbestos fiber samples at different laboratory locations and the con clusions based on the statistical analyses of the results were reviewed with members of the Technical Committee (6), Mr. Paul 0. Nicodemus, Chairman of Subcommittee A-4, ASTM Committee D-13, and other affiliated ASTM members (3) present, ,aa follows: 1.1 Metallic Influence can have a drastic result on the Mapes test, however, if the test is run correctly and the eo.uipment zeroed properly, the influence of raetallics can be overcome. Note 1 - During the course of discussion, it was pointed out that, due to differences in construction, it was not always possible to zero all models of the Mapes apparatus in the presence of metallic influence. 1.2 The continuing F x C interaction leads to the conclusion that fiber sampling and/or fiber conditioning is an important procedural technique to be improved in all magnetic rating tests. 1.3 From the Round Robin, there is no major evidence of superiority of T. & N. over the Mapes Test from a reproducibility stand point between companies. The advantages of the T. & N., how ever, are ease of operation, less .susceptibility to magnetic Influence, and its initial cost.2 2. The recommendations of the joint session were as follows: 2.1 That the ASTM Magnetic Rating Test Method be rewritten indi cating a preference for the T,ti N. apparatus and retaining Procedure "A" of the present ASTM D-1118 procedure as an alternativ e. ) Page (2) of (2) 2.2 That the custody of the remaining standard magnetite Sample No. 29(a), or equivalent reference standards, now in the possession of Mr. Paul Nicodemus be transferred to ATI for safe keeping; and that the Fibre Testing Committee take action to acquire a supply of suitable iron oxide for the preparation of calibra tion standards and arrange for its dispensation through the ATI cecutive Secretary in the future (This recommendation was subsequently approved by the ATI Board of Governors). 2.3 That the Technical Committee, in conjunction with Subcommittee A-4, ASTM Committee D-13 members interested, organize a Round Robin to investigate the performance and reproducibility of the TM N. apparatus for the testing of textile products before the new Magnetic Rating Test Method is finalized (Round Robin to include the laboratories Involved in the recent Fibre Testing Committee's Round Robin plus other ATI member companies interested). 2.4 That the Fibre Testing Committee carry out some exploratory testing with a natural crudy fiber to investigate the effect of the sampling procedure on the reproducibility of the Magnetic Rating Test (Three member companies indicated their desire to participate in this study). 3. Interest was rejuvenated in a test method for d'etermining the undesirable rock and spicular content of spinning fibres (Two ` laboratories indicated that they were currently considering suitable approaches to this particular problem). 4. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical and ASTM D-30 Committees (Subcommittee III) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. 5. New Business.- The chairman Indicated that an agenda would be mailed out one month in advance of the next meeting to stimulate Interest in the Fibre Testing Committee's activities; and to assist in guiding its future program to best meet the require ments of ATI.

J.I.. Rainey and J.W. Christenbury of American Asbestos Textile Corporation, N.L.A. Martucci and Alexan der Kuzmuk of Garlock, Inc., E.A. Schuman of Johns-Manville Corp., J.L.Mitchell of Tallman-McCluskey Fabrics Company, R.P. Clark of Uniroyal, Inc., P.Jay Fiocken,(Legal counsel), H.E.Sunbury,(Secretary), and M.Q. Scowcroft of Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. . Efforts to place the display cabinet owned by the Institute have now been exhausted. Raybestos-Manhattan offered to store the cabinets pending completion of their new office building in Manheim, Pennsyl vania where it will eventually be placed in their lobby. The committee voted to accept the offer and the matter was turned over to the Board of Governors for further action. At the meeting held in Hilton Head, S.C. last October the committee discussed a proposal presented to it by the Edward W.Robotham Company for an advertising program aimed at promoting the use of asbestos textiles in a general rather than a specific end product usage as an effort to combat the intrusion of alternate materials in many of our traditional fields. Between that meeting and the meeting held February Bth, generally discouraging reports came back from most member com panies. Because of the lukenarm reception at top management level it was voted to shelve the program temporarily. However, it was recorded that most of the members of the committee felt that there was genuine merit in the program and that it should not be permanently set aside. The purchasing policies of the Government procurement program was discussed in detail. Rather than have legal counsel pursue the matter in an attempt to influence them to adjust this policy, it was agreed that the committee assign two members to visit the D.S.A. in Columbus, Ohio in an attempt to educate ourselves as to the reasons for these purchasing policies and to attempt to obtain relief from them. R.P. Clark of Uniroyal, Inc. and M.Q. Scowcroft of Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc. were assigned this task- A full report will be submitted to the committee following the call at Columbus and prior to the next meeting. A detailed discussion was held concerning the hazards Involved in the processing and use of asbestos textiles and the affect of adverse publicity concerning asbestos in the market place. While the subject of Health Hazards is of proper concern to the Sales Promotion Committee it was felt that anything we might do at this time in the form of attempting to set industry standards on what might be called "Dust Free" or "Lint Free" fabrics would introduce far more problems than benefits for the Industry. Information had reached members of the Institute that the U.S.Navy had eliminated the use of asbestos cloth as Insulation aboard Naval ) Page -2- ahips. This was thoroughly investigated and found to be entirely false. But it has been learned that one private shipyard has eliminated asbestos and replaced it with glass cloth in at least one popular style of cloth. Members agreed that a stepped up and con tinuing program of contacting the Navy Department in Washington is worth our efforts. Competition from Japanese cloth in the United States was also dis cussed in detail. It was suggested that Japanese cloth does not approach the quality of fabrics manufactured by member companies particularly in relation to their flame resistant characteristics and we are working; up data to use as ammunition in this area. A specific application of rubber coated asbestos sleeving accused of being the culprit in a corrosion problem with air-frame manu facturers was discussed. No specific action was taken since it was understood that a member company was fighting this substitution with its own active task force. Respectfully submitted, * M. Q.

The Editorial .Committee of ASTM suggested several changes in format which were not acceptable to the Technical Committee. Other minor changes were incorporated into D 1061 and this speci fication will be published in October without further changes. ASTM D 628: This tubular sleeving method as presently published covers Test Methods only. The sections pertaining to test methods have been completely rewritten. It was decided that in addition to test methods that this method would also include specifications and tolerances. These additional sections will be incorporated into the method after consideration by the conanittee. The Technical Committee met briefly with the Fiber Testing Committee to hear their report on the Round Robin test series on magnetic rating recently completed by that committee. These tests considered asbestps fibers only. A joint session was held between ASTM Committee A-4 and the Technical Committee on February 8. Mr. Nicodemus acted as chairman and matters of mutual Interest were discussed. A Round Robin test will be con ducted on the magnetic rating of asbestos products - lap, roving, yarn, tape, and cloth. It was also decided that when these tests are complete the specification -on magnetic rating would be written up to specify the Turner Analyzer as the preferred method, and the Mapes as an alternate. The other remaining method to be revised is the Heat Aging Specification. ) Minutes Page -2- Asbestos Textile Institute Technical Comnittee Meeting December 14th, 15th, 1967 The meeting was held at the Sheraton Park Hotel in Washington, D.C.

The Financial Report was presented by Mr.E.A. Schuman. It was moved by Mr.D.F. Quealy that the report be accepted. Mr. G.E. Houghton seconded the motion, and it wa3 so voted. The report is attached to these minutes. 4. Mr. P.Jay Fiocken, Legal Counsel, reported on some recent liti gation under the Sherman Anti-trust Act. A brief summary of his remarks follows: Counsel reviewed a series of recent Advisory Opinions issued by the Federal Trade Commission, which differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate subjects for industry codes of behavior or trade association standards programs. He emphasized that both the antitrust agencies and the courts have been primarily concerned with the enforcement mechanisms utilized by businessmen to secure compliance with such codes or programs. In this connection, counsel also briefly reviewed industry or trade association price and profit reporting programs, standardization activities, and en forcement techniques involved in certain court decisions which have established the basic principles of permissible conduct. Counsel stated that the current attitude of the Department of Justice, as reflected by recent statements of the Assistant Attorney General, is doubtful of the good faith and the rationale of self-regulation by business and that the FTC's Advisory Opinions in this field have been very conservative and allow little room for variation from earlier restrictive decisions by the agencies or the courts. 5. The Fibre Producers Report was given by Mr. N.W. Hendry, V.P. & General Sales Manager, Canadian Johns-Manville Asbestos Limited. A summary of Mr. Hendry's fine report is attached to these minutes.5 5. President Rainey introduced Mr. Paul 0.

In commenting on the Health Aspects of asbestos, Mr.Hendry referred to the fact that the Q.A.M.A. had established the Institute of Occupa tional and Environmental Health to conduct research into all facets of the production, manufacturing and use of asbestos and asbestos pro ducts. While the Q.A.M.A. has decided not to publish interim reports on research projects because they are not complete, there is no evidence of any risk to human health in exposure to, or use of manu factured products containing asbestos fibres. A great deal of research on the health aspects of asbestos is being conducted at many centers in the world, to which the Canadian producers are lending their support. Adverse publicity on asbestos has prompted Johns-Manville to get out a "Position Paper" in respect to effect of asbestos on Health, for the benefit of their own organization. While this is not for general pub lication, members of A.T.I. could probably get a copy by writing direct to President Burnett of Johns-Manville. In conclusion Mr. Hendry stated that his company, from present indica tions, would discontinue shipping asbestos fibre grades in loose jute bags due to the dusty condition resulting from this type of operation. Various types of bags can be substituted, such as multi-wall paper or polyethylene, both of which are dust proof. February 9, 1968 N. W.

The outcome of the Magnetic Rating Round Robin on three asbestos fiber samples at different laboratory locations and the con clusions based on the statistical analyses of the results were reviewed with members of the Technical Committee (6), Mr. Paul 0. Nicodemus, Chairman of Subcommittee A-4, ASTM Committee D-13, and other affiliated ASTM members (3) present, as follows; 1.1 Metallic influence can have a drastic result on the Mapes test, however, if the test is run correctly and the equipment zeroed properly, the influence of metallics can be overcome. Note I - During the course of discussion, it was pointed out that, due to differences in construction, it was not always possible to zero all models of the Mapes apparatus in the presence of metallic influence. 1.2 The continuing F x C interaction leads to the conclusion that fiber sampling and/or fiber conditioning is an important procedural technique to be improved in all magnetic rating tests. 1.3 From the Round Robin, there is no major evidence of superiority of T. & N. over the Mapes Test from a reproducibility stand point between companies. The advantages of the T. & N., how ever, are ease of operation, less susceptibility to magnetic influence, and its initial cost. 2. The recommendations of the joint session were as follows: 2.1 That the ASTM Magnetic Rating Test Method be rewritten indi cating a preference for the T.& N. apparatus and retaining Procedure "A" of the present ASTM D-1118 procedure as an alternativ e. Page (2) of (2) 2.2 That the custody of the remaining standard magnetite Sample No. 29(a), or equivalent reference standards, now in the possession of Mr. Paul Nicodemus be -transferred to ATI for safe keeping; and that the Fibre Testing Committee take action to acquire a supply of suitable iron oxide for the preparation of calibra tion standards and arrange for its dispensation through the ATI iixecutive Secretary in the future (This recommendation was subsequently approved by the ATI Board of Governors). 2.3 That the Technical Committee, in conjunction with Subcommittee A-4, ASTM Committee D-13 members interested, organize a Hound Robin to investigate the performance and reproducibility of the T.& N. apparatus for the testing of textile products before the new Magnetic Rating Test Method is finalized (Round Robin to include the laboratories involved in the recent Fibre Testing Committee's Round Robin plus other ATI member companies interested) . 2.4 That the Fibre Testing Committee carry out some exploratory testing with a natural crudy fiber to investigate the effect of the sampling procedure on the reproducibility of the Magnetic Rating Test (Three member companies indicated their desire to participate in this study). 3. Interest was rejuvenated in a test method for determining the . undesirable rock and spicular content of spinning fibres (Two laboratories indicated that they were currently considering suitable approaches to this particular problem). 4. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical and ASTM D-30 Committees (Subcommittee III) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. 5. New Business.- The chairman indicated that an agenda would be mailed out one month in advance of the next meeting to stimulate interest in the Fibre Testing Committee's activities; and to assist in guiding its future program to best meet the require ments of ATI.

J.L. Rainey and J.W. Christenbury of American Asbestos Textile Corporation, N.L.A. Martucci and Alexan der Kuzmuk of Garlock, Inc., E.A. Schuman of Johns-Manville Corp., J.L.Mitchell of Tallman-McCluskey Fabrics Company, R.P. Clark of Uniroyal, Inc., P.Jay Fiocken,(Legal counsel), H.E.Sunbury,(Secretary), and M.Q. Scowcroft of Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. Efforts to place the display cabinet owned by the Institute have now been exhausted. Raybestos-Manhattan offered to store the cabinets pending completion of their new office building in Manheim, Pennsyl vania where it will eventually be placed in their lobby. The committee voted to accept the offer and the matter was turned over to the Board of Governors for further action. At the meeting held in Hilton Head, S.C. last October the committee discussed a proposal presented to it by the Edward W.Robotham Company for an advertising program aimed at promoting the use of asbestos textiles in a general rather than a specific end product usage as an effort to combat the intrusion of alternate materials in many of our traditional fields. Between that meeting and the meeting held February 8th, generally discouraging reports came back from most member com panies. Because of the lukewarm reception at top management level it was voted to shelve the program temporarily. However, it was recorded that most of the members of the committee felt that there was genuine merit in the program and that it should not be permanently set aside. The purchasing policies of the Government procurement program was discussed in detail. Rather than have legal counsel pursue the matter in an attempt to influence them to adjust this policy, it was agreed that the committee assign two members to visit the D.S.A. in Columbus, Ohio in an attempt to educate ourselves as to the reasons for these purchasing policies and to attempt to obtain relief from them. R.P. Clark of Uniroyal, Inc. and M.Q. Scowcroft of Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc. were assigned this task. A full report will be submitted to the committee following the call at Columbus and prior to the next meeting. A detailed discussion was held concerning the hazards involved in the processing and use of asbestos textiles and the affect of adverse publicity concerning asbestos in the market place. While the subject of Health Hazards is of proper concern to the Sales Promotion Committee it was felt that anything we might do at this time in the form of attempting to set industry standards on what might be called "Dust Free" or "Lint Free" fabrics would introduce far more problems than benefits for the Industry. Information had reached members of the Institute that the U.S.Navy had eliminated the use of asbestos cloth as insulation aboard Naval Page -2- ships. This was thoroughly investigated and found to be entirely false. But it has been learned that one private shipyard has eliminated asbestos and replaced it with glass cloth in at least one popular style of cloth. Members agreed that a stepped up and con tinuing program of contacting the Navy Department in Washington is worth our efforts. Competition from Japanese cloth in the United States was also dis cussed in detail. It was suggested that Japanese cloth does not approach the quality of fabrics manufactured by member companies particularly in relation to their flame resistant characteristics and we are working up data to use as ammunition in this area. A specific application of rubber coated asbestos sleeving accused of being the culprit in a corrosion problem with air-frame manu facturers was discussed. No specific action was taken since it was understood that a member company was fighting this substitution with its own active task force. Respectfully submitted, M. Q. Scowcroft, Chairman Minut es Asbescos Textile Institute Technical Committee Meeting February 7, 1968 Page -1- The meeting was held at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York City.

Porter Co. General Electric Co. H.K. Porter Co., Inc. ASTM Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. ASTM D 1061: The asbestos lap specification was completed at this meeting. The Editorial Committee of ASTM suggested several changes in format which were not acceptable to the Technical Committee. Other minor changes were incorporated into D 1061 and this speci fication will be published in October without further changes. ASTM D 628: This tubular sleeving method as presently published covers Test Methods only. The sections pertaining to test methods have, been completely rewritten-. It was decided that in addition to test methods that this method would also include specifications and tolerances. These additional sections will be incorporated into the method after consideration by the committee. The Technical Committee met briefly with the Fiber Testing Committee to hear their report on the Round Robin test series on magnetic rating recently completed by that committee. These tests considered asbestos fibers only. A joint session was held between ASTM Committee A-4 and the Technical Committee on February 8. Mr. Nicodemus acted as chairman and matters of mutual interest were discussed. A Round Robin test will be con ducted on the magnetic rating of asbestos products - lap, roving, yarn, tape, and cloth. It was also decided that when these tests are complete the specification on magnetic rating would be written up to specify the Turner Analyzer as the preferred method, and the Mapes as an alternate. The other remaining method to be revised is the Heat Aging Specification. Minutes Asbestos Textile Institute Technical Committee Meeting December 14th, 15th, 1967 Page -2 The meeting was held at the Sheraton Park Hotel in Washington, D.C.

The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading. It was moved by hr. J.". Christenbury that the reading be omitted. This motion was seconded by Hr. E.-i. Schuman. So voted. 3, The Financial Report was presented by the Secretary, ilr, J.A. Brovm,Jr. moved that it be accepted, and Hr. G.E. Houghton seconded the motion. It was so voted. The report is attached . I4.. ilr. P.Jay Flocken, Legal Counsel, discussed several subjects, including carelessness in corporate writing or speech which, under certain circumstances, may suggest antitrust problems which actual ly are non-existent; the Federal Trade Commission decision against American Brakeshoe's (Abex Corp.) acquisition of S.K. Velman Co. because of the adverse impact on competition in the manufacture and sale of sintered metallic friction materials; Department of Justice informal consultation with Canadian officials on enforce ment activities affecting each other's country; and the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission merger guidelines. Counsel reviewed the background and stated purposes of the enforce ment officials in issuing merger guidelines as well as the standards applicable to enforcement decisions with reference to horizontal, vertical and conglomerate mergers contained in the guidelines. It was pointed out that conglomerate mergers, as currently defined and understood by the government, constitute a very sizeable portion of all corporate mergers today. The FTC, for example, esti mates that of 155 "large" acquisitions it counted in 1967, 83^ were of the conglomerate type. Counsel noted that the Department of Justice guidelines on conglomerate mergers are less well de fined than on horizontal or vertical mergers and that case-by case enforcement action will have to spell out further the meaninful law in this area. It was noted that the Department of Justice guidelines issued May 30, I960 have been preceded by three separate industry guidelines issued by the FTC on vertical integration in the cement industry, food distribution and food products. Counsel answered numerous questions from members, after his talk. 5. The Fibre Producer's Report was given by .ir. hm.J.U. Smith, Director, Vice President Ik General Sales :ianager of hell Asbestos iiines Limited. ilr. Smith said, commenting on the overall sales picture for asbestos fibres (all grades), that 1966 was a "good year", 1967 was slightly less, and that 1966 is moving toward the 1966 level based on year-to-date figures. Further, that the sales of spinning fibre grades are in step with the overall picture. In Europe, events of the past few weeks in France and other countrys, may have an adverse effect on progress, although there is still considerable optimism there. In England, a more hesitant view is taken. In Japan, which he visited a few weeks earlier, lir. Smith found that a good start has been made, and they should have a good year even if money gets "tight" as some fear may occur later this year. Minutes of the General Meeting - continued: ?age -3- 6. President Rainey introduced Dr. G.R. Cuthbertson, Technical Director of the Fiber and Textile Division, UITIROYAL,Inc., and expressed our pleasure at his willingness to be our main speaker at this meeting. Dr. Cuthbertson's talk, entitled - "The ACCELERATION OF TEXTILE TECHNOLOGY" or How to take a Giant Step Without Saying "May I?", was most constructive and of great interest to a most appreciative audience. We are indebted to Dr. Cuthbertson for supplying copies of his talk for inclusion with these minutes. president Rainey thanked Dr. Cuthbertson on behalf of the Institute and it's mambers. 7.

President Rainey expressed his apprecation, and that of the Insti tute, for the fine work of our several committees, and mentioned also the valuable assistance given the Technical Committee by Mr. Paul J. Smith of A.S.T.M. in regard to the revision of ASTii Specifications for Asbe3to3 Textiles. 8. President Rainey announced that the date of the next General Meeting woulA be October 3*4. 1968, at Hotel Hershey, Hershey.Pa. This is a fine hotel, located in the interesting Pennsylvania Dutch country, with much to see and do. As is customary at our annual meeting each October, members are urged to make a special effort to bring thir wives to this meeting! iir. Rainey announced also, that the winter meeting of A.T.I. would be at the GRAND HOTEL, Point Clear, Ala.(near Mobile) and the dates are February 6-7, 1969. This is a very famous hostelry and those who have attended meetings of other associations there are sure that A.T.I, members and their wives will greatly enjoy their visit to the GRAND HOTEL! 9. There being no further business to come before the meeting it recessed for luncheon, following which the meeting adjourned.

L.C. hilliams gave, a report on the tests conducted at the Raybestos-.Ianhattan plant in Charleston,.j.C. The instrument has performed to the fullest satisfaction and proven it's feasibility for spot checks as well as for the dust control (recording) over extended periods of time in connection with the Strip C'.iart Recorder, To find a correlation between the Iupinger and the Dausch A Lomb Dust Counter, the instruments were placed approximately one foot apart and operated simultaneously over a period of cne-half hour. The strip chart was running at a sj>*ed of 12 inches pe- hour, therefore charting the dust counts ever a. length of 6. inches on Wo. 37-01-31 chart paper. To find the average dust concentration during the test period, the following method wa.s applied: The highest and the lowest points between each pair of vorticle green lines - selecting the ones touched by tne recorder pen - were determined, subsequent!/ totaled and divided by the number of readings, resulting in the averages of the high and low dust concentrations respectively. Then the average between the average high and the average low dust concentration was determined, resultin0 in the average dust concentration during the tesa period. The results were then compared with the ones from che Inninger. A comparison shows that the figures are - with few exceptions very close together. Variations .jcfreen the figures do not show any clear pattern. A number of advantages of the Dausch t Lomb Dust Counter versus the Iupinger has evolved:1 2 3 1. Dust concentrations can be shown and documented at any given moment over any length of time. 2. The chart paper represents a permanent record. 3. .n; extreme dust concentrations cm bo traced to their cause. for example, oioening of windows, increased vi .ration, broken ende-stc ip. The evaluation of dust counts is simple, and not readily susceptible to human error. Kinutes - Air hygiene 1 kfg. Coniittee - continued: Page -2 5. The instrument can be used for continuous unattended monitoring. 6. The operation does not require a skilled technician. 7. One person can easily conduct 25 to 30 tests per day, including the time needed for evaluation of the tests. 0. The dust counts can easily be broken down as to particle size. 9. The efficiency and simplicity of the instrument results in savings in labor cost. The instrument therefore should pay for itself in a relatively short period of time. For the proper use of the Dausch Lomb Dust Counter the following points should be watched carefully: 1. The air intake has to be protected by a screen in areas where many large fiber particles become airborne, to prevent the intake from clogging. 2. The instrument shall not be placed near a humidifier since it will record water droplets as dust. 3. The daily calibration requires special care and the instructions are to be followed closely. I4.. Use of a pushcart is recommended whenever a series of tests in various locations is to be conducted. 5. For the use of the instrument over a longer period of tine in same location, the use of an electrical outlet rather than of the batteries, is recommended. The Dust Counter will be used at tho naybestos-^binhattan plant in ilanheim, Penna., until the middle of July; then will be shipped to the Uniroyal Plant in hcgansville,la. The instrument na,/ be shipped without any danger of damage, in a sturdy wooden box lined with Styrofoam. Dust Control in the hanufacturing 'Process: A member of the committee suggested that experiments should be conducted in wet spinning and/or wet twisting, since, due to proper enclosure the dust concentrations in the blending and carding operations are already reduced to a minimum. Although changes in the stucture and appearance of the woven material will be unavoidable, it appears to be advisable to experiment ir. that direction for the protection of our employees and those of our customers. The application of proper finishing methods should also be explored to restora or even improve the appearance of material woven with wet spun and/or wet twisted yarns. All committee members reported that their respective companies have discontinued the use of Lenox Anti-Fly 3D-5. host companies con tinue, houever, the use of standard mineral oil in their blending operation. Efforts to find new spray in,_ components to hold moisture in mixes are bein^ iar.de. Jnvironmental Health Survey Dr. L.J. Cralley, U.3. Fublic Health hervice, reported on the progress made in research of the influence of toxic trace metals in connection with asbestos fiber. Various important publications are to be expected in the near future. . ^inutes - Air .ygiene & :ifg. Committee - continued: Pace -3- Hvriene and Labor delations: All committee members present agreed tint it seems to be imperative to improve working conditions, rest rooms, and the general plant appearance to an extent that the asbestos textile industry can compete successfully with other industries in attracting labor, inasmuch as a higher wage level does no longer mean a decisive factor in obtaining desirable operators. Air conditioning might become a "must" in the near future. Respectfully submitted, H. H.

The Gales Promotion Committee met on June 6, 1963 with represent atives of four member companies in attendance. iian/ of you trill recall past reports of this committee which des cribed our concern of the threat of imported Japanese asbestos cloth. The latest reports obtained thru the Department of Commerce show that cloth imported into the TJ.b. from Japan increased 3^ in 1967 versus 1966. Such a large percental increase is alarming and the committee spent much of its time discussing weapons avail able to combat this threat. Some members feel that, because of the extremely low prices that this cloth is selling for, a possible charge of "dumping" might be leveled against the Japanese industry. Me requested Counsel to investigate thxs possibility through an approach to the hoard of Trade Commission. Many felt that an effec tive approach to the problem would be to attack in the market place since reports indicate that the Japanese are producing a generally inferior textile product. Since members reported s. con flict in test results of Japanese cloth, it was decided to ask the Board of Governors to approach the Tec mical Committee for a cooperative effort on correlating test data in this area. Hope fully, this data will prove conclusively that Japanese cloth is demonstratably inferior and that this data will be available for the use of all members in the field. At our last meeting it was reported that the Government procure* ment policy was such that member companies were discouraged in bid ding. ';e felt that the Government procedures hindered us in submitting our bast bids because of the excessive inventories that must be maintained in order to fulfill! their ofttimes abnormal demands* hr. Richard Clark and I visited their offices in Columbus Ohio, in order to ecu.- cate ourselves on the reasons for their pol icy and to ascertain whether or not ue could influence them to ch ange the procedure, be discussed this subject in detail at our meeting and arrived at the conclusion that as long as the system 9$B*eeently employed was, in truth, working to the best advantage to the '' ' ' ` Government, (though indeed net to the industry) we stood little chance of success to alter it, As has become customary, we discussed at length the problem of the hazards involved in the processing and use of asbestos textile products, ''e remain vitally concerned about the problem and seek avenues leading to cooperative efforts of the otherco.imittees. Many suggestions were made and discussed thoroughly but each seem ed to introduce more problems than solutions. However it does seem desirable to make a beginning in educating salesmen in the field so that they can answer queries concerning the health hazard. We feel that this should be the responsibility of each member com pany and it was decided that, for the tine being, we should not try to approach the problem by collective action.

Magnetic_ Rating Test 1.1 Calibrating Standards - The preparation ana use of calibrat ing standards for the T.& H. Magnetic Rating apparatus, as well as other details relative to the new test method, were reviewed and discussed at some length. The chairman advised that 20 grams of the original U.S. Bureau of Standards mag netite Sample Bo. 29a was being turned over to the ATI Exec utive Secretary for safe keeping ana future correlation work; and that correspondence was in progress to locate a suitable replacement for 29a. 1.2 The chairman was delegated to write Mr. Bernard Lincoln con cerning the preparation of calibrating standards for the T.& H. apparatus, replacement of existing glass specimen holders with plastic cells;and the reproducibility of the test in the higher M.R. range. 1.3 The results of some preliminary tests to investigate the effect of sampling and conditioning on the M.R. insults were reviev/ed. It was recommended that magnetic rating tests be performed on fibre samples in the `'as received state11, ob tained by the normal sampling procedure outlined in the manual of "Testing Procedures for Chrysotile Asbestos Fibre, 1966 Ldition'1, rather than to specify any special preparational treatment; but that reference be made to the fact that magnetic ratings are affected by degree of openess, or part icle size, in a suitable preamble under the 'Scope" of the test in the final ifrite-up. 1.4.

Objectionable Spicular & Rock Content Test.- Possible approaches to develop a test method for the determination of the undesirable spicular and rock content of spinning fibres were discussed at some length. It was decided that a wet procedure based on the use of hydrocyclones had better possibilities than any known dry classification method. Accordingly, it was agreed that some preliminary work be carried out with hydrocyclones and that the test data and fractions recovered be presented at the next meeting of the Fiber Testing Committee, 3. Recent activities of the QAilA Technical and ASTII D-30,Sub,Com.III of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. i;. Hew Business,- Although no new business was tabled, member companies were requested to submit any problems and ideas they might have on fiber testing to the chairman prior to the October meeting. This will assist in guiding the activities of the Fiber festin^ Committee to meet the requirements of ATI and make future meetings more interesting and worthwhile attending. Respectfully submitted. G.F.A. Brink Chairman THE ACCELERATION OF TEXTILE TECHNOLOGY Or, How to Take A Giant Step Without Saying "May I?" Guest Speaker: Dr. G. R. Cuthbertson Technical Director Fiber & Textile Division UNIROYAL, Inc. Asbestos Textile Institute Meeting Atlanta, Georgia June 7, 1968 1 Gentlemen . . . As every schoolboy knows, Spencer Tracy invented the electric light . . . Don Ameche invented the telephone . . . Paul Muni became one of humanity's great benefactors with his development of pasteuri zation . . . and it is entirely possible that Elvis Presley will some day remove his agile fingers from a guitar long enough to accomplish the world's first successful transplant of the human heart. Now I'm sure you all recognize these very familiar names as those of actors who have portrayed ... or may some day portray . . . the lives of such men of genius as Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, Louis Pasteur and Dr. Christian Barnard. In a sense, the highly colored motion picture biographies have succeeded in corrupting our appreciation of just how the great developments in technology and science are really accomplished. Reason tells us that most scientific breakthroughs are the endproduct of distinctly unglamorous, long-drawn-out years of effort. . . with many people contributing bits and pieces of incremental knowledge to what may in the end become a major advance in any given field and the building of a technological pyramid. But . . . even though we know all this . . . even though we who have devoted years of work in the textile field are well aware of how much painstaking effort was required to develop and improve our own tech nology . . . still we cannot rid ourselves entirely of the romantic notion that innovations and inventions in other fields are accomplished . . .as the movies would have us believe ... in a far more revo lutionary manner as a blinding flash of pure inspiration. And who's to say that they are not. Take, for example Einstein's Theory of Relativity. I have here in my hand a letter that Dr. Einstein wrote many years ago to his brother, Wilhelm. Let me read it to you . . . My dear Wilhelm . . . I think E equals M.V.2- Otherwise, there's nothing else that's new. By the way, could you let me have another five dollars? That plus the five I already owe you will make it an even eight. Your loving brother. Albert 2 I must confess that the letter I've just read to you is an invention of my own. I don't know if Dr. Einstein ever had a brother named Wilhelm. And if he did, I'm not sure he ever borrowed a red cent from him. But I do know that he did discoverthe Theory of Relativity . . . and that this was a basic and fundamental and revolutionary discovery ... as was Fulton's invention of the steam engine . . . Edison's invention of the light bulb. . . Franklin's discovery of electricity . . Fermi's postulation of the theory of atomic energy . . . and in our own field . . . Charles Goodyear's discoveries of the vulcanization of rubber ... of the first poly styrene plastic by Simon in 1839 . . . and the first synthetic nylon fiber by Dr. Carothers. Very few inventions and discoveries belong in that category. For the most part, inventions are really improvements and embellishments of past discoveries. But since those of us in one field of technology always tend to believe that the grass is growing much faster and greener m another field, we in the textile business are likely to judge as revolutionary such developments as . . . heart transplants . . . laser instruments for denistry and for cornea transplants . . . computer technology . . . jet propulsion . . . antibiotics . . . television . . .communications via satellite. . .polio vacme and scientific farming. The truth is that a good case could be made to prove that each of these developments should be classified as evolutionary rather than revolutionary. Take heart transplant, for example. Despite the flood of publicity hearalding recent accomplishments in this field, it is by no means a revolutionary development. For heart transplants were preceeded by kidney transplants in humans, and before that by a great deal of experimentation in the transplantation of both these organs in animals. It took long, hard years of research to perfect the surgical techniques and to gain some measure of control over body chemistry before transplantation of organs in humans became feasible. And what about jet propulsion? VJe think of it as a relatively recent and revolutionary development. It is, in fact, a rather old one for which the patents have long since expired. The phenomenon upon which it is based is something we observed as children whenever we inflated a balloon and released it without closing the opening. Remember how it would jet through the air with remarkable speed'. And as for Television . . . well the fact is that a major company had worked out all the details on TV broadcasting and receiving before 1935 . . . with the exception of the difficulty they were having in focusing the electron beams. This prevented them from broadcasting and receiving a sharp image. But they hired a young Ph.D. from the 3 Physics Department of Harvard and assigned him the task of solving this problem. Needless to say, he was successful and the company honored him by broadcasting his picture every five minutes in their TV exhibit at the 1939 World's Fair m New York. But what about color TV? Surely that was a revolutionary develcpr.ent. It was not until 1964-65 that the same company was broadcasting pictures of pretty girls in color at the World's Fair exhibit. So sorry to disappoint you, but laboratory work on color TV preceeded the intro duction by many years. All of the ooh-ing and ah-ing about color reminds me of an experience I myself had in this area as long ago as 1935. A friend of mine who also happened to be a reporter for the Boston Post called to tell me that a number of financiers in the Boston area had been contacted by an individual who claimed to have developed phosphors which, when exposed to the light of a match, gave off a glow of such magnitude that it provided sufficient illumination to read a newspaper m a darkened room for hours. My own reaction was one of disbelief. I recall quoting the theory that "energy could not be created or destroyed". . .and I told him that the light from a match would not be sufficient to accomplish what the inventor claimed. My friend then asked if I would be willing to discuss the subject with the inventor himself, the press and with some of the potential financiers I agreed. So they all came to the Harvard Chemical Labs. . .where 1 succeeded in exposing the promoter/inventor. He subsequently left town and everybody seemed happy. . But, about a week later, I got a frantic phone call from one of the financiers. To my surprise, he wanted to know how he could get in touch with the inventor. And when I asked him why he wanted to contact such an obvious fraud, he told me that despite the inventor's over promotion of the phosphors, it was possible that some profitable appli cation could be made of them. In fact, the financier himself had some great ideas on how the phosphors could be used in paints. He was sure he could make a fortune with them . . . and I had to admit that the phosphors I had seen were excellent ones that gave off beautiful colors when compared to the standards of that day. Now. . .if in telling you this story I seem to be suggesting that you should welcome the next scientific fraud you encounter with open arms . . .that's not what I had in mind. My point is that many of the scientific marvels that have become old and familiar and take.n-forgranted with the passage of time. . .can sometimes find new and exciting and profitable applications in other directions. This was certainly true of phosphorescent and fluorescent materials. They had been known for at least a century. . .and all it took was the development of a mechanical marvel . . . the color TV tube and circuitry ... to take advantage in 4 still another way of their God-Given characteristics. With few ex ceptions, this is true of all progress in scientific research. It takes both revolutionary and evolutionary paths. . .with all sorts of criss-crossings between discovery, development and practical application. For the most part, of course, we can count on long years to elapse from the time when a basic discovery is made to the time when it is developed into an important practical application or put to profit able commercial use. A There are times, however, when extenuating circumstances force an acceleration of the pace . . . with the result that the elapsed time ' between discovery and end-use is greatly compressed. This was certainly true with respect to Atomic Energy . . . which was both discovered and put to use with revolutionary speed. In this instance, the extenuating circumstance was nothing less than the second World War. At stake were our whole political system and freedom itself. Is there any wonder then that we were prepared to muster the country's top technical brains and provide them with the full backing of our nation s resources to trans form atomic energy into the atomic bomb at revolutionary speed! During the same World War II period, the demands of modern warfare dictated another technical revolution that led to the quick development of a full blown synthetic rubber business in the U.S.A. With our natural rubber supply cut off and the subsequent shortage of truck tires threatening our mobility, American business . . . aided by an amazing degree of governmental cooperation . . . responded by developing syn thetic rubber which had been discovered IOC years earlier into an industry capable of 670,000 tons annually within the short space of two years. The lesson is plain for all to see. . .unless there is some extraordinary driving force. . .such as a war. . .or a national emergency. . .or sane great shortage of a vital product. . .our progress in research and de velopment is apt to be evolutionary. . .to move forward at quite a leisurely and unhurried pace. It might even be possible to express this as a formula. You could take all of the available information. . .such as existing patents . . .growth of population. . .labor statistics. . .research and de velopment activities. . .competitive pressures both domestic and foreign . . . the amount of investment required . . . et cetera. . . and putting all these factors together . . . you could probably come up with a good estimate as to the rate of progress that is likely to occur in product development and commercialization in any given field. It's entirely possible that you wouldn't even have to take all of these factors into account. It's possible that just one of them would so 5 overwhelm the others that no charting or weighing of factors would be required. Let me cite a case in point. You may remember that about eight years ago, the development of the air-car was announced. As a matter of fact, some versions of this car are now in use on a limited scale m swamp lands. Essentially, it is a car with a coated fabric skirt that's suspended above the ground by air pressure and propelled by jets or a propeller. Naturally, we were quite interested in this development. . .and for two reasons. First. . .because it meant that if this type of 'rehicle should replace the conventional automobile, it would open up a big market for coated fabrics. And secondly. . .because it would, at the same time, have a tremendously adverse effect on our tire market. So we hastened to acquire every possible bit of engineering and per formance data obtainable about the air-car. . .and it quickly became obvious to us that in spite of the manufacturer's claims . . .this type of vehicle could not operate effectively on conventional highways. Wind and draft factors made it impossible for the air-car to travel at acceptable rates of speed and manage, at the same time, to stay in traffic lanes or even on the highways. So it was concluded. . .quite correctly. . .that the air-car was not usable on our present highway system. It became clear, too that because'Of the tremendous investment in both manpower and dollars required. . .it would take at least 25 years before suitable highways could be constructed. However, we were able to foresee that the air-car could be used in specialized situations. . .and, as a result, a coated fabric business for air-car use is evolving on a limited basis. The analysis of this particular situation was easy enough. But . . there are others that tend to be much more complicated . . . and in these cases it is important that we take every single factor into consideration. . Off hand, I can think of at least 8 vital factors that will undoubtedly influence whatever revolutionary and evolutionary developments are m store for American fibers and textiles m the foreseeable future. First . . . the pressure of foreign imports; Second . . . the demands of our own Safety Codes (especially with respect to Air Pollution in the manufacturing processes and Inflammability of product at the consumer end): 6 Third . the developments of Creative Chemistry Fourth . the advances made in Automated Manufacturing Equipment* Fifth . industrial requirements for specialized fibers 6 textiles: S ixth . evol'-mg fads and fashions m Styling: Seventh . an insistence upon improved Household Performance (particularly in the area of wrinkle-free, permanently pressed and easy-to-maintam fabrics) : And Eighth. the requirements of our Military Establishment. All of these factors. . .as well as others that you yourself may wish to include. . .are bound to have an important bearing on the progress of our textile technology. Let's consider them individually. Most important of all is the impact of foreign imports. Unfortunateiy, this is one area in which most of us tend to be dangerously complacent. After all, the current le^el of apparel and textile imports co.nsitutes only about 12% of our domestic production. But. . .that 12% figure is a deceptive one. In terms of sheer tonnage it adds up to a huge influx of foreign fibers and textiles. Bear in mind that no single U.S. textile producer accounts for 12% of domestic production, and that will gi**e you some idea of how many jobs and plant facilities could be added here m the U.S.A. if that 12% wasn't coming in from overseas. And the situation is likely to get much worse before it gets better. The recent agreement reached in the so-called "Kennedy Bound' of tariff negotiations at Geneva, Switzerland, could have serious consequences for our own industry. Under the terms of that agreement, tariff reductions are scheduled for some 6,000 products between 1968 and 1972. Among other things, the agreement calls for a sharp reduction in tariffs on spun yarns from both natural and man-made fibers, asbestos products, knitted fabrics, elastic yarns and tire cord. Passenger tires and polypropylene products competitive with those made in the U.S. will fall under the 50% tariff cut. These tariff reductions have been well publicized abroad. As a result, European producers have an intensified awareness of the tremendous market potential that exists here in the U.S.A. It is reasonable to expect that they are gearing up to take fuller advantage of it. Our own politicians are now giving some consideration to imposing import quotos m an effort to correct the situation. But this is, at best, only a short-term expedient. It does net provide us with an answer over the long haul. 7 What's more, the problem is complicated by the fact that many of these foreign imports are not only lower in price but of good quality as well. It's often mentioned that we're competing with much lower labor costs from abroad. For example, it averages about 50 cents an hour in Japan, and 25 cents an hour in South Korea as compared with a $2.00-per-hour average in the U. S. textile business. But lower labor costs are not the only factor. Very little has been said about the fact that TJ S. companies have sold American technology abroad. This includes both product and processing technology . . . and it is one of the big reasons why our foreign competition can make products of good quality through automated processes. Add that to their low labor costs and it's no wonder foreign competition is so rugged. And the big question that faces us is simply this: Aside from political maneuvenngs, just what exactly are we going to do about this threat from abroad? Kow will we meet the challenge? Well, for one thing, I'd suggest that we make much more effective use of the most powerful weapon we have m our arsenal . . . Research and Development. It happens to be a weapon that we in the textile business have been woefully laggard in utilizing . . . especially in comparison with the way it has been brought to bear by other industries. _ The figures speak for themselves. We in the textile business are spending somewhere in the neighborhood of .6% of sales for research and development . . . which is just about one-seventh of the per centage that all U. S. industry averages in R & D expenditures. In fact, U. S. industry as a whole is in a mood to do some tall R & D spending over the next few years. Surveys taken by McGraw Hill's Economics Department, as reported in the May 18 issue of Business Week, indicate that the top U. S. companies plan to in crease their R & D spending between now and 1971 by a full 25%. And they expect to see some substantial rewards for their efforts in the form of marketable new products. On the average, U. S. businessmen predict that 17% of their sales in 1971 will be derived from new, or substantially new, products. In terms of 1967 dollars. 8- these U. S. producers are counting on sales of $121-billion from new products just three years from now. And how do we in the textile industry fit into that picture? t The answer is, we don't! That same Business Week article charts the expenditures for R & D by 15 separate industries, producers of both durable and non-durable goods. And where do we stand on that chart? Dead last. We were last in 1966 . . . last in 1967 . . . we'll be last again this year . . . and it's predicted that we'll have the dubious distinction of being last m 1971 ... as well. It's estimated, for example, that $50 million will be spent for research and development by textile mill product and apparel producers. Compare that with the six-billion three-hundred-ar.dforty-seven million-dollars that the areospace industry alone will spend this year for research and development. Compare it with the $4.2 billion to be spent for R A D by the electrical machinery and communications equipment industry. By comparison, our expenditures are a drop in the bucket. And by 1971, the situation won't be much better . . . unless we decide to do something about it now. Business Week estimates our FAD outlays in 1971 at something like $62 million The aerospace people will be up to $8.4 billion by then and the elect rical machinery and communications equipment people will be spending $5.3 billion. The total R A D in 1967 was $16,789 million which is 2.1% of the Gross National Product of $785 billion while textile and apparel R & D was 46 million or .25% of $18,700 million contribution to the Gross National Product. .25% is only 1/8 of the average industry rate. These figures remind me of another statement of facts which goes like this. The U.S.A. has 6%. of the World's population but does 50% of the work and consumes 40% of the raw material. Something to be proud of . . . but if what we read and hear is true, it is not because of textiles. Here we are on the defensive and must catch up. The only way appears to be through increased RAD. That doesn't mean the picture is all bad. Despite the low level of expenditures, our RAD has already managed to offset foreign competition in some areas. For instance, a number of U. S. companies have developed a synthetic backing for tufted carpets that is making inroads into the use of imported jute. 9 we're also using synthetic fabrics to replace imported jute in the fabrication of sandbags for the government. And in the sophisticated tire cord field, American-made products are still holding their own. Even when the foreign competition is particularly tough, R & D ingenuity can frequently find an answer. One example that comes to mind has to do with the marketing of soft side bags. About 60% of the bags sold in this country come from Japan and Korea. They're indistinguishable from the U. S.-made bags . . . but they're not made in factories . . . they're put together from pre-cut parts in private homes by women and children. So despite the import tax, these bags can be sold m the U.S.A. for 25% less than the ones we make. It would seem that this presents American competition with a hopeless task. Yet one American company is managing to meet the challenge. Through their own Research and Development, they've come up with a 100% molded bag of good appearance. And it is selling. So there's no reason to doubt that we can ... by developing new automated production processes. . .challenge the imports in other areas as well. Automation is, in still another way, a major factor governing the acceleration of our technology. Here again, we find ourselves lagging behind our foreign competition. In almost every area of textile equipment development . . . for weaving . . . knitting . . . and false twist texturizing . . . you'll find that the most efficient equipment has not been developed in the U.S.A. Our own textile equipment makers are not as active as their foreign competition. But one thing is certain. All of the current developments in patents, lab equipment, pilot equipment and certain forms of production . . . reveal quite clearly that new automated yarn and new fabric-forming processes are evolving. This could literally revolutionize the textile industry within the next 15 years. And it points up the fact that there is a very pressing need for American companies to gain leadership in the development of automated equipment. Still another factor that will influence the directions in which textile technology must evolve is the effect of our new Safety Codes. As you know, the Federal Government is very much concerned about reducing the number of injuries and fatalities caused by accidents in our industry. This is particularly true with respect to accidents caused by flammable fabrics, including clothing, drapes, carpets, bedding, etc. I have no doubt that the Safety Codes dealing with inflammability requirements will result in major changes in our fibers and textiles. Since the objective is worthwhile . . . and the government's pressure unrelenting . . . these changes could be brought about at revolutionary speed. 10 A third factor influencing our technology will be the role played by creative chemistry. The chemist has discovered how to put together a multitude of monomers to make fiber-forming polymers. So it appears now that instead of a limited number of polymers being used m fibers, a great number will emerge and be used for quality and styling at lower cost. Perhaps you've already seen how one major fiber producer has been tantalizing the public with a mystery ad for a new fiber that is claimed to be better than the best we now have. There'll be many more new and better fibers. Our tremendous volume of over 8 billion pounds of natural and synthetic fiber can economically support large quantities of specialty polymers and fibers. You can look forward to the appearance of inorganic fiber-forming polymers as weli as organic. It's feasible that asbestos will be replaced with a synthetic fiber . . . which could be a synthetic asbestos or a substitute that has the same characteristics of the asbestos fiber. It has been said that necessity is the mother of invention. The necessities involved m the military requirements of our Armed Forces will certainly affect our technology m many ways. For example, our military people feel that there is a need to cut the weight of their equipment by as much as 50% without any loss in performance. In the fabrics field, they're pursuing a very agressive program to accomplish this objective. The process of developing lightweight, synthetic tentage to replace cotton tentage is well under way. Improvements in ballistic fabrics are being pushed ... as well as in fabrics for military clothing. What they're looking for are super fabrics made from super fiber. And since military requirements tend to be very urgent in this day and age, you can expect developments in this area to proceed at a very fast pace. Demands on our technology will also be coming thick and fast as a result of new and varied industrial requirements. In addition to the demand for a chemical filter fiber, there's rising pressure for the development of special fibers and fabrics for use m both air and water pollution control. And the new field of oceanography is already making demands on us for both new fibers and fabrics. For example, a synthetic sea weed fabric has been developed as a curtain to protect harbors from storms and drifting sands. It is conceivable this will be used in tremendous quantities. One thing is certain. . . industrial requirements are going to be so far-ranging and varied that an entire speech could be devoted to the many ways in which this will make accelerating demands on our technology. 11 And who can doubt that we're going to be challenged by rapidly evolving fads and fashions in styling as well. We in the textile business live in a world of styling. Clothes, furniture, hones, automobiles and offices make great demands on our ingenuity for creating beautiful but durable fabrics. These demands will increase . . . and you can look for an even greater emphasis on colors. I wouldn't be surprised to see phosphors used for pigmen tation. Patents have already been issued and small samples of fibers with fluorescent and phosphorescent pigments have been seen. The timing is right for such a development . And, finally, you can look forward to stringent demands for improved Household Performance. The housewife wants much more than she's getting from our industry. She wants carpets that do not retain soil. . . and that are capable of keeping their good appearance for a generation. She wants drapes that don't fade and that resist soiling. She wants upholstery that has good abrasion and resists soiling. She wants sheets and pillow cases that can be washed and dried wrinkle-free. . . and still have a good feel to them. She wants all of this. . .plus inflammability . . . beauty . . . and lower prices as well. So it looks as if we've got our work cut out for us. There s a great deal that needs to be done. And I, for one, am proud to say that we at UNIROYAL are determined to do more than our share m bringing about an acceleration of technology in the textile field. And that's not all. There are many projects we're working on that I wish I was at liberty to discuss. But the important fact is not what we're doing . . . but that we've got to do much more'. When we were children, there was a game we played in which we could only take a giant step by requesting permission to do so. We had to ask, "May I?" And if we didn't, we were penalized. We are not children now. . .and this is not a game we're playing. If we're really determined to face up to our foreign competition and assure a great future for our industry, we've got to meet the challenge by accelerating our textile technology ... by spending far more for Research and Development. Only those who wait and ask, "May I?" before proceeding will be penalized. For the others . . . for those of us who are determined to seize the Research and Development initiative. . .the opportunities and the rewards can be limitless. 4 oc+oW i , ms 1\ October 3, 1566 900 P.M., Hotel Sershey.

Page -1- The Sales Promotion Committee met on October 3 1968 with repre sentatives of four member companies in attendance. One area of concern of this committee is the very real threat of imported Japanese asbestos textiles. At our meeting in Atlanta last June, it was suggested that we investigate the possibility of insti tuting "dumping" charges against the Japanese industry. Vie requested counsel to proceed through an approach to the Board of Trade Commiss ion. Hr. Flocken has submitted his comprehensive report on the subject. It can be suranarized briefly at this time by saying that we all feel that this apnroach has little chance of success. "Dumping" charges have been successful in a ratio of about 3 in 50. After exhaustive discussion, we feel that our complaint is indeed flimsy and the entire subject has been shelved. Many members have reported that Japanese cloth is demonstrably infer ior to cloth made in U.S.A. With this in mind, we obtained a roll of Japanese cloth and asked the' Technical Committee to arrange phys ical tests on it by each company. At this time we wish to express our appreciation to the Technical Committee under the leadership of John Hawkins for the report on the results of this testing. The test results of each company were sent to John Hawkins who compiled and submitted them to this committee. In general, the physicals were standard. However, they do reveal two areas which we feel could be exploited in the market. Despite the fact that they have a high asbestos content-ASTM Grade "A"--it was reported that they failed to pass a standard flame test. Members felt that this was because they (the Japanese) used acrylic fibers as a carrier. The cloth also had a relatively poor warp tensile. This was particularly revealed and emphasized in the heat aging test whereby the residual tenslles after heat aging were decidedly inferior to standards maintained by all member companies. In addition, one company was able to determine that the Japanese seemed able to use shorter fibers in their cloth than we in this country. This contributes to their lower costs but, in addition, causes lower tensile strengths. Copies of the report were given to member companies in attendance and copies will be sent to those companies who were unable to attend. It was decided that no collective action would be taken as a result of these tests but each member can use the report as he sees fit. He feel that the cloth does not represent an economic purchase in relation to its projected life and that the data can be helpful in proving this premise. (continued) Minutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -3- regulator7 statutes. With careful qualification. Counsel ventured to predict that the election of either of the major party candidates would not fundamentally alter the nature or substance of federal regulation of business practices. Experience under the Eisenhower Administration suggests that antitrust enforcement would be at least as significant in another Republican administration as it has been under the succeeding Democratic administration. However, Mr. Flocken suggested that new legislative action on the "conglom erate" problem was more likely under a Democratic administration. 5. The Fibre Producer's Report was given by ilr. M.P.Carson, Vice President - Sales, ASBESTOS CORPORATION LIIilTSD, Thetford iiines,?.Q. and his interesting and informative report is attached. 6. Guest-of-Honor, Miss Edith E. Cox, retired editor of ASBESTOS Magazine, was introduced by Mr. J.A. Bettes,Jr., a former president of the Institute. .Ir. Bettes paid fitting tribute to Miss Cox for her service to the asbestos industry for a period of more than fifty years. President Rainey presented Miss Cox with a memento of the occasion, and there was a standing ovation in her honor. Miss Cox responded most graciously, and said she appreciated very much the opportunity to attend the meeting. 7. President Rainey introduced Dr. A.G. Matamoros, Chief Economist of Armstrong Cork Company, A nationally recognized economist, Dr. Matamoros spoke on the subject: "Business Prospects and Problems in the Year Ahead". His talk was extremely interesting, and was foll owed by many questions from his audience. President Rainey thanked Dr. Matamoros on behalf of the members. 8. The committee reports were given by the respective chairmen: Air Hygiene & ilfg. Committee - H.H. Walter, Chairman Sales Promotion Committee - M.Q. Scowcroft, Chairman Technical Committee J.W. Hawkins, Chairman Fiber Testing Committee - G.F.A. Brink, Chairman The full.text of their reports is attached to these minutes. 9. President Rainey, following the report of the Air Hygiene Se rifg. Committee, stated that the 3oari\ of Governors had voted unanimous approval of that committee's recommendation in respect to adoption of 'wet-weaving' of asbestos fabrics, and had passed the following Resolution: - "The 3oard of Governors of the Asbestos Textile Inst itute, recognizing that every effort to control environmental dust problems should be encouraged wherever feasible and acting on the advice of the Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee, recommends that all member companies of the Institute consider adoption of the 'wet weaving* process with all deliberate speed."10 10. President Rainey announced that the 3oard of Governors had voted unanimously to set up a new committee tentatively titled "Environmental Control Committee", and asked Mr. C.L. Sheckler, Manager of Occupational Environmental Control, Johns-', hnville ,Corp., to comment on its purpose, nr. Sheckler mentioned that the new committee, as presently envisaged, would release news on Health Problems, handle liaison between companies on mutual problems, and also handle liaison with other groups like Insulation Mfgrs.

President Rainey announced that representatives of the member companies now serving on the 3oard of Governors would continue without change, and also, that the members of the Board had elected new officers to serve for the coming year, namely: President - 2.A. Schuman, Johns-manville Corp. Vice President - R.P. Clark, Uniroyal,Inc. Treasurer - M.Q. Scowcroft, Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc 12. ilr. Rainey announced that the next meeting of the A.T.I, would be held at the GRAND HOTEL, Point Clear, Ala. (near mobile) and the dates are February 6-7, 1969. This is a very famous hostelry, and those who have attended meetings of other associations there are sure that A.T.I. members and their wives will greatly enjoy their visit to the GRAND HOTEL.I 13. The meeting recessed for luncheon, during which "Jack" Rainey, retiring president was presented with an Atmos clock in apprec iation of his outstanding leadership of the Institute during the past two years, Ur.

Carson, Vice President-Sales ASBESTOS CORPORATION LIMITED, Thetford Mines, P. Q., Can. " You might be interested to have an outline of 1967 production figures for chrysotile asbestos fibre from major producing countries U.C.S.R. Canada Rhodesia U.S.A. 1,750,000 tons 1,500,000 200,000 130,000 It 11 11 Italy 100,000 II South Africa 14.0,000 It Cyprus Swaziland 22,000 II 14.0,000 11 Canada continues to be the major exporter of chrysotile in spite of Russia's position as the largest producer. Incidentally, it is doubtful that Russia is exporting spinning fibre in any quantity and Russian exports of asbestos cement grades have remained relative ly stable over the past seven years at 250,000 to 280,000 tons per annum, with about 150,000 tons shipped to the free world. Reports indicate that Rhodesian fibre is all being sold, although the market pattern has changed significantly since U.D.I. Of interest to A.T.I. members is the fact that spinning fibre shipments from Quebec production were running about 17# ahead of 1967 at the end of August, and I believe this will continue through the balance of 1968 and possibly be higher at the close of the year. The U.S. market had not been a significant factor in this increase. Improved economic conditions in Western Europe, Japan, and greater activities in some of the Socialist countries of Europe have con tributed to the increase in spinning fibre shipments. It has been reported that Casslar production has been reduced to 75,000 tons per annum and Clinton Creek is approaching full production. Nicolet has announced that its mine will be closed at the expiration of its labour contract on February 28,1969. (continued on Page -2-) AS3"ST0S FI3R3 REPORT - continued: Page -2 Pacific Asbestos in California is reportedly back to a 6-day week, 3 shifts per day, for an annual production rate of Iv5,000 tons. Reports continue to appear concerning new properties in Quebec, namely Albitibi and McAdam, but there is much uncertainty concerning the future of these Prospects. Western European economic recovery in 1968 has brought increased markets for all grades of fibre from Quebec. Although France was a serious question mark a few months ago, it is believed that the asbestos consuming industries in France will consume almost as much fibre as in 1967* The textile manufacturers seem to be less uncer tain at present time than they were a few months ago. Japan's improved economic conditions have meant increased consumption and the much rumoured expectation of a reduced rate of growth in the second half of 1968 has not materialized. The outlook for the remainder of 1968 looks favourable for all grades of fibre. The textile markets in Europe and Japan appear to be doing well and the expectation that the upward trend will con tinue is a good possibility. The domestic market does not convey as optimistic signs for 3-Group fibre. Price increases have been announced by a number of producers with % the increase for textile fibres effective January 1, 1969. Cassiar has announced price increases averaging 6.

Asbestos Health Seminar: The Seminar on October 2, 1968 was attended by all members of the committee and the topics presented there-in were subsequently discussed at the committee meeting. Bausch "< Lomb Automatic Dust Counter: Ilr. J.?. Wronski gave a report on the tests that were conducted at the Raybestos-. ianhattan plant in Manheim,Pa. The attempt to find a correlation between the Impinger and the Bausch !e Lomb Dust Counter lead to the conclusion that little correlation between the two instruments exists, particularly in regards to large particle size as well as in areas of high dust concentrations. This phenomenon is due to the low trapping velocity of the Bausch & Loinb Dust Counter, which is therefore not to be con* sidered as a replacement for the Impinger. However,the Bausch & Lomb Dust Counter has proven its feasibility as an excellent monitoring device. Mr. C.L. Sheckler reported on the Membrane-Filter Method and will present a paper on that method at the next meeting. Dust Control in the Manufacturing; Process: Equipment designed for the reduction of dust in the various operations of textile manu facturing was extensively discussed: L. A bag opening, emptying and storage system, designed by Barkley & Dexter, Inc. 2. A bag dumper, designed by the Wilkra Co. 3. Bag opening and handling devices, designed by the member companies. h. Various systems of moving blends to cards. 5. Balloonlesa spinning and twisting. 6. Wet weaving One member company reported on a balloonless spinning frame based on the woolen system. Balloonless spinning seems to be desirable Inasmuch as the absence of a balloon results in a much lower dust count. Woolen type spinning frames operate usually at a considerable higher spindle speed than those now being used in the asbestos tex tile industry. As a result broken ends will stir up a great deal of dust. It is therefore imperative that the spindle will stop as soon as an end breaks. The manufacturer of the spinning framehas designed an automatic spindle stop notion and is at present experimenting with such a device, which is similar to the one already being used on balloonless twisting frames. Page-2Minutes - Air Hygiene 3c i-ianufac curing Committee - continued: It ia hoped that top management will agree to an open exchange of health safety ideas, including designs, plans, photographs and visitors in areas of mutual interest in regards to the reduction or (if ever possible) total elimination of dust in the manufacturing process. The members of the committee agreed to have technical infor mation concerning health safety practices on hand at the next meeting. Members of the committee stressed the point that dry weaving of asbestos cloth presents one of the greatest health safety problems in the production of asbestos textiles. To achieve the tentative ACGIH threshold limit values of 2MPPCF of air or the alternate, 12 fibres per cc-5 microns+, engineering asbestos dust abatement in the dry weaving process is,it appears, an impossible task. Wet weaving throughout the industry, however, will achieve tremendous strides towards accomplishing the standards recommended by the United States Public Health Service and the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists. It is also essential to produce and manufacture a product that will provide the fabricator and user maximum health safety. Again this can- only be accomplished by the process of wet woven cloth. This material (wet woven cloth) is less dusty and therefore less hazardous. The Air Hygiene 3c Manufacturing Committee respectfully urges immed iate action by the Board of Governors to coordinate this matter with all ATI standing committees and follow up with specific recommendation for industry-wide action.

Everyone was impressed with the impact of the symposium held on Wednesday, afternoon (October 2,1968). No one can be more concerned than the responsible members of our committee. And yet we are frustrated at our inability to come up xvith concrete proposals for collective action. We are not short on suggestions. 3ut after thorough discuss ion# and excellent professional advice from Mr. Flocken (Counsel) we end up deciding that collective action would introduce far more problems than it would solve. Education of our sales forces and our customers seems to be the only constructive tool we have at this time. Finally, we discussed once more the purchasing procedures of the Federal Government and the hardships they impose on members. Though we made an attempt this year to try to have them alter the system, we were not successful. As long as the system works--as it does-- to the advantage of the Government, there is no chance here to alter it. Again, no collective action seems advisable and efforts will be discontinued.

Minutes: The Technical Committee, Fiber Testing Committee, and ASTM D-13, A-4 met in a joint session to discuss data recently obtained from the Round Robin test on asbestos textile products. The information was studied statistically and the conclusions were that there is too much variation between laboratories to consider writing an ASTM Magnetic Specification at this time, both the Turner and Mapes gave question able values. Recommendations were heard that a second series of tests be started and to have a representative from Bell Asbestos Mines, Mr. Walter Smith, rooniter techniques and personally bring the samples into the member companies laboratory. This assignment should be completed prior to the February meeting. Magnetic standards were discussed and Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Nicodemus will consider using electrical techniques in the preparation and measurements of the proposed standards. The ATI technical group and ASTM A-4 met after the first session. Mr. Nicodemus acted as chairman and Mr. Harris as secretary. Mr. Nicodemus stated that a volume resistivity test would be of value and that an ASTM method should be included to cover this type of test. Mr. Nicodemus will work on this method. The Heat Aging test was discussed and an additional Round Robin test will be necessary before working on this procedure. ASTM 1573, as written up, will require modifications. The data obtained from a Round Robin test on a Japanese cloth was reviewed and the variations between laboratories noted. It is thought that the Japanese cloth in general is inferior to most American made equivalents. The mercury contamination clause in several military specifications was discussed and the problems encountered by the manufacturer in complying. Respectfully submitted, John W.

The Bell Asbestos Mines people kindly offered to supply a gentleman for this purpose. The number of samples,etc., to meet statistical requirements will be investigated by Bill Streib and detailed instructions for the Round Robin will be issued by the Technical Committee chairman. 1.3 It was recommended that the primary standard for magnetic rating be defined in terms of a basic electrical measurement, i.e., so many millivolts at a definite applied voltage Mr. Bernard Lincoln and Paul Nicodemua agreed to commence work on this specification. (continued) Minutes - Fiber Testing Committee - continued: Page -2- ll4, The preliminary work done since the June meeting to find a suitable source for iron ore as a secondary calibrating standard to replace NBS magnetic sample 29a was reviewed, A graph was circulated indicating that an almost perfect cor relation was possible, if an iron ore supplied by the Depart ment of Energy, Mines & Resources, Ottawa, was ground fine enough. 1*5 The replacement of the present T,& N. glass specimen holders with a suitable plastic to eliminate breakage was recommended and the packing thereof was discussed. A specimen holder fabricated from Kylon 101 - Type 66 was circulated for exam ination. 2. Spicular & Qrit Content of Spinning Fibers:- The results of preliminary experimental work to develop a suitable test method for measuring the spicular & grit content of spinning fibers were discussed. Fractions recovered by hydrocycloning were circulated for examination. The committee is faced with deter mining what constitutes an objectionable spicule,etc. It was agreed that exploratory work on this test procedure would continue. 3. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical (Dust study, Produot Handling & Colour Test) and ASTM D-30 (Sub III) Committee (Reorg anization, T.& N. Wet Classifier Sc Rotap Test) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. I4.. The need for a better method for measuring fibre length was expressed by Joe Wronski. The work being done on this score at the QAI1A Sherbrooke Laboratory was mentioned.

Schuman introduced Mr. Haven C. Roosevelt of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, who replaces Mr. P. Jay Flocken as Legal Counsel for the Institute. A brief summary of Mr. Roosevelt's remarks follows: "Counsel briefly outlined the antitrust activity of the Justice Department during 1968 and then discussed a problem which he termed the unreal security of governmental assistance in private standardization activities. Counsel noted that although the federal government may encourage and eventually approve private voluntary standards, the activities of a trade association and its members are not immune from antitrust attack by either the govern ment or private parties. He cited the case Structural Laminates vs Douglas Fir Plywood Association for the proposition that private standardization and certification activities may involve litigation from private plaintiffs. He also reviewed the recent case of U. S. vs Automobile Manufacturers Associat ion, et al and the position of the Justice Department with respect to infor mal standards developed by the Bureau of Standards and industry representa tives, noting that voluntary standards resulting from a cooperative govern ment - industry effort could involve undue or unreasonable restraints of trade. Counsel cited the Noerr doctrine and explained its impact as a major exception to vulnerability from antitrust attack on unreasonably restrictive standards." 5. The Fibre Producers Report was given by Mr. R. P. Gagnon, Vice President, ASARCO INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, Black Lake, Quebec, and who is also Direct or of Sales for Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd. President Schuman thanked Mr. Gagnon for his excellent report and same is attached to these minutes. 6. President Schuman introduced Mr. James W. Bolmeyer, Marketing Manager for "NOMEX", E. I. DuPont de Nemours & Co. "Nomex" is the trademark for DuPont's High Temperature Resistant Nylon. An abstract of Mr. Bolmeyer's talk follows: "The unusual behavioral properties of "Nomex" nylon, a high temperature resistant fibre and its industrial applications in 100% form were covered. Also covered was the complementary role played by "Nomex" in fiber and yarn blend fabrics with asbestos as a means of opening new market opportunities for both fibers. Laboratory data illustrating the performance properties of "Nomex" was shown. Samples of industrial fabrics and protect ive garments were displayed." Mr. Bolmeyer's talk was very interesting, and he plans to send literature to those in attendance at the meeting. (The mailing list, including members who could not be at this meeting, was given to him by the Secretary.) 7. President Schuman reported the passing of Mr. R. S. Tallman, the pres ident of Tallman-McCluskey Fabrics Company on December 17, 1968, and Mr. John F. D. Rohrbach, Chairman of the Board, Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc., on December 25, 1968, asking that members stand for a moment in tribute to them. Both of these men were staunch supporters of the Institute over a period of many years.8 8. President Schuman expressed our appreciation for the attendance at this meeting of Mr. and Mrs. lMn. J.W. Smith of Bell Asbestos Mines, Ltd., who traveled over nearly impassable roads from Thetford Mines to Montreal (due to heavy snowstorm) in order to be present. Also, he mentioned our pleasure at having Mr. B. Lincoln present (who flew in from Manchester, England) and Mr. K. W. Nelson who journeyed from Salt Lake City, Utah. Other welcome guests were; Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Atkinson (Retired); J. W. Frampton and C. D. Colson of Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc., and F. C. Phillips of Uniroyal. Minutes - General .Meeting - continued! Page -3- 9. President Schuman read a letter from Mr. Jesse T. Griffis, a former president of the Institute, who is convalescing at his home in Charlotte, North Carolina from a heart attack, in which Jesse expressed his apprec iation of the poinsetta sent him by the A.T.I. last Christmas. 10.

FEBRUARY 6, 1969 The asbestos fibre report this year will sound quite different from what you have been used to hearing in the past. The supply and demand situation has changed during the course of 1968, and we seem to be entering into a period where demand will exceed supply. The general booming economics throughout the world have brought in creased demand for chrysotile asbestos. This has been true in practically all types of asbestos manufacturing. At the end of 1968, the Q.A.M.A. inventories are at their lowest level for many years, reduced by 47,000 tons from that of last year. In ventories of spinning fibres have been cut in half from what they were in 1967. This will further indicate the different supply conditions our in dustry now faces. It would seem to me therefore, that the asbestos producers will have to take an entirely diffenent marketing approach in 1969. As it seems a distinct possibility that a shortage of chrysotile fibre could develop during the course of the year. As a matter of information, I would like to give you a brief resume of the present outlook in the various areas. The United States market, as you all know, has been one of growth in demand particularly during the last six months. Outside the U.S., the United Kingdom and Continental Europe are our most important market. Their economies generally seem buoyant and it is believed that 1969 will be a year of continued growth in demand. The Far East, and more specifically, Japan is presently selling an unprecedented amount of asbestos cement sheets. One can assume that much of this growth is due to Expo 70; however, in Japanese business circles, it is believed that after the fair, there will be considerable emphasis i given to housing projects which should increase the demand for asbestos. Strangely enough, the countries that can least afford asbestos are those that require the product most. The underdeveloped countries are still very much in need of our product, and efforts must be made by both industry and government to find ways and means to insure a continuity of supply to these emerging nations. The number of inquiries for the supply of Canadian asbestos fibre being received from the Eastern Countries is constantly growing. The tonn age required is such that it is difficult to even consider their request. This would indicate that Russia will not increase their exports to the Satellite Countries in 1969. It is also felt that their overall export policy will not change to any extent in the coming year. In other words, Russian fibre will not have any alleviating effect on the supply/demand conditions expected to prevail in our market areas. As to production, we do nrt anticipate much increase "ver what was produced in 1968 although producers may endeavour to increase their out put with their increased demand. Therefore, in general, we can look for greater demand, a possible shortage and hopefully for all concerned, better revenues. R. P.

D.uincoln, Turner . bewail LTD.; on February 5#1969 to hear a report from -:r. C.L. Sheckler about the latest development of legislation and litigation in regard to occupational and environmental health. The objectives of the newly formed Environmental Study Committee were discussed. Bausch - Lor,ib .mtomatlc i.-ust Counter: ilr, U. 1. ' illingham reported about "his experience with the 3ausch Lomb Dust Counter. He found a rather consistent correlation between the .ddget Impimger and the bausch Lomb wust Counter. It was agreed upon to exchan, e data, charts and reports concerning both dust counting methods between member companies and to forward the material to the chairman of this committee for distribution. It was also taken into consideration to forward said material to Dr. L.J. Cralley for further evaluation. i 'enbrane-Filter >ethod: The membrane-filter method was explained in detail "by . r. heckler, and a paper distributed to committee members. This method appears the most suitable one for fiber counts. Dust Control in the manufacturing Process: One member company report ed about a totally enclVsVn"b"lVndinL fine, vacuum cleaning of bags at the receiving point, use of rubber gloves during the process of oag opening, and discontinuance of the use of burlap bags. Another member reported about balloonless spinning and twisting frames equipped with automatic spindle stop motion. The same company "sported also about humidification and exhaust systems. All member companies contributed openly ant. freely to a most valueable exchange of ideas in regard to dust reducing equipment and mfg. methods. Numerous pictures showing a variety of dust reducing equipment were circulated among committee members. Vet eaving: The necessity of wet-weaving to provide adequate dust control at that operation was a; ain stressed by all members of the committee. It is recognized that improved finishing methods are needed for wet-woven fabrics to obtain customer acceptance.

The Sales Promotion Committee met on February 6, 1969 with rep resentatives of five member companies in attendance. This committee is concerned, as are all members of the Institute, with the problems of health hazards involving the processing and use of asbestos textile materials and the resulting publicity. As sales people, we find ourselves most frequently involved in responding to our own field forces and our customers. The committee was greatly pleased to learn that a new committee had been formed in the Institute headed by ilr. C.L.^heckler of Johns-hanville. This new committee will be called the Environmental Study Committee. We feel that the work to be performed by this committee can be immensely beneficial to our industry. It was suggested that the data gathered auid presented in the form of a report could be used by member companies when res ponding to inquiries regarding health hazards. The impact behind sui Institute report, it was felt, would be more impressive than comments from any single company. The problem of imported asbestos cloth from Japan was discussed. Between meetings, it was suggested to the committee that an effort be made to persuade the Federal Trade Commission to have asbestos protective equipment manufactured from Japanese cloth be so labeled. Counsel, both in and out of the committee, was consulted. The sum advice was that the chore of successfully attaining such lofty goals would be far beyond ' the scope of the Institute. One more made rec ently in this area was a letter written by the president of the Institute to the president of the United States Steel Corp. comp limenting him on his recent public statement whereby he urged that employees of his company purchase American-made automobiles to help preserve the position of domestic steel producers. Most will remember that the committee used to have the task of placing the ATI display cabinets in universities around the country. Some months ago, this asbestos display ( needing extensive refurbishing) was "retired11 from circulation and placed in storage at Raybestosllanhattan,Inc., lianheim, ?a. R/Ji's new office building will be com pleted in October 1969, and it is planned to display the cabinets in the lobby of that building upon its completion. One major problem discussed in detail at our meeting was the serious shortage of better grades of asbestos fiber. The reason for existence of the Sales Promotion Committee is to find and exploit new markets for asbestos textile products, le wonder wether we are creating a sort of "Frankenstein" when we develop such markets in view of the fiber shortage and we view with alarm information presented to this meeting this morning such as the report on fiber presented by a representative of the mining member companies.

Minutes; The Technical Committee met with the Fiber Testing Committee in joint session to discuss the Round Robin test conducted by Mr. Walter Smith of Bell Asbestos Mines. In addition to Mr. Smith, others in attendance were - Mr. Lincoln, Mr. Kuntze, and Mr. Ed Farrell. The conclusions from the Round Robin test are: 1. Calibration standards in different laboratories were not the same. 2. The textiles being sampled had a great variation. 3. Using the identical standard with the identical textile sample, the same magnetic rating was obtained on all T & N apparatuses. 4. Many of the test instruments were not working properly and the instruments, other than the T & N, were constructed differently. Test data will be considered at the March 5, ASTM meeting prior to starting on Specification D 1118. Information will be sent to J/M for statistical study. Specification D 628 on Woven and Braided Tubing was reviewed, several changes were necessary for clarification on the speci fication. Several of these changes were suggested by the Editorial Committee. In June we will begin work on the Heat Aging Specification, ASTM D 1573. There has not been any activities on Military or Federal Specifications recently. Respectfully submitted. John W. Hawkins Chairman CW<_ rXO , IS6|  -2Minutes - General Meeting O 1.

He reviex*ed the FTC's pre-merger notification requirements * and recent remarks by Attorney General Mitchell regarding mergers* Counsel also briefly recited some of the reasoning and policy behind the Admin istration's hard line in attacking mergers and . attempting to slow merger activity. He dealt primarily with one of the reasons - reciprocity, or other forms of unfair buyer-seller leverage -- noting that reciprocity was a problem which almost . all businessmen encounter in one form or another* Counsel explained the recent complaint in the case against United States Steel and reviewed some of the terms of the proposed consent decree. lie concluded that in order to avoid successful attack, all pur chasing decisions of a company should be made on the basis of price, quality and service rather than on the basis of whether or not a prospective seller is also a good customer of the company."1 ' 5* At this point in the meeting President Schuman asked each person present to stand and identify himself and his company, 6* President Schuman announced that the Board of Governors had unanimously approved the application of Nicolet Industries, Inc., for Regular Membership in the Institute, and extended to that company a most cordial welcome to participate in our activities* 7.

Gnam on behalf of the Asbestos Textile Institute, comments pertaining to the proposod legislation ER 2503* iir. Sheckler pointed out to Hr* Gnam that HR 2503 is too broad and non-specific in its provisions and as it related only to asbestos would vest all authority in the Lent, of HZU, including inspection authority which would, in effect, duplicate the existing and proposed responsibilities of the Dept, of Labor. Hence a separate act, such as the proposed HR 2503 relating only to the asbestos industry, is unnecessary and also undesirable. . Hr.

P. Carson, Vice Pres* Salo3, ASBESTOS CORPORATION LTD. Shipments from Quebec were down 6.7 percent at the end of Hay 1969 as compared with the five-month period in 1968. This was partly due to the unsettled labour situation.in the St, Lawrence River earlier in the spring. Shipping companies in many cases^refused to place vessels in Ticntreal, Quebec and Three Rivers pending a settlement of disputes. The settlement was forthcoming in the ports and shipping at present has returned to normal. Host companies in Quebec have recently settled labour negotiations with unions. In our company's case, an agreement to the end of . 1971 has been negotiated. Thus, one can expect a period of , stability. ' There are acute shortages of quality Group 3 fibre. While there has been no apparent change in shipments to the U. S. market as compared with last year, there appears to be a decrease in avail ability of Group 3. This decrease, in availability has beem re ferred to in past reports as far as British Columbia is concerned, and a similar situation has developed in Quebec. Overseas markets have been strong generally in Group 3, It is notable that the Q.A.1I.A. inventory for Group 3 bas been reduced by 70$ since Nay 31st, 1968, In asbestos cement grades, strong demand continues for Groups I4., 5 and 6. Narket reports from various areas highlight shortages in quality L\. Group fibres. Group 5 and 6 are in quite short supply for a/c applications, although some quantities of brake lining 5's and.6's are still available. Shorts seea to be moving as i*ell as in 1968, with some shortfalls reported. The closing of the Nicolet I line earlier this year has reduced the availability of shorts. To attempt to satisfy part of the apparent demand of the next few years, our company is increasing production in the Thetford area. We are hopeful of adding 10jS to last year's total production. Plans to bring Asbestos Hill into production at the rate of _ , 100,000 tons per year are progressing favourably. Mid-1972 i3 the target date. The ore will bo concentrated at Ungava, trans ported to Europe, where a finishing plant vrill complete the job. The Penhale orebody is under development. This latter will not mean additional tonnage, as it will replace Normandie, which will be depleted by 1974- There are other prospects still under study in Canada and Australia, but these are not considered to be at the stage where future production can be anticipated. cont'd Pibre Producer's Report As far as one can confirm, Rhodesian fibre is still finding markets, and it is assumed there is no build-up of inventory there, Russia has made no new moves to increase its share of world markets and still retains about 250,000 tons, including shipments to Socialist Europe, Some Socialist countries in Europe are increasing their purchases of Canadian fibre, perhaps indicating some difficulties in obtaining more Russian supplies. o Minutes of the A.T.I.

Magnetic Rating Test 2.1 The outcome of the recent Magnetic Rating Round Robin on three (3) asbestos fibers and ten (10) textile products, conducted under the guidance of Mr, './alter Smith at diff erent laboratory locations, and the conclusions based on the statistical analyses of the results by the Johns-Ilan- Corp, were reviewed at a joint session with members of Sub A--Ip, ASTM Committee D-13, and the ATI Technical Comm ittee on the 18th June. Eighteen persons were in atten dance at the joint session. The findings of the statistical analyses were as follows: . 2.1.1 The two test methods give essentialy the same average, but are not necessarily the same for each sample. 2.1.2 There was no difference due to company alone on either test. 2.1.3 Isolated odd results seemed to occur with both the asbestos fibers and the asbestos textile products which could not be fully explained. However, in the case of the latter, these were probably due to variations in the magnetic content of the samples sent to each laboratory. 1.1.Ip Although there were some erratic results, the Round Robin Test was an improvement over -the previous one. 1.2 It was mutually agreed at the joint session that the new ASTM procedure would be based on the T. 5s N. apparatus on account of its apparent advantages; and a motion to this effect was passed at the 19th June meeting of the Fiber Testing Committee. ;./ork was commenced on the first draft of the new ASTii Method of Test for Magnetic Rating of Asbestos Fiber and Textile Products under the guidance of Mr. Paul ilicodemus.

Carl Gnam of the Miscell aneous Iletals & Minerals Division (DSA) of the Department of Commerce in March, it was recommended that page (F) of Spec ification P-3-RLj. be amended to read as follows: *(F) Magnetic Rating: The following types of chrysotile asbestos shall qualify in terms of magnetic rating as follows; Magnetic Rating Recommended Use Less than 1.0 ----- Electrical. 1.0 but less than 2.0 -- Certain Electrical S: General Purpose. 2.0 and above -------------- - General Purpose.* 2.2 The Technical Committee Chairman will advise >Ir. Gnam of the joint session's recommendation 3. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical (Colour Test) and ASTM D-30 (Sub III) Committees (Eotap t Moisture Content Tests) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. 4. Spicular and Grit Content of Spinning Fibers 4.1 The results of experimental work to develop a suitable test method for measuring the spicular u grit content of spinning fibers were discussed and fractions recovered from three hydrocyclones in series were examined. The Committee recommended that work on this score be continued; and that other appro aches such as the elutriation of the longer McIIett fractions in the Crudy Content apparatus be considered as well as hydrocycloning. A progress report is to be submitted at the next meeting. Respectfully submitted, G.F.A.

Also, members of the Fiber Testing Committee Messrs. Dewey Childress, Wm. Strieb, Walter Smith, Karl Shock, Donald Frost, and Sudhakas Dixit. Minutes: The first draft of ASTM Specification D-1118, Magnetic Rating of Asbestos was started. Information is being obtained from Mr. Lincoln of T & N on the electrical circuit to be included in the specification. Mr. Walter Smith is supplying information on sample preparation. The National Stockpile Specification P-3-R4 on Spinnable Asbestos Fibers was discussed; recommendations are being made that three categories be included - 1 MR and under, over 1 MR but less than 2, and fibers over 2 MR. ' MIL-I-3053, Insulation, Electrical, Asbestos Fiber, Treated and Untreated. This specification needed a lot of changes and the Technical Committee of the ATI has offered to assist the appropriate representatives in the revision. MIL-P-16404 on Asbestos Packings was reviewed and several changes suggested. HH-P-41C on Asbestos Rope & Wick was reviewed and a tolerance on weight for this specification was recommended. MIL-I-24244 was reviewed and this specification is currently undergoing changes in the chemical analysis. A new technique for determining the asbestos content -by the fluoroborate technique was discussed. The next ASTM specification to be revised will be D-1573 on Heat Ageing. Respectfully submitted.

The major topic of discussion was the letter written on Hay 5th by the Naval Ship Engineering Center of the Department of the Navy,to, we presume, all companies involved,or interested in hightemperature insulating materials. This letter said in part ... ''The serious hazards of asbestos have recently received widespread, publicity and have generated a high level of interest concerning its use by the TJ. S. Navy as an insulating material." It went on to point out that the chief hazard existed wherever there was a ' possibility of dust evolution during fabrication, installation and rip-out. Further, it said ... "In order to minimize thehazards associated with the use of asbestos and therefore reduce the possibility of deleterious effects to the workers, a compre hensive study has been initiated by the Naval Ship Engineering Center, Ilyattsville, Hd, to investigate the feasibility of sub stituting alternate materials for asbestos used as lagging, piping and boiler insulation," Our committee discussed this problem in depth as it related to an important segment of our business - textiles. Several member com panies responded individually to the Navy with letters of protest. There was no direct action taken by the committee 'itself A motion was passed to recommend to the Board of Governors that representatives of the Environmental Study Committee contact the concerned persons at the Navy in Ilyattsville for a conference on the problem. We felt that our current concern is involved with learning as much as we could about their progress and the degree of their intent and that information could best be obtained by the environmental Study Committee rather than the Saleg Promotion Committee In an effort to have information on the Asbestos Textile Industry get wider distribution, we discussed the possibility of arranging froe subscriptions to the trade magazine "Asbestos." We are thinking of engineering college libraries among other institutions. It was agreed to propose a program to the Board of Governors. A notion to do so was made and passed at tills meeting. Two Years ago, we investigated the possibility of instituting an advertising program sponsored by the Institute. After same pre liminary work was accomplished, each member of the committee checked the subject with his own corporate executives. The reports back at that time were lukewarm at best and the matter subsequently was dropped. However, the Committee itself has not lost its enthusiasm for the project. Because of the increase in unfavorable publicity on asbestos during tho ensuing time, members felt that their respective managements might be more receptive and that tho program should be reinvestigated. The subject attracted spirited cont*d u . -zllinutes - Sales Promotion committee discussion but no specific action was talren at this meeting other than to put the subject on the agenda for the October meeting. The meeting was adjourned early in order that members could attend the important meeting of the Air Hygiene and Manufacturing Com mittee meeting attended by two representatives of the U. S. Public Health Service. Respectfully submitted, H. Q, Scowcroft Chairman u ) June 19, 1969 - Seaview Country Club, Abescon, IT. J. In Attendance H. H.Ualter, Chairman L. E. lioody II. Fleming R, C.

The members of the committee agreed to further pursue the develop ment of a method for correlating dust counts obtained by the Midget Iir.pinger and the Bosch Sc Lomb Du3t Counter. This attempt appears to be important in regards to the acceptance of datas from the Bosch cc Lomb Dust Counter by governmental agencies as well as for the evaluation of such datas within the plants. The Dosch Sc Lomb Dust Counter will be transferred shortly from the Uniroyal plant in Hogansville to H.K. Porter. Mr. Earl hells dust count technician of Uniroyal - will discuss his datas and ex perience with the technician of H.K. Porter. It is planned that at a later date the dust count technicians of all member companies get together, exchange their datas and experience end develop a method for the proper use of the Bosch Sc Lomb Dust Counter and a correlation to the Midgit Impinger.

He reviewed the FTC's pre-merger notification requirements 9 and recent remarks by Attorney General Mitchell regarding mergers. Counsel also briefly recited some of the reasoning and policy behind the Admin istration's hard line in attacking mergers and attempting to slow merger activity. He dealt primarily with one of the reasons - reciprocity, or other forms of unfair buyer-seller leverage noting that reciprocity was a problem which almost all businessmen encounter in one form or another. Counsel explained the recent complaint in the case against United States Steel and reviewed some of the terms of the proposed consent decree. He concluded that in order to avoid successful attack, all pur chasing decisions of a company should be made on the basis of prioe, quality and service rather than on the basis of whether or not a prospective seller is also a good customer of the company,* 5* At this point in the meeting President Schuman asked each person present to stand and identify himself and his company, 6, President Schuman announced that the Board of Governors had unanimously approved the application of Nicolet Industries, Ino,, for Regular Membership in the Institute, and extended to that company a most cordial welcome to participate in our activities, 7.

Speaking from a background of over 35 years experience in the Packing Industry iir. Fisher gave a most interesting and informative talk on various forms of packings and the design principles involved in making them effective for a multiplicity of applications and operating conditions, liany samples were displayed illustrating points made as his talk progressed, and at its conclusion copies of his paper were given to those in attendance. President Schuman thanked iir, Fisher on behalf of the Hoard of Governors and Members and a fine round of applause was given .Ir.

C.L. Sheckler, Chairman of the recently formed Environmental Study Committee, to give a brief report on the current activity of that committee. Mr. Sheckler said that one major objective of the committee was to keep members of the Institute informed on legislation affecting our industry, and in this connection he urged everyone to read the revised Nal3h-Kealy act now in effect for public contracts in respect to environmental working conditions involving dust counts and also noise levels. Hentione:.. his current discussions with the U.S.P.II. Service in reference their policy and procedure on reporting significant findings of clinical eraminations of employees to the individual1 family physician, but not to the company physician. He stressed the necessity for the company physician to lcnow which employees are in need of medical attention. (continued) Minutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -I4. - ,j?. Sheckler reported that he had written llr. C.A. Gnam, in the U.o. Dept, of Commerce, on hay 6, 1969, giving nr. Gnam on behalf of the Asbestos Textile Institute, comments pertaining to the proposed legislation HR 2503. hr. Sheckler pointed out to Iir, Gnam that HR 2503 is top broad and non-specific in its provisions, and as it related only to asbestos would vest all authority in the Dept, of HEW, including inspection authority which would, in effect, duplicate the existing and proposed responsibilities of the Dept, of Labor. Hence a separate act, such as the proposed HR 2503 relating only to the asbestos industry, is unnecessary and also undesirable. Mr. Cheekier touched on some miscellaneous medical scientific reports concerning the biological effects on animals of asbestos in conjunction with pulmonary diseases. In concluding his remarks Hr. Cheekier announced thata new member of his committee was Dr.J.H. Uolfsie, Corporate Medical Director, Uniroyal,Inc.. Other members of the Environmental Study Committee are:-Dr.J.L.

Work was commenced on the first draft of the new ASTH Method of Test for Magnetic Rating of Asbestos Fiber and Textile Products under the guidance of Hr. Paul ilicodemus. Chairman of Sub A-lj., ASTH Comm.

Dated lbth November. 195fT~ ~ 2.1 In response to a request from fir. Carl Gnam of the Miscell aneous Metals fc Minerals Division (DSA) of the Department of Commerce in March, it was recommended that page (F) of Spec ification P-3-Rl|. be amended to read as follows: (F) Magnetic Rating: The following types of chrysotile asbestos shall qualify in terms of magnetic rating as follows: Magnetic Rating Recommended Use Less than 1.0 ----- Electrical. 1.0 but less than 2.0 -- Certain Electrical & General Purpose. 2.0 and above ------------ -- General Purpose.' 2.2 The Technical Committee Chairman will advise Mr. Gnam of the joint session's recommendation 3. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical (Colour Test) and ASTM D-30 (Sub III) Committees (Rotap & Moisture Content Tests) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. i|.. Spicular and Grit Content of Spinning Fibers l+.l The results of experimental work to develop a suitable test method for measuring the spicular & grit content of spinning fibers were discussed and fractions recovered from three hydrocyclones in series were examined. The Committee recommended that work on this score be continued; and that other appro aches such as the elutriation of the longer Mcllett fractions in the Crudy Content apparatus be considered as well as hydrocycloning. A progress report is to be submitted at the next meeting. Respectfully submitted, G.F.A.

T. Austin J. D. McCluer G. E. Houghton J. W. Hawkins Johns-Manville American Asbestos Uniroyal H. K. Porter Co. Garlock, Inc. Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. During the Wednesday afternoon session (June 18), Messrs. George Harris, Paul Nicodemus, Paul Smith, and Bill Eckerd attended as ASTM A-4 members. Also, members of the Fiber Testing Committee Messrs. Dewey Childress, Wm. Strieb, Walter Smith, Karl Shock, Donald Frost, and Sudhakas Dixit. Minutes: The first draft of ASTM Specification D-1118, Magnetic Rating of Asbestos was started. Information is being obtained from Mr. Lincoln of T & N on the electrical circuit to be included in the specification. Mr. Walter Smith is supplying information on sample preparation. The National Stockpile Specification P-3-R4 on Spinnable Asbestos Fibers was discussed; recommendations are being made that three categories be included - 1 MR and under, over 1 MR but less than 2, and fibers over 2 MR. MIL-I-3053, Insulation, Electrical, Asbestos Fiber, Treated and Untreated. This specification needed a lot of changes and the Technical Committee of the ATI has offered to assist the appropriate representatives in the revision. MIL-P-16404 on Asbestos Packings was reviewed and several changes suggested. HH-P-41C on Asbestos Rope & Wick was reviewed and a tolerance on weight for this specification was recommended. MIL-I-24244 was reviewed and this specification is currently undergoing changes in the chemical analysis. A new technique for determining the asbestos content by the fluoroborate technique was discussed. The next ASTM specification to be revised will be D-1573 on Heat Ageing. Respectfully submitted, John W. Hawkins Chairman MINUTES - SALES PROMOTION COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute - June 19, 1969 Seaview Country1- Club, Abaecon, Hew Jersey The Sales Promotion Committee met on June 19th with representatives of five member companies in attendance. The major topic of discussion was the letter written on May 5th by the Naval Ship Engineering Center of the Department of the Navy, to, we presume, a.%1 companies involved or interested in hightemperature insulating materials. This letter said in part ... "The serious hazards of asbestos have recently received widespread publicity and have generated a high level of interest concerning its use by the U, S, Navy as an insulating material." It went on to point out that the chief hazard existed wherever there was a possibility of dust evolution during fabrication, installation and rip-out. Further, it said . "In order to minimlza the hazards associated with the use of asbestos and therefore reduce the possibility of deleterious effects to the workers, a compre hensive study has been initiated by the Naval Ship Engineering Center, Hyattsville, I-id. to investigate the feasibility of sub stituting alternate materials for asbestos used as lagging, piping and boiler insulation," Our committee discussed this problem in depth as it related to an important segment of our business - textiles. Several member com panies responded individually to the Navy with letters of protest. There was no direct action taken by the committee itself, A motion was passed to recommend to the Board of Governors that representatives of the Env.ironmentsJ. Study Committee contact the concerned persons at the Navy in Hyattsville for a conference on the problem. We felt that our current concern is involved with learning as much as we could about their progress and the degree of their intent and that information could best be obtained by the environmental Study Committee rather than the Saleg Promotion Committee* In an effort to have information on the Asbestos Textile Industry get wider distribution, we discussed the possibilit2r of arranging free subscriptions to the trade magazine "Asbestos." We are thinking of engineering college libraries among other institutions. It was agreed to propose a program to the Board of Governors. A notion to do so was made and passed at this meeting. Two Years ago, we investigated the possibility of instituting an advertising program sponsored by the Institute. After some pre liminary v;ork was accomplished, each member of the committee checked the subject with his o^m corporate executives. The reports back at that time were lukewarm at best and the matter subsequently was dropped. However, the Committee itself has not lost its enthusiasm for the project. Because of the increase in unfavorable publicity on asbestos during the ensuing time, members felt that their respective managements might be more receptive and that the program should be reinvestigated. The subject attracted spirited corit'd -2> Minutes - Sales Promotion committee discussion but no specific action was tal:en at this meeting other than to put the subject on the agenda for the October meeting. The meeting was adjourned early in order that members could attend the important meeting of the Air Hygiene and Manufacturing Com mittee meeting attended by two representatives of the U. S. Public Health Service. Respectfully submitted. Ii.

Raybestos-IIanhattan, Inc. Garlock, Inc. Bausch oc Lomb Automatic Dust Counter: The members of the committee agreed to further pursue the develop ment of a method for correlating dust counts obtained by the ilidget Inpinger and the 3osch & Lomb Du3t Counter. This attempt appears to be important in regards to the acceptance of datss from the Bosch c Lomb Dust Counter by governmental agencies as well as for the evaluation of such datas within the plants. The Bosch & Lomb Dust Counter will be transferred shortly from the Uniroyal plant in Hogansville to H.K. Porter. Mr. Earl Wells dust count technician of Uniroyal - will discuss his datas and ex perience with the technician of H.K. Porter. It is planned that at a later date the dust count technicians of all member companies get together, exchange their datas and experience and develop a method for the proper use of the Bosch & Lomb Dust Counter and a correlation to the l.idgit Impinger. Wet Weaving; Samples of wet woven asbestos garment cloth before and after appli cation of a finish proved that a wet woven asbestos garment cloth, which without the application of a proper finishing method, would be unacceptable for garment use, can be finished in such a way that it shows the same an or even improved characteristics of dry woven cloth. Problems arising from rust formation a3 well as from clog ging of heddle eyes and reeds in the wet weaving process can be overcome by the use of stainless steel oval reeds and stainless steel heddle eyes. Boise Exposure? The problems of reducing the noise level, particularly in weave rooms, were discussed in regards to the "Revised Safety & Health Standards Under the Walsh-Healey Public Contracts Act'1'.

The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading. Motion by Mr.Rainey that reading be omitted,seconded by Hr. Moody.So voted. 3. The Chairman stated that he had received a letter from Mr. R.P. Clark, Uniroyal,Inc., dated September 8, 1969, tendering hit resig nation as a member of the Board of Governors, also as Vice President of the Institute and the committees on which he served, to be effect ive as of Sept.1st,1969. His resignation, he explained, was due to a realignment of his duties at Uniroyal,Inc., because of which he would no longer be associated with their asbestos products. Mr. Rainey moved that the resignation be accepted with deep regret. His motion was seconded by Mr. Moody. So voted. Chairman Schuman said that he had been advised by Uniroyal that Mr. E.A. Morris would be their new representative on the Board of Governors, and welcomed Hr. Morris to the meeting. Also welcomed to the meeting was Mr. J.K. Whittaker, representing our new Regular Member, Nicolet Industries,Inc. I4.. The Financial Report was presented by Treasurer Scowcroft, who stated that the Annual Audit had been made by llr. C.W. Briggs,Jr., of Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc. President Schuman reported that he had been advised by Mr. Briggs that the statement dated Sept.9,1969 "presents fairly the position of the Institute as of that date". Mr. './hittaker moved that report be accepted, motion seconded by llr. Rainey, and so voted unanimously. The Report and a copy of Mr. Briggs's letter are attached to these minutes.5 5. Mr. L.E. Moody, Chairman of tho Nominating Committee, presented his committee's cecommedations for committee chairmen to roplace the Jlinutes - Board 6jT Governor's Meeting, October 9, 1969 Page -2- four chairmen who are now completing their normal two-year terms: Air Hygiene b Mfg.

Porter Company,Inc. Regarding nominations for officers to serve for the coming year. Hr. Moody pointed out that the President and Treasurer had another year remaining of the usual two-year term of office, and this left only one vacancy, that of the Vice President, to be filled due to the resignation of :Ir. Clark. Mr. Scoweroft suggested that Mr. Moody be nominated for this office* Mr. Rainey movea that (1) the recommendations of the nominating committee for committee chairmen be approved by the Board; (2) that . Mr.Schuman (President) and Hr. Scoweroft (Treasurer) be re-elected to serve for another year; and (3) that Mr. L.E. Moody be elected to the office of Vice President. This motion was seconded by Mr. Morris and approval was voted unanimously. 6. Treasurer Scoweroft presented the Budget for the coming year in the amount of $11,017.00, and moved that it be approved. Mr. Rainey seconded this motion, and approval was unanimous. The Budget figures are attached to these minutes. 7. Speaker for the next meeting, Feb. 6, 1970, is responsibility of H.K. Porter Company (by rotation) and Mr. Moody agreed they.would try to supply a suitable speaker. 6. Approval was given to locations for ATI meetings in 1970:February 4-6, 1970 - Regency Hyatt House, Atlanta,Ga. June 10-12, 1970 - Balmoral Hotel, Thetford Mines,Quebec October 7-9, 1970 - Statler Hilton Inn, Williamsburg,Va. *?. Tentative approval was given to meetings in 1971:February 3-5# 1971 - Charlotte,N.C. June 2-4, 1971 - Cherry Hill, il.J. October 6-6, 1971 Savannah, Ga. 20. Suggestions for meeting locations in 1972 were:February 2-4, 1972 - Florida (West Coast) June 7-9, 1972 - Seaview Country Club, Absecon,!!.J. October 4-6, 1972 - The Equinox, Manchester, Vt. Also, it was suggested that a return visit to Pinehurst,if.C. in October of 1973 would be desirable. 21. Hr. Scoweroft suggested that the name of the "Sales Promotion" committee should be changed to more properly denote its broad range of interests in such matters as public relations, new products, legislation affecting our industry, etc. iir. Moody said that he would recommend that all reference to "Sales" be omitted in selecting a new name for the committee. Mr. Rainey moved that the title "Sales Promotion" be eliminated , and that it be left to the members of the old committee to select a new name that would be properly descriptive of their field of activity. o . _) Minutes - Board of Governor's Heating, October 9, 1969 Page -3- Mr. Moody seconded this notion, and it was voted approval unanimously. The Secretary will advise the incoming chairman of this action, and ask him to take the initiative in recommending a new name for the committee. 12. Mr S.R. Zimmerman,Jr., showed a series of three advertisements prepared by the Asbestos Information Committee, 10 Lardour St., London, fiigland. These ads, to be published under the caption "WHO NEEDS ASBESTOS" will appear in certain trade papers beginning in November 19697 Hr. Zimmerman commented favorably on the makeup of the ads and felt it was a constructive effort to acquaint the public with the importance of asbestos products in today's world. 3.3. Hr. C.L. Sheckler, Chairman of the Environmental Study Committee, reviewed for the benefit of the Board several developments that have taken place since the last meeting. Ee again stressed that his . committee acts only in an advisory capacity. The highlights of his remarks, (unedited by llr. Sheckler) follow Confidential Information is that the TJ.S.P.H. Service is preparing a Position Paper on health aspects of asbestos, and 1-ir. Sheckler has reviewed a draft of same.. USPIIS gives opinion that asbestos hazard can be controlled except for mesothelima. Question of what Threshold Value should be eat >s reviewed. British Standards of number of fibers >ers per ce have been suggested)- compromise may be Lch means one million particles per cubic foot. Doe IS paper will be published but thinks in about Ly. In his "opinion the asbestos industry should isociation rather than by an individual company Hr. Sheckler met recently wit > representatives of respiratory safety equipment epresentatives of the U.S. Bureau of Hines. An improved protective respiratory device has been developed but it will not be marketed until, or unless, it is approved by the U.o. Bureau of .lines. This might be next July - however the Bureau of Hines will not give specific approval for asbestos dust- but rather for silicates (?) which in Hr. Sheckler's view would be acceptable. He pointed out that the plant should have a respirator maintenance program, meaning a clean filter every day,etc This is more of a problem on construction Jobs than for in-plant workers. Several companies have prototypes of respirators, including J/M, awaiting U.3. Bureau of iiines approval. In respect to the Navy's search for a substitute for asbestos cloth as well as other asbestos products. Hr. Sheckler is under the opinion that the Navy does not necessarily want non-asbestos products, but elimination of dust is their primary objective. Commenting on legislation - present and pending - Hr. Shecl:ler mentioned that compensation cases were not decreasing - quite the contrary in factl Examination of the employees in J/lI's iIarshville,II.C. plant is presently underway by the U.3.?.H.Service, and acceptance by the employees there has been excellent. u) Minutes - Board of Governor's Meeting, October 9, 1969 Page -I4.- Mr. Sheckler raised the question of whether it would be desirable to have Dr. Selikoff as the Guest Speaker at an A.T.I. meeting. Mr. Hainey felt that we should defer it as timing was not right. It was the concensus of the Board that any invitation to Dr. Selikoff should be deferred. Also that If, and when, invited to speak that I>r. Selikoff agree there would be no publicity release in connection with his talk at the Institute meeting. The ^lestion of preparing a Position Paper on asbestos was discussed. Mr. Rainey thought that the restructured former Sales Promotion Committee might undertake it. Hr. Sheckler offered to help but not to accept responsibility for the undertaking. The Position Paper,or booklet, would be for the benefit of customers, and by means of it all companies would be in a position to advise their clients, custom ers,and the general public, of the many uses of and recommended procedures for the safe handling of asbestos textile products. All agreed that such a booklet would be most desirable. Hr. Sheckler showed a booklet put out by NIHA (National Insulation Hfgrs. Assoc.) saying that the format was excellent, and that a booklet on asbestos textiles might be modeled along the same lines. It was agreed that the idea of a booklet, or Position Paper, on asbestos textiles should be pursued at a subsequent meeting. U4.. There being no further business to come before the meeting it was voted to adjourn. - Respectfully submitted. aQestos textile XHSTITUTE ~ ) Beport of FundB September 9, 1969 Balance on'Hand at last report (Hay^. 1969) General Fund Savings Fund Petty Cash Fund ' Roceipts To Savings Fund (Interest 4 mos.)

President Schuman called the meeting to order at 9:30 A.H, and expressed his appreciation for the fine attendance of members(and wives) at this 25th Anniversary Celebration of the founding of ATI. 2. The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading.Motion by E.a. Farrell to omit reading,seconded by R.M.Billings,so voted. 3. The Financial Report was presented by Treasurer Scowcroft. Moved by J.L. Rainey that report be accepted. Seconded by K.u. Roberts, and so voted. President Schuman stated that the Annual Audit of the Institute's book3 had been made by Mr. Charles W, Briggs,Jr.,of Raybestos-llanhattan,Inc., and read hr. Briggs's letter of October 2nd certifying that the financial report of Sptember 9, 1969 presents fairly the position of the Institute as of that date.Report attached. ij., Mr. Haven C. Roosevelt, Legal Counsel, addressed the meeting, and a brief summary of his remarks follows t " In the past twenty-five years various representatives from my firm have outlined to you some of the activities which you may do and which you may not do jointly. With the rules for these activ ities we are all fairly familiar. However, what you may say to each other as opposed to what you may do together is an increasing ly difficult problem. In the recent Greensboro case a number of competitors exchanged information concerning prices charged or quoted to specific customers for corrugated containers. The trial court found that each defendant had exercised his own Judgement with respect to taking orders and quoting prices. On appeal the Attorney General argued that the exchnage of infor mation might have deprived customers of some of the benefits of competition -- that absent the exchange of information a lower price might have been quoted. The Supreme Court accepted this argument. The court drew what it called an"irresistible inference" that the exchange of information had an anticompetitive effect. Thus it would appear that any statistical reporting plan having to do with recently charged or quoted prices is in jeopardy. If this type of exchange is suspect then what other types in the future may incur suspicion? Although prices are the most obvious mani festation of product competition other factors are important -- packages; a finish, color or feature; credit; terms of sale; freight; even new products. All exchanges of information should be carefully examined to determine if an "irresistible inference" could be drawn that customers and competition in general might be adversely affected." 5. At this point in the meeting ^resident Schuman asked each person to stand and identify himself and his company.6 6. President Schuman announced that the Board of Governors, at their meeting held on October 9, 1969 had elected officers to serve for the coming year, namely:- President - E.A. Schuman; Vice President - L.E. Moody; Treasurer - M.Q. Scowcroft. New mem bers of the Board of Governors are:- J.K. Whittaker of Nicolet Industries,Inc., and E.A. Morris of Uniroyal,Inc. Mr.Morris re places R.P. Clark v/ho resigned as Vice President of ATI on the first of September 1969. Mr. Clark's responsibilities at Uniroyal Minutes - GENERAL lilETING - October 10, 1969 Page -3-. having been realigned he is no longer responsible for that company's asbestos textile products. We regret that "Dick"Clark, always an active and popular participant in Institute affairs, is unable to continue attendance at our meetings. 7. The Fibre Producer's Report was given by Hr. Wm.J.W. Smith, Vice President ft General Sales Manager of BELL ASBESTOS illl.'ES LIMITED. Mr. Smith reviewed the present situation in respect to the supply of various grades of asbestos fibres, and stated that so far as the spinning grades are concerned the normal inventories maintained by producers have been depleted to such an extent that a serious short age could develop in the coming year. At the conclusion of his remarks Mr. Smith extended to the members, on behalf of the Canadian members of the Institute, a most gracious and cordial invitation to attend the ATI meeting to be held at Thetford Mines. Quebec, June 10-12, 1970. Hosts at that meeting will be:Asbestos Corporation Limited; Bell Asbestos Mines Limited; Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd.; Johns-Mnnville Co.of Canada,Ltd.; and Lake Asbestos of Quebec,Ltd. 8.

" Sales Promotion Committee - Mr. R.B. Carpenter, Garlock Inc. " Fiber Testing Committee - Mr. D.E. Childers, II.IC. Porter Co.,Inc. Note: Currently under consideration is a proposal to change the name of the "Sales Promotion" Committee to more accurately denote its broad range of interests in such matters as public relations, new products, and legislation affecting our industry 11. Mr. John D. McCluer, a former chairman of our Technical Committee was presented with a beautiful plaque by President Schuman as a trib ute to his many years of service in the asbestos textile industry, and his valuable contribution to the work of the Institute. Retired from the II. K. ^orter Co., Inc., at the end of last August, Mr.ft Mrs. iicCluer reside at ll|.22 Richland Dr., Charlotte,N.C. 28205. Minutes OSHTTaL MINTING - October 10, 1969 Page -4- 12.

Minutes Bausch & Lorib Automatic Dust Counter:- Summarizing the experience of the member companies with the 3:L Dust Counter, the committee came to the conclusion that the Bc:L instrument is not to considered a replacement for the Impinger, or for the Membrane- Filter. However, it appears to be a most suitable device for monitoring air contamination over extended periods of time. It is suggested to have various areas periodically monitored over a period of at least a shift, preferably over a period of twenty-four hours. During the recording time all changes in the environment due to changes in humidity, temperature, air-flow, operation, etc, are to be reported as to their nature, time, and duration. Subsequently the strip chart from the B&L Recorder is to be evaluated in conjunction with the environmental report. It will then be possible to pin-point time, duration and extent of air contamination, and reasons for its occurrence over a full cycle of operation. Whenever periods of high dust concentration have been observed it appears to be necessary to follow up as soon as possible with a dust count by means of the Impinger or the Membrane Filter, at the same location and under the same or at least similar conditions. Most of our current programs are based on an industrial hygiene survey weekly or monthly. This interval of sampling appears to be too long to determine the effect of high concentration exposure of short duration as might be experienced under certain circumstances. The use of the BL Dust Counter as a monitoring device, and the Membrane Filter as a fiber counter, supplementing each other, appears to be a most suitable way to pinpoint areas of high dust concentration and the reason thereof. Neither one by itself pro vides sufficient information. We are recommending that member companies utilize the B&L Dust Counter in this manner to supplement their current industrial hygiene program. It would be most helpful to our industry if unusual ?age -1- minutes - Air Hygiene 2: ilfg. Committee - continued: Page -2- observations were brought to the attention of this committee. Using the B&L Dust Counter in the described manner and inasmuch as the Impinger seems to have become obsolete ( when the Membrane Filter is used in conjunction with the B&L Dust Counter) it is not necessary to develop a method for correlating dust counts obtained by the two instruments Membrane Filter Method: Mr. C.L. Sheckler reported that the Impinger will most likely no longer be used and that the membrane Filter method is going to be the accepted method for evaluating asbestos dust. At the present time 12 fibers per cc, 5 microns plus, are considered to be the equivalent to 2 HPPCF as reported by Hr.J.Lynch, U.S.P.H.Service. Cleaning Procedures: Various methods for cleaning production equipment and rooms were discussed. A member of the committee reported on the use of the Abington System for periodic cleaning operations. Other member companies are using compressed air about twice a year for the removal of dust from pipes, rafters, ceilings, walls, etc. It appears to be most important that in this area major efforts are made to improve our methods and preferably prevent any excessive accumulation of dust. Dust Prevention in 31ending and Carding: The committee members exchanged ideas in regards to dust abatement in the blending and carding operation. .Unclosed blending lines, use of plastic bags for mixes, enclosed automatic card feed, lap system and other devices were discussed.

(Retired) The Technical Committee met briefly with the Fiber Testing Committee to discuss the ASTIi Specification on Magnetic Rating. Sufficient data and guidelines are now available for the revision of this specification around the T & N Analyzer. Mr. Lincoln has provided schematic drawings and Mr. Walter Smith has written sample prep aration data that will be incorporated. Most of the Technical Committee's time was used in work on the ASTM Specification D-1118 for Magnetic Rating. Other specifications outstanding are a continuation of earlier work, and answers and revisions from government agencies are expected. These include: 1. National Stockpile Spec.P-3-Rlj. on Spinnable Asbestos Fibers. A change in M.R. was requested. 2. IHL-I-3053# Electrical Insulation - it was recommended that this entire specification be rewritten. 3. MIL-P-161J.01I., Asbestos Packing - change suggested in the burnout procedure. I4..

A portion of the meeting was devoted to the subject of the Navy's effort to seek substitutes for asbestos textiles. It was determined that the Naval Ship Engineering Cdnter has not finalized its report on high temperature insulation, but steps were taken in the Commit tee to insure that the Institute is kept informed on the subject. At the last meeting, you may recall that we planned to investigate the possibility of arranging free subscriptions of "ASEESTOS" mag azine to college libraries and other institutions. As we began to investigate this subject in detail, we were led into a more compre hensive discussion of the purpose of the committee. In view of the tremendous interest in the health hazard involved with the use of asbestos, it was felt that the Committee's aims should be broadened We began to probe in the area of public relations and new products. We feel that the scope of the Committee should be widened. It was agreed that the general work accomplished in the years past now seems to have been basically completed. V/e feel that a re-examin ation is in order and work will be done in this area before our next meeting. You may also recall that we were to investigate the possibility of embarking on an Institute-sponsored advertising program. This, also leads us into the scope of the Committee and convinces us that public relations i3 more descriptive of the areas that we should be concerned with. I believe that you will find at the next General Meeting that we will be able to more clearly define the work of this Committee. Respectfully submitted. M.Q.

Brink, Chairman - Asbestos Corporation Ltd. D.E. Childers - II.K. Porter Company, Inc. E.A. Farrell - Lake Asbestos of Quebec Limited Bernard Lincoln - Turner 3c Newall Ltd. Visitors: D.J. Frost # - Nicolet Industries, Inc, W.H. Smith - Bell Asbestos Hines Limited. * Note:- Application made for membership on this committee. BUSINESS: 1. Magnetic Rating Test 1.1 The status quo of the Magnetic Rating Test was reviewed at a joint meeting of the Technical and Fiber Testing Committees. Fourteen (111-) persons were in attendance at the joint session. The main items discussed were as follows: 1.1.1 Sampling, specimen holders and method of loading cells, especially for textile products. 1.1.2 Warning note on limitations of test method. 1.1.3 A schematic diagram for the T.c N. Magnetic Analyser was distributed. 1.1.4. Part of the first draft of the proposed ASTM Test Method for Magnetic Rating was handed over to the Chairman for distribution to the Fiber Testing Committee members. 1.1.5 The Chairman promised to supply Mr. Bernard Lincoln with 50 grams of magnetite equivalent to NBS magnetite sample No. 29 for the preparation of secondary calibrating stand ards. 2. Spicular and Grit Content of Spinning Fibers: 2.1 The results of work done since the last meeting to explore the possibilities of developing a suitable test method for determining the spicular and grit content of spinning fibers were reviewed and fractions recovered from the elutriation of -*4M & -4M Hcliett fractions and hydrocyclone residues were circulated for examination. Page (1) of (2) Minutes - Fiber Testing Committee - continued: Page (2) Of (2) 2.2 Although the present approach did not give the desired results, it was decided to keep this subject on the agenda for future consideration. 3. Recent activities of the QAMA Technical Committee ( Static Particle Sizing i.e., fiber length and diameter by the Zeiss Particle Size Analyzer & Split Image Shearing Device and Colour) and ASTM D-30 (Sub-Ill) Committee (Ro-tap, Colour & Moisture Content) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. l|.. Fiber Length Measurements:- This important subject was briefly discussed again; and the need for a more precise method of measuring fiber length was expressed. The Chairman promised to prepare a resume of recent known developments in this field for circulation to Committee members. 5. The Chairman thanked the members for their assistance and cooperation during the term of his office (two years) and urged them to continue their search for improved and refined methods of testing asbestos fiber. Respectfully submitted. G.F.A. Brink, Chairman ATI Fiber Testing Committee 21st October, 1969 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY COMMITTEE Outline of remarks (unedited) by C.L. Sheckler, Chm. at ATI General Meeting, October 10, 1969 1. Discussed a Position Paper (Special Report) to the Surgeon General from the Bureau of Occupational Safety and Health.Has reviewed a draft of the Paper but does not know when it will be published - per haps within the next six months. 2. Discussed potential revision of Threshold Limit Value for Asbestos Dust. Current ACGIH TLV is 5.0 MPPCF. Walsh-Healy Act revision is 12 fibers per cc, or 2.0 MPPCF. Proposed TLV at this time is 6 fibers per cc, or 1.0 MPPCF, meaning fibers over 5 microns in length. A fibre is defined as being three times in length of its diameter. 3. Referred to meetings with Captain Rosenwinkle, Commanding Officer of Shipyard Repair and Environmental Health, concerning the Navy's search for substitutes for asbestos-containing materials, and use of new asbestos products that generate less dust. Concludes that the industry needs to develop and present new products that are less dusty and also needs to project educational material, or information, concerning use of asbestos products. I*. "Nader's Raiders" have been considerably involved in the Coal In dustry "Black Lung" occupational disease problems, legislation and litigation. This group and movement has now moved into the area of the Cotton Textile Industry in respect to "3rown Lung"(Byssinosis) an occupational disease caused by inhalation of cotton dust. There is reason to believe that the investigation into cotton textiles may lead Nader, or someone else, to the Asbestos Textile Industry. It is therefore essential that ATI be alert and prepared. One of the greatest assets that we have in our favor is the cooperative health program that the ATI has undertaken with the U.S.P.H. Service. This program is in its third stage, the clinical examination stage, and has and will contribute a great deal of knowledge relative to the health problems relating to asbestos. Stressed that members who have been cooperating in the USPHS health program have no reason to be apprehensive, as we have been forthright in recognizing our difficul ties, and we have been doing something about it. We must continue our efforts, and are currently making plans to do considerable work in the area of health information and education to the users of our products. 5. Reviewed current status of medical research work in conjunction with asbestos and mineral fibers. Mentioned participation by other manufacturing groups,i.e.:IAMA, NIHA, ACPA, and recently the MPA.6 6. Pointed out that the Air Hygiene : ilfg. Committee of ATI was con cerned primarily with "In-Plant" conditions and problems, whereas the Environmental Study Committee's primary objective was to act in an advisory capacity on matters affecting our industry, outside the plant, such as legislation, litigation, medical research findings, customer education efforts, liaison with other industry groups, etc. Stressed the need for constant coordination between the two com mittees. H.E. Sunbury Secretary Minutes GENERAL MEETING . Asbestos Textile Institute OCT 101969 Founded 1944 ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE P. O. BOX 239 Mr. R.E. Carper GARLOCK INC. Palmyra,New Yor Dear Hr. Carpenter: Committee Chairmanship We were very pleased to learn from Alex Kuzmuk that you are agree able to serve as a Committee Chairman for what has been called for many years our "Sales Promotion Committee". A proposal to change the name of the Sales Promotion Committee was approved by the Board of Governors at their meeting held on October 9, 1969. The new name, to be selected by members of that committee, is to be indicative of their wide range of interest in such matters as public relations, legislation, new products, cust omer information, etc., that are considered of importance to the asbestos textile industry. The next General Meeting of A.T.I. will be held February lj.-6, 1970 at the Regency Hyatt House, Atlanta,Ga. Your committee will meet on Thursday morning, February 5th. It is suggested that the matter of selecting a new name for the committee should be discussed at that time, ana a decision made. Several suggested names have been considered, such as: Public Relations Committee New Products Committee Product Education & Promotion Committee Asbestos Information Committee Industry Promotion Committee You may have noticed that the report of our 25th Anniversary nesting that appears on Page 6, November issue of ASBESTOS Mag azine, states that you are the newly appointed chairman of the "Industry Promotion" Committee. For purposes of this publicity release it was thought best to drop the word "Sales" from the committee title, and, with a printing deadline to meet, the word "Industry" was substituted for "Sales". There has been no discussion of the name "Industry Promotion Committee", and no authorization for its continued usage. I look forward to seeing you in Atlanta next Februaryl Wishing you the Season's Best, I am, CC: H.i. Scowcroft I. A.

President Schuman called the meeting to order at 9:30 A.H, and expressed his appreciation for the fine attendance of members(and wives) at this 25th Anniversary Celebration of the founding of ATI. 2. The minutes of the last meeting were presented for reading.Motion by E.A. Farrell to omit reading,seconded by R.H.Billings,so voted. 3. The Financial Report was presented by Treasurer Scowcroft, Moved by J.L. Rainey that report be accepted. Seconded by K.a. Roberts, and so voted. President Schuman stated that the Annual Audit of the Institute's books had been made by Hr. Charles N. Briggs,Jr.,of Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc., and read Mr. Briggs's letter of October 2nd certifying; that the financial report of Sptember 9, 1969 presents fairly the position of the Institute as of that date.Rep0rt attached. L(.. Hr. Haven C. Roosevelt, Legal Counsel, addressed the meeting, and a brief summary of his remarks follows j " In the past twenty-five years various representatives from my firm have outlined to you some of the activities which you may do and which you may not do jointly. With the rules for these activ ities we are all fairly familiar. However, what you may say to each other as opposed to what you may do together is an increasing*, ly difficult problem. In the recent Greensboro case a number of competitors exchanged information concerning prices charged or quoted to specific customers for corrugated containers. The trial court found that each defendant had exercised his own judgement with respect to taking orders and quoting prices. On appeal the Attorney General argued that the exchnage of infor mation might have deprived customers of some of the benefits of competition -- that absent the exchange of information a lower price might have been quoted. The Supreme Court accepted this argument. The court drew what it called an "irresistible inference" that the exchange of information had an anticompetitive effect. Thus it would appear that any statistical reporting plan having to do with recently charged or quoted prices is in jeopardy. If this type of exchange is suspect then what other types in the future may incur suspicion? Although prices are the most obvious mani festation of product competition other factors are important -- packages; a finish, color or feature; credit; terms of sale; freight; even new products. All exchanges of information should be carefully examined to determine if an "irresistible inference" could be drawn that customers and competition in general might be adversely affected." 5. At this point in the meeting Dresident Schuman asked each person to stand and identify himself and his company.6 6. President Schuman announced that the Board of Governors, at their meeting held on October 9, 1969 had elected officers to serve for the coming year, namely:- President - E.A. Schuman; Vice President - L.E. Moody; Treasurer - M.Q, Scowcroft. New mem bers of the Board of Governors are:- J.K. Whittaker of Nicolet Industries,Inc., and E.A.

We regret that "Dick"Clark, always an active and popular participant in Institute affairs, is unable to continue attendance at our meetings. 7. The Fibre Producer's Report v/as given by Hr. Vm.J.W. Smith, Vice President General Sales iManager of BELL AS3E3TCS FIFES LIMITED. Hr. Smith reviev.'ed the present situation in respect to the supply of various grades of asbe:tos fibres, and stated that so far as the spinning grades are concerned the normal inventories maintained by producers have been depleted to such an extent that a serious short age could develop in the coming year. At the conclusion of his remarks Hr. Smith extended to the members, on behalf of the Canadian members of the Institute, a most gracious and cordial invitation to attend the ATI meeting to be held at Thetford Mines. Quebec, June 10-12, 1970.

Declcman - Turner Bros, Asbestos Co,, Ltd. G. Griswold,Jr. - Nicolet Industries,Inc. Minutes Bausch & Lonb Automatic Dust Counter:- Summarizing the experience of the member companies with the 3c:L Lust Counter, the committee came to the conclusion that the BML instrument is not to considered a replacement for the Impinger, or for the Membrane- Filter. However, it appears to be a most suitable device for monitoring air contamination over extended periods of time. It is suggested to have various areas periodically monitored over a period of at least a shift, preferably over a period of twenty-four hours. During the recording time all changes in the environment due to changes in humidity, temperature, air-flow, operation, etc, are to be reported as to their nature, time, and duration. Subsequently the strip chart from the B&L Recorder is to be evaluated in conjunction with the environmental report. It will then be possible to pin-point time, duration and extent of air contamination, and reasons for its occurrence over a full cycle of operation. Whenever periods of high dust concentration have been observed it appears to be necessary to follow up as soon as possible with a dust count by means of the Impinger or the Membrane Filter, at the same location and under the same or at least similar conditions. Most of our current programs are based on an industrial hygiene survey weekly or monthly. This interval of sampling appears to be too long to determine the effect of high concentration exposure of short duration as might be experienced under certain circumstances. The use of the B?:L Dust Counter as a monitoring device, and the Membrane Filter as a fiber counter, supplementing each other, appears to be a most suitable way to pinpoint areas of high dust concentration and the reason thereof. Neither one by itself pro vides sufficient information. We are recommending that member companies utilize the B&L Dust Counter in this manner to supplement their current industrial hygiene program. It would be most helpful to our industry if unusual age -1- Minutes - Air Hygiene H ilfg. Committee - continued: Page -2- observations were brought to the attention of this committee. Using the 3&L Dust Counter in the described manner and inasmuch as the Impinger seems to have become obsolete ( when the Membrane Filter is used in conjunction with the BML Dust Counter) it is not necessary to develop a method for correlating dust counts obtained by the two instruments. Membrane Filter method: Mr. C.L. Cheekier reported that the Impinger will most likely no longer be used and that the nembrane Filter Method is going to be the accepted method for evaluating asbestos dust. At the present time 12 fibers per cc, 5 microns plus, are considered to be the equivalent to 2 iiPPCF as reported by Hr.J.Lynch, U.S.P.H.Service. Cleaning Procedures: Various methods for cleaning production equipment and rooms were discussed. A member of the committee reported on the use of the Abington System for periodic cleaning operations. Other member companies are using compressed air about twice a year for the removal of dust from pipes, rafters, ceilings, walls, etc. It appears to be most important that in this area major efforts are made to improve our methods and preferably prevent any excessive accumulation of dust. Dust Prevention in Blending and Carding: The committee members exchanged ideas in regards to dust abatement in the blending and carding operation. Enclosed blending lines, use of plastic bags for mixes, enclosed automatic card feed, lap system and other devices were discussed. Respectfully submitted. H.H.

Walter Smith has written sample prep aration data that will be incorporated. Most of the Technical Committee's time was used in work on the ASTH Specification D-1118 for Magnetic Rating. Other specifications outstanding are a continuation of earlier work, and answers and revisions from government agencies are expected. These include: 1. National Stockpile Spec. P-3-Rl; on Spinnable Asbestos Fibers. A change in M.R. was requested. 2. IIIL-I-3053, Electrical Insulation - it was recommended that this entire specification be rewritten. 3.

A portion of the meeting was devoted to the subject of the Navy's effort to seek substitutes for asbestos textiles. It was determined that the Naval Ship Engineering Center has not finalized its report on high temperature insulation, but steps were taken in the Commit tee to insure that the Institute is kept informed on the subject. At the last meeting, you may recall that we planned to investigate the possibility of arranging free subscriptions of "ASLEST03" mag azine to college libraries and other institutions. As we began to investigate this subject in detail, we were led into a more compre hensive discussion of the purpose of the committee. In view of the tremendous interest in the health hazard involved with the use of asbestos, it was felt that the Committee's aims should be broadened. We began to probe in the area of public relations and new products. We feel that the scope of the Committee should be widened. It was agreed that the general work accomplished in the years past now seems to have been basically completed. We feel that a re-examin ation is in order and work will be done in this area before our next meeting. You may also recall that we were to investigate the possibility of embarking on an Institute-sponsored advertising prograta. This, also, leads us into the scope of the Committee and convinces us that public relations is more descriptive of the areas that we should be concerned with. I believe that you 'will find at the next General Meeting that we will be able to more clearly define the work of this Committee. Respectfully submitted, M.Ci.

Magnetic Rating Test 1.1 The status quo of the Magnetic Rating Test was reviewed at a joint meeting of the Technical and Fiber Testing Committees. Fourteen (ll|.) persons were in attendance at the joint session. The main items discussed were as follous: 1.1.1 Sampling, specimen holders and method of loading cells, especially for textile products. 1.1.2 Warning note on limitations of test method. 1.1.3 A schematic diagram for the T.: N. Magnetic Analyser was distributed. 1.1.4 Part of the first draft of the proposed ASTII Test Method for Magnetic Rating was handed over to the Chairman for distribution to the Fiber Testing Committee members. 1.1.5 The Chairman promised to supply Mr. Bernard Lincoln with 50 grams of magnetite equivalent to NBS magnetite sample No. 29 for the preparation of secondary calibrating stand ards . 2. Spicular and Grit Content of Spinning Fibers: 2.1 The results of work done since the last meeting to explore the possibilities of developing a suitable test method for determining the spicular and grit content of spinning fibers were reviewed and fractions recovered from the elutriation of -*4M & -4M McNett fractions and hydrocyclone residues were circulated for examination. Page (1) of (2) Minutes - Fiber Testing Committee - continued: Page (2) Of (2) 2.2 Although the present approach did not give the desired results, it was decided to keep this subject on the agenda for future consideration. 3. Recent activities of the QAiiiA Technical Committee { Static Particle Sizing i.e., fiber length and diameter by the Zeiss Particle Size Analyzer Sc Split Image Shearing Device and Colour) and ASTM D-30 (Sub-Ill) Committee (Ro-tap, Colour <Ic Moisture Content) of interest to ATI were briefly reviewed. I4.. Fiber Length Measurements:- This important subject was briefly discussed again; and the need for a more precise method of measuring fiber length was expressed. The Chairman promised to prepare a resume of recent known developments in this field for circulation to Committee members. 5. The Chairman thanked the members for their assistance and cooperation during the term of his office (two years) and urged them to continue their search for improved and refined methods of testing asbestos fiber. Respectfully submitted. G.F.A. Brink, Chairman ATI Fiber Testing Committee 21st October, 1969 ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY COMMITTEE Outline of remarks (unedited) by C.L. Sheckler, Chm. at ATI General Meeting, October 10, 1969 1 Discussed a Position Paper (Special Report) to the Surgeon General from the Bureau of Occupational Safety and Health.Has reviewed a draft of the Paper but does not know when it will be published - per haps within the next six months. 2. Discussed potential revision of Threshold Limit Value for Asbestos Dust. Current ACGIH TLV is 5.0 MPPCF. Walsh-Healy Act revision is 12 fibers per cc, or 2.0 MPPCF. Proposed TLV at this time is 6 fibers per cc, or 1.0 MPPCF, meaning fibers over 5 microns in length. A fibre is defined as being three times in length of its diameter. 3. Referred to meetings with Captain Rosenwinkle, Commanding Officer of Shipyard Repair and Environmental Health, concerning the Navy's search for substitutes for asbestos-containing materials, and use of new asbestos products that generate less dust. Concludes that the industry needs to develop and present new products that are less dusty and also needs to project educational material, or information, concerning use of asbestos products. L|. "Nader's Raiders" have been considerably involved in the Coal In dustry "Black Lung" occupational disease problems, legislation and litigation. This group and movement has now moved into the area of the Cotton Textile Industry in respect to "3rown Lung"(Byssinosis) an occupational disease caused by inhalation of cotton dust. There is reason to believe that the investigation into cotton textiles may lead Nader, or someone else, to the Asbestos Textile Industry. It is therefore essential that ATI be alert and prepared. One of the greatest assets that we have in our favor is the cooperative health program that the ATI has undertaken with the U.S.P.H. Service. This program is in its third stage, the clinical examination stage, and has and will contribute a great deal of knowledge relative to the health problems relating to asbestos. Stressed that members who have been cooperating in the USPHS health program have no reason to be apprehensive, as we have been forthright in recognizing our difficul ties, and we have been doing something about it. We must continue our efforts, and are currently making plans to do considerable work in the area of health information and education to the users of our products. 5. Reviewed current status of medical research work in conjunction with asbestos and mineral fibers. Mentioned participation by other manufacturing groups,i.e.:IAMA, NIMA, ACPA, and recently the MPA.6 6. Pointed out that the Air Hygiene <?: ilfg. Committee of ATI was con cerned primarily with "In-Plant" conditions and problems, ifhereas the Environmental Study Committee's primary objective was to act in an advisory capacity on matters affecting our industry, outside the plant, such as legislation, litigation, medical research findings, customer education efforts, liaison with other industry groups, etc. Stressed the need for constant coordination between the two com mittees.

Mr. Haven C, Roosevelt, Legal Counsel, addressed the meeting, and a brief summary of his remarks follows i Minutes - General Meeting, continuedi Page -2- "Counsel outlined what he referred to as the "bathtub conspiracy'' or intra corporate conspiracy doctrine. Section I of the Sherman Act proscribes "eveiy contract, combination or conspiracy in restraint of trade". Thus Section I presupposes the existence of two contracting parties. In attempting to determine 1*0 are separate parties capable of conspiring some courts have been greatly confused. It is clear that comaon ownership or control will not insulate corporations from the impact of Section I. Thus, while a corporation cannot conspire with itself, it can conspire with its corporate affiliates or subsidiaries. Recently some courts have been called upon to decide whether a corporation can conspire with its own unincorporated divisions or affiliates for Section I purposes. In the Hawaiian Oka case at the District Court level, the trial judge told the jury that although Calvert Distillers Company, Four Roses Distillers Company and Frankfort Distillers Company are but three of the unincorporated divisions of the House of Seagrams, Inc., "nevertheless they are entities or units which, under the anti-trust laws are legally capable of conspiring among themselves ..." When this case reached the District Court of Appeals, that Court stated that if the theory that divisions or other purely administrative units of a single corporation can conspire together is accepted then there would be no rational basis upon which it could be decided that in one case there had been a conspiracy and that in another there had not. Counsel reported that it was exalting form over substance to say that unincor porated divisions cannot conspire while those same divisions if incorporated would be capable of conspiring. Counsel concluded that this area of the law was quite unsettled and would probably remain so for a considerable period of time in view of the fact that any new or definitive law wauld probably have to come from private suits which may well involve a long time." 5. The Fibre Producers' Report was given by Mr. Paul E. Leclerc, who is Regional Sales Manager for Asbestos Corporation limited, Thetford Mines, Quebec. His interesting and informative report is attached, 6. At this point in the meeting President Schuman asked each person present to stand and identify himself and his company affiliation. 7. Mr. Schuman mentioned receipt of a letter from Dr. M.C. Shaw's widow in which she stated that she had remarried during the sunner of 1969 and that she and her family were fine. Also he read a letter from Mr. J.D. Christian, President of Cassiar Corporation stating they were going ahead with plans to increase the capacity of the Cassiar' mill from a nominal 75000 tons per year to 100,000 tons per year, and hope to get this completed in 1970. This expansion will hopefully mean a little more spinning fibre in 1971. Mr, Christian expressed regret that no one from Cassiar would be able to attend this meeting as Messrs. Berry, Beguin, and Tigert were away at the ndnas, and he would be out of town on another trip. Friends of Paul J. Smith of ASTM, who has attended many of our meetings to work with our Technical Committee in revising ASTM specifications for asbestos textiles, will be interested to learn of his marriage last December 10th, to Mrs. Robert E. (Rusty) Gordon, in San Angelo, Texas, His home address is now 1102 Algerita Drive, San Angelo, Texas 76901, and we are sure he and "Rusty" would enjoy hearing from any of their friends in ATI. Minutes - General Meeting, continued: Page - 3 - 8. President Schuman introduced the Guest Speaker, Mr. J.W. Guthridge, Placement Director, Georgia Institute of Technology, His subject - ,rWhat the Student is Looking For in the Textile Industry Today", proved to be very informative and most Interesting. 9. President Schuman announced that a new committee, to be known as the "Asbestos Advisory Committee" had been approved by the Board of Governors to supersede the old Sales Promotion Committee, and that Mr. M.Q. Scowcroft would serve as Chairman of the new committee. This committee has a broad range of interests in respect to public relations, new products, legislation affecting our industry, etc, 10. The committee reports were given by the respective chairmen* Air hygiene & Mfg, Committee - L.E, Moody (for H.Fleming, Chm.) Technical Committee - S.G. Dixit, Chm. Asbestos Advisory Committee - M.Q. Scowcroft, Chm. Fiber Testing Committee - D.E, Childers, Chm, Their reports are attached to these minutes. 11. Mr. C.L. Sheckler, Chairman of the Environmental Study Committee, which functions in an advisory capacity to the Institute, reported on the situation pertaining to legislation, existing and anticipated, industrial relations problems, etc. Highlights of his remarks follow* Mr. Sheckler commented on the 1969 Coal Mine Health and Safety Act which is the sternest industrial safety law in American History, also on current Union activities in respect to "Brown Lung" i.e. (Byssinosis) which it is feared may result in similar adverse Federal Legislation for the Cotton Manufacturing Industry, and this could well include the asbestos textile industry. The 1969 Coal Mine Health and Safety Act presumes" that a coal miner has a compensable claim if he has worked for a specified period of years in coal mines. The present Act, unless renewed by Congress, will expire in seven years. Textile Unions are making a strong effort to get legislation similar to the Coal Mine Health & Safety Act. Dr. Selikoff, well known for his activities in respect to research on asbestos in relation to health, apparently has agreed to work with Textile Unions on "Brown Lung" (Byssinosis) research. In Testimony before a Congressional hearing, Union representatives stressed Byssinosis, Asbestosis, and Noise as major problems in the textile industry today. Mr. Sheckler referred to Ralph Nader's remarks about air pollution, at a Congressional hearing, in which he mentioned asbestos as an air pollutant. Under the heading of Student Activities, Mr. Sheckler said there will be a nation-wide demonstration in April 1970 against pollution of any and all kinds. He feels very strongly that this activity should not be underestimated in its significance for the future! Mr. Sheckler reported that Dr. L.J. Cralley, of the U.S.P.H. Service, who has attended many of our ATI meetings over the past six or seven years, Minutes - General Meeting, continued: Page - 4 had presented a paper entitled "Identification and Control of Asbestos Exposures" at the International Congress on Occupational Health, held last September in Tokyo, Japan. In his paper Dr. Cralley makes the summary state ment "Asbestos can be used safely in modern industrial technology if adequate precautions are taken to prevent excessive and unsuspected exposures". His paper is a clear, concise, and up-to-date discussion of industrial asbestos dust control by a recognized expert, and covers all essential aspects of the problem, from monitoring techniques to waste disposal. It merits careful reading by every manufacturer and consumer of asbestos products. Mr. Sheckler recommended that the pamphlet entitled "Method for Determining Asbestos Dust Concentration" published by our Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee in 1964 be updated to include the use of the Membrane Filter apparatus (or method) for obtaining a greater degree of accuracy. J/M Corp, and Dr. Cralley will be glad to help on this. Also that the Institute,through its new Asbestos Advisory Committee, prepare an Information Booklet on the Safe Handling of Asbestos Products, for use of Consumers. He stressed the need for preparation of a history of what our industry has done during the past 25 or 30 years to safeguard the health of its employees. The facts must be accurate and well documented. After we get it done we either use it to publicize the progress made, or hold it in reserve for defense against industry attack. 12. President Schuman announced that two applications for Associate Membership in the institute had been approved by the Board of Governorsj namely: NIPPON ASBESTOS CO. LTD., Tokyo, Japan. ASBESTOS TEXTIL, S.A., Tulancingo, Mexico. He welcomed both of these fine companies to the Institute, stating that he visualized a long and pleasant relationship to our mutual benefit! A special guest at this meeting was Mr. Albert Simon, of A. & R. Simon Co., New York City, who represent Nippon Asbestos Co. in the U.S.A. 13. President Schuman announced that the next meeting of the Institute would be held June 10-12, 1970 at Thetford Mines, Quebec. Our Canadian member companies will be hosts at this meeting. Mr. Wm.J.W. Smith of Bell Asbestos Mines and Mr. Paul E. Leclerc of Asbestos Corporation Ltd. are in charge of the arrangements for the June meeting and will furnish the Secretary full details for mailing to members well in advance of the meeting. Members are urged to bring their wives to this meeting! The fall meeting will be held October 7-9 1970, at Williamsburg, Va., and, this being the Annual Meeting, it is hoped that we will have our usual wellattended meeting by both members and wives! 14. There being no further business to come before the meeting it recessed for a reception and group luncheon, following which it was duly adjourned.

Sunbury, Asst./Treasurer FIBRE PRODUCERS' REPORT February 6, 1970 The industry enjoyed a good year in 1969 and there was a good general demand for all grades. Shipments from Quebec during 1969 were down 1.7 $ as compared to 1968, This was due to the closing down of one producing company early in 1969. The Quebec Asbestos Mining Associa tion's closing inventories at the end of December were at their lowest in years. Most companies have labor contracts signed for 1970 and 1971 at higher wage rates. As mentioned in earlier fibre reports and as you all know, there is a shortage of quality spinning fibres. The former very large inventory of Group 3 fibre was reduced to a relatively small quantity by the end of 1969. It is expected that this will disappear in 1970 and closing inventories at the end of this year will be minimal. There are just about no inventory stocks of Cassiar grades and no increase in production is expected this year. A mill expansion is planned for 1971 and this will provide some additional tonnage. There is also the possibility of Clinton Creek producing some spinning fibre in the 3R range in 1971. There appears to be a shortage of yam for friction products in Western Europe and the socialist countries of Europe as well as in some other areas. There exists a strong demand for asbestos-cement grades in groups 4, 5 and 6. Asbestos shorts or Group 7 grades are selling well although more readily available than the longer grades. To take care of part of the projected increased demands for the next few years, our company during 1969 increased its total production by nearly 20 fo over 1968 and present expansion plans which are to be completed this year are expected to again increase 1970 production by more than 10 5S.

Johns-Manville Manville, New Jersey Raybestos-Manhattan Charleston, S. C.- Raybestos-Manhattan Manheim, Pennsylvania UNIROYAL, Inc. Hogansville, Georgia H. K. Porter Charlotte, North Carolina The members agreed not to further pursue the development of a method for correlating dust count obtained by the Midget Impinger and the Bosch & Lomb Dust Counter. Member companies are encouraged to make full use of the B& L Counter for continuous monitoring in areas of abnormal dust concentration, for the purpose of determining cause of same. Members agreed that it will at all times be available to any member upon request to the Chairman. Minutes - /dr hygiene & Manufacturing Committee - cont. Cleaning & Air Pollution Page - 2 - Methods of waste disposal were discussed. The following dust and waste disposal methods presently in use are: 1. Seal in polyethylene bags before disposing to dump area, 2. Seal in 50 gallon drums and buried. 3. Pack in bale press before disposing. 4. Burn waste solvents in isolated area. All members agree that methods and procedures for waste disposal must be given serious consideration in view of governmental concern for air pollution. Noise Abatement: All member companies share a common concern for employee welfare in manu facturing areas of high noise levels. One company reported that employees were required to wear air muffs or ear plugs fitted by their Safety and Health Department. This is made a condition of employment. Asbestos Information Booklet: At request of the Asbestos Advisory Committee, the Air hygiene and Manufac turing Committee agreed to prepare a booklet for distribution to member customers relating to health hazards involved in use of Asbestos products. The booklet will suggest that normal or reasonable precautions be taken in processing asbestos products. Further, the booklet will recommend that government standards be met idiich will result in no greater health hazard than are present in the majority of industrial operations. The Committee agreed to submit a draft of the booklet to the A.T.I. Member ship at the June meeting for consideration. To assist in preparing the booklet, Mr. C. L. Sheckler agreed to mail a copy of the N.I.M.A. booklet to all Air Hygiene Committee members for use as a guide. Each member of the Air Hygiene Committee will submit to the Chairman of the Air Hygiene Committee his proposed version of what should be included in the booklet. Upon receipt of their recommendations, Mr. Horace Fleming and Mr. M. Q. Scowcroft will prepare a final draft.

Childers, Geo. Griswold, Jr,, and H. E. Sunbury attended the Wednesday afternoon session of February 4, 1970. The following subjects were covered during the meetings: 1. Proposed MIL Spec. 82249B a. The committee feels that the word cotton should be deleted and the word organic be substituted. b. Reference should be made to ASTM Standard D1918 for per cent asbestos determination. 2. Final form of ASTM D628 was presented to the committee for their approval. One negative vote cast by Tennessee Eastman Company has been withdrawn. 3. National Stockpile Specification: The General Services Administration has been requested to change the magnetic rating of asbestos fiber from 0.75 to 1.0 for Class II type asbestos textiles. 4. The magnetic rating specification write-up was continued. A rough draft of the proposed specification will be submitted to members of the Technical Committee by its chairman. 5. ASTM Specification D1573 on Heat Aging: The committee members recommended going to an outside laboratory for independent testing for economic reasons. It is planned to send samples of AA grade asbestos fabric to independent labora tories for heat aging and strength testing. This is being further explored and the cost and the program will be presented to the Board of Governors for their approval. 6. New ASTM procedure requires to include data on precision and accuracy. Our existing ASTM Standards will have to be modified. The work on these Standards will be taken up gradually*S. S. G. Dixit Chairman MINUTES ASBESTOS ADVISORY COMMITTEE (*) Asbestos Textile Institute - February 5, 1970 Regency-Ifyatt Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia You may remember that we reported from the last meeting of the Board of Governors held in Pinehurst on October 9, 1969, that the Board voted un animously to change the name of the former "Sales Promotion Committee," It had been agreed that the work accomplished by that Committee in years past had largely been completed and that the scope of this group should be widened. Yesterday, February 5, with representatives of six member companies in attendance, the Committee selected the name -- Asbestos Advisory Committee, The name was selected after a long and spirited dis cussion. It is a name which we think represents best the aims and purposes of the group. This may best be described as the voice, if you will, the communications link between the various committees of this Institute out into all industry; to aid in presenting to member companies a climate for expanding uses of asbestos textiles in larger and more diverse applications. We are not all in agreement that we have selected a perfect name, but it was selected and presented to the Eoard for approval. We then asked the members of the Air-Hygiene and Manufacturing Committee to join us in a joint session. Prior to this and in other committee meetings, it was agreed that the sales forces of member companies needed education in the field of health protection involving the use of asbestos textiles. We felt that a brochure or pamphlet should be prepared by the Institute and made available to all so that sales representatives could have an intelli gently written sales aid to present to their customers when they are question ed concerning the potential hazards involved in the handling of asbestos textile products. The Air-ffygiene and Manufacturing Committee graciouslyagreed to aid us in the preparation of such a booklet by gathering whatever technical data is necessary in the compilation of the booklet. Work will be done by the Chairman of these two Committees prior to the meeting in June of this year. We hope to have a rough outline ready for presentation at that time and, very hopefully, get final decisions made in June so that printing and publishing can proceed as soon as possible thereafter. It is an important part of the education of the public (meaning customers) and our own sales forces and implements the excellent program outlined by the Environmental Study Committee. * Formerly - "Sales Promotion Committee" Respectfully submitted, M, Q, Scowcroft MINUTES OF THE ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE FIBER TESTING COMMITTEE MEETING - 4th. 5th & 6th. February. 1970 LOCATION: Regency ffyatt House, Atlanta, Georgia. IN ATTENDANCEi Dewey E. Childers, Chairman -- H. K.

G. F. A, Brink---------------------------- Asbestos Corporation, Ltd. 1, Magnetic Rating Test - Some time was spent reviewing the status of magnetic rating. Some present calibration standards were dispersed in a dry neutral powder and packed in the container. It was reported that segregation of the magnetite and the dispersing medium has occurred on some calibration standards. This segregation has produced lower readings than when the standards were first made. It was felt that this discovery will not affect the ASTM method which is currently being written. The committee wished it to be stated again that the ASTM method for magnetic rating will be based on the T & N. The Fiber Testing Committee and the Technical Committee jointly made recom mendations to Mr. Carl Gnam of the Miscellaneous Metals and Minerals Division (DSA) for changes ir. national stockpile purchase specification P-3-F&. It was recommended that the ,75 rating for electrical purposes be changed to 1.0. A letter was received stating this change will be made when the specification is revised. Grit and Spicule Content in Spinning Fibers - Everyone agrees there is an objectionable portion in spinning fiber which may be called grit or spicules. A great deal of work has been done by some of our members, but so far we have not produced a suitable method for separating this objectionable material from good fiber. The committee will return to this problem in future meetings hoping someone will come up with a more precise method. Fiber Length Measurements - Accurate determination of fiber length is important especially for the longer spinning grades. Mr, Gay Brink plans to prepare a summary touching on all that has been done in measuring fiber length. . The Test Manual - The committee felt that we should now begin looking at some of the tests in the manual so that when the time for revision arrives we have a head start. The committee expressed the desire that on future meetings * 3 have more members from the manufacturers on the Fiber Testing Committee, Respectfully submitted, Dewey E.

Treasurer Scowcroft presented the Financial "ieport. nr. muzmuk moved that it be accepted, seconded by Mr. Christenbury, and so voted unanimously. The report is attached to these minutes. Mr. Schuman stated that the annual audit of the Institute's books had been made by nr. G.7. Barker, Division Comptroller of Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc.,North Charleston,S.C., who reported that -"The statement dated September 9, 1970 presents fairly the position of the Asbestos Textile Institute as of that date." 5. The Legal Counsel Report was given by Attorney H.C. Roosevelt, of Cadwalader, V/ickershaia & Taft, Hew York City. A resume' of his remarks follows:- " Counsel discxissed two recent cases which were related to Section Ij. of the Clayton Act. lie noted that these cases might illustrate what will happen to some of the trad itional iterpretations of the antitrust laws. One is Billy Baxter vs Coca-Cola Company and the other is the Multi-District Anti-trust Litigation Ijavol_vln Motor Vehicle Air Pollution Control Equipment about "which he' spoke two' years ago". " * `" Coca-Cola and Canada Dry the two defendants in Billy Baxter filed a joint summary Judgement motion "suggesting" that Billy Baxter lacked standing to sue as a franchisor for its own lost profits on its franchisees' sales. Section ij. of the Clayton Act, provides: "That any person who shall be injured on its business or property by reason of anything forbidden in the anti-trust laws may sue therefore . and shall recover threefold the damages by him sustained, and the cost of suit, including a reasonable attorneys fee." "3y reason*of"; the.court in Billy Baxter said "expressly restricts the right to sue- under this section. There must be a causal connection between an anti trust violation and an injury sufficient for the trier of fact to establish that the violation was a "material cause' of or a 'sub stantial factor' in the occurrence of damage." Although any anti trust violation "disrupts the competitive economy to some extent and creates entirely forseeable injury which may be shown to reach individual employees, stockholders, 'or consumers, it lias long been held that not all of these have the requisite standing to sue for treble damages and thereby take a leading role in the enforcement of the prohibition question." Consequently, a treble-damage plaintiff must allege a causative link to his injury which is "direct" rather than "incidental" or which indicates that his business or property was in the "target area" of the illegal conduct. In the Motor Vehicle Air Pollution Control Equipment cases the facts are as follows: The present actions followed federal suits against the Automobile Manufacturers Association, General Motors Corp., Ford motor Co., Chrysler Corp., and American Motors Corp. The individual actions were consolidated in the California court by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. Each of the plaintiffs was sued in an individual, class, or parens patriae capacity after meeting with failure in their attempts to intervene in a civil antitrust suit against the automobile manufacturers filed by the Justice Department in January 1969. In that suit, the Justice Department obtained a consent degree enjoining the auto manufacturers from further conspiring "to prevent, restrain or limit Minutes - General Meeting - continued: `Ja-e -3 the development, manufacture, installation, distribution or sale of air pollution control equipment for motor vehicles." However such consent agreement does not constitute an admission of violation of law for the purposes of the private antitrust suits now pending. Private treble damage antitrust suits. Judge ilanuel Read noted, require the determination of three issues: conspiracy, impact, and damage. The question of conspiracy is here common not only to the class within each separate action but also to all the actions filed. This is an issue which should, in the interest of justice, be litigated only once. As to the auto manufacturers ' attack upon the maintenance of these suits in the absence of a "commercial relation ship" between plaintiffs and defendants, the court emphasizes the fact that Section 1+ of the Clayton Act gives the right to recover treble damages to anyone "injured in his business or property by reason of anything forbidden in the antitrust lavra." Judge Real then notes that he is not here concerned with the "traditional legalistic approach defined by the cases cited by the defendants in their motion to dismiss", and asserts that a lack of such "commercial relationship" is not fatal where the source of injury can be shown to be a violation of "anything forbidden in the antitrust laws." In Billy Baxter the court narrowly construed the "by reason of language" in the Clayton Act and in the Automobile cases the court used an extremely broad test. It may well be that the anti-trust lavra will now be interpreted in a much broader sense than in the past where issues like pollution are involved. This broad interpretation may then be applied to all types of anti-trust cases. 6. The Fibre Producers Report was given by Mr. Paul E. Leclerc, the Regional Sales Manager for ASJESTOS CORPORATION LIMITED. Mr. Leclerc said that "the over-all market for asbestos fibre was good. Group 3 spinning fibre is generally available but not in all types and qualities. The textile industry in England and Contin ental Europe appears to suffer from a shortage of labor. The United States market is soft, and the rallying signs of last August have been obscured by the present General Motors strike. The brake lining and building materials markets are down from last year. The asbestos-cement industry is good in most parts of the world and business is booming in South America, Japan, iiorea, Australia and Europe. The concensus of opinion is that business in 1971 will be better than in 1970, which has not quite lived up to expectations." 7. Committee reports were given by the respective chairmen:- Air Hygiene Sc Mfg. Committee - H.M. Willingham, Chm. Technical Committee - S.G. Dixit, Chm. Asbestos Advisory Committee - M.Q. Scowcroft, Chm. Fiber Testing Committee - D.E. Childers, Chm. Their reports are attached to these minutes. Ilr. Scowcroft, retiring chairman of the Asbestos Advisory Committee, thanked the members for their support during his service as head of that commit tee, and its predecessor (the Sales Promotion Committee) for a combined total of three years. Mr. Schuman thanked Mr. Scovraroft on behalf of the Board of Governors Minutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -L|.- for hio service as Chairman, then announced that the new Chairman of the Asbestos Advisory Committee was Mr. E.A. Morris of Uniroyal,Inc. 3. President Schunan commented on recent developments in the Press regarding hazards associated with asbestos. Mentioned his company's "positive approach" in their new ads stressing the fact that asbestos brings safety and economy into the daily life of nearly everyone. Three current ads entitled "Fire at Sea", "Airport", and "Driving at Dusk" are appearing in HE :S..iISK, BUSINESS WEEN, U.S. NX'S & WORLD REPORT, and WALL STREET JOURNAL. Copies of the ads were displayed. 9. Mr. Schuman introduced Doris M. Fagan, Editor of ASBESTOS Maga zine, Guest-of-Honor at this meeting. Mrs. Fagan said that she appreciated the invitation to attend, and that it was a real pleasure to do so. Mentioned the series of articles now appearing in ASBESTOS - "History of Asbestos Textiles in the U.S.A." by J.A. Bettes,Jr., which started with the August 1970 issue. Back issues are available for those who may have missed the first two or three installments of this History. She thanked the members for their support, both in advertising as well as subscriptions, and asked that ASBESTOS be put on each company's mailing list for publicity releases as the magazine is anxious to have all items of general interest to the asbestos industry. Pointed out that ASBESTOS Magazine was a good source of information, not only through its editorial and advertising pages but also by reason of the storehouse of data contained in its library and files. 10. President Schuman explained that the attendance at this meeting was less than usual because of an unfortunate conflict of meeting dates with the Q.A.M.A., which many of our Canadian members had to attend. Steps have been taken to try and avoid this in the future. Mr. Schuman announced that in recognition of the "austerity pro grams" now in effect by most member companies the Board of Governors had voted to grant a special discount of 20^ on Members 1971 dues. Further, that the Board had voted to shorten the meeting schedule for the February and June 1971 meetings , so as to have arrival on Wednesday P.M. and departure on Thursday P.M. The Annual Meeting in October 1971 (to which company officials and wives are specially in vited) will have the usual schedule with arrival Wednesday P.M. and departure on Friday afternoon. 11. President Schuman presented Mr. G. Ellwood Houghton, of Garlock Inc., with a plaque "For Outstanding Achievement in His Field" "Ellie" Houghton, as he is known to his many friends in ATI and in the Industry, is planning to retire as of November 1,1970 after over lj.3 years continuous employment in the asbestos textile and mechanical packing industries. He has contributed to the progress of ATI by serving on its Technical Committee and by his regular attend ance at meetings. Mr. Houghton expressed his sincere appreciation for the plaque, said he had greatly enjoyed his association with the ATI, and felt that the Institute was doing a most valuable work for the Industry, and was worthy of continuing support. Hinutes - General Meeting - continued: Page -5- 12. Locations for meetings in 1971 were announced:* February 1971 - Red Carpet Inn, Charlotte,iI.C. June 9-10, 1971 - Cherry Hill Inn, Cherry Hill, u. J. October 6-8, 1971 - Savannah Inn & Country Club, Savannah,Ga. 13. President Schuman announced that the Board of Governors had elected new officers for the coming year, namely:- President - L.E. Mo^dy, H.K. Porter Company,Inc. Vice President - M.Q. Scowcroft, Raybestos-Manhattan,Inc. Treasurer - Alexander Kuzmuk, Garlock Inc. Exec. Secretary : Asst. Treasurer - H.E. Sunbury Also, that Mr. Alexander Kuzmuk had been elected to the Board of Governors as Garlock's representative, replacing Mr. G.Parry Wiess. ( Mr. Kuzmuk is President of Oarlock's Mechanical Rubber Division located in Palmyra, N.Y., which also includes their asbestos textile operations.) 114.. After announcing the new officers Mr. Schuman asked the new President, L.E. Moody, to take charge of the meeting. President Moody paid eloquent tribute to the fine leadership given to the Institute by Mr. Schuman during the past two years. There was a spontaneous burst of applause following his remarks, and a standing ovation for "Ed" Schuman who has contributed so much to the Institute over many years of service as committee Chairman, Editor of 2nd Edition of the Handbook of Asbestos Textiles, Treasurer, Vice President, and, since `October 1968, President! His is truly an outstanding record in support of the Institute! 15. The meeting recessed for luncheon, following which it adjourned.

Hindmarch* and J.P. Mronski . to prepare an instruction booklet for determin ing dust concentration by the membrane-filter method. It was agreed that the booklet should be prepared as follows: a. The format would be basically the same as the instruction booklet issued by the Asbestos Textile Institute under date of October 4, 1963 entitled "Method for Determining Asbestos Dust Concentration". b. A draft would be prepared using the best procedures of those member companies already using this method. c. The final draft would be submitted to management of the member companies for approval. d. After their approval, the USPHS will be requested to make recommendations or suggestions before submission to the Board of Governors. The final draft will be submitted to the Board of Governors for approval at the February 1971 meeting. 2. Round Robin on Membrane-Filter Method: A report on the RoundRobin, comparing technique and reliability of the membrane- filter method was made by participating companies. It was reported that there was little if any correlation of results between companies. There was also a significant difference in results between observers. It was reported that the specimens were in poor condition after having passed from one company to one or more others. 3. Manufacturing Procedure for Dust Control: All member companies contributed Information as to their system and ideas as to the various means for dust control in the plant. It was agreed that each company would present a more detailed outline of their dust control system at the February 1971 meeting. Respectfully submitted, H.M.

A Joint meeting of the Technical and Fiber Testing Committees was held on October 8, 1970. Messers E.A. Farrell, and W.H. Smith from the Fiber Testing Committee and P.J. Smith from ASTM were present. The following topics were discussed: 1. Magnetic Rating (HR) Specification ASTM D-1118-57 a. Answers to the following questions will be sought before the next meeting: (i) Whether the average MR or maximum HR is acceptable. If the average MR is acceptable then what is the tolerable range? (ii) Is double normal sampling acceptable.? (ill) Should each reading be reported and whether it is necessary to do so. b. In view of the two types of instruments - namely, Mapes and Turner & Newall - and since the old ASTII D-1118 -57 is written around Mapes, it was decided to ask for a new ASTM number to be assigned to the new standard which is based on Turner and Newall instrument. A footnote will be attached for the old one for those who may still want to refer to it. Data showing correlation between the two will be kept in ASTM files. 2. Special meeting of Technical and Fiber Testing Committees* A special meeting has been scheduled for December 9, 1970 with the objective of completing the MR specification work. This meeting will be held at the International Hotel, located at J.F.K. International Airport, Jamaica,N.Y., starting at 9:30 A.M. 3. ASTM P-1573-61 on Heat Aging of Asbestos Textiles U.S. Army Laboratories in Natick, ilass., have conveyed their inability to carry out testing. The Wright-p'atterson Air Force Base has not replied to our inquiry. So far only one Laboratory has agreed to do the testing as specified in ASTM D-1573-&1* Respectfully submitted, Sudhakar 0. Dixit Chairman Minutes Asbestos Advisory Committee Asbestos Textile Institute October 8, 1970 - The HILTON INN - Williamsburg, Va, The Asbestos Advisory Committee met on October 8, 1970 with representatives of six member companies in attendance. The members of the committee spent most of the time in attempting to speed the process of finalizing the copy for brochure concerning health hazards involving usage of asbestos textiles. It was re emphasized that the brochure would be non-technical in nature and should explain to end users that asbestos textiles can be handled safely as long as proper precautions are established. It was agreed that the initial draft would be edited and a conference arranged with the Chairman of the Environmental Study Committee by November 15. We needed his expertise in the preparation of this type pamphlet and his professional advice that we did not publish any inaccurate information. Also on the agenda was a suggestion that Mr. Morris of Uniroyal and Hr. Scowcroft of R/M would make a call at the Navy Department in Washington,D.C., to determine the current status of the use of asbestos cloth on Naval vessels Mr. Haven Roosevelt contributed to a discussion on ways that we could publicize the contribution of asbestos to the general welfare of society rather than continually adopting a defensive attitude. The Chairman of the Committee announced that Hr. E.A. Morris had been appointed the new Chairman, effective immediately, and he thanked the members of the Committee for their advice and cooperation during the three years he headed the group. Respectfully submitted. M.Q. Scowcroft Chairman Minutes FIBER TESTING COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute October 8, 1970 - The HILTON INN, Williamsburg, Va.

On motion by lir.K.A. Roberts, seconded by Mr. P.E. Leclerc, it was voted to omit reading same. 3. The Financial Report was presented by Mr.V/.F, Brainerd on behalf of Treasurer Kuzmuk, who was unable to be present for business rea sons. Mr.Roberts moved the report be accepted, motion seconded by Mr.S.G. Dixit, and so voted unanimously. The Report is attached. k.. In the report of Legal Counsel, Mr. Roosevelt interpreted the remarks of Assistant Attorney General McLaren in an address made on April 1, 1971. In summary, Mr. Roosevelt said that Mr.McLaren stated that, in efforts to improve our environment, industries should not employ joint efforts but should act individually unless there was a strong showing by the proponents that a collective approach and the exchange of research and feasibility information would yield substantial net gains. To quote Mr. McLaren: "This nation's economic policy favors the competitive rather than the joint industry approach". The Environmental Protection Agency was advised to evaluate the need for joint industry meetings before # in such in order to avoid a possible slowing down of efforts to obtain a cleaner environment which slowing down might result from such joint efforts.^ * The word "participating"to be inserted here.) Mr. Roosevelt pointed out that the anti-trust rule is, and has been, that the actual or likely effect of a partic ular program determines whether participants will be sued or not sued by the Government. Judgement is based on whether.such actions result in some significant adverse effect. Any industry solutions to air pollution problems developed through the Asbestos Textile Inst, must be shared with all industry members, whether members of the Institute or not. Finally, Mr.Roosevelt advised that, in any discuss ion, the subject of costs be avoided. 5. The Fibre Producer's Report was given by Mr. E.A. Farrell, Sales Manager for Lake Asbestos of Quebec,Ltd., who said:- "The demand for spinning fibre is strong, but the current supply is in balance. It is expected the supply will remain adequate. Fibre Groups and 6 are in strong demand and supplies are tight. Group 7 is in good supply in spite of the fact that Flintkote Mines have announced they will shut down on December 13* 1971. Economic conditions around the world are in a state of flux as usual. Italy is in particularly bad shape with building sector off 50S. Fiat has laid off 20';! of their employees and there are sporadic industrial and service strikes. The UK and German economies have slowed down, while France is doing well% Japan has slowed down con siderably - from a growth rate of 15-18/& to 5-8;$. High labor costs have now caught up with Japan and they are now having some of their manufacturing done in lower cost areas, such as Korea and Taiwan. (continued) ,> Minutes - General Meeting - continued:- Page -3- The market for asbestos fibre continues to grow at about per year and production is now keeping up. In Canada alone there are five new properties under exploration, namely:- ABITIBI Property near AMOS, Quebec A3C0PE EX. LTD... VALDOR, Quebec (Adjacent to Abitibi) CASSIAR ASBESTOS CORP.LTD.and IvUTClIO Creek Co. - joint property McADAilS Co. - Property at Chibougamau, Quebec ' GOLDEN GATE EX'S REX Property at Haines Junction,Yukon Territory. There are also twelve other countries where asbestos is under explor ation:- Greece, Brazil, Australia, New South Males, Columbia, Med ellin, Argentina, Bolivia, Mexico, Oaxaca, Ciudad, Victoria, Cypress Swaziland, Turkey, Union of South Africa, and Sardinia.

Minutes The Asbestos Advisory Committee met with five member companies in attendance, and one absentee. A most welcome guest was Hr. W.S. Hough, a former president of ATI (now retired). At our meeting we discussed the possibility of revising the present (3rd) edition of the Handbook of Asbestos Textiles, but after con siderable discussion it was decided that a revision at the present time would be premature, and that we should review this decision a year hence. The committee feels that the promulgation of its new folder entitled "Recommended Health Safety Practices for Handling and Fabricating Asbestos Textile Products" is a positive step forward, and we again want to thank all those who assisted in bringing this project to a successful conclusion. Each member company of the Institute should have its specified number of copies in hand by now, and additional copies may be obtained from the Institute. The committee members discussed several adverse articles regarding asbestos which appeared recently in Womans Wear Daily, the New York Times, and the Wall Street Journal. Additional follow up stories have appeared in other periodicals. Unfortunately, these articles never delineate as to fiber type, quantity, length of exposure,etc. The reader is led to the conclusion that - "if it is asbestos .. it's bad." This situation is frustrating and perplexing! It was most encouraging, to hear the talk by Mr.Wm.P.Raines, Secre tary of the newly organized "Asbestos Information Association of North America", yesterday evening. Here at last we have an organiza tion capable of carrying the story of the positive need for, and the truth about asbestos to the public! Accordingly, it is the recommendation of our Committee to immedi ately establish direct liaison with the A.I.A./N.A. in order that our efforts may be coordinated with their forward plans. It was the concensus of the Committee that the Secretary of A.T.I. should be responsible for liaison with the AIA/NA, and that should he require any assistance in this respect the Asbestos Advisory Committee stands ready to support him.

On the afternoon of June 9th, the chairman of the Fiber Testing Comm ittee reported to the Board of Governors a movement to revise the manual entitled " Testing Procedures for Chrysotile Asbestos Fibre". Mr. G.F.A. Brink, being familiar with a number of the necessary changes, was invited to express his views, and agreed that the manual needed revision, further, that his company would favor A.T.I. to be in charge of the project, same as was the case with the 1st and 2nd editions. It was the opinion of those present that it would be desir able for the A.T.I. to assume the leadership in revision of the man ual. The A.T.I. is currently seeking approval of the Q.A.il.A. and the A.C.P.A. who contributed to the former editions. Assuming that all preliminaries are resolved, we hope to have copies of those changes which have already taken place in our hands by the next m't'g. Items discussed in the Joint Meetings(a) The 9th Draft of the specification for Magnetic Rating, ASTM D 1118-57* was reviewed in an effort to obtain final approval. Minor changes were made to im prove clarity. Mr.I.Barnett was asked to rewrite the section on Precision and Accuracy in accordance with ASTM's procedure. Test data wITT^benahalyzeT^yTTil's Statistical Department. (b) Mr.Nicodemus will contact the government in reference the specification Heat Aging of Asbestos Textiles, ASTM D 1573-61, in an attempt to have it deleted due to the fact that there has been no reasonable degree of correlation between different laboratories. A letter ballot will be submitted to members for approval.(Voting m'b'rs) (c) In the proposed military specification for Thermal Insulation Tape, MIL-I-153^90, a minor error in Table II of the proposed draft was noted, and the Custodian will be notified.

Xuntze, Ontario Research Foundation, and Mr. Wm.Keene from Nicolet Industries,Inc. The following subjects were discussed:- (1) ASTM D 1118 - Magnetic Rating Standard _ The 9th draft of specification D 1118 was reviewed by the joint committee and final changes were made. The section on precision and accuracy ia- being rewritten to conform to ASTM requirements,and even though the data on precision is not complete, it was decided to submit the standard to ASTII after making the necessary changes. (2) ASTM D 1973 - Heat Aging of Asbestos Textiles In view of the difficulty in locating the right type of ovens to complete the round-robin test, azid also because none of the member companies present are using this standard, it was unanimously agreed to drop this standard. Mr. P.0. Nicodemus, Chairman of ASTM D-13, Sub-committee A-lj., has agreed to contact the Federal Agencies to inform them of our decision to withdraw ASTM D 1573 (3) MIL - I - l53il9C - Insulation Tape, Thermal Reference to Amosite as felting or sliver in the core has been completely eliminated in the proposed specification. This subject will be discussed with the Board of Governors at the next meeting. Also, Table II, on Page 3 of HIL-I-15349C needs correction. The nominal weight for 5-1/2" x 7/8" tape is given as 11.60 lbs. per 25 ft. roll. This weight should be 10.60 lbs. as pointed out in our original comments.

Treasurer^ IJ J EEKABXS OF COUNSEL Fate -1 Asbestos Textile Institute - General Meeting. - October C, l1. 71 The legal authority by which the President was able to put the economic freeze into effect is Public Law 91-375, as amendec-- the Economic Stabilization Act of 1970--uhoreby "the President is authorized to issue such orcers am regulations as he may :eec. ap propriate to stabilize prices, rents, wages, ant.' salaries at levels not less than those prevailing on Kay 25, 1570." This is a limitation imposed by Congress anu means, simply, that regardless of what occurred prior to the freeze during the base period, prices are not required to be set at less than what they were on Kay 25, 1370. The level of prices prevailing on Hay 25, 1:70, is determined as follows: - (1) the average (mean) price at which transactions were made on that day (as borne out by appropriate records); . (2) if no actual transactions tool: place on that day, then the average (mean) price at which transactions too'.: place on the nearest day prior to Kay 25, 1970 may be taken as the "prevailing price level for Kay 25, 1970"; and (3) eeiling prices for poods not in existence on Kay 25, 1970 can only be calculated using the base period described in the Guide lines. , A second, limitation imposed um>er the Congressional grant of authority is that the President's authority to issue and enforce orders and regulations under the Economic Stabilization Act expires April 30, 1972. The President cannot continue the freeze beyond that date with out additional legislation enacted by Congress. If one is dealing in the American market, how then does one determine the price he may charge? Under the Preslrent'a Executive Order, prices are stabilized "at levels not greater than the highest of those pertaining to a substantial volume of actual transactions" during the base period of July 1C to August 14, lv71. In cases where no transactions occurred, in the 30-day base period, the base period, will be the nearest preceding 30-ray period in which a transaction eld occur. A "30-day period" is cefined as a 30-cay block of time prior to July 16. Hence, moving bach front July 16, the nearest 30-day period would be June 16-15, and preceding that, Kay 17-June 15, and so on. The ceiling price is the price at or above which ten per cent of the actual transactions curing the base period were mace, except that in cases of increases in postec or effective prices during the base period, the base period itself uill be considered to have begun at the time of the increase in posted and effective prices, A transaction takes place uhen a seller ships the product to a buyer, not when an order is received. Each ccciiaodity is treated separately and, if shipments are care to different classes of purchasers uncer different terms, separate ceilings are calculate:- for each cn.ii.ocity for each class of purchaser. EHiARICS OF CCUHSEL - C0HT1HUED Page -2- The ceiling price is based on the recofd of all the units of each com modity shipped to each class of purchaser curing the base period, and is calculated as the highest price at or above uhich ten per cent of the units uere shipped to a particular class of purchaser curing the base period. Under the terms of the Executive Order, the price freeze ap plies to the seller, not the buyer. The buyer is not required to police a seller's compliance uith the Executive Order. But records must be .`:ept of the highest prices charged during the base period, and rust be available for public inspection. If a product or service is "neu", the ceiling price is deter mined by the seller applying the percentage mark-up he received during the base period on the most nearly similar product or service to the direct unit or net invoice cost of the neu product or service. The ceiling price for a product or service that is new to the seller, but not to the mar'iet, is the price realized on the same or comparable product or service by the most nearly comparable competitor during the base period. . We turn now to tva specific problem areas: discounts and long term contracts. What is the selling price for a material if there have been dual price situations, l.e., a published price and a dis counted price at uhich actual transactions uere made? The ansucr is that sales may be made at the highest price at uhich a substantial volume of actual transactions uere made during the 30-day period of time ending August 14. If products have been selling at a discounted price and not at the published price during the base period, the maximum price uould be the highest discounted price at uhich substantial trans actions uere made. Thus, assuming Chat during the base period bags of insulation uere selling at the list price, and also at a discount of six sixes, If a substantial number of transactions uere made at the list price, then the list price, and anything below the list price could be charged, including a discount of four sixes, because the price freeze (iocs not fix prices at their highest permissible level -- it prohibits sales at a price higher than the permissible level. Houever, if all 6alcs during the base period uere made at the discounted price of six sixes cad there uere not iu fact substantial actual transactions at a higher price, then the price uould have to be frozen at the six sixes discounted price', and it uould not be permissible to decrease the dis count to four sixes, as that uould raise the price over the highest level during, the base period. Where different prices are offered, to different territories, or different :inds of customers, price ceilings are to be set on the basis of the nortal procedures used in establishing the martet prices. Kar'tct price ceilings bust be established at no greater than the highest price at uhich substantial volume transactions uere carried out in the firm's individual normal pricing areas, regardless of uhether these pricing areas are national, regional, or Individual. ' O. ;j REMARKS OF COUNSEL - CONTINUED Page -3- If quantity discounts are offered, can a'customer who purchased large volumes and uas previously eligible for the discount be charged the applicable higher price if he reduces the amount of his purchases and thus falls into a lower quantity and higher price bracket? In other words, may prices be changed so long as the rate structure on which they are based is not changed? The answer is yes. During the 90-day freeze, customers may be charged in accordance with rate of price schedules established in the base period prior to August 15, 1971. However, the charges applicable to the various categories of rates or prices set out in the effective schedules may not be increased. Further more, if it has been the practice to give discounts under certain cir cumstances, these discounts canuot be discontinued during the freeze. The rule with respect to long-term contracts is that if the . contract uas made before the freeze, and there ere no deliveries - scheduled until after the freeze, the freeze does not apply. If any deliveries are to be made during the freeze period, the seller may- charge no more than his celling price determined by the price charged for deliveries made during the base period. If the shipment price on a contract made prior to the freeze and calling for delivery during the freeze is above the ceiling price, the seller may elect not to perform at all, but he is not permitted to perform at a contract price above the ceiling price. Nor may he force the buyer to accept ship ment deferred to a date after the freeze. If the seller does make delivery, the buyer is obligated to pay no more than the ceiling-price. Haven C.

OCTOBER STH. 1971 Shipments of Canadian asbestos fibre for the first seven months of 1`:'71 were L'V2tL(.4 tons or 3.3% higher than for the same periad in 1970. The availability of all grades of spinning fibre is good am. this situ ation can be expected, to continue for some time in the future. The application of the U.S. surcharge does not apply to asbestos fibre, but indirectly Che surcharge will affect sales of asbestos fibre to such countries as Japan and Nest Germany. Prior Co the application of the surcharge some weakness in demand was evident in many of the Inter national markets. . World production of asbestos fibre in l:.-70 was 3,22,C40 tons versus 3,(31,250 tons in I'JtJ or an increase of approximately 5%. The problems related to asbestos and health are of continuing concern to the asbestos fibre producers. It is unfortunate indeed that the press representatives continue to ta'.e statements out of context and to be more Interested in sensationalism rather than facts. ' .> Finally, the following comments are pertinent to the status of some new asbestos producers, vis: a) The new producer in Australia is forecast to be in production in early 1'.'72 at a rate of 75,000 tons per year. b) The asbestos producer in Brazil, located north of Brazilia, is expectedi to be increased from 13,000 to 27,000 tons. c) The Colorblan asbestos fibre prospect could reach the production stage at a rate of approximately 25,000 tons per year. d) Work is being continued to develop an asbestos producer in Central Colombia. If financing can be arranged the production rate is ex pected to be 25,000 tons annually. e) Nor'-: is being continued by Cerro Corporation toward the evaluation of an asbestos deposit in Central Greece.

(USA representative) ` Minutes **hhk This meeting was, in part, held as a joint committee meeting with the Environmental Health Committee. The meeting was opened with a brief review of some of the environmental protection equipment being used by some of our members. _ Mr.J.L. Rainey presented a paper entitled "Moist Spinning Process" written by Mr. J.W. Weber, Chairman of the Board, American Asbestos Textile Corporation. Hr. Rainey discussed the data in the paper which indicates that a stronger, more dust free yarn is obtained when moisture, in the form of water or an emulsion, is applied at the rub apron of the carding machine. While the process was developed prim arily for the purpose of reducing the atmospheric dust count on the delivery end of the carding machines (where the greater part of the card-tenders time is spent) it has been found that other advantages result in subsequent operations as explained in Mr. Weber's paper which is included with these minutes. Committee members were most appreciative of Mr. Webers cooperation in supplying the results of his extensive experimental development work for the benefit of our industry.! Members desiring further information on this process may write direct to Mr. J.W.Weber, American Asbestos Textile Corporation, F.O. Box 220, Norristown,Pa. 19404 (USA). Considerable time was soont in reviewing the Occupational Safety & Health Act (OSHA) and the anticipated Emission Standards for asbestos soon to be established by the Environmental Protection Agency. Mr. Sheckler urged that the ATI member companies undertake to collect industry plant data and employee data that would be helpful to AIA/NA in testifying before sub-committee hearings in Washington,L.C.. At the present time our industry, as such, lacks the facts to refute or challenge statements *so adverse to asbestos that have received such wide publicity in the last several years. It was therefore the Joint recommendation of the Air Hygiene C: iifg. and the Environmental Health Committees that the Institute establish a program to obtain ' 0 O Minutes - Air Hygiene L Mfg. Committee - continued:- Page -2- meaningful data for use in guiding national standards. It was sug gested that a start could be made by contacting Dr. Lewis J. Cralley, formerly in charge of Division of Epidemiology & Special Services, USPHS, Dept, of HEW, under whose supervision in-plant surveys of asbestos plants and employees were made by Federal authorities over a period of many years. Dr. Cralley is presently employed as a consultant to Marcus Key,M.D., Head of the National Institute of Occupational Safety 2i Health. It is hoped that the data now in the Dept, of HEW files can be released for possible benefit to the asbestos textile industry. Following the meeting, arrangements \;ere made to ship the ATI's Bausch tz Lomb Dust Counter to the American Asbestos Textile Corp. plant at 2! orris town, ?a. It will be shipped from GARLOCK IHC. Respectfully submitted, . K.A. Roberts, Acting chairman MOIST SPIimiiTG PROCESS by:- J.W. Weber ' Moisture is applied to roving at the rub-apron section of the carding machines'. The moisture may be in the form of water or an emulsion. Sufficient moisture is added to increase the total water content of the roving to from $ to 7 percent. Since the moisture is applied by the rub aprons to the fibers at the surface of the roving, this process is particularly effective in preventing asbestos from flying off the roving and yarn during the following spinning, twist ing and winding operations. In relatively dry roving and yarn, the asbestos fibers adhering to the outside tend to becom airborne. The application of moisture to the outer surface of the roving also results in tho retention of a relatively lofty yarn (which is desirable),rather than the creation of the condensed condition of an extruded yam. While the process has been developed primarily for the purpose of reducing the atmospheric dust count on the delivery end of the carding machines (where the greater part of tho card-tender's time is spent), and in subsequent operations such as spinning, twisting, and winding, it has been found that this process Imparts considerable strength to the roving and thereby results in greatly reduced roving brealcs during spinning. This further reduces the dust count at the spinning frames, since broken ends on the bobbins raise a virtual dust storm. We have found further that, since the moist roving is in a somewhat more compact condition when being wound on the card spools, considerably moro yardage can be wound on spools of the same diameter than can be achieved with relatively dry roving. In order to determine the relative merits of moist vs relatively dry roving at the spinning operation, asbestos fiber counts were taken, results of which are indicated in the following table :- (Dee .'age 3) :O J Minutes - Air Hygiene ft.

The aain topic of our discussions concerned the legislation which either has been promulgated, or which is pending, regarding the use in certain applications of asbestos products. We are aware of the instructions which the Kavy Department has . issued to its repair facilities regarding the use of asbestos textile products; and we are told that other, more stringent notices are awaiting issuance. 1 The impact and effect of these instructions, adverse to asbestos products, is severe, and they present us with a most frustrating situation. It is frustrating because wo are forced to continually maintain a defensive position -- and we have very little evidence at hand to refute the charges which are levelled at the use of asbestos products. However, such evidence possibly does exist. Some seven years ago. Dr. Lewis J. Cralley of the Dept, of Health,Education : Welfare, undertook a study of the asbestos textile industry in an effort to truly measure the health hazards involved in the manufacture of asbestos products. This study ha9 never been completed, and only fragmentary reports have been issued. Accordingly, the Asbestos Advisory Committee lias requested that iir. C.L. Sheckler, Chairman of the ATI Environmental Health Comm ittee, meet with Dr. Cralley and try to obtain the following information (1) ^/hat is the exact status of the Cralley Report? (2) What can the.ATI do to assist in completing it? (3) What are the future plans regarding the effective use of Dr. Cralley's report once it is completed? In addition we have asked Hr. Sheckler to extend an invitation to Dr. Cralley to attend our next meeting which is to bo hold in Charleston, S.C. on February 2-3*1972. We look forward to the report of ilr. Sheckler's visit with Dr. Cralley with great interest.1 Respectfully submitted, E.A.

Sato -> Nippon Asbestos Co.,Ltd. (USA representative) <khhj* Minutes This meeting was, in part, held as a joint committee meeting with the Environmental Health Committee. The meeting was opened with a brief review of some of the environmental protection equipment being used by some of our members. Hr.J.L. Rainey presented a paper entitled "Moist Spinning Process" written by Mr. J.W. Weber, Chairman of the Board, American Asbestos Textile Corporation. Mr. Rainey discussed the data in the paper which indicates that a stronger, more dust free yarn is obtained when moisture, in the form of water or an emulsion, is applied at the rub apron of the carding machine. While the process was developed prim arily for the purpose of reducing the atmospheric dust count on the delivery end of the carding machines (where the greater part of the card-tenders time is spent) it has been found that other advantages result in subsequent operations as explained in Mr. Weber's paper which is included with these minutes. Committee members were most appreciative of Mr. Webers cooperation in supplying the results of his extensive experimental development work for the benefit of our industry. 1 Members desiring further information on this process may write direct to Hr.J.W.Weber, American Asbestos Textile Corporation, P.0. Box 228, Norristown,Pa. 19tj.Ql4. (USA). Considerable time was spent in reviewing the Occupational Safety & Health Act (OSHA) and the anticipated Emission Standards for asbestos soon to be established by the Environmental Protection Agency. Mr. Sheckler urged that the ATI member companies undertake to collect industry plant data and employee data that would bo helpful to AIA/NA in testifying before sub-committee hearings in Washington,M.C.. At the present time our industry, as such, lacks the facts to refute or challenge statements so adverse to asbestos that have received such wide publicity in the last several years. It was therefore the joint recommendation of the Air Hygiene c": iifg. and the Environmental Health Committees that the Institute establish a program to obtain Minutes - Air Hygiene ft Mfg; Committee - continued:- Page -2- meaningful data for use in guiding national standards. It was sug gested that a start could be made by contacting Dr. Lewis J. Cralley, formerly in charge of Division of ISpidemiology & Special Services, USPHS, Dept, of HEtf, under whose supervision in-plant surveys of asbestos plants and employees were made by Federal authorities over a period of many years* Dr* Cralley is presently employed as a consultant to Marcus Key,II.D,, Head of the National Institute of Occupational Safety & Health. It is hoped that the data now in the Dept, of H3W files can be released for possible benefit to the asbestos textile industry. Following the meeting, arrangements were made to ship the ATI's Bausch ft Lomb Dust Counter to the American asbestos Textile Corp. plant at Norristown,?a. It will be shipped from GARLOCK INC. Respectfully submitted, K.A. Roberts, Acting chairman MOIST SPINNING PROCESS by:- J.W. Weber Moisture is applied to roving at the rub-apron section of the carding machines. The moisture may be in the form of water or an emulsion. Sufficient moisture is added to increase the total water content of the roving to from 5 to 7 percent. Since the moisture is applied by the rub aprons to the fibers at the surface of the roving, this process is particularly effective in preventing asbestos from flying off the roving and yarn during the following spinning, twist ing and winding operations. In relatively dry roving and yarn, the asbestos fibers adhering to the outside tend to becom airborne. The application of moisture to the outer surface of the roving also results in the retention of a relatively lofty yam (which is desirable),rather than the creation of the condensed condition of an extruded yam. While the process has been developed primarily for the purpose of reducing the atmospheric dust count on the delivery end of the carding machines (where the greater part of the card-tender's time is spent), and in subsequent operations such as spinning, twisting, and winding, it has been found that this process imparts considerable strength to the roving and thereby results in greatly reduced roving breaks during spinning. This further reduces the dust count at the spinning fraises, since broken ends on the bobbins raise a virtual dust storm. We have found further that, since the moist roving is in a somewhat more compact condition when being wound on the card spools, considerably more yardage can be wound on spools of the same diameter than can be achieved with relatively dry roving. In order to determine the relative merits of moist vs relatively dry roving at the spinning operation, asbestos fiber counts were taken, results of which are indicated in the following table:- (Dee 3) Minutes - Air Hygiene ft Hfg.

Weber Chairman of the Board ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE Minute# - ASBESTOS ADVISORY COMMITTEE meeting Ootober 7# 1971 - Savannah, Ga. tHHHHt Minutes The Asbestos Advisory Committee met with all member companies in attendance. The main topic of our discussions concerned the legislation which either has been promulgated, or which is pending, regarding the use in certain applications of asbestos products. We are aware of the instructions which the Navy Department has issued to its repair facilities regarding the use of asbestos textile products; and we are told that other, more stringent notices are awaiting issuance.I The impact and effect of these instructions, adverse to asbestos products, is severe, and they present us with a most frustrating situation. It is frustrating because we are forced to continually maintain a defensive position -- and we have very little evidence at hand to refute the charges which are levelled at the use of asbestos products. However, such evidence possibly does exist. Some seven years ago. Dr. Lewis J. Cralley of the Dept, of Health,Sducation cs Welfare, undertook a study of the asbestos textile industry in an effort to truly measure the health hazards involved in the manufacture of asbestos products. This study has never been completed, and only fragmentary reports have been issued. Accordingly, the Asbestos Advisory Committee has requested that iir. C.L. Sheckler, Chairman of the ATI Environmental Health Comm ittee, meet with Dr. Cralley and try to obtain the following information (1) What is the exact status of the Cralley Report7 (2) What can the ATI do to assist in completing it? (3) What are the future plans regarding the effective use of Dr. Cralley'a report once it is completed? In addition we have asked iir. Sheckler to extend an invitation to Dr. Cralley to attend our next meeting which is to be held in Charleston, S.C. on February 2-3#1972. We look forward to the report of Mr. Sheckler's visit with Dr. Cralley with great interest.J Respectfully submitted, E.A.

Treasurer^ remarks of counsel Page -1 Asbestos Textile Institute - General Meeting - October C, 171 The legal authority by which the President was able to put the economic freeze into effect is Public Law 91-373, as amend ec -- the Economic Stabilization Act of 1970--whereby "the President is authorized to issue such orcers and regulations as he may < een. ap propriate to stabilize prices, rents, wages, anc salaries at levels not less than those prevailing on May 25, lv70." This is a limitation imposed by Congress anc means, simply, that regarcless of what occurred prior to the freeze during the base period, prices are not required to be set at less than what they were on May 25, 1370. The level of prices prevailing on May 25, 1;70, is ceteruineci as follows: (1) the average (mean) price at which transactions were made on that day (as borne out by appropriate records); (2) if no actual transactions toon place on that day, then the average (mean) price at which transactions took place on the nearest day prior to May 25, 1970 may be taken as the "prevailing price level for May 25, 1970"; and (3) ceiling prices for goods not in existence on May 25, 1970 can only be calculated using the base period describee' in the Guide lines. A second limitation imposed unoer the Congressional grant of authority is that the President's authority to issue and enforce orders and regulations umer the Economic Stabilization Act expires April 30, 1972. The President cannot continue the freeze beyond that date with out additional legislation enacted by Congress. If one is dealing in the American market, how then coes one determine the price he may charge? Under the Presitent's Executive Order, prices are stabilised "at levels not greater than the highest of those pertaining to a substantial volume of actual transactions" during the base period of July 16 to August 14, 1971. In cases where no transactions occurred in the 30-day base period, the base period will be the nearest preceding 30-ay per lot' in which a transaction cid occur. A "30-day period" is defined as a 30-cay block of time prior to July 16. Hence, moving back from July 16, the nearest 30-day period would be June 16-15, and preceding that. May 17-June 15, and so on. The ceiling price is the price at or above which ten per cent of the actual transactions during the base perioc were mate, except that in cases of increases in posted or effective prices during the base period, the base period itself will be consieered to have begun at the time of the increase in posted ant effective prices. A transaction takes place when a seller ships the product to a buyer, not when an order is received. Each commodity is treated separately and, if shipments are made to different classes of purchasers under different terms, separate ceilings are calculated for each commodity for each class of purchaser. REMARKS OF COUNSEL - CONTINUED Page -2 'I , The ceiling price is based on Che record of all che units of each com modity shipped to each class of purchaser during the base period, and is calculated as the highest price at or above which ten per cent of the units were shipped to a particular class of purchaser curing the base period. Under the terms of the Executive Order, the price freeze ap plies to the seller, not the buyer. The buyer is not required to police a seller's compliance with the Executive Order. But records must be :ept of the highest prices charged during the base period, and must be available for public inspection. If a product or service is "new", the ceiling price is deter mined by the seller applying the percentage mark-up he received during the base period on the most nearly similar product or service to the direct unit or net invoice cost of the new product or service. The ceiling price for a product or service that is new to the seller, but not to the market, is the price realized on the same or comparable produce or service by the most nearly comparable competitor during the base period. Me turn nou to two specific problem areas: discounts and long term contracts. What is the selling price for a material if there have been dual price situations, i.e., a published price and a dis counted price at which actual transactions were made? The answer is that sales may be made at the highest price at which a substantial volume of actual transactions were made during the 30-dsy period of time ending August 14. If products have been selling at a discounted price and not at the published price during the base period, the maximum price would be the highest discounted price at which substantial trans actions were made. Thus, assuming that during the base period bags of insulation were selling at the list price, and also at a discount of six sixes, if a substantial number of transactions were made at the list price, then the list price, and anything below the list price could be charged, including a discount of four sixes, because the price freeze does not fix prices at their highest permissible level -- it prohibits sales at a price higher than the permissible level. However, if all sales during the base period were made at the discounted price of six sixes and there were not in fact substantial actual transactions at a higher price, then the price would have to be frozen at the six sixes discounted price, and it would not be permissible to decrease the dis count to four sixes, as that would raise the price over the highest level during the base period. Where different prices are offered to different territories, or different :inds of customers, price ceilings are to be set on the basis of the norcal procedures used in establishing the market prices. Mar'cet price ceilings must be established at no greater than the highest price at uhieh substantial volume transactions were carried out in the firm's individual normal pricing areas, regardless of whether these pricing areas are national, regional, or individual. REMARKS OP COUNSEL - CONTINUED Page -3- If quantity discounts ar$ offered} can a customer who purchased large volumes and was previously eligible fot the discount be charged the applicable higher price if he retuces the amount of his purchases and thus falls into a lower quantity end higher price bracket? In other words, may prices be changed so long as the rate structure on which they are based is not changed? The answer is yes. During the 90-day freeze, customers may be charged in accordance with rate of price schedules established in the base period prior to August 15, 1971. However, the charges applicable to the various categories of rates or prices set out in the effective schedules may not be increased. Further more, if it has been the practice to give discounts under certain cir cumstances, these discounts cannot be discontinued during the freeze. The rule with respect to long-term contracts is that if the contract was made before the freeze, and there are no deliveries scheduled until after the freeze, the freeze does not apply. If any deliveries are to be made curing the freeze period, the seller may charge no more than his ceiling price determined by the price charged for deliveries made during the base period. If the shipment price on a contract made prior to the freeze and calling for delivery during the freeze is above the ceiling price, the seller may elect not to perform at all, but he is not permitted to perform at a contract price above the ceiling price. Nor may he force the buyer to accept ship ment deferred to a date after the freeze. If the seller does make delivery, the buyer is obligated to pay no more than the ceiling price. Haven C. Roosevelt, Atty. Ca'dwalader, Wicicersham & Taft ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE PRESENTATION BY N. W. HENDRY FRIDAY. OCTOBER CTH. 1971 Shipments of Canadian asbestos fibre for the first seven months of 1971 were ic:i;2(LC-4 tons or 3.3X higher than for the same period in 1970. The availability of all grades of spinning fibre is good am. this situ* ation can be expected to continue for some time in the future. The application of the U.S. surcharge does not apply to asbestos fibre, but indirectly the surcharge will affect sales of asbestos fibre to 'such countries as Japan and West Germany. Prior to the application of the surcharge seme weakness in demand was evident in many of the Inter* national markets. World production of asbestos fibre in 1..70 was 3,22,C40 tons versus 3,fc3i ,250 tons in lJf.J or an increase of approximately 5X. The problems related to asbestos and health are of continuing concern to the asbestos fibre producers. It is unfortunate inoeed that the press representatives continue to ta: e statements out of context and to be more interested in sensationalism rather than facts. Finally, the following comments are pertinent to the status of some new asbestos producers, viz: a) The new producer in Australia is forecast to be in production in early l';72 at a rate of 75,000 tons per year. b) The asbestos producer in Brazil, located north of Brazilia, is ex* pected to be increased from 13,000 to 27,000 tons. c) The Colombian asbestos fibre prospect coulc! reach the production stage at a rate of approximately 25,000 tons per year. d) Work is being continued to develop an asbestos producer in Central Colombia. If financing can be arranged the production rate is ex* pected to be 25,000 tons annually. e) Work is being continued by Cerro Corporation toward the evaluation of an asbestos deposit in Central Greece.

During his informative talk, Mr. Sheckler MINUTES - GENERAL MEETING - CONTINUED Page -3- mentioned that It was presently uncertain what agency would establish a standard TLV (Threshold Lio.it Value) for asbestos. He is very ap prehensive that an impossibly law TLV will be adopted and so make it impossible for asbestos o>anufacturers to stay in business if it is to be enforced. In respect to OSHA, confusion exists how to advise employees of standards, what records to keep, etc. Stressed the need for background data from industry to use in fighting bac.; against adverse publicity oirected at asbestos-containing products. 11.

All of these men expressed their pleasure in attending, and their gratification to know that ATI continued to be an important factor in our industry. "Jack" Bettes, author of "The History of the Asbestos Textile Industry in the United States," now appearing serially in the ASBESTOS Magazine, expressed his appreciation for the historical data supplied to him by many people (approx. 100) without whose help he would have been unable to compile as complete a history. He spoke most highly of the ASBESTOS Magazine, and recommended that it be given company advertising on a continuing baala in appreciation of the fact that it is the only media devoted to the asbestos industry, and its files are a valuable store house of information pertaining to our industry. The magazine will have Reprints of "History" if orders warrant, and suggests orders be sent them promptly (he receives no profit from same). 13. Mr. E.A. Morris moved that Mr. John A.

Leclerc, Regional Sales Manager, ASBESTOS CORPORATION LIMITED, In reporting for the FIBRE PRODUCERS stated:- "Due to a very heavy demand for asbestos in 1970 quite a number of orders remained unshipped at the end of that year and resulted in a backlog of orders that were carried into 1971. Shipments in the first three months of the year 1971 showed an increase of more than 8Z over the corresponding period of 1970. As at June 30, 1971, total shipments by the Q.A.M.A. members in Eastern Canada, were up 11Z over 1970. Then came the slow months of July, August, September and October. While November and December showed considerable improvement over the previous four months, total shipments for the year were down 2% as compared to 1970. The demand for Group 3 fibres was lower during the past year and shipments were down 13.SZ for the 12 months. This brings us into 1972 with fairly good inventories of all grades including Group 3, with the exception of crudes which are in very short supply. To sum it up, insofar as the members of the ATI are concerned, all grades of Group 3 spinning fibres are available and our friends in British Columbia are in the same position with the possible exception of Grade AAA. It is hoped that the expected improvement in business conditions in this country (USA) will materialize and the asbestos producers earnestly hope that the textile industry will have a very good year in 1972." President Moody expressed the appreciation of ATI members to Mr. Leclerc for his comprehensive report. 6. Announcements:- President Moody announced that the new chairman of the Fiber Testing Committee was Mr. C. E. Stiefken (ASARC0)* who has served on that committee for several years as a representative of Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd. The appointment is effective at once. In anticipation that Chairman Sheckler of the Environmental Health Committee will tender his resignation in the near future, Mr. L. F. Dieringer, Industrial Hygienist, Uniroyal, Inc., was appointed chairman of that committee effective with the next meeting, June 7-8-, 1972. Mr. Norman D. Brown, who has represented Johns-Manville Corporation on the Board of Governors for approximately one and one-half years has resigned due to a ` change in his job responsibilities. Mr. Malcom S. Lindstrom was elected to the Board of Governors as J/M's new representative. * ASARC0 (American Smelting & Refining Company) parent company of Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Limited.) Minutes - ATI General Meeting - cont Page 3 7.

BACKGROUND The Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act (29 U.S.C. 655) was signed into law on December 29, 1970, and became effective April 28, 1971. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) was established to administer the Act under the Department of Labor. The expressed purpose of the legislation is "to assure so far as possible every working man and woman in the Nation safe and healthful working conditions and to preserve our human resources . ..." To implement this purpose, provision is made for the pro mulgation of mandatory occupational health and safety standards, as well as related research, information, education and training functions. Machinery is also provided to assist and encourage the states to develop satisfactory programs to promote occupational safety and health. The Secretary of Labor is authorized to set three types of standards: interim, permanent and emergency. Whenever the compliance division of OSHA concludes that an employer (defined as a person "engaged in a business affecting commerce who has employees . . . .") has violated a standard, a citation is issued and the employer is notified of any proposed penalty. If the employer objects to the citation or the proposed penalty, the Occupational Safety and Health Appeals Commission conducts a review and issues an order, which is subject to judicial review by a U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. OSHA, in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare, is proceeding to develop and carry out occupational safety and health research. HEW has responsibilities under the Act, and these are oeing met by the newly formed National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). NIOSH is responsible for most occupational safety and health research, evaluation of hazards, toxicity determinations and manpower training and development. Also, it is undertaking special industry-wide studies of chronic or low-level exposure to hazardous substances as well as research into psychological, motivational and behavioral factors involved in occupational safety and health programs. INCREASED EMPHASIS ON HEALTH OSHA's increased concern with occupational health problems is prompted by the fact that about 60% of the complaints received by it have alleged health hazards. As part of its emphasis on health, OSHA issued an emergency standard limiting the exposure of employees to asbestos dust, effective December 7, 1971. The standard was adopted pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Act following studies by NIOSH and recommendations by the American Conference on Government Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). It has been determined by both JIIOSH and ACGIH that the former asbestos standard constituted a grave danger to employees exposed to an 8-hour time weighted average concentration and, thus, an emergency standard was required. The old standard for exposure to asbestos dust was promulgated under the Walsh-Healey Public Contracts Act on May 20, 1969. It called for no more than 12 fibers per milliliter greater than five microns in length or two million particles per cubic foot of air. OSHA termed this 12-fiber level of exposure "a grave danger to employees exposed to this 8-hour time weighted average concentration." Remarks of Counsel - conC. Page 2 NIOSH agreed with ACGIH chat Che new standard would provide a substantial base for the protection of workers In contact with asbestos dust. It limits the 8-hour time weighted average airborne concentration of asbestos dust to which employees are exposed to no more than five fibers per milliliter greater than five microns in length. Con centrations above five fibers per milliliter, but not to exceed ten fibers, are permissible up to a total of 15 minutes per hour up to five hours in an 8-hour day. An emergency temporary asbestos standard of two fibers per milliliter had been re quested by the AFL-CIO in a letter to the Department of Labor. The union cited as evidence of the need for a revised standard a study conducted by Dr. Irvin J. Selikoff and the staff of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (in cooperation with the AFL-CIO and the Ad Hoc Committee on the Asbestos Hazard of the AFL-CIO Industrial Union Department). The five-fiber emergency standard was criticized by Lorln H. Kerr, M. D., chief of the Department of Occupational Health for the United Mine Workers of America. He stated that the standard "is appreciably higher than the non-hazardous level" called for in recent medical publications. Dr. Raymond Murphy of the department of physiology at Harvard, who has studied the effects of asbestos dust exposure on industrial workers, agrees with the union physician. Dr.MUrphy concludes that even a level of two fibers per milliliter, or one-thousandth of a liter, may be hazardous to health. Dr. Murphy and his colleagues found that lung disease developed in workers who sanded asbestos floor tiles and were chronically exposed to about 1.3 fibers per milliliter. Also, in a letter to Assistant Labor Secretary George Guenther, Dr. Kerr advised that the UMW is "equally concerned that this emergency standard is restricted in its applicability to construction workers," to the exclusion of coal milers (who are covered by the Coal Mine Health and Safety Act). Recent studies indicate that some strip miners may be exposed to dangerous levels of asbestos dust. On January 11, 1972, OSHA announced that, pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Act, a rule-making proceeding was being initiated to consider amending the regulations under the Act (29 CFR Part 1910). Interested persons are invited to submit data, views and arguments concerning the permanent adoption of the emergency standard and additional proposed rules on subsidiary issues. The views must be submitted by February 11. In addition, oral data, views and arguments will be received by a hearing examiner on March 14. As proposed January 11, the temporary standard shall apply to "every employee . . . in every employment and place of employment... ^covered by X 1910.12, 1910.13, 1910.-14, 1910.15, or 1910.16 of this Subpart B (of 29 CFR Part 1910)7' , in lieu or any different standard on exposure to asbestos dust which would otherwise be applicable (by virtue of any of those sections)." . The promulgation of the temporary emergency standard is in line with the increasing concern of OSHA with occupational health problems. Assistant Secretary Guenther recently suggested that more trade associations establish industry-wide committees on job safety and health. Their functions should be to analyze standards in order to determine which are specifically relevant to the particular industry, to recommend that trade association members participate in standards-making activities, to suggest new standards and to advise members of the trade on technical matters. On January 4, 1972, OSHA announced a "Target Health Hazards" program whose purpose is to reduce the health hazards posed by exposure to five toxic substances" -- asbestos, cotton dust, silica, lead and carbon monoxide. Mr. Guenther described it as the health counterpart to the safety-oriented Target Industries Program. Remarks of Counsel - cont Page 3 Zn announcing che Target Health Hazards program, Mr. Guenther noted that asbestos can produce asbestosis and asbestos fibers In the lungs may lead to cancer. Urgent action to curtail this health hazatd Is Indicated by the fact that In the fields of Insulation, manufacturing of prodncts using asbestos, shipbuilding, construction and other Industries, there are more than 200,000 employees who face risks from asbestos exposure. 0SHA conducted an "Executive-briefing Special Session" on the Target Health Hazards program In Washington on January 26, which Mr. Sheckler of Johns-Manvllle attended. The briefing was aimed at informing employers of the details of the program. Yesterday, February 2, a general orientation meeting was scheduled for management, labor, government and professionals. On the state level, the Illinois Pollution Control Board, in January 1972, passed controls on asbestos which prohibit the manufacturing or the processing of asbestoscontaining products without a permit after June 30, 1972. Such material applied in construction or repair must be coated with a sealant and installed to safeguard against emissions. Emission from plants manufacturing such products will be limited to two fibers per cubic centimeter of air. Emission regulation is also applied to demolition projects, and all transported asbestos material must be enclosed. A ban was placed on the spraying of such materials or fibers as well as on visible emissions of nonasbestos fibers in open areas during construction, alteration and repair of structures as of March 31, 1972. The City of Chicago passed a similar, but less stringent, ban. \ CONCLUSION Since the Federal Act became effective, the emphasis by 0SHA has shifted in at least two significant ways. During the early stages, the so-called "general duty clause" was the basis for many compliance actions. This clause is Section 5(a)(1) of the Act. It states" "Each employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees." As evidenced by OSHA's enforcement actions, the general duty clause was not mere window dressing. However, as standards for safety and health have been promulgated and adopted by OSHA, use of the general duty clause has given way to the enforcement of these specific standards themselves. . The second major shift in emphasis has been from the initial accent on safety, as evidenced by the Target Industries Program, to a concentration on occupational health hazards. This has resulted from statistics compiled by OSHA which show that most com plaints concern health rather than safety hazards. But it would be erroneous to think that either the general duty clause of OSHA's concern with safety conditions can be ignored with impunity by employers. Instead, the conclusion must be that now OSHA is equally concerned with health hazards as with safety problems and is moving forward to develop, adopt and continually improve standards for occupational health and safety, all in coordination with NIOSH.

Hawkins William Maaskant D.T. Austin' J.W. Echerd' Raybestoe-Manhattan, Inc. American Asbestos Textile Corp. Uniroyal, Inc. H.K. Porter Company, Inc. . The ASTM Asbestos Textile Standards approved in 1967 are up for revision this year. These include D1571, p3l5 and D1918. Most of the Technical Committee's time was used in work on ASTM Specification D1571 and review of proposed Revision nCn of MIL-C-822U9. The following recommendations were made: D1571, Woven Asbestos Cloth 1. That we investigate increasing the relative humidity require ment from 50 to 65 to agree with Specification D1776 for Standard Conditions. 2. That we issue a statement on Precision and Accuracy similar to that we used in Standard D628. MIL-C-822L9; Cloth, Coated, Asbestos, Herringbone Twill, Aluminized. Proposed Rev. "C". , 1. That the committee chairman write Mr. C.J. Zemme requesting the reference to cotton be eliminated in Item 1*1 and that "cotton fibers" be replaced by "nontoxic organic fibers" in Item 3*2.1. MIL-I-2L2Ut, Insulation'Materials, Thermal, with Special Corrosion and Chloride Requirements - the committee recommends that producers of material sold against MIL-I-2lj2Ui specify the material conforms to specification when shinned. Contamination in route may alter the chemical composition before it reaches its destination. It was reported that the following items were approved by subcommittee Ah of ASTM committee D-13. 1. Proposed revision of "Magnetic Rating of Asbestos Fibers and Textile Products" dated December 3, 1971 (D1118). 2. Proposed revision Section lii on Precision and Accuracy "Asbestos Content of Asbestos Textile Materials". (D1918). 3. Deletion of Standard "Heat Aging of Asbestos Textiles". (D1573). The Spring Meeting of Committee D-13, Subcommittee A-L will be held at the 3elm:rt Plana Hotel, Hew York, N.Y. on March 22, 1972. Cur Task Group on Revision of Standards will meet at 9:30 A.M.

Bell Asbestos Mines Limited Bernard Lincoln ........................................ Turner & Nevall, Ltd. H. E. Sunbury ........................................A.T.I. Mr. Sunbury, Secretary of A.T.I., opened the meeting, and announced that Mr. Steifken had been appointed as the new chairman of the Fiber Testing Committee at the meeting of the Board of Governors on the previous day. He succeeds Mr. D. E. Childers who has served as chairman during 1970 and 1971. Mr. Stiefken.is an employee of the American Smelting & Refining Company (ASARCO) and has represented their subsidiary, Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd., on this committee for several years. Taking over as Chairman Mr. Stiefken called attention to the fact that only one Regular Member of A.T.I. had a representative serving on the Fiber Testing Committee (Mr. Childers) at the present time and that this created an imbalance which should be corrected promptly. The Secretary agreed to bring this matter to the attention of the Board of Governors. The meeting was devoted exclusively to discussion of the setting up of a 3rd Edition of the manual "Testing Procedures for Chrysotile Asbestos Fibre". Included in the discussion were revisions of tests adopted recently by the Q.A.M.A. The new edition of the manual, from present indications, will probably be con siderably larger. The present thought is to have it in loose-leaf form. While no cost estimates have yet been obtained there is every reason to believe that the new edition will cost substantially more than the 1966 edition, which was $1.89 per copy. The function of the A.T.I. Fiber Testing Committee in this endeavor will be to take the lead in assembling the newer tests, and revisions of older tests, into a comprehensive manual. This committee will have the final approval and will therefore have to review every test procedure. We anticipate a task force meeting of the committee with representatives of the QAMA Technical Committee will be advisable to expedite the work. This should be held in the near future at a mutually convenient place - possibly Sherbrooke or Montreal. Respectfully submitted, C. E. Stiefken, Chairman MINUTES Air Hygiene & Mfg.

The use of baling equipment was discussed, but same is felt to be unacceptable due to the fact that the final compressed unit is not wrapped thus leaving the asbestos fibers exposed. 2. Vacuum Cleaning Procedures, and Equipment used to Comply with the Ban on Dry Sweeping. - All member companies reported that they were working on programs to eliminate dry sweeping. Two companies reported that they have discussed the use of sweeping compounds and items such as "Endust" with the OSHA inspector. In both cases the inspectors indicated that using these sweeping aids would be acceptable. There was considerable discussion of the types of vacuum equipment in use. Reference was made to the following: Abington (central system) Atlas (55 gallon drum type) Batson Litter Gitter Billy Goat Clark(wet & dry) Huf fman Nilfish Tennent Walkie-sweeper (10 to 40 gallon shop-vac type) The company reporting on the shop-vac type of cleaners indicated that a portion of filter bag sewn to fit the external exhaust port on these vacuums gives added insurance against dust leaks should one of the internal filters fail. Minutes - Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee - cont. Page 2 3. Dust Collection Equipment - There was no new technology in dust collection reported on; however, two companies did discuss their experience with recent installations of negative pressure and pulse-type collectors. Two methods of automatic bagging of fly or fiber were dlsucssed. Photos of the installations were reviewed. 4. Wet Processing Techniques - All companies are using some form of wet processing. The area of most general use is in weaving. Considerable experimentation in wet twisting is being carried out. At least three companies indicated that they were working on wet carding techniques." 5. OSHA - Recent Inspections - Only one company reported any OSHA Inspections since the last meeting. General impression was that the inspectors were well trained and willing to help with interpretations of rules. They specifically stated that in situations of question you should ask them, or call the Regional Office if necessary, rather than take someone else's advice on Interpretation. . 6. Noise Control & Protective Equipment - In weaving some companies are experimenting with accoustical fiberglas panels to box in the ends of looms. Only moderate success to date. Major problem is that sound is bounced toward operator. Experiments with "Sound-Mat LF" and Plexiglas enclosure are promising for reducing braider noise. 7. Protective Clothing - One company is using disposable spin-bonded Oleifin garments. This material sheds asbestos well. v 8. Respirators - One new model was exhibited. Unit had replaceable cartridge housing and was approved by the U. S. Bureau of Mines. Respectfully submitted, K. A. Roberts, Chairman Minutes ASBESTOS ADVISORY COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 3, 1972 - The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston,S.C. The Asbestos Advisory Committee met with all member companies in attendance. From time to time, the Institute receives requests from various outside concerns for pictures, graphs, and charts such as bhose which appear in our Handbook of Asbestos Textiles. The problem in fulfilling these requests is obvious -- you always run the risk of not getting the photographic plates or"cuts", back! To alleviate this situation the Committee has asked the Secretary to procure and maintain a catalog of glossy prints which can be used to fill these requests from qualified sources. The Asbestos Advisory Committee spent a great deal of time last year in the preparation of our brochure on the recommended procedures for the safe handling of asbestos textiles. Up until November 1971 the number of requests for this brochure was nominal. However, after a press notice regarding its availability appeared in two trade journals, the requests have multiplied significantly with popies being sent to shipyards, various heavy industries, the U.S.Navy, colleges, insurance companies, and -- the Mount Sinai School of Medicine. At our meeting last October our Committee requested that Mr. Sheckler, Chairman of our Environmental Health Committee,contact Dr.Lewis Cralley in order to determine the status of his report regarding the HEW study of in-plant potential health hazards to asbestos textile workers when exposed to an environment which contained certain quantities of asbestos dust. In December Hr. Sheckler reported that:"Dr. Lewis Cralley appears to out of the picture as far as the asbestos health study or activities are concerned. In fact, he appears to be out of that total area of responsibility. Dr. Wagner and Dr. Johnson have taken over the work. Both are young and appear to share the Selikoff opinions and approach." Commenting on the thought that Dr. Cralley might serve ATI as a "consultanti'Hr. Sheckler said:-"In that Lewis Cralley is apparently not a part of the present team, his services as a consultant to ATI might be of little value and possibly ineffective." On December 7, 1971, the Department of Labor issued an Emergency Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust, the details of which were discussed in detail in our Legal Counsel's Report.earlier today. This n9w proposed standard will be further reviewed on the llj.th of March in Washington,D.C. The Asbestos Advisory Committee has asked Mr. Scowcroft to contact the AIA and determine Just what type of presentation they plan to make, and to offer what assistance we can in the preparation of this presentation. Further, we are requesting that Mr. Sheckler attend the March lij.th meeting as the ATI's repre sentative and make a report to the Secretary regarding the outcome for dissemination to ATI members.

Leclerc, Regional Sales Manager, ASBESTOS CORPORATION LIMITED, in reporting for the FIBRE PRODUCERS stated:- "Due to a very heavy demand for asbestos in 1970 quite a number of orders remained unshipped at the end of that year and resulted in a backlog of orders that were carried into 1971. Shipments in -the first three months of the year 1971 shoved an increase of more than BZ over the corresponding period of 1570. As at June 30, 1971, total shipments by the Q.A.M.A. members in Eastern Canada, were up HZ over 1970. Then came the slow months of July, August, September and October. While November and December shoved considerable Improvement over the previous four months, total shipments for the year were down 2Z as compared to 1970. ' The demand for Group 3 fibres was lover during the past year and shipments were down 13.5Z for the 12 months. This brings us into 1972 with fairly good Inventories of all grades including Group 3, with the exception of nrudes which are in very short supply. To sum it up, Insofar as the members of the ATI are concerned, all grades of Group 3 -pinning fibres are available and our friends in British Columbia are in the same position with the possible exception of Grade AAA. It is hoped that the expected improvement in business conditions in this country (USA) will materialize and the asbestos producers earnestly hope that the textile Industry will have a very good year In 1972." ' President Moody expressed the appreciation of ATI members to Mr. Leclerc for his comprehensive report. 6. Announcements:- President Moody announced that the new chairman of the Fiber Testing Committee was Mr. C. E. Stlefken (ASARCQ)* vho has served on that committee for several years as a representative of Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd. The appointment is effective at once. In anticipation that Chairman Sheckler of the Environmental Health Committee will tender his resignation in the near future, Mr. L. F. Dieringer, Industrial Hygienist, Uniroyal, Inc., was appointed chairman of that committee effective with the next meeting, June 7-8y 1972. . Mr. Norman D. Brown, who has represented Johns-Mahville Corporation on the Board of Governors for approximately one and one-half years has resigned due to a * change in his job responsibilities. Mr. Malcoa S.

The Williams-Steiger Occupational Safety and Health Act (29 U.S.C. 655) vaa signed _ Into law on December 29, 1970, and became effective April 28, 1971. The Occupational * Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) vas established to administer the Act under the . Department of Labor. a ' The expressed purpose of the legislation la "to assure so far as possible every working man and woman in the Nation safe and healthful working conditions and to preserve our human resources .... n To Implement this purpose, provision is made for the pro mulgation of mandatory occupational health and safety standards, as well as related research, information, education and training functions. Machinery is also provided to assist and encourage the states to develop satisfactory programs to promote occupational safety and health. The Secretary of Labor is authorized to set three types of standards: interim, permanent and emergency. Whenever the compliance division of OSHA concludes that an employer (defined as a person "engaged in a business affecting commerce who has 'mployees . . . .") has violated a standard, a citation is issued and the employer is tifled of any proposed penalty. If the employer objects to the citation or the proposed penalty, the Occupational Safety and Health Appeals Commission conducts a review and Issues an order, which is subject to judicial review by a U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals. OSHA, in cooperation with the U. S. Department of Bealthr Education and Welfare, is proceeding to develop and carry out occupational safety and health research. HEW has responsibilities under the Act, and these are being met by the newly formed National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). NIOSH is responsible for most occupational safety and health research, evaluation of hazards, toxicity determinations and manpower training and development. Also, it is undertaking special industry-wide _ studies of chronic or low-level exposure to hazardous substances as well as research * into psychological, motivational and behavioral factors Involved in occupational safety and health programs. . INCREASED EMPHASIS ON HEALTH OSHA's increased concern with occupational health problems is prompted by the fact that about 60Z of the complaints received by it have alleged health hazards. As part of its emphasis on health, OSHA Issued an emergency standard limiting the exposure of employees to asbestos dust, effective December 7, 1971. The standard vas adopted pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Act following studies by NIOSH and recommendations by the American Conference on Government Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). It has been determined by both NIOSH and ACGIH that the former asbestos standard constituted a grave danger to employees exposed to an 8-hour time weighted average oncentration and, thus, an emergency standard was required. The old standard for exposure to asbestos dust vas promulgated under the Valsh-Hcaley Public Contracts Act on May 20, 1969. It called for no more than 12 fibers per milliliter greater than five microns in length or two million particles per cubic foot of air. OSllA termed this 12-fiber level of exposure "a grave danger to employees exposed to this 8-hour time weighted average concentration." Remarks of Counsel - cont. 0 ) Page 2 HIOSH agreed with ACCIH that the new standard would provide a substantial base for i protection of workers in contact with asbestos dust. It limits the 8-hour time weighted average airborne concentration of asbestos dust to which employees are exposed to no more than five fibers per milliliter greater than five microns in length. Con centrations above five fibers per milliliter, but not to exceed ten fibers, are permissible up to a total of 15 minutes per hour up to five hours in an 8-hour day. An emergency temporary asbestos standard of two fibers per milliliter had been re quested by the AFL-CIO in a letter to the Department of Labor. The union cited as evidence of the need for a revised standard a study conducted by Dr. Irvin J. Selikoff and the staff of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine (in cooperation with the AFL-CLO and the Ad Boc Committee on the Asbestos Bazard of the AFL-CXO Industrial Union Department). The five-fiber emergency standard was criticized by Loria B. Kerr, M. D., chief of the Department of Occupational Health for the United Mine Workers of America. He stated that the standard "is appreciably higher than the non-hazardous level" called for in recent medical publications. Dr. Raymond Murphy of the department of physiology at Harvard, who has studied the effects of asbestos dust exposure on industrial workers, agrees with the union physician. Dr.Mbrphy concludes that even a level of two fibers per milliliter, or one-thousandth of a liter, may be hazardous to health. Dr. Murphy and his colleagues found that lung disease developed in workers who sanded asbestos floor tiles and were chronically exposed to about 1.3 fibers per milliliter. Also, in a letter to Assistant Labor Secretary George Guenther, Dr. Herr advised that the UHW is "equally concerned that this emergency standard is restricted in its '<pllcability to construction workers," to the exclusion of coal milers (who are covered the Coal Mine Health and Safety,Act). Recent studies indicate that some strip miners may be exposed to dangerous levels of asbestos dust. * On January 11, 1972, OSHA announced that, pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Act, a xule-making proceeding was being initiated to consider amending the regulations under the Act (29 CFR Part 1910). Interested persons are invited to submit data, views and arguments concerning the permanent adoption of the emergency standard and additional proposed rules on subsidiary Issues. The views must be submitted by February 11. In addition, oral data, views and arguments will be received by a hearing examiner on March 14. As proposed January 11, the temporary standard shall apply to "every employee . . . in every employment and place of employment... /[covered by jf 1910.12, 1910.13, 1910/14, 1910.15, or 1910.16 of this Subpart B (of 29 CFR Part 1910)7 , in lieu or any different standard on exposure to asbestos dust which would otherwise be applicable (by virtue cf any of those sections)." The promulgation of the temporary emergency standard is in line with the increasing concern of OSUA with occupational health problems. Assistant Secretary Guenther recently suggested that more trade associations establish industry-wide committees on job safety and health. Their functions should be to analyze standards in order to determine which are specifically relevant to the particular industry, to recommend that trade association members participate in standards-making activities, to suggest new standards and to advise members of the trade on technical matters. On January 4, 1972, OSHA announced a "Target Health Hazards" program whose purpose is to reduce the health hazards posed by exposure to five toxic substances" -- asbestos, cotton dust, silica, lead and carbon monoxide. Mr. Guenther described it as the health counterpart to the safety-oriented Target Industries Program. iRemarks of Counsel - cont. Page 3 In announcing the Target Health Hazards program, Mr. Guenther noted that asbestos n -produce asbestosis and asbestos fibers in the lungs may lead to cancer. Urgent .cion to curtail this health hazatd is indicated by the fact that in the fields of insulation, manufacturing of products using asbestos, shipbuilding, construction and other industries, there are more than 200,000 employees who face risks from asbestos exposure. OSRA conducted an "Executive-briefing Special Session" on the Target Health Hazards program in Washington on January 26, which Mr. Sheckler of Johns-Manville attended. The briefing was aimed at informing employers of the details of the program. Yesterday, February 2, a general orientation meeting was scheduled for management, labor, government and professionals. On the state level, the Illinois Pollution Control Board, in January 1972, passed controls on asbestos which prohibit the manufacturing or the processing of asbestos- containing products without a permit after June 30, 1972. Such material applied in construction or repair must be coated with a sealant and Installed to safeguard against emissions. Emission from plants manufacturing such products will be limited to two fibers per cubic centimeter of air. Emission regulation is also applied to demolition projects, and all transported asbestos material must be enclosed. A ban was placed on the spraying of such materials or fibers as well as on visible emissions of nonasbestos fibers in open areas during construction, alteration and repair of structures as of March 31, 1972. The City of Chicago passed a similar, but less stringent, ban. . CONCLUSION ` Since the Federal Act became effective, the emphasis by OSHA has shifted in at least jo significant ways. During the early stages, the 60-called "general duty clause" was xhe basis for many compliance actions. This clause is Section 5(a)(1) of the Act. It states" "Each employer shall furnish to each of his employees employment and a place of employment which are free from recognized hazards . that are causing or are likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees." - As evidenced by OSHA's enforcement actions, the general duty clause was not mere window dressing. However, as standards for safety and health have been promulgated and adopted by OSHA, use of the general duty clause has given way to the enforcement of these .specific standards themselves. The second major shift in emphasis has been from the initial accent on safety, as evidenced by the Target Industries Program, to a concentration on occupational health hazards. This has resulted from statistics compiled by OSHA which show that most com plaints concern health rather than safety hazards. But it would be erroneous to think that either the general duty clause of OSHA's concern with safety conditions can be ignored with Impunity by employers. Instead, the conclusion must be that now OSHA is equally concerned with health hazards as with safety problems and is moving forward to develop, adopt and continually improve standards for occupational health and safety, all in coordination with N105H.

Hawkins------William Maaskant' D.T. Austin--------J.W. Echerd--------- --Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. --American Asbestos Textile Corp --Uniroyal, Inc. --H.K. Porter Company, Inc. The ASTM Asbestos Textile Standards approved in 1967 are up for revision this year. These include D1571, D315 and D1918. Most of the Technical Coasnittee's time was used in work on ASTM Specification D1571 and review of proposed Revision *C" of MIL-C-822U9. The following recommendations were made: . . D1571, Woven Asbestos Cloth ' 1. That we investigate increasing the relative humidity require ment from 50 to 65 to agree with Specification B1776 for Standard Conditions. ' 2. That we issue a statement on Precision and Accuracy similar to that we used in Standard D628. MH-C-822L9; Cloth, Coated, Asbestos, Herringbone Twill, Aluminized. Proposed Rev. "C". ' ' 1. That the committee chairman write Mr. C.J. Zemme requesting the reference to cotton be eliminated in Item'1,1 and. that "cotton fibers" be replaced by "nontoxic organic fibers" in Item 3.2.1. MIL-I-2li2hL, Insulation Materials, Thermal, with Special Corrosion and Chloride Requirements - the committee recommends that producers of material sold against MIL-I-2h2Lili specify the material conforms to specification yhen shipped. Contamination in route may alter the chemical composition before it reaches its destination. It was reported that the following items were approved by subcommittee Ah of ASTM committee D-13. 1. Proposed revision of "Magnetic Rating of Asbestos Fibers and Textile Products" dated December 3, 1971 (D1118). 2. Proposed revision Section lh on Precision and Accuracy "Asbestos Content of Asbestos Textile Materials". (D1918). 3. Deletion of Standard "Heat Aging of Asbestos Textiles". (D1573). The Spring Meeting of Committee D-13, Subcommittee A-U will be held at the Belmont Plaza Hotel, New York, N.Y. on March 22, 1972. Our Task Group on Revision of Standards will meet at 9:30 A.M. The General Meeting is scheduled, for 1:30 P.M. Chairman Minutes ' ~) ASBESTOS ADVISORY COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute Pebruary 3, 1972 - The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston^. C. The Asbestos Advisory Committee met with all member companies in attendance. ' Prom time to time, the Institute receives requests from various '.outside concerns for pictures, graphs, and charts such as those which appear in our Handbook of Asbestos Textiles. The problem in fulfilling these requests is obvious -- you always run the risk of not getting the photographic plates or"cuts", backj To ^alleviate this situation the Committee has asked the Secretary 'to procure and maintain a catalog of glossy prints which can be used to fill these requests from qualified sources. - The Asbestos Advisory Committee spent a great deal.of time last year in the preparation of our brochure on the recommended procedures for the safe handling of asbestos textiles. Up until November 1971 the number of requests for this brochure was nominal. However, after a press notice regarding its availability appeared in two trade journals, the requests have multiplied significantly with copies being sent to shipyards, various heavy industries, the U.S.Navy, colleges, insurance companies, and -- the Mount Sinai School of Medicine At our meeting last October our Committee requested that Mr. Sheckler, Chairman of our Environmental Health Committee,contact Dr.Lewis Cralley in order to determine the status of his report regarding the HEW study of in-plant potential health hazards to asbestos textile workers when exposed to an environment which contained certain quantities of asbestos dust. In December Hr. Sheckler reported that:"Dr. Lewis Cralley appears to out of the picture as far as the asbestos health study or activities are concerned. In fact, he appears to be out of that total area of responsibility. Dr. Wagner and Dr. Johnson have taken over the work. Both are young and appear to share the Selikoff opinions and approach.11 Commenting on the thought that Dr. Cralley might serve ATI as a "consultant"TM?, Sheckler said:-"In that Lewis Cralley is apparently not a part of the prosent team, his services as a consultant to ATI might be of little value and possibly ineffective." On Docenber 7, 1971, the Department of Labor issued an Emergency Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust, the details of which were discussod in detail in our Legal Counsel's Report.earlier today. This new proposod standard will be further reviewed on the lltth of March in Washington,D.C. The Asbestos Advisory Committee has asked Mr. Scowcroft to contact the AlA and determine Just what type of presentation they plan to make, and to offer what assistance we can in the preparation of this presentation. Further, wo are requesting that Mr. Sheckler attend the March li4.th meeting as the ATI's repre sentative and make a report to the Secretary regarding the outcome for dissemination to ATI momoers.

Mr. Sunbury, Secretary of A.T.I., opened the meeting, and announced that Mr. Steifken had been appointed as the new chairman of the Fiber Testing Committee at the meeting of the Board of Governors on the previous day. He succeeds Mr. D. E. Childers vho has served as chairman during 1970 and 1971. Mr. Stiefken,is an employee of the American Smelting 6 Refining Company (ASARCO) and has represented their subsidiary. Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd., on this committee for several years. Taking over as Chairman Mr. Stiefken called attention to the fact that only one Regular Member of A.T.I. had a representative serving on the Fiber Testing Conmlttee (Mr. Childers) at the present time and that this created an imbalance which should be corrected promptly. The Secretary agreed to bring this matter to the .attention of the Board of Governors. * The meeting was devoted exclusively to discussion of the setting up of a 3rd Edition of the manual "Testing Procedures for Chrysotlle Asbestos Fibre". Included in the discussion were revisions of tests adopted recently by the Q.A.M.A. . The new edition of the manual, from present indications, will probably be con siderably larger. The present thought is to have it in loose-leaf form. While no cost estimates have yet been obtained there is every reason to believe that the new edition will cost substantially more than the 1966 edition, which was $1.89 per copy. The function of the A.T.I. Fiber Testing Committee in this endeavor will be to take the lead in assembling the newer tests, and revisions of older tests, into a comprehensive manual. This committee will have Che final approval and will therefore have to review every test procedure. We anticipate a task force meeting of the committee with representatives of the QAMA Technical Committee will be advisable to expedite the work. This should be held in the near future at a mutually convenient place - possibly Sherbrooke or Montreal. Respectfully submitted. C. E. Stiefken, Chairman uJ MINUTES Ar Hygiene & Hfg.

Waste Disposal Procedures - The most generally practical method of disposing of non-usable asbestos waste is to bag it, using plastic bags, and tie. The use of baling equipment was discussed, but same is felt to be unacceptable due to the fact that the final compressed unit is not wrapped thus leaving the asbestos fibers exposed. - 2. Tacuum Cleaninr, Procedures, and Equipment used to Comply with the Ban on Dry Sweeping. - All member companies reported that they were working on programs to eliminate dry sweeping. Two companies reported that they have discussed the use of sweeping compounds and items such as "Endust" with the OSHA inspector. In both cases the Inspectors indicated that using these sweeping aids would be acceptable. - There was considerable discussion of the types of vacuum equipment in use. Reference was made to the following: Abington (central system) Atlas (55 gallon drum type) Batson Litter Citter ' Billy Goat Clark(wet A dry) Huffman Nilfish Tennent Valkie-sveeper (10 to <0 gallon shop-vac type) The company reporting on the shop-vac type of cleaners indicated that a portion of filter bag sewn to fit the external exhaust port on these vacuums gives added insurance against dust leaks should one of the internal filters fail. O Minutes - Air Hygiene & Hfg. Committee - eont Page 2 3. Dust Collection Equipment - There was no new technology in dust collection reported on; however, two companies did discuss their experience with recent Installations of negative pressure and pulse-type collectors. Two methods of automatic bagging of fly or fiber were disucssed. Photos of the installations were reviewed. 4. Wet Processing Techniques - All companies are using some form of wet processing. The area of most general use is in weaving. Considerable experimentation in wet twisting is being carried out. At least three companies Indicated that they were working on wet carding techniques.' 5. OSHA - Recent Inspections - Only one company reported any OSHA inspections since the last meeting. General Impression was that the Inspectors were well trained and willing to help with interpretations of rules. They specifically stated that in situations of question you should ask them, or call the Regional Office if necessary, rather than take someone else's advice on interpretation. . . Boise Control & Protective Equipment - In weaving some companies are experimenting with accoustical fiberglas panels to box in che ends of looms. Only moderate success to date. Major problem is that sound is bounced toward operator. Experiments with "Sound-Mat LF" and Plexiglas enclosure are promising for reducing braider noise. 7. Protective Clothing - One company is using disposable spin-bonded Oleifin garments. This material sheds asbestos well. B. Respirators - One new model was exhibited. Unit had replaceable cartridge housing and was approved by the U. S. Bureau of Mines. Respectfully submitted. K. A.

Mr. President: Mr. Secretary: Gentlemen: The Asbestos Advisory Committee met this morning with all member companies in attendance. Our discussion this morning centered on--as I am sure most of the other committee discussions did--the newly published Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust. We touched on the various interpretations and the possible impact of the Standard, and I want to thank Wendell Alcorn for his succinct review of the Standard's content. In addition, the proposed banning rule of the Food and Drug Admin istration was also discussed. This rule, as presently constituted, would prohibit or ban the shipment of asbestos-containing consumer garments from interstate commerce, except those which were considered to be bona fide protection devices. Although professing to be on the side of reason, the FDA claims to be under pressure to issue such a ruling which is predicated on the infamous "asbestos coat affair. " Advance copies of the second draft of the proposed banning rule will be mailed to the ATI for review. In the meantime, however, the Chairman of the Asbestos Advisory Committee, representing the ATI, will meet with the appropriate members of the FDA and attempt to present a truer picture of the issue at hand. Since there was no further business to come before the committee, the meeting was adjourned at 10:45 A. M. Respectfully submitted, Edward A. Morris Chairman TECHNICAL COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute - June 8, 1972 - Key Bridge Marriott, Wash.,D, In Attendance: J. W. Hawkins--------------------- Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.

ASTM D 1573 is being removed from the Book of Standards. Mr. A. M. Blank, Dept, of Army, Belvoir, Va., has advised some customers that MIL-C-10316B is up for revision. ATI or member companies have not been advised. Mr. Echerd will ask for a time extention so textile industry can recommend changes prior to the issuance of the new specification. MIL-C-82278 and MIL-C-82249 - Herringbone Cloth Mr. Zemme of Natick has requested samples of 1.2 lb. herringbone cloth for their evaluation. These samples will have a rayon carrier fiber. If tests are satisfactory, rayon will be included in the new specifications. R/M will submit samples. ASTM D 1118 - Magnetic Rating Edited copies of D 1118 from ASTM and Dr. Scroggie were reviewed. The Technical Committee was in agreement and minor changes will be passed to Mr. Nicodemus by Mr. Maaskant. The section on sampling was rewritten to clarify the procedure. It was also requested that D 2590 remain as a reference in D 1118. ASTM D 1918 - Asbestos Content Edited copies of D 1918 from ASTM and Dr. Scroggie were reviewed.

This is the Federal law which is administered by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Since the February meeting, there have occurred several developments with respect to OSHA which directly affect asbestos producers and users. These developments are the subject of my remarks today. OSHA DEVELOPMENTS _____ On January 12i197V_0SIA invited oossaents from - ,. . . */(-* interested persons on its proppaed **___ -- .- . "Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust". Twelve days later, on January 24th, the Advisory Committee on Asbestos Dust was established to review this standard and make recommenda tions regarding it. The first meeting of the Committee was held February 3 (while we were in Charleston), at which Dr. Marcus M. Key presented the NIOSH "Criteria Document: Recommendations for an Occupational Exposure Standard for Asbestos". The final fruits of the Committee's work were Remark* of Counsel, continued:- Pago -& scheduled to be seen In the form of a permanent standard for asbestos dust exposure to be promulgated by June 7th. . That was yesterday, and has been the main topic of many conversations at this meeting. Thus, the development of a permanent asbestos standard is now past history and atten tion must be turned to present and future compliance. It can certainly be expected that enforcement of the new permanent asbestos standard will be as vigorous as the limitations of OSHA personnel and facilities will allow. Great pressure will be applied in favor of strict enforcement by labor unions, as surely as such groups have lobbied in the past for a low standard of exposure to asbestos dust. In mid-March of this year, the Industrial Union Department of the AFL-CIO called exposure to asbestos dust "the most devastating environmental disaster yet perpetrated by any industrial nation" and announced that it planned to use as an example of the disastrous proportions of the asbestos health hazard the Johns-Manvllle Corporation plant in Manville, New Jersey. The reason the IUD focused on the Johns-Manville plant, according to a press statement, was "only because the facts are best documented in Manville and because these facts illustrate the need for stringent -2- Remarks of Counsel, continued; Page -3 control." (See Occupational Safety & Health Reporter. March 16, 1972, at page 967.) In April, the month following the IUD announce ment, there appeared a two-part article in the press directed at the alleged health hazards to which the workers in Manville have been exposed. The first part of the article bore the headline, "A Jersey Town is Dying -- Fast"; the second part opened with the heading, "A Man With 8 Months to Live". The article cited several cases of asbestos-related ailments and statements by Dr. Maxwell Borow and Dr. Irving Selikoff. A short time later, an inspection was completed at the Manville, New Jersey plant by industrial hygienists of OSHA. On June 1, the report of that inspection, which resulted in the citation of five violations, was summarized In the press. OSHA termed one of the violations at the Manville plant "serious" and the other four."minor". It said that the serious violation was found in the textiles building, where asbestos is made into yarn for weaving and carding. The four minor violations resulted from employees working without the required protective masks. The investigation and citation of the alleged violations at the Manville plant should be considered typical of future OSHA activities in the enforcement of the asbestos -3- Renarks of Counsel, continued Page -k standard. Following an Investigation and citation of violations, OSHA is required to send a notice of proposed penalties to the company, which then has 15 working days within which to notify the Secretary of Labor that it in-Ji; tends to contest either the citation of the violation or 1 the proposed assessment of penalty. If the employer does not file such a notice, the citation and the assessment of penalty is deemed a final order of the OSHA Commission, and such a final order is not subject to review by any court or agency. It should also be noted that employees or their representatives may file a notice with the Secretary claiming that the period of time fixed for the abatement of the violation is unreasonable; in such case, a hearing is held by the Commission. Where the employer appeals from a notice of viola tion or proposed assessment of penalty, he is entitled to a hearing and review by the Commission or hearing examiners. This hearing is a fact-finding proceeding in which the Secretary's citation or proposed penalty may be affirmed, modified or vacated. The Commission's order issued as a result of such hearing becomes final within thirty (30) days. However, if an employer can show that the abatement require ments of a Commission order have not been fulfilled because of factors beyond his control, the Secretary may, after a hearing, either affirm or modify the abatement requirements. Remarks of Counsel,continued Page -5- Where a notice of proposed penalty is .uncontest-<1 or where an employer seeks no review of a final order of the Commission, automatic court enforcement is provided. If the employer falls to comply with this court order, he is subject to punishment for contempt. However, a final order of the Commission may be reviewed, at the option of the person adversely affected or aggrieved by the order, and the review is by a United States circuit court of appeals. To obtain such review, a written petition must be filed in the court within sixty (60) days following the Issuance of the order. This court review is governed by the rule of substantial evidence, that is, the findings of fact by the Commission are conclusive before the court if supported by substantial evidence. These court proceedings may result in an enforcement order, the non compliance with which would subject the employer to contempt proceedings. . CONCLUSION . The promulgation of a permanent asbestos exposure standard has, of course, appeared Inevitable for some time. The big issue over the past few months has been the level of exposure which would be written into the standard. That issue has now been settled, subject to revisions which may -5- Remarks of Counsel, continued Page -6- occur In the future. Companies in the asbestos industry, now face the task of meeting the new standard; and toward this end, OSHA can be expected to conduct Inspections and issue citations wherever warranted. The overall process of developing an asbeBtos exposure standard has Involved the balancing of economics against health considerations. While it is still arguable that many of the medical studies submitted in favor of a very low exposure level are distorted and misleading, the balance between economics and health considerations has now been struck. The cost of implementing the standard will be high; and in recognition of the difficulty of put ting into effect OSHA standards, the law provides that under certain specified conditions, an employer may obtain either a temporary or permanent variance from the standard. On the other hand, it may be expected that labor will vigorously oppose all applications for variances which cannot be justified in every respect. The variance rule should be invoked by employers only where a real need and justification can be found. Wendell B. Alcorn, Atty. .

Goldberg Hearing Examiner U. S. Department of Labor Office of the Under Secretary Washington, D. C. 20210 Re: Hearing on Proposed Standard For Exposure To Asbestos Dust Beginning on March 14, 1972 Dear Mr. Goldberg: My name is Alex Kuzmuk. I am a member of the Board of Governors of the Asbestos Textile Institute. I am here today to officially represent and state the position of the Asbestos Textile Institute and its member companies. We are in opposition to the proposed asbestos dust standards as published in the FEDERAL REGISTER, January 12, 1972. We are also opposed to recommendations proposed in the NIOSH criteria package, and by the Asbestos Advisory Committee. / The asbestos textile industry, which this association represents, includes over 4000 job opportunities in manufacturing, plus approximately 35,000 job opportunities in related product fabri cation and sales. The gross business volume for manufacturing alone is over 8o_ million per year. The gross volume for related fabrication and sales is, therefore, many times this amount. Although this is not the largest segment of the asbestos industry, it is a very important one. Our product lines include the manu- Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13, 1972 Page 2 facture of safety garments, insulations, clutch facings, brake linings, paper dryer felts, mechanical packings and gaskets, laminated plastics, and many other commodities essential to today's technological progress. In many instances, there are no known substitutes for asbestos textile materials. Subsequent to the enactment of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the threshold limit value for asbestos dust was reduced from 5 million particles per cubic foot of air to 12 fibres per milliliter, 5 microns or greater in length. We, in the asbestos textile industry, made every possible effort to meet the 12 fibre threshold limit value by re-engineering dust hoods and dust collection equipment on cards, spinners, looms, and many other types of equipment. In addition, many of us initiated wet weaving and made extensive additional changes in processes and materials. When the further reduction to the ~ threshold limit value for asbestos dust was published on December 7, 1971, we began all over again to study plans for revising equipment, processes, and materials, for which we had just spent thousands of dollars to install to meet the 12 fibre level. Many of us have not, and cannot, reduce our dust levels to the emergency and proposed 5 fibre threshold limit value. If engineering to a 5 fibre level were feasible on the complex types of machinery and equipment used in the textile industry, the cost of implementation would make it extremely doubtful that this industry could survive economically. We are presently .> being pressed to the wall by our competitors. The cost of a Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13, 1972 Page 3 program to meet the proposed asbestos dust standards could be the determining factor for removing American-made asbestos textiles from the market place. The competition to which I refer will not be required to make extensive capital investments to change processes, provide ^protemtdipsim1nthing, provide medical examinations, and monitor ing. Tfiis competition is primarily from foreign imports, i, therefore, take this opportunity to ask this Federal agency whether it will take the responsibility of recommending equitable tariffs to prevent this economic disaster, if the proposed Asbestos Oust Standards become effective. Beyond the proposed asbestos dust standards published in the January 12, 1972 FEDERAL REGISTER, there are recommendations by the National institute of Occupational Safety and Health, and the Asbestos Advisory Committee. These recommend further reduc tion of the asbestos dust threshold limit.value to 2 fibres per milliliter, plus many additional requirements qoacerning . respirator equipment, protective clothing, monitoring, and others. With the problems we are encountering in attempting to reach the present Emergency Asbestos Standard, it is unrealistic to even consider the feasibility of a 2 fibre standard. I would like to point out that Mr. Clifford L. Sheckler, Chairman of the Asbestos Textile institute Environmental Health Committee, took the initiative in 1964 to request Or. Lewis Cralley of the Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13, 1972 P4 United State8 Public Health Service to conduct an epidemiological atudy of our aabeatoa textile induatry. We recognized then that a potential health problem exiated and, therefore, we wanted expert advice and aaaiatance to help ua aolve it. We have neither received the advice nor the aaai8tance which we had hoped for. We opened our planta to the United Statea Public Health Service peraonnel for environmental 8tudiea, review of our recorda, and phyaical examinations of our people. Our member companies urged employee participation in the study, and a substantial represent ative group of workers were involved. We continually requested the United States Public Health Service to increase their efforts and provide interim progress reports. The Public Health Service Asbestos Study of which I speak haa not been completed. A recent report, which is a primary factor in the recommendations by NIOSH and the Advisory Committee, was based on this incomplete study. The information provided in the report was based on opinion and speculation, rather than fact. Had the United States Public Health Service Asbestos Epidemiological Study been completed as continually requested by the Asbestos Textile Institute, we might now be in a position of having factual information as to what the safe threshold limit for asbestos dust really should be. One factor is pertinent to this point. The asbestos related Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13 1972 Page 5 disease involvement in the asbestos textile industry is being related to asbestos dust exposure levels as they presently exist rather than at the time the disease was incurred 25-30 years ago. Such a comparison is invalid. All of the past monitoring for asbestos dust in American textile plants has been done using the impinger method for sampling. Today's proposed standards are based on a fibre level using the Milapore filter method for sampling. There is no accurate correlation of impinger counts versus Milapore filter counts established to date. There has been some work done by the United States Public Health Service, but the results are incomplete. This is but one area that dem onstrates the need for further health research studies and eval uations before unnecessarily creating an unrealistic standard that can be the demise .of this industry and its related job opportunities. We respectfully urge the Secretary of Labor to: (1) Reconsider the establishment of asbestos standards; (2) reinstate the thres hold limit value for asbestos dust at 12 fibres per milliliter. 5 microns or greater in length for an interim period pending a comprehensive epidemiological study of the entire asbestos in dustry in the United States. I would like to point out that many comparisons have been made between the British and United States asbestos textile industry concerning health problems. The vast differences in materials, equipment and processes make such comparisons unrealistic. (3) Provide for representation of the Asbestos Textile Institute on future advisory and study Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Bearing March 13, 1972 Page 6 committees. I would also like to point out that while many detailed require ments are included in the proposed standard, it is absolutely mute on the very important medically substantiated problem of cigarette smoking as associated with closure to asbestos fibre We, of the Asbestos Textile Industry, have the greatest desire to prevent injury to our employees. We believe this can be accomplished without destroying the asbestos textile industry. Thank you for the privilege of appearing at this hearing today. Very truly yours.

Our discussion this morning centered on--as I am sure most of the other committee discussions did--the newly published Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust. We touched on the various interpretations and the possible impact of the Standard, and I want to thank Wendell Alcorn for his succinct review of the Standard's content. In addition, the proposed banning rule of the Food and Drug Admin istration was also discussed. This rule, as presently constituted, would prohibit or ban the shipment of asbestos-containing consumer garments from interstate commerce, except those which were considered to be bona fide protection device^. Although professing to be on the side of reason, the FDA claims to be under pressure to issue such a ruling which is predicated on the infamous "asbe. stos coat affair.

This is the Federal law which is administered by the Occupational Safety and Health . Administration (OSHA). Since the February meeting, there have occurred several developments with respect to OSHA which directly affect asbestos producers and users. These developments are the subject of my remarks today._____________ OSHA DEVELOPMENTS ' ___ On January 12, 1972,r.0SSi invited oosments from interested persons on its propesed ___ "Standard for Exposure to Asbestos Dust". Twelve days later, on January 24th, the Advisory Committee on Asbestos Dust was established to review this standard and make recommenda tions regarding it. The first meeting of the Committee was held February 3 (while we were in Charleston), at which Dr. Marcus M. Key presented the NIOSH "Criteria Document: Recommendations for an Occupational Exposure Standard for Asbestos". The final fruits of the Committee's work were -.......................... O - -- Remarks of Counsel, continued:- ' J' paga scheduled to be seen In the form of a permanent standard for asbestos dust exposure to be promulgated by June 7th That, was yesterday, and has been the main topic of many conversations at this meeting. Thus, the development of a permanent asbestos standard Is now past history and atten tion must be turned to present and future compliance. . It can certainly be expected that enforcement of the new permanent asbestos standard will be as vigorous as the limitations of OSHA personnel and facilities will allow. Great pressure will be applied in favor of strict enforcement by labor unions, as surely as such groups have lobbied in the past for a low standard of exposure to asbestos dust. ** In mid-March of this year, the Industrial Union Department of the AFL-CIO called exposure to asbestos dust "the most devastating environmental disaster yet perpetrated by any industrial nation" and announced that it planned to use as an example of the disastrous proportions of the asbestos health hazard the Johns-Manvilie Corporation plant in Manvllle, New Jersey. The reason the IUD focused on the Johns-Manvllle plant, according to a press statement, was "only because the facts are best documented in Manvllle and because these facts illustrate the need for stringent 2- Remarks of Counsel, continued;- Page -3- controi." (See Occupational Safety & Health Reporter. March 16, 1972, at page 967.) In April, the month following the IUD announce- ment, there appeared a two-part article in the press directed at the alleged health hazards to which the workers in Manville have been exposed. The first part of the article bore the headline, "A Jersey Town is Dying -- Fast"; the second part opened with the heading, "A Man With 8 Months to Live". The article cited several cases of asbestos-related ailments and statements by Dr. Maxwell Borow and Dr. Irving Selikoff. A short time later, an inspection was completed at the Manville, New Jersey plant by industrial hygienists of OSKA. On June 1, the report of that inspection, which resulted in the citation of five violations, was summarized in the press. __ OSHA termed one of the violations at the Manville plant "serious" and the other four "minor". It said that . the serious violation was found In the textiles building, where asbestos is made into yarn for weaving and carding. The four minor violations resulted from employees working without the required protective masks. The investigation and citation of the alleged violations at the Manville plant should be considered typical of future OSHA activities in the enforcement of the asbestos -3- > Heaarks of Coun-el, continued:u - Page -kJ standard. Following an investigation and citation of violations, OSHA is required to send a notice of proposed penalties to the company, which then has 15 working days within which to notify the Secretary of Labor that it in--1 . tends to contest either the citation of the violation or !'x the proposed assessment of penalty. If the employer does not file such a notice, the citation and the assessment of penalty is deemed a final order of the OSKA Commission, and such a final order is not subject to review by any court or agency. It should also be noted that employees or their representatives may file a notice with the Secretary claiming that the period of time fixed for the abatement of the violation is unreasonable; in such case, a hearing is held by the Commission. '. Where the employer appeals from a notice of viola tion or proposed assessment of penalty, he is entitled to a hearing and review by the Commission or hearing examiners. This hearing is a fact-finding proceeding in which the Secretary's citation or proposed penalty may be affirme( d, modified or vacated. The Commission's order issued as a result of such hearing becomes final within thirty (30) days. However, if an employer can show that the abatement require ments of a Commission order have not been fulfilled because of factors beyond his control, the Secretary may, after a hearing, either affirm or modify the abatement requirements. ^ Remarks of Counsel,continued:- U` ... Page -5- ) Where a notice of proposed penalty is.uncontest'4 or where an employer seeks no review of a final order of the Commission, automatic court enforcement is provided. If the employer fails to comply with this court order, he Is subject to punishment for contempt. However, a final order of the Commission may be reviewed, at the option of the person adversely affected or aggrieved by the order, and the review is by a United States circuit court of appeals. To obtain such review, a written petition must be filed in the court within sixty (60) days following the issuance of the order. This court review is governed by the rule of substantial evidence, that is, the findings of fact by the Commission are conclusive before the court if supported by substantial evidence. These court proceedings may result in an enforcement order, the non compliance with which would subject the employer to contempt proceedings. .. ' CONCLUSION .. The promulgation of a permanent asbestos exposure standard has, of course, appeared inevitable for some time. The big issue over the past few months has been the level of exposure which would be written into the standard. That issue has now been settled, subject to revisions which may -5- Remarks of Coup 'jl, continued:- ^ Page -6- occur in the future. Companies in the asbestos industry, now face the task of meeting the new standard; and toward this end, OSHA can be expected to conduct inspections and issue citations wherever warranted. The overall process of developing an asbestos exposure standard has involved the balancing of economics against health considerations. While it is still arguable that many of the medical studies submitted in favor of a very low exposure level are distorted and misleading, the balance between economics and health considerations has now been struck. The cost of implementing the standard will be high; and in recognition of the difficulty of put ting into effect OSHA standards, the law provides that under certain specified conditions, an employer may obtain either a temporary or permanent variance from the standard. On the other hand, it may be expected that labor will vigorously oppose all applications for variances which cannot be Justified in every respect. The variance rule should be invoked by employers only where a real need and Justification can be found. Wendell B. Alcorn, Atty.

Goldberg Hearing Examiner U. S. Department of Labor Office of the Under Secretary Washington, D. C. 20210 Re: Hearing on Proposed Standard For Exposure To Asbestos Dust Beginning on March 14, 1972 Dear Mr. Goldberg: My name is Alex Kuzmuk. I am a member of the Board of Governors of the Asbestos Textile Institute. I am here today to officially represent and state the position of the Asbestos Textile Institute and its member companies. We are in opposition to the proposed asbestos dust standards as published in the FEDERAL REGISTER, January 12, 1972. We are also opposed to recommendations proposed in the NIOSH criteria package, and by the Asbestos Advisory Committee. / The asbestos textile industry, which this association represents, includes over 4000 job opportunities in manufacturing, plus approximately 35,000 job opportunities in related product fabri cation and sales. The gross business volume for manufacturing alone is over million per year. The gross volume for related fabrication and sales is, therefore, many times this amount. Although this is not the largest segment of the asbestos industry, it is a very important one. Our product lines include the manu- .Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13, 1972 Sage 2 ' facture of safety garments, insulations, clutch facings, brake linings, paper dryer felts, mechanical packings and gaskets, laminated plastics, and many other commodities essential to today's technological progress. In many instances, there are no known substitutes for asbestos textile materials. Subsequent to the enactment of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the threshold limit value for asbestos dust was reduced from 5 million particles per cubic foot of air to 12 fibres per milliliter, 5 microns or greater in length. We, in the asbestos textile industry, made every possible effort to meet the 12 fibre threshold limit value by re-engineering dust hoods and dust collection equipment on cards, spinners, looms, and many other types of equipment. In ^addition, many of us initiated wet weaving and made extensive additional changes in processes and materials. When the further reduction to the threshold limit value for asbestos dust was published on December 7, 1971, we began all over again to study plans for revising equipment, processes, and materials, for which we had just spent thousands of dollars to install to meet the 12 fibre level. -Many of us have not, and cannot, reduce our dust levels to the emergency and proposed 5 fibre threshold limit value. If engineering to a 5 fibre level were feasible on the complex types of machinery and equipment used in the textile industry, the cost of implementation would make it extremely doubtful that this industry could survive economically. We are presently being pressed to the wall by our competitors. The cost of a .. .. fI Mr. Arthur M. Golooerg Asbestos Hearing March 13# 1972 Page 3 J . program to meet the proposed asbestos dust standards could be the determining factor for removing American-made asbestos textiles from the market place. The competition to whicdi Z refer will not be required to make extensive capital investments to change processes# provide ^`Srt^u^protectiYe^clothing# provide medical examinations #_ and monitor . ing.' This competition is primarily from foreign imports. I, therefore# take this opportunity to ask this Federal agency whether it will take the responsibility of recommending equitable tariffs to prevent this economic disaster# if the proposed Asb_ estos Oust Standards ^ become effective. % Beyond the proposed asbestos dust standards published in the January 12# 1972 FEDERAL REGISTER# there are recommendations by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, and the Asbestos Advisory Committee. These recommend further reduc- . tion of t*h*. e asbestos dust threshold limit value , to 2 fibres ' per milliliter# plus many additional requirements concerning . Tespirator equipment# protective clothing# monitoring# and others. . With the problems we are encountering in attempting to reach the present Emergency Asbestos Standard# it is unrealistic to even consider the feasibility of a 2 fibre standard. I would like to point out that Mr. Clifford L. Sheekler, Chairman of the Asbestos Textile Institute Environmental Health Committee, took the initiative in 1964 to request Dr. Lewis Cralley of the ," U Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Bearing March 13, 1972 Page 4 : .) . ' United States Public Health Service to conduct an epidemiological study of our asbestos textile industry. We recognized then that a potential health problem existed and, therefore, we wanted expert advice and assistance to help us solve it'. We have neither received `the advice nor the assistance which we had hoped for. We opened our plants to the United States Public Health Service personnel for environmental studies, review of our records, and physical examinations of our people. Our member companies urged employee participation in the study, and a substantial represent ative group of workers were involved. We continually requested the United States Public Health Service to increase their efforts and provide interim progress reports. The Public Health Service Asbestos Study of which I speak has not been completed. A recent report, which is a primary factor in the recommendations by NIOSH and the Advisory Committee, was based on this incomplete study. The information provided in the report was based on opinion and speculation, rather than fact. Had the United States Public Health Service Asbestos Epidemiological Study been completed as continually requested by the Asbestos Textile Institute, we might now be in a position of having factual information as to what the safe threshold limit for asbestos dust really should be. One factor is pertinent to this point. The asbestos related O Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13# 1972 Page S J disease involvement in the asbestos textile industry is being related to asbestos dust exposure levels as they presently exist rather than at the time the disease was incurred 25-30 years ago. Such a comparison is invalid. All of the past monitoring for asbestos dust in American textile plants has been done using the impinger method for sampling. Today's proposed . standards are based on a fibre level using the Milapore filter method for sampling. There is no accurate correlation of impinger counts versus Milapore filter counts established to date. There has been some work done by the United States Public Health Service# but the results are incomplete. This is but one area that dem onstrates the need for further health research studies and eval uations before unnecessarily creating an unrealistic standard that can be the demise of this industry and its related job opportunities. We respectfully urge the Secretary of Labor to: (1) Reconsider the establishment of asbestos standards; (2) reinstate the thres hold limit value for asbestos dust at 12 fibres per milliliter# 5 microns or greater in length for an interim period pending a comprehensive epidemiological study of the entire asbestos in dustry in the United States. 1 would like to point out that * many comparisons have been made between the British and United States asbestos textile industry concerning health problems. The vast differences in materials, equipment and processes make such comparisons unrealistic. (3) Provide for representation of the Asbestos Textile Institute on future advisory and study 0 Mr. Arthur M. Goldberg Asbestos Hearing March 13, 1972 Page 6 ;` - ) committees. I would also like to point.out that while many detailed require ments are included in the proposed standard, it is absolutely mute on the very important medically substantiated problem of cigarette smoking as associated with exposure to asbestos fibre We, of the Asbestos Textile Industry, haye the greatest desire to prevent injury to our employees. We believe this can be accomplished without destroying the asbestos textile industry. Thank you for the privilege of appearing at this hearing today. Verv trill v vAur .

Cleaning to meet OSHA Standards including Vacuum Cleaners and other methods of cleaning. One company has been very successful in keeping their equipment clean by using small lightweight, vaouum units for individual operators. Machine operators are responsible for keeping their machines and work areas clean and dust free. Usually, two operators are used with one on each side of a frame. This enables them to do a better job of cleaning with less cleaning time. The larger vacuum units are used for floors, walls, and heavy cleaning. The use of a chem ical (Guardian) light spray is used on machinery, light fixtures, and walls which reduces airborne fibers and dust, making it easier to vacuum and wipe-off these areas. Another plant has greatly improved the dust and fiber count by eliminating their blending line and using a lap system as they have both breaker and finisher cards. This change has also reduced the amount of cleaning required in this area. 2. Dust Collection Equipment - Methods of Collecting and Frequency:- The Membrane Filter metod is now being used to collect airborne fibers. Counts are usually made after one or two hours. In a good many cases, two (2) pumps are used with one stand-by pump. A new method of weighing fibers rather than counting is under consideration but it is not definite that a change will be made at this time. (continued ) Minutes - Air Hygiene & Hfg. Committee - continued:* Page -2 3, Respirators and Respirator Programs:- Respirators must be worn in all areas where the asbestos dust concentration is five fibers longer than five (5) microns per cubic centimeter of air. Only respirators approved by the U.S. Bureau of Mines with a rating of 21B, or valveless respirators providing an equivalent protection, shall be used. All respirators must be kept clean and filters changed as often as necessary. I4.. Protective Clothing:- Some plants are using rental clothing while others use a non-woven disposable type. Both types are available in one and two-piece uniforms and the price is about the same. Plastic bags are used for storing the work clothes with two sets of lockers - one for work and one for street clothes. 5. Recent Experiences with OSHA Inspections:- Two types of inspections are made: A. Guards, aisles, signs, and other conditions for worker safety. B. Dust and Fiber Counts. This is usually done with two (2) to three (3) pumps. On a recent inspection the inspector put a pump on an employee. The company also put one of their pumps on this employee. The Inspector's results showed a higher dust count as compared with the company count. However, in this case the company did not agpfoe that its dust count was incorrect and produced past records to prove this. In this particular case the company did not receive a citation.

Acting Chairman; Mr. M.Q. Scovcroft; Mr. Alex. Kuzmuk; Mr. M.J. Scanlan; Mr.S. J. Peele, Jr.; V.B.Alcorn,Attomey;H.H.3unbury,Sec 'y Absent:- Chairman E.A.Morris and Mr. E.W. Russell Mr. Morris was absent due to illness in his family, and Mr. Lindstrom, acting as Chairman, called the meeting to order at 9:00 A.K. The proposal by the Food and Drug Administration to ban shipment of asbestos-containing consumer garments from interstate commerce, except those which were bona fide protection devices, as mentioned at this committee's last meeting, was discussed. There was no new infor mation available regarding same. It was mentioned that a leading manufacturer of safety clothing had suggested that a cooperative program might be set up to determine the extent of any hazard that could develop from use of asbestos safety clothing (such as linting-off) and that McGill University might be a suitable place to have such tests conducted. Mr. Scowcroft said that if meaningful tests could be developed that he would think it worthwhile for his company to contribute to the cost of the program. The Secretary suggested that the ABRADO-FLEX machine, developed by the late Dr. Shaw during the time he was Research Fellow for ATI, might have possibilities for use in measuring linting characteristics of asbestos fabrics used in safety clothing. After some discussion it was decided that the ATI Technical Committee should be asked to devise a test method to determine the amount of airborne dust that may be released during normal use of asbestos textiles Chairman Echerd of the ATI Technical Committee was invited in to the meeting, and Hr. Peele explained the need for developing a suitable test method as an aid to the safety clothing industry. Mr. Echerd said that his company had an ABRADO-FLEX machine and he was familiar with its operation. However, his company had developed a device for flexing fabrics that he thought was better adapted for the purpose, and illustrated the principle by a blackboard sketch. Attorney Alcorn stressed that a third party, as for example McGill University, should certify the test (or method), NOT A.T.I. Mr. Scowcroft commented favorably on the bi-lingual folder entitled "ASBESTOS AND YOUR HEALTH" pudished recently by the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association as a public information aid on behalf of its member-companies. Copies may be obtained by writing to:- Mr. John A. Gossip, Director of Information Services, Quebec Asbestos Mining Association, Room lj.12, 5 Place Ville Marie, Montreal 113* P.Q.,Canada. Minutes Asbestos Advisory Committee - continued:- Page -2- The Secretary reported that the ATI brochure "Recommended Health Safety Practices for Handling and Fabricating Asbestos Textile Products" was given some publicity in the August 10th issue of PLANT ENGINEERING Magazine and has resulted in 265 requests for single copies. The requests come from Industrial Hygienists, plant engineers, plant safety personnel, insurance companies, etc. The names and addresses of those to whom the brochure has been sent will be made available to each member of this committee. Hr. M.J. Scanlan was welcomed as a new member of the committee replacing Hr. J.W. Christenbury who resigned to accept a position outside the asbestos industry. This meeting concludes the two-year term of Chairman Morris, and the undersigned has been appointed by the Board of Governors as his successor. Respectfully submitted. M.S.

Smith represented ASTM Subcommittee D13.1U, Asbestos Textiles. Proposed Federal Specifications HH-T-1782 for Asbestos Tape and SS-C-1783 for Asbestos Cloth were reviewed by the Technical Committee along with the revised Military Sepcification MIL-C-10316C for Asbestos Cloth. Among the changes to be recommended is the deletion of all tolerances covered by ASTM Standards. A reference to the corresponding ASTM Standard should eliminate unnessary tables and simplify future revisions. Due to numerous other modifications proposed by the committee, the appropriate representatives will be invited to attend a joint meeting with our group. ASTM Specification D-315>, Woven Asbestos Tapes, was reaffirmed as a stand ard without revision and will be submitted for letter ballot. ASTM Specification D-1371, Woven Asbestos Cloth, has been revised and will be submitted for letter ballot. The Board of Govenors requested our committee devise a test method to deter mine the amount of airborne dust that may be released during normal use of various asbestos products. Procedures covering weight loss and dust counts were discussed. Additional methods will be investigated prior to our next meeting. The following ASTM Standards are under possible revision for next year: ASTM D-106l, Asbestos Lap ASTM D-37?, Asbestos Roving ASTM D-299, Asbestos Yams ASTM D-2100, Asbestos Textiles Used for Electrical Insulating Purposes.

Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual 1.1 A special meeting of the Fiber Testing Committee was con* vened at 3:00 P.M. on the 18th September, 1972 to diseuss the third edition of the "Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual". There were sixteen in attendance at the meeting. 1.2 A report on the present status of the thirty-three test methods being considered for inclusion in the manual was submitted by the acting chairman; and Hr. J.L. Tucker re viewed some of the details associated with the preparation and compilation of the material for printing. Preference was still expressed for a loose leaf binder to allow for insertion of revised test methods after printing. It was decided to obtain preliminary quotations from the printers on the basis of 1^25 pages to enable the various member com panies and other organizations to submit estimates for their requirements. 1.3 There were a number of worthwhile suggestions from those present; and it was moved and adopted that on account of the time limit involved, no additional new test methods be considered for inclusion in the manual.

The acting chairman reported that although the original deadline for the delivery of completed QAHA Test Methods to ATI had been revised to mid-October, it was still hoped that it would be possible to convene a joint meeting of the QAMA, ACPA, and ATI members involved to discuss the format, etc., of the new manual at the end of October. Minutes of the ATI Fiber Testing Committee - 19th September, 1972 There were six in attendance (indicated by asteriisks in the attend* ance list) at the regular Fiber Testing Committee meeting on the morning of the 19th September,1972. Business: 1. New Test Manual 1.1 There was some further discussion on the new test manual eg: that the provision of a good quality loose leaf binder (seven ring type) should be reconsidered. 1.2 The opinion was expressed that the title of the manual should probably read,'Test Manual for Chrysotile Asbestos* rather than, 'Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual1. 1*3 It was agreed that, when the final drafts of the QAMA pro cedures were received, they would be circulated to the com mittee members for review and oomments ( 10 to 20 copies to be supplied to the chairman for this purpose). l.li A procedure for the Alpine Test, submitted by Johns-Manville Research, was briefly reviewed. Mr. Tucker was requested to forward ten (10) copies to the acting chairman for distrib ution to the Fiber Testing Committee and Interested QAMA members for their comments and opinions as to whether it should be included in the new manual. 2. Test Methods in General 2.1 It was recommended that a list of the test methods submitted to the committee for consideration, but not accepted for printing in the new manual, be established so that copies could be made available to ATI members interested in a particular test. 2.2 It was agreed that criteria for the acceptance of new test methods should be established eg; supporting test data and documents 3* Report to Board of Governors:- Ratification of the acting chair man's lbth September recommendations to the Board of Governors for the future working progress of the committee was requested, namely:- (continued) Minutes * ATI Fiber Testing Committee - continued Page -3 3.1 Change the name of the committee to 'Fiber Research and Testing Committee'; and expand its scope to include R.& D. activities of interest to ATI. 3.2 Appoint subcommittees to work and report on definite projects etc., in the area of ATI's interest. 3.3 Prepare a display of typical asbestos ores and fibers vs man-made fibers for exhibit at a future ATI meeting with appropriate technical presentations by qualified speakers. 3.4 Place more emphasis on the presentation of technical papers within the committee and periodically to the Institute eg; annual review of developments in the state of the art of fiber testing.

Brink, A/Chairman ATI Fiber Testing Committee 6th October, 1972 Report of ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute September 19 - 20, 1972 - Absecon,N.J Page The OSHA standard for exposure to asbestos continues to dominate activities in the field of environmental health. On July 28, the IUD (Industrial Union Department) of the AFL-CIO filed a petition in the U. S. Court of Appeals in Washington, D. C., challenging the validity of the OSHA standard for asbes tos on behalf of 5 unions. The suit as filed contained no de tail on which sections of the standard that were challenged. It is expected that a full brief would probably be filed after Labor Day. The Asbestos Information Association plans to file a brief as a "friend" of the court. At a meeting on August 8 in Washington, OSHA personnel discussed problems OSHA was experiencing because of the lack of reliability of the membrane filter sampling technique. At the meeting, they expressed favor in changing to a gravimetric system of monitoring. A 15 member advisory committee is being assembled to study the many ramifications of the sampling tech niques and arrive at a solution. ; Three recently published articles may be of interest to members: (1) "Pathology of Carcinoma of the Lung Associated with Asbestos Exposure" by M. Kannerstein and J. Churg, Cancer Journal, Volume 30, page 14, July, 1972; (2)"Asbestos Air Pollution" by I. Selifoff, W. Nicholson and A. Langer, Arch. Environmental Health; Volume 25, page 1, July 1972; and (3) "Carcinogenicity of Amosite Asbestos" by I. Selikoff, E. Hammond and J. Churg, Arch. Environmental Health, Volume 25, page 183, September 1972. In their article Kannerstein and Churg say that they have confirmed through human lung cancer cases the theory that occupational exposure to asbestos enhances the cancer causing effects of cigarette smokers. Further, asbestos exposure by itself does not appear to increase the incidence of lung cancer among asbestos workers who do not smoke. Their data indicates that the incidence of lung cancer among cigarette smoking asbestos workers was 92 times as great than for non smokers not exposed to asbestos. They draw the conclusion that-it is as a cocarcinoger. in combination with cigarette smoking, that asbestos has an effect. In their article. Asbestos Air Pollution, Selikoff et al, states that the oc curence of asbestos air pollution has been established, based on finding by others of mesothelioma among individuals liv ing in the vicinity cf asbestos plants and their findings in a study on measurement of asbestos (chrysotile) content of am bient air in New York City and lungs of New York residents examined a* autopsy regularly showing chrysotile fibrils. (continued) Report of Environmental Health Committee - continued:- Page -2- Based cn a study of the mortality experience of a group of workers occupationally exposed solely to amosite whetTt excess lung cancer and mesothelioma were found, Selikoff, Hammond and Churg state in their paper that a serious health hazard is associated with the industrial use of amosite and that its continued use requires rigorous control* Since the June meeting, NIOSH has submitted published criteria packages for noise, carbon monoxide and hot envir onments to the OSH Administration. Members cf the Institute should become familar with the provisions of thase proposed standards which may have an effect on some of their operations. At a meeting of the Georgia Textile Manufacturers As sociation in August at Atlanta, the Assistant Regional OSHA Administrator stated that as soon as the new noise standard is adopted, plant inspectors for Noise will increase in tempo with strict enforcement expected. He emphasized that (1) companies must show evidence that efforts are being made to reduce noise levels throuth documentation of any study whether the results are positive or negative; (2) hearing con servation programs be initiated; (3) hearing protection be used only as an interim measure; (4) companies start thinking in terms of an 85 decibels standard rather than"90 decibels; and (5) OSHA inspectors will base citations on their measure ments, not company data.

As such, its activities must conform to federal and state antitrust laws. These laws forbid cer tain kinds of conduct, such as agreements to fix prices among competitors, allocations of markets or customers and so forth. In general, antitrust prohibitions, in the con text of trade associations, are aimed at contracts, combinations and conspiracies among competing companies, or suppliers and their customers which result in unreason able restraint of trade. It is important to recognize, on the other hand, that the antitrust laws do not forbid all concerted action among companies. If the law were otherwise, there would be no purpose for which a trade association could legally exist. This morning, I shall review with you one area in which a trade association may take lawful concerted action. That is, efforts aimed at influencing governmental processes and obtaining governmental action. This should be of particularly vital concern during the coming months Page -2- with respect to the interpretation. Implementation and enforcement of the permanent standard regulating industrial exposure to air-borne asbestos dust which was published in June of this year, and which will limit such exposure to two fibers not longer than 5 micrometers per cubic centi meter of air by July 1, 1976. Legal Criteria for Influencing Governmental Processes Broadly speaking, there have historically been two kinds of attempts to affect governmental processes through collective efforts of businessmen: first, attempts to influence the enactment and enforcement of legislation and,second, attempts to influence purely commercial activities of governmental agencies. Those actions de signed to influence the enactment and enforcement of legis lation have been held by the courts to be protected by the First Amendment's guarantee of the right to petition govern ment, and thus they do not violate the antitrust laws, specifically, for example, the Sherman Act. See, e.g.. Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., 365 U.S. 127 (1961). Conversely, concerted efforts to influence -2- Page -3- purely commercial activities of governmental agencies have been viewed as outside the protection of the First Amendment, and therefore such attempts may constitute antitrust violations. See, e.g.. Continental Ore Co. v. Union Carbide Corp., 370 U.S. 690 (1962). The Noerr Doctrine -- In 1961, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a decision in Eastern Railroad Presidents Conference v. Noerr Motor Freight, Inc., 365 U.S. 127 (1961). That case arose when a number of trucking firms and their trade association brought suit against some railroads, an -tfc* association ofRailroads1 presidents and a public relations firm. The complaint charged a conspiracy to discredit truckers through a publicity campaign and to influence legislation in a manner purposely designed to harm the trucking industry. Id. 129, 133, 138. The lobbying efforts by the railroad interests were made through "front" organizations, ostensibly organized for civic purposes. Id. at 130, 140. The trial court found the defendants guilty of violating the Sherman Act, and this was affirmed by the court of appeals. However, the Supreme Court, in review ing the case, reversed in favor of the railroad interests -3- Page -k and emphasized that the Sherman Act Is intended to regulate "business activity" and not "political activity". Id. at 137. To allow the antitrust laws to be used to regulate political activity would "raise important constitutional questions" under the First Amendment. Id. at 138. In an effort to get around this basic constitu tional principle, the truckers argued that the railroads' "sole purpose in seeking to influence the passage and enforcement of laws was to destroy the truckers as com petitors * * *" Id. Also it was alleged that unethical means, such as the use of "front" organizations, had been used to state the railroads' position. Id. at 140. Nevertheless, the Supreme Court held that such purpose and such practices failed to nullify the railroads' constitu tional right to petition government. - In explaining its holding in the Noerr Motor Freight case, the Supreme Court said that the "campaign designed to influence governmental action" was not illegal under the Sherman Act regardless of any anticompetitive purposes which may have motivated it. This, in spite of the fact that the means employed by the railroads fell "far short of ethical standards generally approved in this country". Id. -4- Page -5- Contlnental Ore Co. v. Union Carbide Corp.. 370 U.S. 690 (1962) -- The year following its decision in the Noerr Motor Freight case, the Supreme Court handed down its decision in Continental Ore Co. v. Union Carbide Corp. This case involved an issue of legality concerning group activity designed to influence the purchasing practices of a governmental agency. Although this group activity was not conducted through a trade association, the holding is nevertheless pertinent to trade association activities. The defendants included Union Carbide and Carbon Corporation and four of its wholly owned subsidiaries. The plaintiff, Continental Ore, alleged that defendants had engaged in monopolistic and restrictive practices which resulted in the frustration of Continental's efforts to enter and maintain itself in the vanadium business in the following manner: Continental had established a vanadium trade with a Canadian customer during 19^2. But when a Canadian subsidiary of Carbide was appointed by the Canadian Government as the exclusive wartime agent to purchase and allocate vanadium for Canadian industries. Continental was eliminated from the Canadian market, allegedly through actions by Carbide's Canadian subsidiary. -5- Page -6- The lower courts held for the defendants, relying on the rationale that the Canadian subsidiary of Carbide "was acting as an arm of the Canadian Government and we [the Court of Appeals] do not see how such efforts as * * * defendants took to persuade and influence the Canadian Government through its agent are within the purview of the Sherman Act." 289 F.2d at 91*, citing Noerr, supra. The Supreme Court reversed the holding for defendants and distinguished the Noerr Motor Freight case. Rather than engaging in protected political activity, the vanadium producers "were engaged in private commercial activity, no element of which involved seeking to procure the passage or enforcement of laws." 370 U.S. at 707. United Mine Workers v. Pennington. 381 U.S. 657 (1965) -- In 1965 the Supreme Court decided a case which involved a claim by several small coal operators that the United Mine Workers and a number of larger operators had violated the Sherman Act by concerted in fluence on government. Specifically, it was alleged that the defendants had persuaded the Secretary of Labor to establish wage rates for companies selling coal to the Tennessee Valley Authority at a rate too high for small coal operators to pay. 381 U.S. at 660. The alleged -6- Page -7 intent underlying such action was to prevent small coal operators from competing for TVA orders and thereby to hurt nonunion coal operators. Id. The lower federal courts considered the Noerr Doctrine and ruled that protection afforded thereunder from the antitrust laws was applicable "only to conduct 'unaccompanied by a purpose or intent to further a con spiracy to violate a statute'". Id. at 669. But the Supreme Court reversed and re-emphasized the teaching of the Noerr holding by saying that it "shields from the Sherman Act a concerted effort to influence public officials regardless of intent or purpose. * * * Joint efforts to influence public officials do not violate the antitrust laws even though intended to eliminate competition." M. at 670. Limits on the Noerr Doctrine -- Since the decision in the United Mine Workers case, there have been limitations placed on the protection afforded group activity among businessmen in dealing with governmental bodies and agencies. In 1970, it was held by a U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that the Constitution does not immunize from the Sherman Act efforts to obtain restrictive product specifi cations. George R. Whitten, Jr., Inc, v. Paddock Pool Builders. Inc.. 424 F.2d 25 (1st Cir.), cert, denied. -7- Page -8- 400 U.S. 850 (1970). In this case, the defendant was charged with having violated the antitrust laws by in fluencing product specifications used by a governmental agency for competitive bidding purposes with the result that only the defendant's product could meet the specifica tions. Id. at 27. The court held this activity unprotected from antitrust attack and said, "The entire thrust of Noerr is aimed at insuring uninhibited access to government policy makers * * * to influence the passage or enforcement of laws." Id. at 32. Protection from antitrust does not extend to purely commercial activity involving governmental administrators which the legislature itself has decided should be subject to competitive bidding. Id. at 33. A distinction has thus been drawn between actions designed to influence executive or administrative agencies in Implementing rather than forming governmental policy. When efforts are designed to affect implementation of governmental policy, a showing by a plaintiff that the efforts were motivated by anti-competitive designs may result in a holding that the Sherman Act has been violated. For example, the filing of false forecasts of demand on which production quotas for gas fields were based was held unprotected by the Noerr Doctrine in Woods Exploration & Producing Co.. Inc, v. Aluminium Co. of America, 1971 Trade Cases 1 73,^22 (5th Cir. 1971). -8- Page -9 The most recent Supreme Court decision that has struck down group activity designed to influence the government involved two opposing groups of California truckers. One group sued the other claiming that defendants conspired to monopolize trucking in California by opposing plaintiffs1 application for additional operating rights filed with the California Public Utilities Commission. The Supreme Court pointed out that Noerr recognized that "there may be instances where the alleged conspiracy 'is a mere sham to cover what is actually nothing more than an attempt to interfere directly with the business relation ships of a competitor and the application of the Sherman Act would be Justified."' Quoting Noerr, 365 U.S. at 144. In the California Trucking case, the defendants had sought not to influence public officials but rather to bar their competitors from meaningful access to tribunals and usurped the decision-making process. And although Noerr indicated that unethical tactics did not necessarily spell antitrust violations, concerted activity which is intended to deprive one group of access to agencies and courts may violate the antitrust laws if intended to "build up one empire and destroy another". In writing for the majority, Mr. Justice Douglas conceded that the distinction between a -9- Page -10- political campaign (protected from the antitrust laws) and a conspiracy to prevent access to the political process may be difficult to draw. Nevertheless, that is a dis tinction on which the present state of the law rests. Conclusion -- Organizations of businessmen, whether in the form of trade associations or otherwise, can take comfort from the pronouncement and development of the Noerr Doctrine. In this time when governmental decisions and enforcement affect this industry's welfare so dramatically, the right collectively to petition and be heard by government is a precious one that should be jealously guarded and exercised at every appropriate opportunity.

Q. Scowcroft called the General Meeting to order at 1:30 P.M., February 9, 1973, with a welcome to all in attendance. He stated each member cf the Board of Governors is making every effort to strengthen the organization and some ideas are in the making that r' ti u *. General Meeting 2/9/7; will be announced in the very near future. He voiced it was an exciting experience to start out with a wonderful new slate, including the new Executive Secretary, Mrs. Doris M. Fagan. He hoped the Board will be innovative but will not try to be too revolutionary. lie expressed a desire for the same support and cooperation from all involved with the ATI as has been received in the past. 2. Continuing the already-established tradition, President Scowcroft asked each member in attendance to rise and state his name and company affiliation. 3. Upon presentation, it was moved by A. Kuzmuk, seconded by E. A. Morris, to dispense with the reading of the minutes of the last stated meeting. The motion was so carried. 4. Treasurer Morris presented the Financial Report (see attached) showing total assets and net worth of the ATI as of January 2, 1973. As an up-date to the report, as of February 7, 1973, the Institute had received all dues from the member conpanies and the total in the savings account as of that date stood at $21,346.91. S. J. Peele, Jr., moved that the report be accepted. The move was seconded by C. G. Guerin and so voted, unanimously. 5. The Legal Counsel address was given by W, B. Alcorn of Cadwalader, (Tickersham & Taft. Since the current activities concerning CSHA requirements are being reviewed within the pertinent committees, Mr. Alcorn confined his talk to some of the basic principles of antitrust lav; which govern the distribution and marketing of products. He reviewed four U.S. Supreme Court cases that have been decided in this area. The full text of his report, written as formal Remarks of Counsel, is attached to these Minutes. 6. The Fibre Producers' Report was presented by Paul E. Leclerc, Re gional Sales Manager with Asbestos Corporation Ltd. For the year 1972, total shipments of asbestos from the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association were 1,372,677 tons, 2.3% or roughly 31,000 tons over those for 1971, The increase was mostly in Group 7. Group 3 ship ments were up only 154 tons. For 1973, Eastern Quebec producers' stocks of Group 3 Spinning Fibre are good and production should be adequate for any increase in demand. Mr. Leclerc then referred to Asbestos Corporation's activities, especially the new finishing mill at Mordenham, Germany, and gave a few remarks about the availability of certain asbestos grades from Cassiar Asbestos Corporation.

Response from the floor concerning Environmental Health included the following comment by S. J. Peele, Jr. Even though it appears the gress\ire is off on dust count citations, companies would be well advised to get the obvious things corrected at their plants to avoid OSIIA citations in other areas. L. F. Dieringer agreed and elaborated on the idea by saying when a citation is received, companies should be sure to request a reasonable abatement period within which to correct the situation. This will diminish the chance for a prenature second inspection, the result of which could he a "willful" citation charge. S. Addressing the Membership. President Scowcroft stated he wished to retain the flexibility of having a speaker at a given ATI meeting when it was deemed meaningful and important. He advised of the pro bability there will be a speaker at the next two meetings and requested that members suggest to others at their companies that they attend the meetings as the presentations should be pertinent and interesting. Tentatively, Dr. J. Corbett McDonald is being considered as a speaker at the June 1973 meeting and will be con tacted through the efforts of E. A. Farrell. A recognized expert on the medical aspects of asbestos and health and representing the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association, Dr. McDonald is an Epidemiologist with the Department of Epidemiology and Health, McGill University. Also, ATI has been approached by the Asbestos Information Associa tion/North America who is currently in the process cf establishing a program of capable speakers on what the AIA/ITA is doing. Possibly ATI will contact AIA/NA for the October 1973 meeting. President Scowcroft praised the AIA/NA stating it is doing an admirable job of keeping the Industry informed. He specifically referred to an article by Robert Sherrill printed in the January 21, 1973, edition of the New York Times. In rebuttal, the AIA/NA wrote a factual, comprehensive Letter to the Editor of the "Times." Tho newspaper responded it would consider publishing the rebuttal, if it were reduced to 400 words from tho original six-page typewritten letter. 9. The next Ceneral Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute will be held -- June 6-7, 1973 Key "ridge Marriott, Arlington, Virginia Other future General Meetings include October 3-5, 1973, at Mychmere Harbor Club, Harwichport, Massachusetts; February 6-7, 1974, at the Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina; June 1974 in the Washington, D.C., area; September 25-27, 1974, at The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia; and February 1975 in the Philadelphia or surround ing area. Page 4 ATI General Meeting 2/0/13 P. E. Leclerc expressed preference that the last day of each meeting fall on a Friday so members may extend their stay into the weekend if they so desired. It was agreed this vras the general feeling of Institute members and every effort vill be marie co oblige whenever possible. 10_ President Scowcroft advised that the mailing of the Minutes of this General Meeting will include the now ATI Directory. 11. President Scowcroft expressed appreciation to H. E. Sunbury, the former Executive Secretary of the ATI, and to D. M. Fagan for being so detailed with the changeover, resulting in a very smooth transition. 12. As the new Executive Secretary, Mrs. Fagan thanked the members for their confidence in her capabilities! She stated it is and will be a privilege and a pleasure to v;ork with this segment of the Industry -- and an honor for ASBESTOS Magazine. She also expressed the appreciation of the Magazine for ATI member support to the pro posed reprinting of "The History of the Asbestos Textile Industry in the United States," by John A, Bettes, Jr., and regretted to advise the response was insufficient to justify printing costs plus other expenses that would necessarily be involved. In answer to a query from the floor, via E. h. Farrell, separate chapters of the "History" are available solely through the purchase of the individual issues of the Magazine in which they appeared. 13^ There being no further business to be brought before the mem bership, the meeting was adjourned at approximately 3:30 P.M. via a move by E. A. Morris, seconded by L. F, Dieringer, and unanimous approval by the attending members. Respectfully submitted, Doris M.

SuMmry' [Presented at ATI General Meeting, February 9, 1973, at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia] Following is a brief report on t:-ie asbestos industry for 1972- Total shipments from the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association wore up 2.3% or 31,000 tons. It should be noted however that the increase was in group 7 which is up 63,000 tons. Shipments of group 3 were up by 154 tons r.nd group 4 by 3,800 tens. Shipments cf groups 3 and 6 were down 37,000 tons. Total shipments from the QAMA were 1,372,677 for the year. Now looking at 1973 and especially to the group that is of most in terest to you, stocks of spinning fibre from the Eastern Quebec producers are good arc production should be adequate to take care of any increase in demand this year, which we sincerely hope will materialize. * Present stocks of groups 4, 5, 6 and 7 are good but there has been a stronger demand than usual for asbestos at this tine cf year and customers are, on the whole, very optimistic as to their total requirements for the year. It could very well happen that seme cf these grades night be in short supp?.y before year end. Talking about my own company, as you knov;, we have been nir.ing in Northern Quebec and last year we started chipping ore concentrate to cur finishing mill in Germany to start the mill production. Unfor tunately, the severe storn which hit Europe last fall was particu larly felt in the Nordenham area and some of the buildings at our new plant were severely damaged thus delaying the start of our milling operations. We are at the moment in the early stages of production and at the outset the tonnages that arc forthcoming from this plant will be solely for the asbestos cement industry in Europe and this should release extra Thetford fours and fives to the North American market. It is possible that at some time in the future, if the Asbestos Hill ere is found to contain sufficient lorg fibre, and if market condi tions warrant it at that time, some spinning fibre may eventually be produced at our Nordonham mill. At the moment, however, only one, two or possibly three grades of asbestos-cement fibre in the four or five-group range will be made. Regarding Cassiar, Mr. W. J. W. Smith has informed me that grades AAA and AA are in short supply and that grade A and other shorter grades are readily available. Paul E.

V U T E 7 AIR HYGIENE & MANUFACTURING COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 9, 1973 -- Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia The following fifteen (15) members and guests attended, representing ten (10) companies: * Amatex Corporation -- H. II, Walter; Garlock Inc. -- S. G, Dixit; Johns-Manville Corporation -- C. G. Guerin, A. R. Morrill (C.J-M) W. B, Reitse; . Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd. -- E. A. Farrell; Nippon Asbestos Co.

Corson, Jr.; Uniroyal, Inc. -- B. E. Carden, L. F. Dioringer, R. C. Hunt. The meeting included discussions in the following areas: recent ex periences with OSHA inspections, cleaning to meet OSIIA standards, protective clothing, lockers, etc., noise control, changes and im provements in manufacturing. OSHA inspectors usually spend two to three days on asbestos plant inspections. The number one item on the inspection list is dust counts, and is closely followed by electrical equipment and asso ciated controls. Also, warning and information signs. Good house keeping practices and properly marked aisles are also near the top of the OSHA check list. In all recent inspections, OSIIA's dust count is much higher than the company count, and in some cases it is from three (3) to five (5) times higher. The best effort or degree of accuracy in checking dust counts is a plus or minus 40% and in some cases has checked as much as plus or minus 300%. In view of these differences, some plants have used an outside laboratory to recheck their dust samples. The outside chock correlated very closely with the conpany check. It was pointed out that weather conditions affect plant dust counts and counts are usually higher in cold, dry weather. Also, dust counts taken from machine to machine shov; higher counts. For exam ple, a count taken at number 1 machine will bo lover than a dust count taken at machine number 3. This is caused by dust generated by machines number 1 and 2, some of which is picked up by the num ber 3 machine. Page 2 Minutes of the ATT Air hygiene & Hfg. Committee - 2/9/73 Some plants have a daily schedule of cleaning all cards while others clean twice a week. As far as cleaning and housekeeping are con cerned, the advice from those who have had inspections is to keep the plant in tip-top shape at all times, as "good" is not good enough for OSHA. In one recent inspection, protective clothing from head to foot was recommended by the inspector. It is felt that in all plants, wor kers in some areas will be required to wear some protective clothing. Companies should be looking closely for vays of lowering plant noise levels. The use of ear plugs is a temporary means of controlling noise. As discussed in this meeting, noise levels can be reduced by slight changes in some machinery and with better fixing and repairs. One plant eliminated the use of ear plugs in the carding department by making changes in the condenser section. This change reduced the noise level from 92 decibels to 81 decibels. Respectfully submitted. Bucl E. Carden, Chairman MINUTES ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH CO?!MITTSE Asbestos Textile Institute February 9, 1973 -- Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Atlanta, Georgia The Environmental Health Committee met for a short time on Friday morning, February 9, 1973. Present were L. F. Dicringer and W. 3. Reitze, and at the Committee's invitation, Mr. I. H. Weaver. Discussion on asbestos centered mainly on problems associated with the method of measurement of airborne asbestos fibers. Cnntroversy surrounds the reproductibility of fiber counts on the same membrane filter samples. Various studies and round-robin fiber counting of samples have shown variations of up to three-hundred percent in fiber counts. The general feeling vras that as a result of the controversy, there has been a slow-down in OSHA inspections for airborne asbestos exposures, and that citations are very possible where the ceiling concentration of ten fibers per cubic centimeter was exceeded and respiratory protection net provided. Other discussion centered around the NIOSH criteria for recommended standards, particularly for noise and heat stress. The proposed noise standard differs from the presently promulgated OSHA standard in that it is recommended that: (1) new installations be designed with noise control for a limit of 85 dBA and that after a time per iod determined by the Department of Labor, 85 dBA be the limit for all places of employment; (2) medical surveillance in the form of an audiometric testing program be carried cut; (3) hearing protec tion be authorized only ab an interim treasure until engineering and administrative controls and procedures are implemented. The proposed heat stress standards have many features which will be difficult tc administer. It should be remembered that NIOSH, which is a part of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, bases its criteria for recommended standards on a compilation of research and actual experience. Their recommendations are forwarded tc the Department of Labor for consideration for incorporation in proposed OSHA standards. The Department of Labor has established standards advisory committees for both noise and heat stress, who held their initial meetings in Februexy. It is difficult at this time to speculate when these standards will be issued. Respectfully submitted. L. F. Dieringer, Chairman MZ VUTEG ASBESTOS ADVISOR-' COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 9, 1973 -- Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Atlanta, G eorgia IN ATTENDANCE: E. A, Morris, Acting Chairman M.

The Committee Meeting was devoted exclusively to work on the third edition of the Test Manual. The new manual, titled "Test Manual for Chrysot.ile Asbestos," will have approximately 400 pages containing 31 tests. It will be in lcoseleaf form and will cost between ?4.50 and $5.00. including a flexible binder. , The Quebec Asbestos Mining Association will supply originals of three new tests and sixteen rewritten tests, including all photo graphs and sketches. The Asbestos Textile Institute will supply master sheets of twelve retained tests, and together these will be submitted in rough draft form to the printer for final cost estimating. The Asbestos Textile Institute membership is requested to submit to C. E. Ftiefken, Chairman of this Committee, its required number of copies of the full manual and ar.y separate individual tests desired. After discussion, the following Committee decisions were made: a) Elimination of the proposed Alpine Dry Screening test. The QAMA does not wish uo sponsor this test and the ATI has insufr ficient background on the test to sponsor it at this time. b) It was decided to leave out of the index section the form in which the tests are written. c) The manual will be in seven sections, each section divided by a blank card page containing an edge identification tab. d) It was decided that where a test was deleted from the old sec ond edition manual, a new test would receive that number, so that no blanks would appear in the test index, and numerical continuity would be retained. e) Summary descriptions cf all tests would bo written in both French and English. f) An acknowledgment listing of members of associations contri buting to the work of rewriting the nanual would be retained. It was hoped that by the next meeting of the Association in Juno at Arlington, Virginia, that the printer will have the rough draft, and that by the October meeting the nanual will be completed. Respectfully submitted, , C. E. Stiefken, Chairman RFIIARICC OF COUUSFL Asbestos Textile Institute General Meeting February 3, 1372, Atlanta, Georgia Last September in Absecon, L'ew Jersey, I discussed with you. one of the antitrust cases which was recently decided by the Supreme Court. That case was California Transport v. -'rucking Unlimited, 404 U.5. 500 (1272). It further refined shftt is kr.o"n to lawyers as the "Uoerr Doctrine". Our discussion centered on the way in which that legal doctrine protects competitors iron antitrust liability when they undertake concerted efforts aimed at influenc ing governmental processees and obtaining governmental action. Today, I shall address nv remarks to another case recently decided by the Supreme Court. This opinion handed down on March 23, 1272, in United Gtates v. Topso Associates, 405 U.". 536 (1372). Tha defendants in Topco consisted of about 25 snail and medium sized independent regional supermarket chains which operated, in 33 states. Tooco .Associates was organized in 1044 to combine the purchasing power of a few snail food stores and. small grocery chains. Individually, none had the volume of business necessary to market a private brand of food, stuffs. The individual conpanios formed an association that had an aggre gate volume of business sufficient to make a private brand marketing program feasible.. This, Topco proceeded, to implement. However, the Topco associates did not feel that they should com pote against each other, bach arreod. to sell their products only in a specific, exclusive territory. Only in a few cases did. such territories overlap. In addition to territorial restrictions, Topco did not allow any of its menljers to sell Topco products at "holo3alo without permis sion of other members. Lhm.n if permission '.'era granted to sell at wholesale, such sales were restricted to defined geographic areas md had to be made under conditions stipulated by Topco on an ad hoc basis. Over the years, what began as an association of small grocers and small food store chains grew dramatically in terns of its members1 sales. The members of Topco Associates had aggregate retail sales in 1SG7 of 2.3-billion. They ware sa.rpa.5sed only by the nation's three largest food chains, 7.6P, Gafcway and I'rognr. Tot all of the products sold by the members of Topco Associates were purchased through the association. Only about 10% of their total purchases were made through Topco. About 6% of the pur chases by the association's members were of products bearing Topco's private brand labels. The government charged that the Topco marketing program involved restraints of trade which violated, the antitrust laws, specifi cally Section. 1 of the Ghormnn Act, 26 rtat. 320, r.s anond :d 15 Page 2 -- Remarks of Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/9/73 U.S.C. 1. The basis cf this action vTas the fact that the Topco associates had agreed not to compete with each other in the market ing of their private label products. In other words, comnotition among sellers of the sane brand (intra-brand competition) was restrained and leasened. Topco Associates characterized the restraints of trade involved in its marketing program as ancillary to an overriding main purpose which was to enable its members to compete more effectively with the large grocery chains. rirst, without the association's buying power, its members could not market a private brand. Second, the private label selling through Topco increased competition with such large companies as A&P. Third, however much intra-brand competition was prevented by the territorial agreements among the members of Topco, that was justified by the increased inter-brand competition with the large grocery chains which the Topco market ing plan allowed. And fourth, without the territorial and customer restrictions, Topco felt its private label program was unworkable and would fail, thus inter-brand competition with the large grocery chains would be lessened by the demise of the association. The trial court agreed with Topco's ancillary restraint rationale and dismissed the case. It recognized the restraints of trade involved but viewed the problem as one to be judged by the "rule of reason". That is, if the restraint in question is a reason able one under the circumstances, then it does not violate the antitrust lav:s. 319 F.Supp. 1331 (N.D. 111. 1970) . The government appealed to the Supreme Court. It argued that the rule of reason was inappropriate and that the Topco restrictions were illegal per se. The Supreme Court agreed with the government's position and held that the Topco marketing plan involved horizontal restraints of trade, that is, restraints involving the agreement or acquies cence of direct competitors. The territorial and customer restrictions imposed on members of Topco were illegal per se, thus making an inquiry into their reasonableness net only unneces sary but also irrelevant. With regard to Topco's territorial restrictions which the associa tion tried to justify on the ground that they promoted intra-brand competition, the Supreme Court said, "Topco has no authority under the Sherman Act to determine the respective values of competition in various sectors cf the economy." 405 U.S. at 610-611. Page 3 Renarks of Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/9/73 With regard to Topco's restriction on its members' right to sell at wholesale, the Supreme Court stated as follows: " "* * *These restrictions amount to regulation of the customers to whom members of Topco r.ay sell Topcobrand goods. Like territorial restrictions, limitations on customers are intended to limit intra-brand competition and to promote inter-brand competition. [3ut] the arena in which Topco mem bers compete must be left to their unfettered choice absent a contrary congressional determination." 405 U.S. at 612. Only Chief Justice Burger dissented from the Supreme Court's re versal of the lower court's decision. To gain a better understanding of that reversal, a brief review of several past decisions is necessary. . In 1963, the Supreme Court decided White Motor Co. v. United States, 372 U.S. 253 (1953). The defendant in that case had assigned exclusive sales territories to its dealers and also restricted its dealers from selling to certain customers, that is, government accounts. The trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the government, viewing both kinds of restrictions as illegal per se under the Sherman Act. 194 F.Supp. 562 (N.D. Ohio 1961). White Motor co. appealed the decision. It argued that the terri torial and customer restrictions were justified on at least two grounds: First, whatever lessening of intra-brand competition resulted from the challenged restraints of trade was offset by increased inter-brand competition. Second, without the territor ial protection afforded by White's scheme of distribution, dealers would not be willing to invest the substantial sums of capital required. The Supreme Court reversed the lower court's finding for the government. It remanded the case for trial because the record was insufficient to support a finding that the vertical restraints of trade were illegal. The White Motor Co. case was subsequently settled. The Supreme Court's decision on the appeal from the summary judgment was used as authority to uphold territorial restrictions by manufacturers in two cases: Snap-On Tools Corp. v. FTC, 321 F.2d 825 (7th Cir. 1963); Sandura Co. v. FTC, 339 F.2d 847 (6th Cir. 1964). In 1967 the Supreme Court decided another case involving terri torial restrictions. That case was Uni ted States v. ArnoldSchwinn & Co., 388 U.S. 365 (1967). The defendant, Arnold Schwinn Page 4 Remarks of Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/9/73 & Co., was a family business which accounted for only 12% of the bicycle market and faced large competitors. Schwinn bicycles were distributed through about 5,500 approved retailers with Schwinn service facilities. Between the manufacturer and the Schwinn retailers stood 22 distributors who, by agreement with the manu facturer, could not sell outside assigned territories or to unapproved retailers. Schwinn bicycles were distributed in three ways: by sales to dis tributors who resold to approved retailers? by sales to retailers by means of consignment or agency arrangements with the distribu tors; and by sales to retailers under which the distributors merely transmitted orders from the retailers to the manufacturer. This last manner of distribution was known as the "Schwinn Plan". Under the "Schwinn Plan", bicycles were shipped directly to the retailers from the manufacturer. On such sales, the manufacturer invoiced and extended credit to the retailers directly, but it paid a commission to the distributors for taking the orders. The complaint charged several violations of the antitrust laws. Specifically, resale price maintenance by Schwinn; allocation of sales territories among the distributors; and a group boycott of unfranchised retailers. With respect to the Schwinn Plan of selling and with respect to consignment arrangements, the Supreme Court upheld the restraints of trade on the theory that the distributors in such cases were "undistinguishable in functions from agents or salesmen." It is significant to note that the trial court had found no evidence of price-fixing and that there was ample competition from competing bicycle manufacturers. However, where the manufacturer sold bicycles to the distributors who in turn resold then to retailers, the restraints of trade were declared illegal per se. The Supreme Court indicated that a per se test was applicaEle wherever title passed, while the rule of reason approach was appropriate where the manufacturer had not parted title with the goods: "Once the manufacturer has parted with title and risk, he has parted with dominion over the pro duct, and his effort thereafter to restrict terri tory or persons to whom the product may be transferred--whether by explicit agreement or by silent combination or understanding with his vendee--is a per se violation of 1 of the Sherman Act." 388 U.S. at 382. Pngo D Remarks of Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/9/73 The Court carved out two narrow exceptions in which territorial and customer restrictions might be allowed even though title pasted. These two narrow exceptions are where the manufacturer is a new entrant and must depend upon such restrictions tc get a toehold in the market, or where the manufacturer is a failing company and the restrictions are necessary to maintain its existence. 388 U.S. at 374. In the same year that Schwinn was decided, the Supreme Court handed down a decision in United States v. Seaiy, Inc., 383 U.S. 250 (1967). The defendant in Seaiy was a venture organTzecT'by about 30 manufac turers in order to promote a national brand for bedding. The association, controlled by its members, owned the trademark, assisted with advertising, research, specifications, purchasing and, in turn, assigned each manufacturer a territory in which only it could sell the "Seaiy" products. The trademark licenses provided sanctions for violations of the exclusive sales territories. The sanctions were administered by the association of manufacturers. Despite the fact that a similar arrangement had been upheld in Denison Mattress Factory v. Spring-air Co^, 308 F.2d 403 (5th Cir. 1962), as a permissible restraint ancillary to trademark rights, the government attacked the restrictive aspects of the Seaiy market ing operation. On appeal, the Supreme Court characterized the Seaiy restraints of trade as horizontal rather than vertical. It noted that the licen sees themselves owned virtually all the stock in the trademark owner, which was the defendant in the lawsuit. Thus, the marketing arrangement was really "a joint venture, of, by, and for its stockholder-licensees" and "on instrumentality * * * for purposes of the horizontal territorial allocation." 388 U.S. at 353-354. Furthermore, the Seaiy trial court had found that the marketing plan included price-fixing. The Supreme Court in this context, treated the exclusive territorial rsstraints as part of "an aggregation of trade restraints" and struck the territorial arrangements down as "unlawful under 1 of the Sherman Act without the necessity for an inquiry * * * as to their business or economic justification, their impact in the marketplace, or their reasonableness." 388 U.S. at 357-358. The opinion in Seaiy did nothing to encourage the further develop ment of what is known as the "ancillary restraint" doctrine, treated in such cases as Gray Line, Inc, v. Cray Lina Sightseeing Cos. Associated, Inc., 246 F.Supp. 495 Tn.D. Call 1965). But m opinions subsequent to Schwinn, the Court hinted that certain re straints ancillary to the licensing of a valid trademark might be upheld. See, for example, Pcrna Life Mufflers, Ir.c. v. Interna Page 6 Remarks of Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/9/73 tional Parts Coro. , 392 U.S. 134, 136 n.4 (1968); Albrecht, v. Herald Co. , 390 U."S. 145, 154-156 (1S68) (concurring" opinion). This was the status of the lav; when the Topco case came before the Supreme Court. The Topco Associates drew some encouragement from the fact that in its Sealy opinion, the Supreme Court had referred to the argument "that a number of snail grocers might allocate territory among themselves on an exclusive basis as incident to the use of a common name and common advertisements, and that this sort of venture should be welcomed in the interests of competition." Although the Court expressed no opinion on the merits of that argu ment in Sealy, it did state that the Sealy case presented a far different situation. 38S U.S. at 357. However, the Court viewed the Topco situation as being on all fours with the Sealy problem and thus was subject to the per se rule of antitrust illegality. The court pointed out in a footnote in the Topee opinion: "It is true that in Sealy the Court dealt with price fixing as well as territorial restrictions. To the extend that Sealy casts doubt on whether horizontal territorial limitations, unaccompanied by price fix ing, are per se violations of the Sherman Act, we remove that doubt today." 405 U.S. at 609 n.9. In summary, the restraints of trade, relating both to allocations of territories and restrictions on selling to wholesale customers, were viewed in Topco' as products of a horizontal combination and conspiracy among intra-brand competitors. The horizontal aspects of that fact situation triggered the per se rule. The restraints could not be justified as ancillary to valid trademark licenses. Thus it has been reaffirmed that horizontal agreements resulting in restraints of trade cannot be justified by the argument that they are necessary to allow the combination of competitors to compete effectively with third parties larger them themselves.

Hawkins, Raybestos-tianhattan, Inc, D. T. Austin, tlniroyal, Inc, W. Maaskant, Anatex Corporation J. W. Echerd, II, K. Porter Company, Inc. Methods to determine the dusting characteristics of asbestos products were discussed at a Special Meeting on February 8th, Messrs. Hawkins and Austin reported on the availability of equipment for this test. After reviewing the properties of several abrasion and piling-type testers, the Committee decided that initial evaluation will begin with the "tumbler" method. Mr. Hawkins will request information on Johns-Ilanville's Tumbler Test. If the process appears adaptable, the Committee will seek permission to run test samples at Celanese's Physical Testing Laboratory in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Committee reviewed a letter from G. R. Tucker of the General Services Administration stating there will be coordination between GSA and the Department of Defense on the disposition of Military Specification MIL-C-10316C as soon as Federal Specification SS-C-1783 is published. It is expected the Federal Specification will be in print about March 1973. A letter from Neptune Meter Company requesting information on laps and braiding yarns was presented to the Committee for comments. Mrs. D. M. Fagan was instructed to reply and advise that pertinent ATI member companies would contact them. ASTM Standards D299, D375, D1061 and D2100 were submitted to let ter ballot for reapproval v?ithout revision. Negative votes received for each Standard were reviewed. The basic objection of Messrs. T. R. Bainbridge and J. H. Raynolds concerned the lack of statements pertaining to Precision and Accuracy. Work on the revision of D299 was started by the Committee. Respectfully submitted, J. VT.

Cr -is there seme sort of r.efarisu: conspiracy afcct to destroy the asbestos industry/? The answer to the question of "Why cs* is both complex and simple.

The background cr industry efforts to deal with the asbestos-health prcblen as a national issue goes back nearly . a decade, to Cr.

While this sera..*. did such to prick the industry's conscience about asbestos and ' ........ health, the problem still remained one of limited public and press interest until around 1967, when the media Pagan deatir.g the medical bushas searching rcr stories that uculd rrachirallv 'portray American industry1s supposed complete disrtgard fcr the environment and for the health and sarccv of its workmen and tho American public.

In our original concept, the Association wcuid limit its activities to providing accurate, unbiased intonation on asbestos and health to the press, to the public and to interested politicians and other government offiieals. It oust be renembere that at this particular tine, the enorr-ous problems that would ~ ^. __ later develop with regard to CSKA and other Federal regulatory agencies were as yet on the distant horioon and basically ur.recogr.iaed by the industry. ' Fortunately --- and properly----- the Association has had the wisdom to alter its original limited concept c: its proper functions, and now endeavors to assume whatever activities axd responsibilities it deems necessary to protect the interests ` cf the asbestos manufacturing industry^in""the United States vis-a-vis asbestos-health. 9 Fret cur :i-.er initial public relu;ic-s the Association has grown in 'he last :vo years -.'.tc an organisation with priorities in e4ig h* t p^o^ ]^ * t\e l1eJs ct er.ieavcr.

First, the customer has thoroughly investigated his saituAtion and has found that he can no longer afford to ccnti.vu:e using asbestos or asbestos-containing products, either because the cost of control is coo high or because he would have to raise the price of his product to a level that-would maxe it nca-ccicpetioive with nc.o-asnestcs containing substitutes. Second, the customer has not thoroughly investigatsd his situation and only thinks that he can no longer a:'-- continue using asbestos. Third, the customer has read cr.o or more negative articles on asbestos in the public press and has made the snap decision that *ve ought to get that dangerous stuff c us ;: cur plant.* Of en, decisions oi this nature are forced cr. p mar.agcme by ill-informed medical advioers or safety . health directors. "T- - 17 - As a result, the Associaton cancelled its scheduled series of seminars and instead elected to davelc? a mother of pacXa^ed slide presentations cr. such topics as "The Facts About Asbestos ar.d Health,* a.-.d "Jr.cer- standing the OSHA Se^ulacicr.s, " which could be used by member 7 companies as part of a tailored presentation to individual ^ oustorrers.__ These slide presentations are still i.n tna verbs, but should be available shortly. As with customer relations, the Association reels . that employee relations is a prcolem best handled by the _ individual member companies. Thus far, the AlA's sole ct.-.t: . - * .......; *'' * - * " button in this area of industry concern has been to prepare ..the draft of an Employee Safety and Health Guide on Asbestos- Health. The draft was made available to the me.-cer Sobul for their own use ar.d at laast or.e, Aayrestos-Mr..-.attan, ;-.iS produced it in bcebiec form for distribution to all its enclave- r.33 - 16 - with.the offending official's immediate superior or with the .government Agency .involved. . _ ._ ..............The Association;s firs's reACtion to the overall customer relations.problem was to approve funds for a -ties of four regional seminars at which industry customers vculd be given a number of basic presentations cn the various aspects . of the asbestos-health problem. The seminars were tentatively scheduled.for the Soring of.this year. However, the experiences of a number cf cur render companies shcwod that general catchall type seminars c: the -type originally contemplated would, net be effective in dealing -. with the majority of customer relations problem. In crier _tn_do the job properly, it was found that customer presentation . have to bo tailored to the uecos and proolems of t.he individual customer. sb-: aav 15 - Four, the customer has r. e i t..er a c: is he particularly afraid of using asbestos in his cun plant. However, he is fearful that those of his ccrtpetuticrs whose finished oroducts da not contain asbestos will stress the adverse health effects e: asbestos in crying to take business away froa hia. Custcaer fears of this nature are essentially *guc" reactions and hense extremely difficult to deal vim., And .." Five, the custcaer has none of these problems or fears but he has been advised by a government official cr inspect that he would be better off if he quit using asbestos or asbestescor.tainir.g products in his plant. While this problem does not appear to be widespread, we have learned cf a .nutoer of situations where it has occurred. Actions ci this nature by oovernmont officials arc totally uncalled for ar.d sr.euld bo dealt with promptly and decisively. The best solution .s to obtain ccmtlete -M details on tr.a incident and then to register a formal com-,lai.-.t 13 j personally believe that the employee relations aspect th-a aabestos-healtli problem is one that has been sorely neglected by cost companies within the industry. I feel this could develop into a major problem area in the near "and that steps should be taken now to deal with it. We that Dr.'Seiikorf and various organised labor groups are planning a full scale campaign to bring their interprets "of'the asbestos-health problem to the attention of asdes industry employees throughout the nation. If the indust permits this interpretation to be disseminated unrhaller the consequences could be grave indeed. 19 . ______ Xr.ter-industry relations ire best defined as keeping the industry informed .about important r.ew developments cr. the governmental, medical ar.d press relations fronts that affect asbestos. This is accomplished within the A2A by periedie distributions of documents ar.d information to the member . companies and to others on our mailing list. The value of this octicity con be cagued by ho fact that our overall mail! g list increased from a.ptrcxima eiy a dozen n&rvas in 1971 to mare than 60 a year later. Whi e we have had to trim the 1 st somewhat this year for logis 20 reasons, we assume from the frequent requests we s t _ 11 to fee placed on the list chat the material we sent cut is demo read and is or considerable value to chose receiving it. Next to givernneno affairs, our public relations and publicity actitities constitute the single largest consumer of time, effort and money within the Association. These cf you who are faailiar with the treatment that asbestos has been * receiving in the public press over the years can readily understand why this activity ranks so high an our priority list. What you nay not understand are the reasons vr.y cur extensive efforts in dealing with the nation's cress have been so . unsuccessful to dace in producing the theoretical balanced* c r `positive* story or. asbestos and health. - 21 - .The siff.p.l.e. .facc;is that :z:-z~ the scar.dpcir.t cf tsday* s .young, activist..repcrrer, -industry is the tad guy, a-; L nothing we do, say or active: can ever change this impression. L. - * A' j we spend S100 million dollars on. environmental-control, the press either says.ye ought, to have.done-it tan-years ago or that ye should.have spent 200 million. If. we sponsor medical research, they say we are.trying to buy favorable 'results. If ve are opposed to ridiculously stringent standards, they say we. are in favor of letting our employees die. A television executive in .Minneapolis described this new breed of reporter as being *so intent on demolishing the establishment that they.ypu.id. blindly destroy the credibility of the media in the bargain." Another IV executive, this time ia Chicago, stated "they want to maxe moral and political * and social judgments cn their assignments and then take sides. Never mir.d getting the facts straight." 22 ks 'a'result of this-" industry is ar.cr.star" ohilcso asbestos "will*rerain a'hot'news-item only so long as the news is bad. The'"gecc""that asbestos dees-in protecting lives an property is of r.o* ccncern to the press-.- -likewise, industry efforts to* protect workmen and the general public frc.t asfces exposure will'always be given eir.ir.al coverage, since such info mat:Lon is directly contrary to the portrait of an irresponsible industry producing a "killer* product that is the sole element of news worthiness in tho asbestos story. The press relations battle will therefore be won not when the r.edia starts to print positive cr balanced articles about asOesccs, butvnen the press ceases to print anything about asbestos at all. As long as negative news an asbostos*health continues to be generated, the r.edia will continue 'to eat it up. The media -ill only cease to carrv such stories when the generation of negative news tedsea 23 it ia as simple AS that. Positive cr balanced stones ere 4 chimera, since they are, by defimtic.-., r.:t newsworthy. Let me give you a very specific example ci this last '* principle ih action. As most of you already knew, the '* Association is currently engaged in an extensive campaign to "intarest the trade press in articles on the benefits of asbestos ' and on industry accomplishments in the environmental control " area. The trade press, unlike the national or public media, "is such sore receptive to articles of this nature and wc expect to be seeing a number of positive stories m the tribe tress in the next few months. In any case, wa also from time to tisa put out press releases "on various subjects relating to asbestos-health. A few weeks ago," we iaourod a release cn the report of the' advisory commit re e _on asbestos cancers cf the World Health Crrmiraticn. brief, ths report conoludad that the general public is not im danger rr asbestos in the environment. Thus far, we have .1 H-*J4 24 received nearly two dcten press cii.ppi.~5s -core trade ? -- licati s that carried the story. To the Pest of cur knowledge, act a newspaper, news cagatine, radio or TV station, or any ctner segr.ant of the public nedia ran the story, with the single exception of a rrtr.cn language paper in Toronto. As Z said before, if the news is gcod, the press ain't interested. ' Nonetheless, the Association has no intention of abandoning our efforts vis-a-vis the national' media. We will continue to issue appropriate press releases, cooperate with feature writers doing stories on asbestos., write scathing letters to the editor when these Stories appear, and in short, do all we can to present the press with a balanced view cf the asbestos-health situation. Cur scat recent effort in this regard has beer, the preparation and printing of an Asbestos and Met 1th Znforr.ation Fil-e, -which -wir-hsvc .tailed to scr.a j,CC0 newspapers, r.agati.-.ss , - 25 a;* ' trade publications, radio ar.d TV stations, science -nts.-s et:, ac ross the United States. I have `brought'a"half-dozen tiles along with me that you can take a look at after the tee Basically, the file contains copies of the five industry position papers which were distributed'earl'ier, as well as a number of important medical papers and a pair of photographs illustrating the benefits of asbestos and industry efforts at environmental control. You may- be interested to knew that tha item chosen to illustrate the benefits of asbestos is a fire-proof asbestos suit. ' While we don't expect our information file to change the whole attitude of the press toward asbestos, we are hoping that tha media will make use of it to. accurately report the industry's position when doing stories cn the subject. And new, having heard the bad side of the public relations problem, it's time for tha cccd news. KV. 26 And the good news is .... despite ill the r.s;i:.ve articles on asbestos-health that have appeared ir. the press over the past half-dozen years, very few people have dec.-, ^gying attention. Let ce explain. . In February, the Association ur.dartcck a personal interview research survey of the American public to detemina its attitude toward asbestos and its awareness cf the health issue. The survey was conducted by the Opinion Research Corporation during March and April, here than 2,o:c d ere graphic ally selected Ar.erica.ts were interviewed. - have here with se sufficient ccpies for ail of you of a surr-ary of the results. < CChhi.N? FRCh.5CMhA.Vf } Before going on to describe cur activities ir. th.e government relations area, I thinJc it .tacr.t be intercsttr.g at this point to take a very brief loch at the .tanner ir. which Dr. SeliJcoz'2 and his supporters have used Ms results tc dramatise and exaggerate the sericuo.nos s asbestos-health problem. Z have two slides which = out 'rather conclusively. SI RESEARCH DATA Vhe first slide shews the actual results ci Cr. Selikof four nortaiity studies of asbestos workers. The r.uUers in " parenthesis beside the figures for total number c: workers indicate these who have so far died from all causes. The percentage figures alongside the total number of deaths from asbestssis, lung cancer and mesothelioma are based en the total number cf deaths frea all causes, net on the number c: workers in the study. The most important study of the lot is the second from the top, showing the deaths from asbcstos-rslated disease amcr.g all members of the insulation workers union, ruga .-ole so 0 of length of exposure. Tou will- nose that Zi per csr.t c: those workers who have died thus far have died from one cf the three asbestos-related diseases. . These, then, are the facts Dr. Selikcff wcrxs i:z~. This is what he knows from his own investigations. Now let cs take a look at what he has done with these figures in order to dramatise the problem. . SZ.ZZZ 2------- PREDICTIONS * This slide shows Dr. Seiikofi's predictions about asbestos-related deaths in the L'r.ited Statas. Without going into details, Dr. Selikoff has arrived at his pro*ectic.-.s by the simple procedure of multiplying the percentage cf deat.-.s from asbestos-related disease among his insulation workers by the total number cf employees in the entire industry. & 29 You will also .-.see that he has ruses his prc;ectsi death estimate to er.crssus heights over she pass year by simply increasing the base figure of employees exposed, whole still retaining the orecentage multiplier of 24 per cent being experienced by the insulation workers. I night pcint out that this tactic, however improper and deceptive, has been an enormous success since each raising of the estimate has earned Or. Selikoff correspondingly grater coverage by the media. So finer example exists cf the total gullibility of the press than the manner m which Or. Selikoff manipulated and. played on their prejudices to gain publicity. Z can readily envision the let cf them up there at Mount Sinai laughing themselves silly ever the ease with which they bamdeotiad the press with these trumted-ut predictions. - 2; Please don't gee r.e gentler.en. : ;-.ve 11;;.e V.. . doubt-that .the insulation yorXers are in. fact dying as rapidly `............ F" . . j.a Dr.. .Seiikoff says .they are. The problem is he has translat their aoreality experience to the rest cf the entire industry, which is absolutely ridiculous. .La tha.iirst place, the. estimated r.urher of employees in the industry is too high --- five tir.es too high to be precise. Even rare, important, according to an analysis by the ..Association of acre than a doten .tortality studies, including .those of Dr. SeliJcoff, cur predicti on is that actrcuir.ate.y 25,000 past and present employees in the asbestos industry have _di ed or will eventually dia of asbestos-related disease. This is less than cne-chirteenth of Dr. Selikdfs's test recent estimate. 2a addition, cur figures s.hcw that '20 e: t.ha 2S,0C2 deaths or 30 per cent --- will occur ar.cr.c the se m t.-.e insulation traces. 'SSA >vr3r..vV^t - 31 - While chase estimates should be reusu:::.: to -*.:se ~ oi us in c"e lining and canuraccuring areas of the industry. sJSl we should not forget that 5,000 of our wcrhnen are still go mg 1 to die of asbestos-related disease and that, all things considered, there is absolutely nothing that we can do to prevent it. The only thing we can do is to clean up cur plants to assure that those entering the industry in the future will not have the'same experience. ` 1C SZ.ISS 3-------C0VS3.NMSNT ACSNCISS Within the past year a t a half, the ram thrust cf Association effort has shifted to the government affairs front. The principal agencies in Washington with which wo nave leer, dealing are, of course, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration; the Sr.viror_ter.tal Protection Agency: the rood and Drug Administration: tho 3ureau of Mines: and, to a lesser degree, the National Institute of Occupational Safetv and Maal*h - s: and the National Institutes of Health, betn c: -r..:.-. are nainiy involved an research efforts. In addition,-a few weeks ago we were contacted by the Federal Trade Commission, which had received a petition froa the Center for science in the Public Interest requesting an investigation of consumer uses of asbestos for the purpose of determining whether certain products ought.to be labeled as hazardous and whether warnings should be required on all ' advertisements for those products. On the basis of ay .teetir.g with an investigator frea the FTC I would say that we have little to worry about in this particular area. . SHOE 4------- OSHA - The Occupational Safety and Health Adminaserataon has been of enormous concern to the industry over the past IS months. As taost of you already knew, the Association expended tremendous efforts during the sax month period - 33 - leading to cho promulgation cf last June's CSKA scar.carcc asbestos-.--- I think it is a 'gauge of the effectiveness of the total industry involvement in this most crucial matter that of eleven main-requiromencs'in the standards, the industry position"was -accepted totally by'OSHA on nine of the eleven', .-.bout fifty ?erceht'-cri * tcrrth', *ar.d totally rejected on only one. --Now, of- course,- OSHA is planning to redo the standard packago and we- are working closely with them on this project. The first step-will be-the-formation-ci`a IS man advisory committee-to review'the current standards and any additional data and-information that has been developed in the year since the standards were promulgated. . Working - in cooperation-with r.ir.a other trice associations, including your own, we-have selected four individuals as industry wide recommendations to CSKA for the'"four so-called emtlover 3-J specs on che advisory c;r~.- m a e. Tha ccur peep.u sclec.rd were Guy Cadrieisen, President of Nicclet; Ike Weaver Raybestcs-ttanha.ccan: Dr. Fred Pundsack, Vica President for Research and Development of Johns-Kanviile; and Cliff Sheckier In discussing the formation of che advisory committee with John O'Neill of che OSKA Scandards Develcpr.enc Seccion, ve were asked co add a couple of names co che lisc so chat CSdA would have ac lease che servblan.ee of a seleccicn. This we have agreed co do. The ccrmiccee will he given up co nine norms co complete t-s deliberations and prepare for CSHA a revised standard package. This will de followed by public hearings, approximately a year from now. We da not expect to see a r.ew standard promulgated before che Fall of 197; . i i` ill i1 ( i : f. 25 It is of course impossible to determine at this nme whbt A^s.r.ew standards will lock like, however, I would venta to say that they will certainly net be less strict thar. tr.e ones we have today, although they will probably be less contusing and leave less room for employer interpretation. Something will unruestionably be done to improve the current difficulties with the monitoring requirements. Si:32 5 ------- NIOSH These slides, y the way, are merely simplified organisation charts of he various agencies with which we dea ih Washington. ` ' Tho main fur.ct or. of the National Institute tor `OccupYtional Safety and Health is to conduct research an prepare so-called Crite ia Packages, which are essential recemmendacicr.s to CSHA for standards on various materia and chemicals. Such a aukage on asbestos was prepared - 3$ - Sy NICSH it the cine of t.k.s OSKA proceedings last year. NIC;:-: will r.cz be preparing a r.ew cr revised criteria peerage f:r ;.k.e upcoming review of the asbestos standards. I do r.ot believe it would be unfair to say that of ail the agendas in Washington dealing with asbestos, Cr. Selikorf has had his greatest influence on the young idealistic scientists and doctors at NIOSK. Consequently, . industry influence is weakest in this agency. It was .VICSH, after ail, that made the original recommendation for a two fiber standard in the asbestos industry. sues 6------- E?A Next to OSKA, the Environmental Protection Ager.ry ha. the greatest potential of any federal agency for adversely affecting the future cf the asbestos industry an this country. Not only is tho SPA responsible for developing and enforcing air and water pollution standards, but the Toxic Substances . 3 Control Act, now pending in Congress, wall also :e::-e an E?\ function after passage. ............ - For this reason, I am pleased to he idle ts say that che asbestos industry has an excellent relationship with the EPA. No finer proof o'f this- exists than the fact that there was not a single major indu-stry recommendation or suggestion made to the EPA at the public hearings on the proposed asbestos emission regulations that was net accepted either in tots or in principle'in the final- standardswhich were published an early As: i! of this year. We are presently wording with the E?A or. the development of waste water effluent standards for asbestos manufacturing plants. We fully' expect that these standards will turn out to be as reasonable as the air pollution regulations. The proposed effluent standard's are scheduled ts be published m the "ode :al Register in early July. This will be followed ty ' 2S public hearings, prcoably in lice July cr .-.ucust, w. cr. cr.a fir.il standards being promulgated ir. the Tall, cernaps as early as October. . We are also planning, in the near future, to meet in Washington with representatives fron the standards develcpmen and enforcement branches of the E?A to discuss with then questions of interpretation and compliance policy with regard to the r.ew air pollution regulations. We have already resolved cr.e interpretation question that is of special interest to the asbestos textile industry. Approximately two weeks ago 1 was asked by a neeber company c the Association to find out whether the Z?A was planning to . ' require the manufacturers of asbestos safety clothing to register as potential emission sources under the lav. :t r;. ..1:i1;i \ 39 ' In 'di'scussir.g the situation ever the phone with :?a compliance officials,'T argued that the producers of asbestos safety clothing were not manufacturers as defined in the regulations"`but were instead only fabricatiors of an asbestos "product,"and as "such," should not have--to register as poter.tia "emission sources.-" - - - - ------ " After our phone conversation ended, a brief meating ` was held among the E?A compliance people. I was then called back and informed that they agreed with me that the safety clothing producers should not be required to register. ' While this rather ni.-.&r problem took approximately an hour and a half and two or t.-.rae p.hcr.e calls to resolve, it is indicative of the type of day-to-day services that the Association provides for its member companies. 0 SHOE 7-------TOA ' "over the mast year the Fcod and Drug Adminseratic.-. k41 'shown dn increasing interest in asbestos as a possible hazardous contaminant in various foods, beverages and drugs. Late" in 1972 they set up an asbestos task force to review the situation and to propose regulations and guidelines where appropriate. . Thus far they have concentrated their efforts m two areas'--- on the use of asbestos-contaminated talc in food packaging and an cosmetics, and secondly, on the use of ascestcs celuiose filter pad* in the beverage and drug industries. n our first meeting with the TEA task force last November on the filter problem, they demonstrated an appalling ignorance about the health hazards of asbestos. Since then, they have gotten or.e heck cf a lot smarter, due at least m part to the tremendous amount of data ar.d inf or mm tier, w.-.icn 41 the Association has been supplying -3 -'em. ~s a the F'JA is today less pamcNy about isles::: and :.*.s:e::rt less liXely to propose foolish, ur.supportibic reguiatic.-.s. Spokesmen from the FCA have, in fact, defended the filter i against environmentalist attacks in the press and eisevhar, recent months. This is, ccite obviously, a healthy sign. SLIDE 8 ------- INTEREST GROUPS Since our contacts with the National Institutes of Health have been quite minimal, and since the health and safety section of the Bureau of Mines is presently being reorganised, we can now proceed to taXc a brief lecX at the < variouj interest groups that hava been in tho ftrefront of the assault on asbestos. These are the groups and crranirat: that coostifata *tha other side.* As you can see, there are a lot of them, and between thea they cm exert powerful pressure on legislators-and administrators at all levels cf gaver.-.-.int. I 42 Since tine is net available to discuss eacn ci v.eir actti;vities and philosophies'in detail, I would like to say that we keep a close watch cn all of them and are always prepared to take whatever action is appropriate when they step out cf line. sue: projector err-------lick? on Our activities in the area of Congressional relations have been quite minimi to date, although we are preparing dor the upcoming struggle in Congress-over workmen's compensation reform legislation, at which time asbestos is unquestionably going to be racked over the coals by Dr. Selikoff and his compatriots in organised labor. Unfortunately, the Association has neither the mar.river r.or the time to embark cn a full-scale legislative information program. We have met on occasion with tha legislative and legal assistants to various senators uv.o have attacked asbestos, -o- however ouch .more. needs to'be dona.in -his arid- ir.i : am. afraid individual eerier companies. are going.ua have to he the prime ball carriers-and. not tho .Association; t . ' -- - - for essentially the same reason; our government 'activities at the state and local level have declined to essentially zero.overthe "past year and a half. This has net been coo serious-a deficiency as cost of the authority of the cities and states in asbestos control has been usurped by .the .various Tederal regulatory agencies. Nonetheless, (tcre individual company activity, is required at these levels of government. . .In conclusion, I think we can all be justifiably ` pleased with what, we have been able to accomplish in the oast few years in resolving, the cornucopia, of interrelated problems that constitute the asbestos-health situation.  ' Cur-plants are-dearer and our workmen terror pretested The general public has-been-'shown to: be in no danger fr== asbestos,'-12 it ever was.- While we hive been regulated extensively, for the nose part the standards that have been \ developed have net been as bad as we beared they night be, and in sede cases' they turned cut Jar better than wc ever dared hope. In addition, while we are still, taking our lusps - in the public press, the net effect oc all this adverse - publicity has-been shown to be surprisingly snail. We have sweated a lot and we have groaned a 1st, but we are still standing and we are still viable. I sense today within the industry a greater feeling of ssr.fiier.ee in the future than at any tir.u m the past few years. But we oust not'rest contented.- - . 45 We rxs: remember 'that Cr. Sciihcf: .`.as to da:: been far lei's successful than our industry has m influencing the decisions of the various governmental regulatory agencies. This will make him try harder. Just last week Z saw a speech \ .. of his in which he purposely misinterpreted some data by a distinguished British scientist in order to prove that ever. two fibers is not a sufficiently safe level for occupational exposure to asbestos. ' . ' The struggle is far from over. We must not only continue but indeed expand cur activities m the various areas of concern if we are to assure the future well-being of the asbestou industry m the United States.

It was related by President Scowcroft that recent technological breakthroughs in basic yarn production techniques have influenced the Institute: to souk v/iiler representation in its membership. It was reported that as a rosult, the ATI Hoard of Governors had approved a change in the Constitution and By-Laws of the Institute involving Associate Membership requirements. Article III, Para graph 2(c) of the Constitution has been revised as follows: "those weavers of asbestos-containing fabrics and tapes, for resale as such, who do not manufacture the asbestos-containing yarns U3ed in same, shall be eligible for Associate Membership in this Institute." 11. president Scowcroft referred to the new identification cards tKat had been given to each member in attendance, asking that they be returned to the Executive Secretary for use at future meetings, 12. As stated by President Scowcroft, there seems to ho some diffi culty with the postal process in that some reservation cards are not arriving at ATI headquarters. In an endeavor to avoid undue problems at future meetings, it was advised that each member who nakis a reservation with the Executive Secretary would receive a brief acknowledgment within approximately ten days' tine. If same dooa not arrive in duo course;, it would ho well to so advise the Secre tary. 13. The next General Meeting of 'the: Asbestos Textile Institute will be held: October 3-5, 1973 Mycljrnere Harbor Club, Mnrwichport, Massachusetts Guest Speaker will be Dr. J. Corbett McDonald, Epidemiologist, McGill University, and Medical Advisor to the Ouebec Asbestos Min ing Association. 14. President Scowcroft advised that every effort is being made to oblige the wishes of the nenbership-nt-large hy scheduling, when ever possible, future General Meetings of the Institute so that they end on Fridays, beginning in 1974, future ncctingo will be: February 7-8, 1974, at the Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina; Juno 8-7, 1974, at Twin Fridges Marriott, Uar.hinqton, D.C.; Septenbcr 25-27, 1974, at The Cloister, Eca Island, Georgia; February G-7, 1975, at Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Tentative future meeting sites include Ponte Vedra Club, Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, in October 1975 and the Marriott in Mew Orleans, Louisiana, in February 1978. 15. Before introducing the Guest Speaker, President Scowcroft re ferred to five booklets that were distributed prior to calling the Page 4 -- ATI General Meeting -- 6/7/73 meeting to order. Just off the press, the: booklets were published by the AIA/tlA and are entitled: The Asbestos Information Associntion/North America, What Asbestos Is--Mow And Where It Is Used, Asbestos And Health, Questions and Answers--Asbestos And Health, and Protecting The Asbestos Worker. Tingle copies of the booklets arc available from the AIA/MA, 22 East 40th Street, he:/ Vork, 'lew York 1001C (hulk-rates on request!. 16, President Gcowcroft introduced the Guest fpeakcr: Matthew , Swetonic, Executive Secretary, Asbestos Information Association/ North America. Mr. Swetonic (whoso profile is., attached) discussed the AIA/llA, its formation, its history and tho .vjork it is doino on behalf of the asbestos industry in the United states, lie also talked about the impact of OGHA and F.PA regulations to control the amount of asbestos dust in the atmosphere. Ha discussed the ques tion: Why has the Asbestos Industry been singled out by government, the press and various conservative groups? llo stated that the industry is passing through a crisis period in the U.G. and that closer tics between trade associations would be beneficial. Hr. Gwctonic advised that lie has been talking with the press about asbestos and health since I960 and that out of 150-179 reporters, only 2 were over 35. We are dealing with a young and idealistic group, he said. From a survey taken of the awareness and attitudes toward the use of asbestos, it was discovered that asbestos is relatively unknown to the general public. The situation changes little between urban and rural areas. It was interesting to notes that the survey indicated that those in the 10-25 age bracket know little about asbestos but that awareness increased in those inter viewed who were between 40 and 45 years of age. A copy of Mr. Swetonic's presentation, in its entirety, is attached to these Minutes. 17. There being no further business to be brought before the membership, the neeting was adjourned at approximately 3:00 P.M., as per a notion by n. A. Farrell, seconded by r. a.

After the fall-off in 1972 in 5 and Group fibres, this market has begun to recover, although not to th sane extent as the previously-mentioned 4 and 7 Groups. Of main interest to members of the A.T.I. are the spinning fibre Group 3 grades. Cruder, and ultra-long spinnings continue to be in short supply, but the medium and short spinnings in the 3F to 3Z range are in fair suDply from most producers, 'to shortage is foreseen in these grades during ln73, although individual produ cers may be tight in some specific gradings. There are no indications at present that there will he a marked change during 1974 in spinnings; however, in short fibres, the current oversupply of GD fibres may be closer to balance next year. One or two new nines in Canada are scheduled to come into produc tion in 1975, but there is no likelihood that they will produce any spinning fibres. The same is true of new sources in Australasia.

Also, it was pointed out, again, that the height of the pc-rson being checked has some bearing on the dust count. Dust on fiber samples, when checked by different people, shows a difference or a variation of as much as 5 to 1 and an average of 40% variation, plus or minus, with more variation on higher counts. Spacing of equipment using a larger area anil using a second unit to recirculate the air has shown sonc rec.u_tion in dust counts. 'Then stripping cards, use hoods placed as low as possible over the area and strip with a brush attached to a vacuum, hone plants utilize the Abington system when stripping cards. One plant reported the use of a light spray (T-E-X) on mixes using roughly 2%, while another plant sprays carrier only with a mixture of water and ban-set. Doth plants report sona reduction in dust as a result of using the sprays. In a recent plant inspection by OSHA, one company received several fines for the following items: 1) Some employees with no respirators; 2) Company had not provided protective clothing in required areas; 3) Citations resulting in tv?o 5700.00 fines for exceeding five (5) iibors in one area and a time-weighted average of over ten (10) fibers in another area. In some recent cases the OfTlA Agency has reduced dust counts by 25% before actually issuing a citation. Some plants are using rental uniforms and lockers both furnished by the rental uniform people. The uniforms, two per employee each week, averages about $2.50 v/eckly. In most cases the rental uniform is a short-sleeved shirt and pants only, and this has been acceptable. Respectfully subnitted.

As of meeting tine, the following is the status of various propos :d OSTLA occupational health standards which are of interest to Timber conpanies: 1) Vois-e -- A Department of Labor Standards Advisory Commit tee is meeting periodically to consider this standard. At its meeting in Boston on '`.ay 21, 1973, the American Confer ence of Governmental Hygienists (ACCIV) recommended the adoption of a notice cf intent to change the Voise Threshold Limit Values to C5 dfi.A for an C-hour-a-day, tine-weighted, exposure. .At the C.GIIA Standards Advisory Committee meeting in Washington, D.C., on Jlay 37, 1973, r>r.

It differs slightly from, those recommended by nioSJT in its criteria package in that permissible work-rest regimens are specified. The status of the proposed standards is clouded by recent criticism that the T*BC,T index is not an adequate indicator of heat stress. Proposals have boon made that sweat rates a.nd heart rates are more indicative of heat stress.

Alcorn presorted to you remarks of counsel dealing with illegal divisions of territory among competing sailors. The cases he referred to than dealt with explicit agreements in which the map was carved ho among the sailing companies involved on the principle of "enr: region one company". The decided cases have held such agreements to be unlawful, with a few limited exceptions. recent case has focus.:d attention on the division of markets where the agreement or plan is not clearly spelled out. In Hobart Drothers Company v. Malcolm T. Gilliand, Inc. , *171 F.2d 894 (5th Cir. 1973) , cert, denied, 41 U.E.L.W. 3 C.? 2 (May 20, 1973), a distributor of welding equipment was assigned by the manufacturer "primary responsibility" for distribution in northern Georgia. Che natural commercial instincts of the firm, however, led it to begin selling in Tennessee, which was not only outside the northern Georgia territory, but was ,Tithin an area supplied directly by the manufac turer. Eventually, the distributorship agreement was cancelled by the manufacturer, and the distributor sued the manufacturer, charging an illegal division of territories. The defense nmphasizKt the absence of a written contract prohibit ing the distributor from selling in any particular area. There had been such an agreement years earlier, but counsel had remedied that problem by drafting rev; contracts assigning "areas of orirar^ responsibility", which did not on their face limit sales elsewhere. The courts nevertheless held the arrangement to be illegal. The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals stated that "A silent understanding can be shewn by the course of conduct of the parties." The chief damaging evidence was an intra-office nero from the Tennessee dis trict representative of the manufacturer to the hone office which reported the distributor's sales ir. Tennessee and urged the manu facturer to "counter" by selling directly in the distributor's territory, northern Georgia. One of the important teachings of thi3 case is that compliance with the antitrust la*73 - whether the issue is prices, distribution schemes, refusals to deal with certain companies, or any other sensitive trade regulation natter - is not achieved by nerolv avoiding the obvious, spelled out forms of transgression. Tara muwt be taken not to lessen competition indirectly or through unexpressed understandings as well. Having mentioned violations of the law through nore devious means, which seems to ne appropriate at this gathering, so close to the 'Jatergate building, I would like to note another connection >X3twoen antitrust law and politics. Page 2 - honarks of Counsel - ATI General I'oeting - 6/7/73 "'rade associations as rail as other ccnncrcial nr^ups ca run afoul of the- lar by assuming povror in their private activities which pro perly belongs to the government. The early price-fixing cases reflect the vier that private parties should net be permitted to regulate so sensitive a feature of the economy as prices. Similarly, any joint action which excludes certain companies from, important commercial benefits is viewed by the courts as the imposition of a punishment - vhich is a power reserved to the courts. In fashion Originators * Guild, Inc, v. red.eral '"'redo Commission, 312 U.S. 45? (1341) , for example, a combination of manufacturers cf women's garments and nanufacturers of textiles tried to prevent the copying of their fashionable clothes by so-called "stylo pirates". The fashionable clothes group refused to sell their products to manufacturers or retailers of garments who dealt uith the competing "style pirates". The Supreme Court rejected the defense that such a practice v;as justified by the necessity of ridding the business of unscrupulous garment designers. The Court said: "... the combination is in reality an extra-governmental agency, which prescribes rules for the regulation and re straint of interstate commerce, and provides extra judicial tribunals for determination and punishment of violations, and thus 'trenches upon the power of the national legislature and violates the statute' [i.c., the Sherman Act]." 312 r.S. at 4C5.

Eugene T. I,off, Attorney CADt'AAADFR, VICKERSI'AM & TATT ABOUT THE SPEAKER The names Matthew M. Swetonic and Asbestos Infor mation Association/North America are synonymous. It was Matt who developed the original AIA/NA Prospectus in the Fall of 1970 and who prepared the presentations for both the introductory and the organization meetings. Upon J-M's decision to move its corporate head quarters to Denver and Matt's electing not to make the move, he was employed as AIA/NA*s first full-time Executive Secretary. For the first three months of 1972 he handled two jobs: Manager of Environmental Affairs for J-M and Executive Secretary for AIA/NA. During this time he orga nized the industry effort for the EPA and OSHA hearings and wrote for others or presented himself six major presentations in a period of 45 days, a record which he states he hopes he "will be never asked to break." Matt is 30 years of age and is married. He is a native New Yorker, was reared in Easton, Penna., and now resides in Manhattan. He holds a B.A. in Creative Writing and an M.S. in Journalism. Following a tenure as Feature Writer for The Eas ton Express, he joined J-M in July 1965 as Associate Editor of News/Pic, an employee maga zine. He was promoted to Editor in January 1967 and one year later was named Coordinator, Special Projects. This is the job that granted him the expertise to superbly fulfil his duties as Execu tive Secretary of the AIA/NA as the major respon sibilities included writing J-M asbestos-health position papers, preparing speeches on asbestos- health for top J-M executives, working with J-M public relations counsel and learning asbestos- health literature backwards and forwards. WHY ASBESTOS ? A Presentation Before the Asbestos Textile Institute Arlington, Virginia - June 7, 1973 By: Matthew M. Svetonic, Executive Secretary Asbestos Information Association/North America I am sure that many of you have asked yourselves, as I ha^c asked myself, why has the asbestos industry seemingly been singled out as the prime target for so many assaults by government, labor, the press, certain segments of the medical profession, and by various environmental and consumer activist groups? Why us? Can asbestos really be all that bad? Are the products we produce truly going to kill millions of Americans, as some experts have predicted? Or is there some sort of nefarious conspiracy afoot to destroy the asbestos industry? The answer to the question of "Why us" is both complex and simple. Complex because it is a combination of three interrelated but separate factors. Simple because each of the factors is, when considered by itself, quite obvious. The three factors are (1) asbestos can cause disease, (2) a spokes man arose to champion the need for asbestos control, and (3) a cornucopia of new government agencies were set up to control materials and products that can cause disease. Let us look at each of these factors in turn. First, there is no doubt that the inhalation of substantial amounts of asbestos can lead to increased rates of various types of lung disease, including two forms of cancer. These are facts which can not be denied, even if they do not apply in all circumstances and under all conditions. The medical literature is full of solid evi dence linking asbestos to disease. In my office, I have on file more than 2,000 medical papers dealing with the health risks of asbestos and hundreds more are published every year. Secondly, the spreading of concern over the health risks of asbes tos has as its prime spokesman one of the most talented medical publicists of the age -- Dr. Irving J. Selikoff of Mew York's Mount Sinai Hospital. Not only is Dr. Selikoff capable of arousing the ire and moral indignation of the most conservative reporter or politician with his graphic descriptions and predictions of the ravages of asbestos, but he has also surrounded himself with a group of similarly talented associates who have carried the Mount Sinai message to the far corners of the nation. While Dr. Selikoff has, in his zeal, unquestionably painted a far darker picture than the facts warrant, we should always remember in his defense that the insulation workers he has been studying for Page 2 - tfhy Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 more than a decade were and still are dying from asbestos related disease at an appalling rate. Such a situation would be sufficient to make a crusader out of the most conservative of scientists. Finally, in the past decade there has been a tremendous growth in public and governmental interest in environmental and occupational health matters. This interest has been translated into a series of far-reaching laws affecting industry in a manner hitherto unknown in this or any other country. I believe it is accurate to say that these new laws, such as the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Clean Air Act, the Consumer Product Safety Act, and others, have forever altered the concept of the free enterprise system as it was known in this country for a hundred and fifty years. Thus, in combination, these three factors created a situation in which a cadre of freshly created federal agencies, with strong statutory authority, were prodded into assigning priority status to asbestos by Dr. Selikoff and his followers, who achieved these ends through skillful use of the great wealth of negative asbestos-health data contained in the medical literature. In short, the asbestos industry was singled out because it was vulnerable to attack, because there was someone willing to lead that attack, and because Congress had graciously provided the vehicles for such an assault. The background of industry efforts to deal with the asbestos-health problem as a national issue goes back nearly a decade, to Dr. Selikoff's now famous 1964 seminar on asbestos disease at the Hew York Academy of Sciences. While this seminar did much to prick the industry's conscience about asbestos and health, the problem still remained one of limited public and press interest until around 1967, when the media began beating the medical bushes searching for stories that would graphically portray American industry's supposed disregard for the environment and for the health and safety of its workmen and the American public. The asbestos-health problem was found to be tailor-made for such stories. As a result, starting with Paul Brodeur's infamous Hew Yorker article of March 1968, asbestos has since grown into an item of major press interest. In those years, industry efforts to combat the spate of negative press articles on asbestos were carried on primarily by the JohnsHanville Corporation, which set up a task force of specialists in various fields to do what it could to portray the problem in its proper perspective. While some minor successes were achieved, it was found that no one company acting independently could adequately or effectively represent an entire industry in dealing with the press and with government officials. As a result, in late 1970, eight companies gathered in Hew York City to launch the Asbestos Information Association of Horth America, Page 3 - Why Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 which was patterned after the British Asbestos Information Commit tee, which had been established some three years earlier. In our original concept, the Association would limit its activities to providing accurate, unbiased information on asbestos and health to the press, to the public and to interested politicians and other government officials. It must be remembered that at this particu lar time, the enormous problems that would later develop with regard to OSKA and other Federal regulatory agencies were as yet on the distant horizon and basically unrecognized by the industry. Fortunately -- and properly -- the Association has had the wisdom to alter its original limited concept of its proper functions, and now endeavors to assume whatever activities and responsibilities it deems necessary to protect the interests of the asbestos manufac turing industry in the United States vis-a-vis asbestos-health. From this rather narrow initial public relations concept, the Association has grown in the last two years into an organization with priorities in eight major fields of endeavor. These are: Medical Affairs, Legal Affairs, Environmental Control, Customer Relations, Employee Relations, Inter-industry Relations, Publicity and Public Relations, and Government Affairs. To take these activities one at a time, let us start with medical affairs. It is an obvious fact that if an organization is to speak authori tatively on a medical matter, it must not only be steeped in the literature of that particular medical subject, but it must also keep itself constantly informed of new discoveries and developments. This we have accomplished in a number of ways. For example, by sending representatives to important medical meetings, such as the 1972 Lyon, France, international conference on the biological effects of asbestos, which was sponsored by the World Health Organi zation. We also meet on an irregular basis with various medical experts in the field, both from the United States and abroad, to review and discuss recent developments and discoveries. Our literature research is eased considerably by receiving the monthly medical paper distribution of the Institute of Occupational and Environmental Health in Montreal, which is funded by the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association. This year, for the first time, the AIA has elected to sponsor medical research of its own. Currently underway is a completely AIA/NA funded study of chest sounds, which is being conducted by Dr. Raymond Murphy of the Harvard School of Public Health. The purpose of the study is to find a new method of determining an individual's potential susceptibility to asbestos disease. Page 4 - Why Asbestos?/ by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 The Association has also recently decided to contribute to some very exciting research into a possible cure for mesothelioma through electromotive treatment. This study is being conducted at Somerset Hospital in New Jersey. In the legal affairs area, the Association participated in an amicus curiae capacity in the law suit brought by the Industrial Union Department of tho AFL/CIO against the Occupational Safety and Health Administration on the asbestos standards. In our brief the Association supported OSHA against the IUD, somewhat of a unique position for an industry to find itself in vis-a-vis a governmental regulatory agency. Oral argument on the case was held April 4 in V/arhington. While a decision has yet to be handed down by the Court of Appeals, we are confident that the case will be decided in our favor. The Association has retained the services of a special technical consultant on environmental control affairs. At the present time, he is working with tho AIA/MA Environmental Control Sub-Committee on the development of a series of five Association compliance manuals on the OSHA standards. Last year, because of the well established unreliability of the membrane filter method as a monitoring tool in the asbestos industry, the AIA undertook the sponsorship of a study at a research laboratory in California to determine the effect of certain variables on the overall accuracy of the method. The results of the study showed an error factor of plus or minus 50 per cent under the most favorable of measuring conditions. These results were sent to both OSHA and to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. A number of the recommendations contained in the study for improving the accuracy of the method have been incorporated into a soon-to-be-released revised NIOSH operations manual on fiber counting. In the customer relations area, the total effect of negative press publicity and government regulations on industry customers is still today rather poorly defined. Some members of the Association have reported serious problems in this area, while others have experienced few or no difficulties thus far. Where customer problems do exist, they normally fall into one of five categories. First, the customer has thoroughly investigated his situation and has found that he can no longer afford to continue using asbestos or asbestos-containing products, either because the cost of control is too high or because he would have to raise the price of his product to a level that would make it non-competitive with non-asbestos containing substitutes. Second, the customer has not thoroughly investigated his situation and only thinks that he can no longer afford to continue using asbestos. Page 5 - Why Asbestos?/ by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/T1A Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 Third, the customer has read one or more negative articles on asbestos in the public press and has made the snap decision that "we ought to get that dangerous stuff out of our plant." Often, decisions of this nature are forced on top management by illinformed medical advisors or safety and health directors. Fourth, the customer has neither a control problem, nor is he parti cularly afraid of using asbestos in his own plant. However, he is fearful that those of bis competitors -whoso "finished products do net contain asbestos will stress the adverse health effects of asbestos in trying to take business away from him. Custorer fears of this nature are essentially "gut" reactions and am hence extremely difficult to deal with. Fifth, the customer has none of these problems or fears but he has been advised by a government official or inspector that he would be better off if he quit using asbestos or asbestos-containing products in his plant. While this problem does not appear to be widespread, we have learned of a number of situations where it has occurred. Actions of this nature by government officials are totally uncalled for and should be dealt with promptly and decisively. The best solution is to obtain complete details on the incident and then tc register a formal complaint with the offending official's immediate superior or with the government agency involved. The Association's first reaction to the overall customer relations problem was to approve funds for a series of four regional seminars at which industry customers would be given a number of basic presen tations on the various aspects of the asbestos-health problem. The seminars were tentatively scheduled for the Spring of 1973. However, the experiences of a number cf our member companies showed that general "catchall" type seminars of the type originally contemplated would not be effective in dealing with the majority of customer relations problems. In order to do the job properly, it was found that customer presentations have to be tailored to the needs and problems of the individual customer. As a result, the Association cancelled its scheduled series of seminars and instead elected to develop a number of packaged slide presentations on such topics as "The Facts About Asbestos and Health," and "Understanding the OSHA Regulations," which could be used by member companies as part of a tailored presentation to individual customers. As with customer relations, the Association feels that employee relations is a problem best handled by the individual member companies. Thus far, the AIA's sole contribution in this area of industry concern has been to prepare the draft of an Employee Safety and Health Guide on Asbestos-Health. The draft was made available to the member companies for their ovm use and at least one has produced it in booklet form for distribution to all its employees. Page 6 - Why Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 I personally believe that the employee relations aspect of the asbestos-health problem is one that has been sorely neglected by most companies within the industry, and that it could develop into a major problem area in the near future and that steps should be taken now to deal with it. We know that various organized labor groups are planning a full scale campaign to bring their interpre tation of the asbestos-health problem to the attention of asbestos industry employees throughout the nation. If the industry permits this interpretation to be disseminated without rebuttal, the consequences could be grave indeed. Inter-industry relations are best defined as keeping the industry informed about important new developments on the governmental, medical and press relations fronts that affect asbestos. This is accomplished within the AIA by periodic distributions of documents and information to the member companies and to others on our mailing list. The value of this activity can be gauged by the fact that our overall mailing list increased from approximately a dozen names in 1971 to more than 60 a year later. While we have had to trim the list somewhat this year for logistical reasons, we assume from the frequent requests we still receive to be placed on the list that the material we send out is being read and is of considerable value to those receiving it. Next to government affairs, our public relations and publicity activities constitute the single largest consumer of time, effort and money within the Association. Those of you who are familiar with the treatment that asbestos has been receiving in the public press over the years can readily understand why this activity ranks so high on our priority list. What you may not understand are the reasons why cur extensive efforts in dealing with the nation's press have been so unsuccess ful to date in producing the theoretical "balanced" or "positive" story on asbestos and health. The simple fact is that from the standpoint of today's young activist reporter, industry is the bad guy, and nothing we do, say or achieve can ever change this impression. If we spend $100 million dollars on environmental control, the press either says we ought to have done it ten years ago or that we should have spent $200 million. If we sponsor medical research, they say we are trying to buy favorable results. If we are opposed tc ridiculously stringent standards, they say we are in favor of letting our employees die. A television executive in Minneapolis described this new breed of reporter as being "so intent on demolishing the establishment that they would blindly destroy the credibility of the media in the bar gain." Another TV executive, this time in Chicago, stated "they Page 7 - Why Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetnnic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 want to make moral and political and social judgments on their assignments and then take sides. Never mind getting the facts straight." As a result of this "industry is a monster" philosophy, asbestos will remain a hot news item only so long as the news is bad. The "good" that asbestos does in protecting lives and property is of no concern to the press. Likewise, industry efforts to protect workmen and the general public from asbestos exposure will always be given minimal coverage, since such information is directly contrary to the portrait of an irresponsible industry producing a "killer" product that is the sole element of news worthiness in the asbestos story. The press relations battle will therefore he won, not when the media starts to print positive or balanced articles about asbestos, but when the press ceases to print anything about asbestos at all. As long as negative nev/s on asbestos-health continues to be generated, the media will continue to eat it up. The media will only cease to carry such stories when the generation of negative news ceases. It is as simple as that. Positive or balanced stories are a chimera, since they are, by definition, not newsworthy. Let me give you a very specific example of this last principle in action. As most of you already know, the Association is currently engaged in an extensive campaign to interest the trade press in articles on the benefits of asbestos and on industry accomplish ments in the environmental control area. The trade press, unlike the national or public media, is much more receptive to articles of this nature and we expect to be seeing a number of positive stories in the trade press in the next few months. In any case, we also from time to time put out press releases on various subjects relating to asbestos-health. A few weeks ago, we issued a release on the report of the advisory committee on asbestos cancers of the Vtorld Health Organization. In brief, the report concluded that the general public is not in danger from asbestos in the environment. Thus far, we have received nearly two dozen press clippings from trade publications that carried the story. To the best of our knowledge, not a single newspaper, news magazine, radio or TV station, or any other segment of the public media ran the story, with the solitary exception of a French language paper in Toronto. As I said before, if the news is good, the press simply isn't interested. Nonetheless, the Association has no intention of abandoning our efforts vis-a-vis the national media. We will continue to issue appropriate press releases, cooperate with feature writers doing stories on asbestos, write letters to the editor v/hen those stories appear, and in short, do all we can to present the press with a balanced view of the asbestos-health situation. Page 8 - Why Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetonic, AIA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 Our most recent effort in this regard has been the preparation and printing of an Asbestos and Health Information File, which we have nailed to some 3,000 newspapers, magazines, trade publications, radio and TV stations, science writers, etc., across the United States. Basically, the file contains copies of five industry position papers on asbestos and asbestos-health, as well as a number of important medical papers and a pair of photographs illustrating the benefits of asbestos and industry efforts at environmental control. tThile we don't expect our information file to change the whole attitude of the press toward asbestos, wo are hoping that the media will make use of it to accurately report the industry's position when doing stories on the subject. And now, having heard the bad side of the public relations problem, it's time for some good news. And the good news is that despite all the negative articles on asbestos-health that have appeared in the press over the past half dozen years, very few people have been paying attention. Let me explain. In February, the Association undertook a personal interview research survey of the American public to determine its attitude toward asbestos and its awareness of the health issue. The survey was conducted by the Opinion Research Corporation during March and April. More than 2,000 denographically selected Americans were interviewed. Without going into enormous detail, the results show that only 22 per cent of the American public are aware of the health hazards of asbestos, and that 80 per cent of these consider it a hazard only to these who are occupationally exposed. A mere three per cent of those interviewed stated that they considered asbestos a health hazard to the general public, and less than one quarter of one per cent considered it the most dangerous material on the list they were given to choose from. Surprisingly, the college age youths of America are no more aware of the hazards of asbestos than their parents and grandparents. These results should be reassuring to those industry customers whe fear that the general public will stop buying their products because they contain asbestos. Before going on to describe our activities in the government relations area, I think it might be interesting at this point to take a very brief look at the manner in which Dr. Selikoff and his supporters have used his research results to dramatize and exaggerate the seriousness cf the asbestos-health problem. I have two charts which point this out rather conclusively. Page 3 - ,Thy Asbestos?, by ?t. t!. Ewetor.ic, AIA/UA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 The first chart shows the actual results of Dr. Selikoff's four mortality studies of asbestos workers. The numbers in parentheses beside the figures for total number of workers indicate those who have sc far died from all causes. The percentage figures alongside the total number of deaths from asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma are based on the total number of deaths from all causes, not on the number of workers in the study. The most important study of the group is the second, from t'is top, showing the deaths from asbestos-related disease anonq all members of the insulation workers union, regardless of length of exposure. You will note that 34 per cent of those workers who have died, thus far have died, from one of the three asbestos-related diseases. These, than, are the facts Dr. Selikoff works from. This is what he knows from his own investigations, flew let us take a look at what he has done with those figures in order to dramatize the problem. Chart number II 3hovs.Dr. Selikoff's predictions about asbestosrelated deaths in the United States. Without going into details. Dr. Selikoff has arrived at his projections by the simple procedure of multiplying the percentage of deaths from asbestos-related disease among hi9 insulation workers by the total number of employees in the entire industry. You will also note that ha has raised his projected, death estimate to enormous heights over the past year by sinply increasing the base figure of employees exposed, while still retaining the percentage multiplier of 34 per cent being experienced, by the insulation workers, I night point out that thi3 tactic, howevor deceptive, has been an enormous success since each raising of the estimate has earned. Dr. Selikoff correspondingly greater coverage *y the redia. Mo finer example exists of the total gullibility of the press than the manner in :>hich it allowed its prejudices to bo manipulated and played upon in this situation. Please don't get ne wrong. I have no doubt that the insulation workers are in fact dying as rapidly as Dr. Selikoff says they arc. The problem is that he has translated their mortality experience to the rest of the entire industry, which is completely erroneous. In the first place, the estimated numbo.r of employees in the industry is too high -- five times too high to be precise. Even more important, acacrding to an analysis by the Association of more than a dozen mortality studies, including those of Dr. Seli koff, our prediction is that approximately 25,000 past and. present employees in the asbestos industry have died, or will eventually die of asbestos-related disease. This is los3 than one-thirteenth CHART NUMBER I DR. I. J.

In addition, our figures show that 20 cf the 25,000 deaths -- or 80% -- will occur among those in the insulation trades. bhile these estimates should te reassuring tc those in the mining and manufacturing areas cf the industry, wo should not forget that 5,000 of our workmen are still going to die of asbestos-related disease and that, all things considered, there is absolutely nothing that we can do to prevent it. The only thing "e can do is to clean up our plants to assure that those entering the industry in the future will not have the same experience. Within the past year and a half, the main thrust cf Association effort has shifted to the government affairs front. The principal agencies in Washington with which we have been dealing are the Occupational Safety and Health Administration; the Environmental Protection Agency; the Food and Drug Administration; the Bureau of `lines; and, to a lesser degree, the national Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, and the "ational Institutes of Health, both of which are mainly involved in research efforts. In addition, a few weeks ago we v;ere contacted by the Federal Trade Commission, which had received a petition from the Center for Science in the Public Interest requesting an investigation of consumer uses of asbestos for the purpose of determining whether certain products ought to be labeled as hazardous and whether warnings should be required on all advertisements for those pro ducts. On the basis of a preliminary meeting with an investigator from the FTC it would appear that we have little to worry about in this particular area. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has been of enormous concern to the industry over the past IS months. As nest of you already know, the Association expended tremendous efforts during the six month period leading to the promulgation of last June's 05HA standards on asbestos. I think it is a gauge of the effectiveness of the total industry involvement in this most crucial matter that of eleven main reouiroments in the standards, the industry position wa3 accented totally by OSKA on nine of the eleven, about fifty per cent on a tenth, and totally rejected on only one. OSHA is now planning to redo the standard package and we are work ing closely with then on this project. The first step will be the formation of a 15 man advisory committee to review the current standards and any additional medical and technical data that has become available in the year since the standards were promulgated. Torking in cooperation with nine ether trade associations we have selected four individuals as industry-wide recommendations to OSKA for the four so-called "employer" spots on the advisory committee. Page 11 - JThy Asbestos?, by M. M. Swetcnic, MA/NA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 In discussing the formation of the advisory committee with John O'Neill cf the OCHA Standards Development Section, we were asked to add a couple of names tc the list so that OS!LA would have more of a selection to choose fron. This we have agreed to do. The committee 'dll be given up to nine months to complete its deliberations and. prepare for OSHA a revised standard package. This will bo followed by public hearings, approximately a year from now. Ve do not expect to 3ee a new standard promulgated before the Fall of 1974. It is of course impossible to determine at this tire what the now standards will look like, however, I "culd venture to say that they will certainly net he less strict than the ones we have today, although they will probably be less confusing and leave less room for employer interpretation. Something will unques tionably be done to improve the current difficulties with the monitoring requirements. The nain function cf the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health is to conduct research and to prepare so-called Criteria Packages, which are essentially recommendations to OSHA for stan dards on various materials, chemicals and activities. Such a package on asbestos was prepared by `TIOSH at the tine of the OSHA proceedings last year. iTIOSK will not be preparing a new or revisecriteria package for the upcoming review of the asbestos standards. I do not believe it would be unfair to say that of all the agen cies in Washington dealing with asbestos, Dr. Selikoff has had his greatest influence on the young idealistic scientists and doctors at 11I0SH. Consequently, industry influence is weakest in this agency. It was IIIOSII, after all, that made the original recommen dation for a two fiber standard in the United States asbestos industry. flext to OSHA, the Environmental Protection Agency has the greatest potential cf any federal agency for adversely affecting the future of the asbestos industry in this country, not only is the EPA responsible for developing and enforcing air and water pollution standards, but the Toxic Substances Control Act, now pending in Congress, will also become an EPA function after passage. For this reason, I am pleased to be able to say that the asbestos industry has an excellent relationship with the EPA. Ho finer proof of this exists than the fact that there was not a single major industry recommendation made to the EPA at the public hear ings on the proposed asbestos emission regulations that was not accepted either in toto or in principle in the final standards, which were published in early April of this year. We are presently working with the EPA on the development of waste water effluent standards for asbestos manufacturing plants. TTc Page 12 - ''hy Asbestos?, by M.. M. r>"ctrnic, AIA/WA Presented to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - f/7/7 3 certainly hope that those standards will turn out to be as reason able as the air pollution regulations. Tho prop-sec1 effluent standards are scheduled to be published in the Tad-oral Register scretir.o this Sumer, to be followed by public hearings, with the final standards being promulgated in thn Fall, perhaps as early as October. " r,'e are also planning, in the near future, to neet in Washington with representatives fron the standards development and enforcement branches of the EPA to discuss with then questions of interpretation and compliance policy v/ith regard to the new air pollution regulations. Te have already resolved cne interpretation question that is of special interest to the asbestos textile industry. Approximately two weeks ago I was asked, by a member conpany of the Association to find out whether the ZPA was planning to require the manufac turers of asbestos safety clothing to register as potential emission sources under the lav/. In discussing the situation over the phone v/ith EPA compliance officials, I argued that the producers of asher.tcs safety clothing were net manufacturers as defined in the regulations but were instead only fabricators ot an asbestos product, and. as such, should not have to register as potential emission sources. After cur phone conversation ended, a brief meeting was held among the EPA compliance pecple. I was then called back and informed that they agreed with me that the safety clothing producers should not be required to register. !7hile this rather minor problem took approximately an hour and a half and two or three phone calls to resolve, it is indicative of the type of day-to-day services that the Association provides for its member companies. Over the past year the Food and Drug Administration has shown an increased interest in asbestos ns a possible hazardous contaminant in various foods, beverages and. drugs. Late in 1972 they set up an asbestos task force to review the situation and to propose regula tions and guidelines where appropriate. Thus far they have concentrated their efforts in two areas^ -- on tho use of asbestos-contaminated talc in food packaging and in cosmetics, and secondly, on the use of asbestos celuloso filter pads in the beverage and drug industries. In our first mooting with the EDA ta3k. force last 'Jcvember on the filter problem, they demonstrated and admitted to an appalling ignorance about the health hazards of asbestos. Since then, they have gotten one heck of a lot smarter, due at least in part tc the tremendous amount of data and information which the Association Page 13 - Hhy Asbestos?, by M. 11. Swotonic, AIA/UA TresenteU to the ATI at Arlington, Virginia - 6/7/73 has been supplying to then. As a consequence, the FDA is today less panicky about asbestos and therefore less likely to propose foolish, unsuppnrta.ble regulations, Dnckasnen from the TO/, have, ir. fact, defended the filter industry against cr.vironr.entalist attache in the press and elsewhere in recent months. This is, quite obviously, a healthy sign. Our activities in the area of Congressional relations have been quite nininal to date, although we are preparino for the upcomino struggle in Congress over \*orknen's compensation reform, at which tine asbestos is unquestionably going to be racked over the coals by Dr. Fdikoff and by representatives cf organized, lab^r. Unfortunately, the Association has neither the manpower nor the time to embark on a full-scale legislative information program. He have met on occasion with the legislative and legal assistants to various Senators who have attacked asbestos, however much more needs to be done in this area and I an afraid individual member conpanins are going tc have to be the prime ball carriers and not the Association. For essentially the sane reason, our government activities at the state and local level have declined to essentially zero over the past year and a half. This has not been too serious a deficiency as most of the authority of the cities and states in asbestos con trol has been usurped by various Federal regulatory agencies, nonetheless, more individual company activity is required, at these levels of government. In conclusion, I think ve can ail be justifiably pleased with what we have been able tc accomplish in the past few years in resolving the cornucopia cf interrelated problems that constitute the asbestos-health situation. Our plants are cleaner and our workmen better protected. The gene ral public has been shown tc be in no danger from asbestos, if it ever was. Hhile we have been regulated extensively, fer the most part tho standards that have been developed have not been as bad as we feared they might be, and in some cases they turned out far bet ter them we ever dared hope. In addition, while vc are still taking cur lumps in the public press, the not effect of all this adverse publicity has been shown to be surprisingly small. Ue have sweated a lot and we have groaned a let, but we are still standing and we are still viable. I senso today "ithin tho indus try a greater faeling of confidence in the future than at any time in the past faw years. But we must not rest contented. He must remember that Dr. Selikoff has to date been far less suc cessful than our industry has in influencing the decisions of the various governmental regulatory agencies. This will make him try Minutes GENERAL MEETING Asbestos Textile Institute OCT 5 1973 ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE Annual Meeting October 5, 1973 Wychraere Harbor Club, Harwichport, Massachusetts In Attendance AMATEX CORPORATION w.

Not worth of the ATI as of the end of the Fiscal Year was $16,144.79. The full Report is attached to these Minutes. S. J. Peele moved the Report be accepted. The motion was seconded by E. W. Russell and so voted, unanimously. 6. The President expressed genuine pleasure on the success of the meeting and on such a fine attendance c-f 6$ in tote, including approximately 24 wives. 2. The President asked the members to mark their calendars and to plan to attend the following future meetings, as scheduled by the ATI: Feb 7-3, Jun 6-7, Sep 25-27, Feb 6-7, Oct 1-3, 1974 1974 1974 1975 1975 - Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina; - Twin Bridges Marriott, Washington, D.C.; - The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia; - Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia,Pa; - Fonte Vedra Club, Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida Feb 5-6, 1976 - New Orleans Marriott, New Orleans, Louisiana. 8. Subsequent to advising the membership that the Institute had. graciously accepted the generous invitation by the five ATI mining companies tc. visit Canada for the June 1975 General Meeting, Presi dent Scowcrcft called William J. W. Smith, of Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd., tc the podium. On behalf of Asbestos Corporation Ltd., Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd., Canadian Johns-Manville Co. Ltd., Cassiar nore Page 3 ^TI Annual Meeting' 10/5/73 Asbestos Corporation Ltd., and Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd., Mr. Smith cordially invited the ATI to join them in June 1975 in Quebec City. Included will be a cne-day side trip to Thetford to visit the mines. The meeting will be held on a Thursday and a Friday and fish ing arrangements will be made for Monday, Tuesday and part of Wednes day at some spot just north of Quebec City. The miners will want to know sometime in 1974 how many men are interested in the fishing trip 2.. It was announced by President Scowcroft that the guest speaker at the February 1974 meeting in Charleston, South Carolina, will be Mr. Chain Robbins, newly-appointed Senior Adviser to John Stender and head of the new office of Occupational Health, OSH/.. He will be accompanied by Lewis J. Cox, who recently was named special Assistant for Industry Liaison, OSH/.. 10. Eugene J. Leff, of Cadwnlader, Wickersham & Taft, presented Remarks of Legal Counsel. The full text of his remarks is attached hereto. Mr. Leff discussed the recent decision in Telex Corporation v. International Business Machines Corporation and the question of whether suits against monopolization penalize excellence of manage ment of large corporations. 11. The Fiber Producers' Report was presented by E. A. Farrell, Sales Manager, Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd. Mr. Farrell stated that in 1972 the United States .again was the largest importer of textile spinning fiber from Canada -- 13,700 tons. The United Kingdom and Yugoslavia followed. Yugoslavia is a new large consumer of spinning fiber. Canada shipped 29,000 tons of spinning fiber throughout the world, compared with 30,000 to 22 countries in 1971. The supply of Quebec spinning fiber is good but lcng grades from Cassiar are in short supply. The complete report is attached hereto...............Mr. Farrell compared an AIA/NA report cn the breakdown of asbestos usage in the U.S. vs a similar report from Industrial Minerals magazine giving world figures. In the U.S., textile fiber consumed 3$ of the total tonnage, floor tile consumed 13$ and asbestos-cement products, 25$. A different distribution, based on world consumption, was given by IM and included a percentage of 10$ for floor tile and 70$ for asbestos-cement products (a really big difference from the AIA/NA figures). Following a comment from the floor by R. A. Clifton, U.S. Bureau of Mines, it was agreed the 70$ world usage of the asbestoscement products category is quite high, although it could partly be attributed to the increase in construction in the developing countries. It was also stated that the 70$ figure was the same as that given last year by IM, leaving cne to ponder if new percentage figures had been compiled for the latest IM report. 12. The following reports of ATI activities at Committee level were presented by the respective Chairmen to the general membership. A copy of each Report is attached hereto, i.c-.: Air Hygiene Sc Manufacturing - B. E. Carden, Chairman; Asbestos Advisory - E. W. Russell, Chairman; Technical - J. W. Echerd, Chairman; Page 4 - ATI Annual Meeting -- 10/5/73 Fiber Research & Testing - C. E. Stiefken, Chairman; Environmental Health - L. F. Dieringer, Chairman. R. A. Clifton added to Mr. Carden's report by stating that at present it does not appear that the Environmental Protection Agency has any great concern over any asbestos that may be in the water effluent from manufacturing plants. Also, there is no . proof that asbestos in water is harmful. 13. The following announcements were made by President Scowcroft: a. The ATI was deeply saddened by the demise of George S. Fabsl, on Sunday, September 23, 1973; b. Re-elected as Officers of the ATI for the ensuing year were M. Q. Scowcroft, President; A. Kuzmuk, Vice-President; and E. A. Morris, Treasurer. c. Asberit S.A., Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was unanimously approved by the Board of Governors as a new Class D Associate Member. d. The Asbestos Information Association/North America has relo cated to Suite 610, 1660 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036 (Telephone: 202 223 4885). Its new Executive Director is Robert H. Mereness, formerly a public relations consultant in the Washington, D.C., area. Matthew M. Swetonic, the previous Executive Secretary, has joined Hill & Knowlton's Environmental Affairs Department in New York City. He will serve in a consulting capacity to the AIA/NA for a year or so. 14. President Scowcroft "introduced, as the featured speaker, Alison D. McDonald, M.D., D.P.H., Associate Professor, Department of Epidemiology and Health, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec. He stated that Dr. McDonald has an educational and medically-professional background that makes one stand in awe. She is of British nationality and a Canadian citizen. Formal education includes the University of London Medical School, London School of Hygiene Sc. Tro pical Medicine, and a graduate student and Research Assistant, Department of Epidemiology, Harvard University. She holds seven ad vance degrees and is author or co-author of 45 papers. 15. The full text of Dr. McDonald's comprehensive and well-executed presentation, entitled "Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience," is attached to these Minutes. 16. There being no further business to be brought before the member ship, E. A. Morris moved for adjournment. The motion was seconded by A. Kuzmuk and unanimously approved by the attending members, and the meeting was adjourned at 10:30 A.M.

Dieringer The Committee had another good meeting and discussions included visits to four asbestos textile plants by the National Institutes for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH); plant inspections by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA); and noise controls. The main purpose of the NIOSH visit was to observe and discuss en gineering controls and work practices directed at reducing the levels of asbestos fibers to which the workers are exposed in textile operations; also, to check fiber counts previously taken in all op erations plus any data relating to a particular control cr practice that produces a definite reduction in fiber counts. While touring the plants, the NIOSH people made sketches of the various ventilation systems associated with the textile operations in all departments. The NIOSH group planned to take some air velo city measurements at major exhaust hoods and make some limited personal air sampling. However, this was not done at the Hogans- ville, Georgia, facility. It is the Committee's understanding that the NIOSH people have selected two of the four plants visited to conduct approximately 600 dust counts derived from eight cne-hour studies on fifteen people per day for one week. Additional one-week studies will be made in October following the initial week's visit. Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, NIOSH has the responsibility of conducting research for new occupational safety and health standards. NIOSH's recommendations aro transmitted to mere.. Page 2 - Minutes of the ATI Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee - 10/4/73 the U.S. Department of Labor which has the responsibility for the final setting, promulgation and enforcement of the standards. While we cannot be sure, it is generally felt that NIOSH is conduct ing the above-mentioned studies for use by the soon-to-be-constituted 15-member Review Board, when reviewing the existing Asbestos Stand ard. Hopefully, the result will be a more realistic Standard. From one recent OSHA inspection, machine guarding, exposed horizontal shafting and signs for electrical equipment were the only items listed for correction. This plant was given a period from one week to 30 days to make the proper corrections and received only two very light penalties. Only dust counts were made during an inspection at another plant. While it is generally felt that the initial impact from OSHA is behind us, we cannot afford to "let up" from doing everything pos sible to comply with the standards. However, OSHA is awa.re of the vast amount of improvement that is being accomplished by all plants toward the safety and health of their employees. Present noise levels above 90 decibels require the use of protective ear plugs. However, there is some indication the 90 decibel-level may be lowered to 85. This is an area where OSHA may take a closer look in the future. It is felt that more work will be necessary to reduce noise levels and to eliminate the use cf ear plugs. In one plant, an employee who is not wearing ear plugs in a work area with noise over 90 decibels is given an oral warning; the second time, a 3-day send-out; the third time, a week send-out; and the fourth time, a discharge.

Peele Asbestos Textile Institute - D. M. Fagan There was considerable discussion by the Committee concerning the economic philosophy that exists today; that is, one of shortages and increased demands fpr all materials in the economy, the trend toward world demand and'the ability to buy the materials and how these conditions affect the asbestos textile industry. The publicity that asbestos receives is always a topic of discussion by the Committee. There was a general consensus of opinion that in spite of the adverse publicity directed at asbestos, the demand for asbestos textile products is continuing to increase. However, the industry must continue to make progress wherever possible, not just to avoid further criticism, but to continually improve upon its products and to reduce industrial health and safety hazards for its employees.

Three of the five participating laboratories have completed the tests. All inter-laboratory testing is expected to be completed by January 1, 1974. Revision of aSTM Standards for Asbestos Cloth (D1571), Asbestos Tape (D315) and Asbestos Tubular Sleeving (D626) will be undertaken next. The Precision and Accuracy of each Standard will be determined by a Round Robin Test. ASTM Committee D-13 is scheduled to meet in New York City October 15 19, 1973. Subcommittee D13.14 will be represented by Messrs. P. 0. Nicodemus and W. Maaskant on alternate days. The- Johns-Manville Tumbler Test procedure will be pursued as a means to determine the relative dustiness of various asbestos products. Five-hundred dollars ($500.00) has been budgeted for the project. A location for the Tester will be determined at a later date. J. W. Hawkins, of Raybestos-Manhattan Inc., will investigate and recommend possible sites. The Shaker Test was discussed as an alternate to the Tumbler Test method. No action was taken. Proposed revisions to MIL-I-3053E, Insulation, Electrical, AsbestosFiber, Treated and Untreated, were reviewed. Committee recommenda tions will be submitted to the Military Custodian by the Committee Chair-man prior to October 15, 1973. Respectfully submitted, J. W.

C. Bratt and L. F. Dieringer) sat in on the discussions of the nir Hygiene and Manufacturing Committee. As of meeting time, the following is the status of various proposed OSHA health standards which are of interest to member companies: 1) Asbestos - A Department of Labor Standards Advisory Committee has not been selected to consider revision to the present Standard There is some indication that the DOL will by-pass use of this Committee and publish a proposed revised Standard in the Federal Register and then follow with the usual hearing and enactment process; 2) Noise - A revised standard is expected to be issued in the near future. It appears that the present 90 dBA limit fer daily eighthour exposure will be retained, that hearing testing will be required whore exposure exceeds 85 dBA, and that the definition of engineering control will be changed to include practical and economic considerations. This indicated latter change is import ant and it gets away from the strict present concept that if the noise can b$ engineered cut, it must be, without considering other factors; 3) Heat Stress - The Standards Advisory Committee is still consid ering a standard on heat stress. There are indications that because of the many controversies over the various provisions of the standard, it may be allowed to die on the vine. Of interest is a recent law suit in which an industrial worker's law suit against six firms which manufactured the asbestos-containing products he installed, was upheld by a Circuit Court of Appeals. The case, Borel v. Fiberboard Paper Products Corporation, resulted from a suit involving a worker who died from lung cancer which the court said resulted from his work with asbestos over a 33-year period. The worker's complaint was based on the failure of the manu facturers of asbestos with which he worked to warn that their product could be dangerous to the ultimate user. The judge, in the court opinions, said that since the dangers of asbestos were known to the medical community since 1924, the manufacturers had a duty to inform purchasers and ultimate users of the product's inherent dangers, which they had not done. Recent articles of interest are: 1) "Improved Techniques of Identification and Determination of rtirborn Asbestos," L. Bartosiewicz, American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal 34, page 252, June 1973; 2) "Asbestos," National Safety News 1G8, page 54, August 1973. Respectfully submitted, L. F. Dieringer, Chairman REMARKS OF LEGAL COUNSEL Asbestos Textile Institute Annual Meeting October 5, 1973, Harwichport, Massachusetts Two weeks ago the business community experienced a shock wave pro duced by a federal court in an antitrust suit. I suppose that busi nessmen have become amply aware of the significance of the law in business affairs. But when I.B.M. was ordered to pay Telex $352-1/2 million, even the lawyers were amazed. Judge A. Sherman Christensen, sitting in Tulsa, Oklahoma, ruled on September 17, 1973, that the International Business Machines Corpora tion illegally monopolized the market for "plug compatible peripheral equipment'' comprising such items as memories, tape devices and printers that plug directly into the main processing units of compu ters. The suit by Telex is one of several brought against the giant of the computer industry. The Antitrust Division of the Federal Government is going directly for the jugular, suing I.B.M. in New York for monopolizing the market for general-purpose digital computers. Other suits have been brought by Controlled Data Corp., Greyhound Computer Leasing Corp., and others. One body of opinion considers this series of cases to be an unwar ranted attack on bigness itself. I.B.M. is being sued according to this view, simply because it has obtained a large share of the computer market, and the plaintiffs are oblvious to the natural and even praiseworthy reasons for I.B.M.'s growth. The law, however, does not make bigness alone illegal. The Sherman Act, Section 2, makes monopolization illegal, not the mere possession of monopoly power. ''Monopolization" is a technical legal term which includes bigness plus an intent to acquire a monopoly. A suit based on monopelization can succeed only if it is proven, first, that the defendant possesses monopoly power in a particular market, and, second, that it has obtained or maintained this power through willful action, such as anti-competitive pricing practices rather than through the excellence of its products or management. To differentiate excellence of management from willful exclusion of competitors is, of course, extremely difficult. Professor Martin Shubick, an economist at Yale and formerly of I.B.M., has said that the question is so difficult in the Government's suit against I.B.M., for example, that if he were offered a high enough consulting fee, he would be willing to work for either side in the suit in "perfect comfort and utter objectivity." Nevertheless, the Supreme Court of the United States believes that the distinction can be made and that serious legal consequences may properly result. In the case of United States v. Grinnoll Corp., 3S4 U.S. 563, 570-71 (1966), the Supreme Court stated that: more Page 2 Remarks of Legal Counsel - /TI Annual Meeting - 1C/5/73 "The offense of monopoly under E2 of the Sherman Act has two elements: (1) the possession of monopoly power in the relevant market and (2) the willful acqui sition or maintenance of that power as distinguished from growth or development as a consequence of a superior product, business acumen, or historic accident." This statement of the law reflects a very widely held sense of fair ness. Why should the enterprise that Thomas J. Watson, Sr. built up be penalized, and even split up as the Justice Department would like, if only the best business techniques were the cause of its success? In a letter to the Editor of The New York Times Magazine, printed on August 19, 1973, an anonymous I.B.M. employee wrote of I.B.M.'s record of technological achievement, stating that "... hard-headed businessmen buy I.B.M. products because of superior performance and service. I.B.M. has been able to aspire to this kind of superiority and keep ahead of its competitors by motivating its employees to regard excellence as a worthwhile goal. . . VThy, then, penalize excellence by trying to 'break-up I.B.M.'?" (p.64) Judge Christensen, for one, has reached the conclusion that I.B.M.'s success is due to some less commendable practices as well. He found that I.B.M. tried to "substantially constrain or destroy its plug peripheral competition by predatory pricing actions and by market strategies bearing no relationship to technological skill, industry, appropriate foresight or customer benefit." Situations of monopoly may arise in various ways. They may result, on the one hand, innocently from the supremacy of the monopolist as victor in a race of competition, by reason of his technical superior ity, or his ownership of an important patent. Monopoly may develop, on the other hand, from the absorption of competitors in an illegal merger. Or monopoly can emerge by driving competitors out of busi ness, by putting deliberate business impediments in their path, cr by combining or conspiring with competitors. Clearly, an unlawful monopoly exists if monopoly power has been established or maintained by m^ans of restraints of trade which would in themselves be illegal under the Sherman Act. Also, if there is proof that the defendant's business policy, his subjective intent, is to acquire or to keep a monopoly position, the law is violated. However, Judge Learned Hand has said that ". . . no. monopolist monopolizes unconscious of what he is doing." Aluminum Co. of America v. United States. 14& F.2d 416, 432 (2d Cir. 1945). Therefore, some business practices will lead the courts to conclude that the company involved must necessarily have intended to acquire a monopoly. In fact, it is very difficult for a company which possesses monopoly newer to prove that it did not, intonrt to monopolize. It is required mere.. Page 3 -- Remarks of Legal Counsel - TI Annual Meeting - 10/5/73 to come forward with substantial evidence that the monopoly was "thrust upon" it. /.Icon raised this defense in 1945, but it was rejected by Judge Hand, who stated that: "It was not inevitable that it (Alcoa) should always anticipate increases in the demand for ingot and be prepared tc supply them. Nothing compelled it to keep doubling and redoubling its capacity before ethers entered the field." (148 F.2d at 431.) Very little indeed is required to show that the monopolist intended to obtain a monopoly. In 1953 the United Shoe Machinery Corp. was held liable for illegal monopolization. United States v. United Shoe Machinery Corp., 110 F.Supp. 295 (D. Mass. 1953). afffd per curiam. 347 U.S. 521 (1954). Its monopoly of machines used in manufacturing shoes was found to have been obtained in part through a system of leasing and not sell ing its machines. The District Court held that the lease-only and certain other practices "... represent something more than the use of accessible resources, the process of invention and innovation, and the employment of those techniques of employment, financing, production, and distribution, which a compe` titive society must foster. They are.contracts, arrangements, and policies which, instead of encouraging competition based upon pure merit, further the dominance of a particular firm. In this sense, they are unnatural barriers; they unnecessarily exclude actual and potential competition; they restrict a free market." 110 F. Supp. at 344-45. Some of the cases referred to above have been misunderstood at times to suggest that a company which has monopoly power may become liable for unlawful monopolization merely by being active, enterprising and dynamic. Such a view implies that the safest course for large companies is passive stagnation, with a gradual loss of market share -- a business policy directly at odds with the aims of antitrust law This, however, is not the teaching of the cases referred to. Enter prise alone is not penalized; the maintenance of monopoly power by policies intended to discourage, impede or even prevent the rise of new competitors is where the courts have drawn the line. Returning to the recent judgment against I.B.M. for more than a third of a billion dollars, the court's opinion reveals that I.B.M. adopted certain practices which, according to the Judge, were "directed not at competition in an appropriate competitive sense, but at competitors and their viability as such." Among these were the bundling of prices of I.B.M.'s memories with its central process ing units, that is, charging a single price for both items, and more... Page 4 Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI Annual Meeting - 10/5/73 predatory pricing. Therefore, the District Court in the Telex case held the conviction that it was not penalizing excellence as such, or even bigness. Although the standards governing the illegality of monopolies are, in my opinion, fair and economically beneficial, their application to any particular company is a mystery to all outside observers because of the factual complexity of such cases. The number of dollars involved in the I.B.M. judgment is almost equaled by the number of documents, let alone testimony of witnesses, which are involved in this type of litigation. We all can take com fort in the fact that even though we do not have $352-1/2 million to lose, neither must we endure a suit based on monopolization. Thank you very much for your attention. Eugene J.

McDonald, M.D. , D.P.H. Department of Epidemiology and Health McGill University, Montreal, Quebec Presented to the Asbestos Textile Institute at its Annual Meeting held October 5, 1973, at Wychmere Harbor Club, Harwichport, Mass. What are the health risks associated with working with asbestos In quantitative and qualitative terms -- What is the relationship between amount and type of exposure and amount and type of disease? Although a great deal of research has been done on the subject, the picture is still fairly imcomplete because the main evidence has to come from observations on man -- on people who are known to have been exposed to the mineral. Other investigations, such as animal experiments, do a lot to add to the picture but the evidence basically depends on what disease occurs in man and with what ex posures. It is complicated, as you realize, by the different varieties of fibers, and because each fiber type may affect health differently. But I will try to give you some picture of the present state of knowledge, which is, on the one hand, complicated, and on the other, uncertain. Slide 1 shows the main types and quantities of asbestos pro duced and the time period over which they have been produced. It also shows the different uses for the mineral. The first hazard to be observed was asbestosis. In quantita tive terms -- What is the risk of contracting asbestosis? How much dust exposure, and over how long a period of time, is necessary before there is a risk of getting asbestosis? The matter is still rather poorly assessed, except in the study we have been doing in Quebec where we do now have, for chrysotile mining, a fairly good picture of the amount of exposure which will give rise to asbestosis. It appears that all types of fibers and all types of processes (all industrial groups) are at risk of asbestosis. The problem really lies in lung cancer. There are two main cancers that are associated with asbestos -- lung cancer, which is really indistinguishable from the lung cancer that smoking can give you; and mesothelioma, which is a very rare tumor that involves the surface of the lung and the lining of the abdominal cavity. A very definite connection has been observed between asbestos exposure and mesothelioma. *The only slides available for reproducing in this wi'ittveu account are shown as Tables 2 through 9. more Page 2 _ Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? TABLE I Main Industrial Groups and Fiber Exposure Mining Manu facture Insu lation Chrvsotile + ++? Not Known Crocidolite ++? Amosite Anthonhvllite + Mixes N/A Not Known Not Known ++ Not Known Not Known ++ ++ -H- Table I. I'm proposing to look at this in three main industrial groups: mining, manufacture and insulation -- and at the fiber types concerned, i.e., chrysotile, the three main amphiboles, and mixed fiber exposures. Unfortunately, the latter group is the most common. When we started our studies in Quebec, it was known that very substantial risks of lung cancer and mesothelioma were found in the manufacturing processes and in people working with insulation. This is particularly true for mesothelioma which is very rare and only occurs in one out of a million population -- and yet a substantial number of cases are found with certain asbestos exposures. Substantial health risks in terms of mesothelioma and lung cancer have been well documented for mixed fiber exposures. When we began our studies in Quebec, there was little evidence of a serious problem in the Chrysotile mining industry. It was, therefore, very important to look at groups of people who were exposed to only one type of fiber. So we started investi gating all persons who had ever been employed in the Quebec chrysotile-producing industry. The main objective, apart from studying pure Chrysotile exposure, was to determine the dose re sponse relationship; that is to say, to try to get some precise information about what exposures could be sustained without a significant risk to health, and at what level was there a significant amount of disease. As you know, the two main asbestos mining areas in Quebec are Asbestos and Thetford Mines. Slide 2 is a photograph of Canadian Johns-Manville's Jeffrey Mine at Asbestos. Slide 3 is a picture of Smith Street, in Thetford, which is indicative of the extensive environmental exposure to people, locally. Slide 4. In starting our survey, we obtained personnel records of all of the people who ever had worked in the mines and mills. YJe documented all cf their jobs, recorded as well as possible the amount of dust to which they had been exposed, and allowed for the time during which they had been exposed to these levels. We then divided all of those people into groups, according to the amount of dust exposure. more ?ag= 3 _ Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience?

If you take a lifetime of 50 years of employment, the last group on the right would be equivalent to exposure to an average of at least 15 million particles per cubic foot. This is a very heavily exposed group and, of course, such exposures have only happened in the past and do not occur at the present time. Dr. Graham Gibbs, of the Department of Epidemiology and Health, has been studying the corre lation between fiber counts and particle counts and we do not find sufficient correlation between the two to give our findings in terms of fiber counts. For this reascn and because all epidemiological information is in terms of particle counts, we consider that these should continue to be used until fiber counts have been done for a long period of time. We do not have any direct information about fiber levels in terms of risks of disease. One cf the three major studies we undertook was of all men born between 1891 and 1920, to study causes of death and what their death rates were in various dust categories. We did an x-ray study in order to determine which dust groups showed an increased incidence of x-ray changes and at what level the increase started. This, of course, was important evidence of disease. Laboratory equipment was moved down to the mining areas and 1000 men were submitted to detailed lung function studies, again to see what the relationship was between the amount of chrysotile dust to which the men had been exposed and changes in their lung function.

For respira tory cancers, which includes malignant pleural mesothelioma of which there were very few cases in the industry, a rise is clearly present in the 400 to 800+ dust groups with an exposure (to an average con centration of 8 mpcf over 50 years). The rise probably does begin a little earlier. The highest dust group, which as we said was very heavily exposed, has about 3 times as much respiratory cancer as do the people with minimal exposure (the less than 10 group). The latter group includes people such as those working in clerical jobs and who have virtually no exposure to asbestos. But having informa tion for both groups gave us a population with which to compare the people who were substantially exposed to dust. There was also some 'indication that abdominal cancers were related to dust exposure. You will see a higher amount of abdominal cancers in the 400 to 800 and the 800+ groups. The same experience has been observed in other studies. It is by no means certain that this is directly due to asbestos since there are ether possible explanations. You will see that the rise in asbestosis occurs at around the 200 dust level, indicating an equivalent of an average of 5 mpcf over 50 years. Table IV/Slide 9. What is thought to be significant disease is irregular small opacities of grade 2/1. For those cases we observed that a significant increase occurred in the 100 to 200 dust group. We conclude, that for a lifetime exposure, an average of 2 mpcf gives rise to radiological change indicative of significant disease in 1% of persons. Slide 10. In lung function tests in cigarette smokers and non smokers, the first change occurred in the capacity to breath in and this started with low levels cf dust exposure. But a 10$ deficit in breathing capacity occurred at about the same level as the radiolo gical changes that I just talked about -- at the l^vel of about 2 mpcf on average over a lifetime. more Page 5 Chrysotile How Reassuring the Mining Experience?

Table V/Slide 11. Lastly, the workers were asked to fill in a questionnaire about smoking. From the answers, we found that there was a relationship between breathlessness and dust exposure not apparently affected by smoking. But if you look at bronchitis and along the line for the "never smoked" and the two grouos cf smokers, you will note there wasn't any change in bronchitis which increased asbestos dust exposure. Now, if you lock at the columns vertically you will see that smoking does a lot of damage in terms of bronchitis TABLE VI Distribution of Cases of Mesothelioma bv Year of Death a rd Province Ti9To-i'970] I960 1961 1962 1963 1964 1965 1966 1967 1968 1969 1970 Annual Incidence Per Million Popu lation 1966-1970 Ontario 0 1 4 9 6 7 8 6 7 12 "59 Quebec 6 6 4 3 8 7 14 13 18 7 16 102 1.2 2.3 Other Provinces 9 3 5 7 3 5 9 6 7 6 ' "65 Canada 15 10 13 19 17 19 31 25 32 25 --JO 236 0.9 1.4 Reviewed by Pathology Panel 57 80 47 194 Accepted as Mesothelioma 71% 42 % 57% 55% Table Vi/Slide 12 . The othe:r study we did was to survey all mesotheliomas in Canada. At the outset, I should say we had just 5 mesotheliomas out cf 3270 deaths in the mining industry. Although this may seem to you to be a small number, there should be no cases of mesothelioma in a general population. One of the problems about mesothelioma is the diagnosis. There is by no means agreement among pathologists about the diagnosis of mesothelioma; so our finding of 5, having searched pretty thoroughly for mesotheliomas, may well be an over-estimate, especially because they were particularly looked for in people with known asbestos dust exposure. Having found very few in the industry, we did a concurrent study -- locating all the mesotheliomas we could in Canada. We obtained from all pathologists reports about all known cases and feel we got fairly full ascertain ment. The ascertainment wasn't done until 1967-68. If you lock at the graph at the top (Table VI) you will see a gradual rise in the annual number cf mesotheliomas across Canada up to 1966. This is more Shays'til. -- How he assuring the .'lining Zxpori _r. C - ? probably due to poor memory and lack of knowledge about mesotheliomas in these earlier years. We are continuing this surveillance, and between 1966 and 1970 there doesn't appear to have been any change. This is rather a short period of time and we obviously need to know whether this "no change" situation will continue, as you know, the big concern is the lengthy latent period for mesothelioma to develop and the widely expressed fear that we are now going to reap results from exposures which occurred 20-30 years ago and that the rate of mesotheliomas may rise. We now feel quite happy that a fairly good base line has been established for this surveillance and we shall be able to know within the next few years what is happening in Canada. If you look at the bottom line (Table VI), we looked to see whether mesothelioma occurred mere in one part of Canada than in other sections cf the country. There was, in fact, more in Quebec -- over 2 per million population, compared with just over one in Ontario and slightly less than one in the rest of Canada. But we must revert to the question of the diagnosis. When the mesotheliomas were submitted tc patholo gists, a much lower proportion was accepted as mesothelioma Dy the pathologists' panel -- not only in Quebec but in all of Canada. It looks as though, for cases that are accepted by the panel as mesotheliomas, there is little or no difference in the various parts of Canada.

Table VUI/Slide 14. We compared the cases that we found with other cases of cancer from the same hospita.l, by inquiries to their relatives about their occupational histories. We then categorized the occupational histories as having either definite, probable, possible or unlikely exposure to asbestos. For both males and fe males, the mesothelioma series and the control series represent what happened to the people who did not get mesothelioma but perhaps had a similar type of death. You will note that only 2C% of the male mesotheliomas in Canada had a definite cr probable history of exposure to asbestos. There was no evidence that possible exposures were associated with mesothelioma because the controls included a similar number. For women who were found to have mesotheliomas, asbestos appeared to be almost non-existent as a causative factor. W simply do not know, as yet, what factors ca.use these mesotheliomas. Table IX/Slide 15. When we analyzed the occupations that in volved asbestos exposure, we again had cases and controls. You can see that in mining and milling there was an excess in the cases compared with the controls. However, we found the manufacture of asbestos products and insulation work in Canada appeared to be the main causes of mesothelioma. Wo found none of these occupations in the controls. Mining and milling of chrysotile was associated with mesothelioma, but compared with the ether occupations (insulation & manufacture), it was unimportant. In view of the extensive neighborhood exposure, especially at Thetford, we inquired whether any people had mesothelioma who were not employed in asbestos pro duction but whe were living in the area. We found no such cases. more Page- 9 Chrysetile How Reassuring the Mining Experience? oo oc Co =r r> ~0 3 P ft H* O 3 co M O3 X3 CcO (-< 3 ft Ho 3 3C330O3"0. > co cr (0 3heO ft O ft O ft Cfl w C r3a t--1 3 t--1 HH- 3 T3O TO 8 p- ro p- ii p- * i o 3 i--1 co O co 0) o s 3 n 3Hft* i 3ft c 3 i 33 OM CHO-* I i ip O 3 ii CO 3" O rCoO a 1o 3 o II ii ii 11 o o f3t CfHOt* n 3 O (--1 CO Types o f O ccu p a tio n in w hich th e re was D e fin ite o r P robable Asbestos Exposure i ii ii ii ii 1 CO CoO Ooo C o a 3ft 1 1 of3t 3O H- O 33 (-J ChO-> i 3* C co t-* 3cr 3 a ro h> ynjU) CCO 3ft cr 3" 33 O3 CaO 1 1 Hj 3ft (--1 O3 CO 3r>" CCO O 31 o3lcfot 3 H- 1 1 1 f+iO 3 o co F-.g. 1C Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? Table IX: If you will look at the top line, you will note that we did find some indication of domestic exposure. There were a few people who had been exposed to a father or a husband working with asbestos. The diagnosis of mesothelioma may be more likely tc be made in such a situation, but nevertheless, this risk is probably real and, especially for children. But there is no indication that the general population is at any risk. So we found that the mesothelioma study backed up what wo found in the mining industry, namely that there is a small excess of mesotheliomas in mining but it was manufacture and insulation that were mainly associated with mesothelioma in Canada rather than the mining and milling of chrysotile. This has been borne out in other studies of chrysotile mines in Cyprus, Northern Italy and the USSR. Although the information is somewhat imcomplete, they indicate a similar experience to that found in Quebec with regard to lung cancer and, in fact, practically no mesotheliomas. The evidence, insofar as the chrysotile-producing industry goes, is good in that the risks are lew, and probably controllable. Now, referring back to Table I -- I'm going to put a + for chry sotile mining. For anthophyllite mining in Finland, the picture is similar in that they find no mesotheliomas in that country. There does appear to be some lung cancer associated with mining but it isn't the high rate that appears in manufacturing and in insulation work. Our information about crccidclite and amosite mining is frag mentary because it doesn't depend on surveys of people working in the mines. It depends, rather, on a surveillance of all types of cases which come from the mines and surrounding areas. It does appear, however, that there have been a substantial number of mesotheliomas around crocidolite mines in the Northwest Cape. So, I'll put a ? for crocidolite mining (Table I) because the evidence isn't too secure, especially in regards to rates; i.e., hew many cases in relaticn to how many workers and residents. Regarding the amesite mines in the Transvaal, there is a very minute + (Table I). There does appear to be some lung cancer but practically no mesothelioma -- which is very different from the Northwest Cape area. The relationship between mesothelioma and chrysotile has been confirmed in studies by the electron microscope -- studies in which fiber types in the lungs of cases of mesothelioma have been identi fied by Dr. Fred Pooley, of Cardiff in South Wales. In these studies, practically all of the fibers detected were of the omphi- more .. . Page 11 Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? bole.variety. So far it has not been possible to distinguish crocidolite from araosite fibers, but chrysotile can be detected. All the cases thus far examined have substantial amounts of amphibole fibers and relatively few chrysotile fibers. There are reports that persons exposed to chrysotile only in the manufacture of asbestos, have had similar rates of mesothelioma and lung cancer to those found in persons exposed to a mixture of fibers. The evidence isn't any too sure, in fact it's pretty doubt ful, that these men were exposed only to chrysotile. So, we must put a ? (Table I) against the risk of cancer in the manufacture of asbestos products using only chrysotile. Some additional comments to the data in Table I: Dr. Selikcff reports a high rate of mesothelioma and lung cancer in persons ex posed only to amosite. Information on the manufacture of anthophyllite is unknown because single types of fiber have not been used in the process. Mixed mining is not applicable. And, we lack satisfactory information about manufacturing with pure crocidolite or with pure anthophyllite. As you know, there are differences in the nature of each fiber type but experimental work has produced some possible explanations of the varying effects. Chrysotile is a long, thin and curly fiber and there is some evidence that it easily gets held up in the larger airways and, therefore, dees not penetrate so well as other fibor types which can enter the smaller airways and reach the pleural surface. In comparing crocidolite and amosite fibers, both are straight, rather than curly. However, when mined they apparently have quite different diameters; crocidolite having the narrower diameter and amosite being much wider in diameter. This fits in quite well with the findings from studies in the Northwest Cape. There are a lot of mesotheliomas in the Northwest Cape where the diameter cf the fibers is small; whereas in the Transvaal area, where amosite is mined, and the fibers are broad, there appear to be practically no mesotheliomas. This doesn't fit with the story of the manufacture of amosite, and, frankly, I really do not know the reason. Fiber differences could be an explanation; but on the other hand, the big differences between chrysotile raining and the manufacture of asbestos products and insulation certainly cannot be laughed off. Seme of the possibilities for the differences between chrysotile mining and manufacture and insulation are .... 1) It is possible that during manufacture the fibers may be broken up into much smaller pieces and, therefore, lose thoir capacity to be caught up in the bigg~r airways, thereby penetrating further into the lungs. more Page 12 Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? 2) It is possible that the culprits are crocidolite and/or amosite. 3) It also is possible that in the process of manufacturing and insulation, that other carcinogens are involved. Smoking has been raised as a possible additional factor in causing cancer of the lung; but for mesothelioma it has been pretty clearly shown that smoking is not an added factor. If there is something else that increases the risk of mesotheliomas, it is not smoking. So I have to conclude that the chrysotile mining experience cannot really be said to be reassuring. It is certainly possible that if one were able to show that the manufacture of pure chrysotile gave cancer rates, similar to those in mining and milling, the pic ture would certainly be brighter. But, it isn't brighter at the moment! end (j tic Ur 5'l 1973 Annual itee-VinK . October 5 1973 Vychmere Harbor Club, Harwichport, Massachusetts In Attendance AMATEX CORPORATION W. Maaskant J. L.

Subsequent to advising.the membership that the Institute had graciously accepted the generous invitation by the five ATI mining cempaniu-s tr. visit Canada for the June 1975 General Meeting, Presi dent Scowcrcft called V:illir.m J. W. Smith, of Boll Asbestos Mines Ltd., to the podium. On behalf of Asbestos Corporation Ltd., Bell Asbostcs Mines Ltd., Canadian Johns-Manvillc Cc. Ltd., Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd., end Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd., Mr. Smith cordially invited the ATI to join them in June 1975 in Quebec City. Included will be r. one-day side trip to Thetford to visit the mines. The meeting will be held on a Thursday and a Friday and fish ing arrangements will be made for Monday, Tuesday and part of Wednes day at some spot just north of Quebec City. The miners will want tc knovj sometime in 1974 how many men are interested in the fishing .trip . It was announced by President Scowcroft that the guest speaker at the February 1974 meeting in Charleston, South Carolina, will be Mr. Chain Robbins, newly-appointed Senior Adviser to John Stender and head of the new office of Occupational Health, OSHA. He will be accompanied by Lewis J. Cox, who recently was named special Assistant for Industry Liaison, OSHA. 10. Eugene J. Leff, of Cadwalnder, YJickersham k Taft, presented Remarks of Legal Counsel. The full text of his remarks is attached hereto. Mr. Leff discussed the recent decision in Telex Corporation v. International Business Machines Corporation and the question of whether suits against monopolization penalize excellence of manage ment of large corporations. . 11. The Fiber Producers' Report was presented by E. A. Farrell, Sales Manager, Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd. Mr. Farrell stated that in 1972 the United States again was the largest importer of textile , spinning fiber from Canada -- 13,700 tons. The United Kingdom and Yugoslavia followed. Yugoslavia is r. new large consumer of spinning fiber. Canada shipped 29,000 tens of spinning fiber throughout the world, compared with 30,000 to 22 countries in 1971. The supply of Quebec spinning fiber is good but leng grades from Cassiar are in short supply. The complete report is attached hereto............... Mr. Farrell compared an AIA/NA report cn the breakdown of asbestos usage in the U.S. vs a similar report from Industrial Minerals magazine giving world figures. In the U.S., textile fiber consumed 3$ of the total tonnage, floor tile consumed 18$ and asbestos-cement products, 25$. A different distribution, based on world consumption, was given by IM and included a percentage of 10$ for flocr tile and 70$ for asbestos-cement products (a really big difference from the AIA/NA figures). Following a comment from the floor by R. A. Clifton, U.S. Bureau of Mines, it was agreed the 70$ world usage of the asbestos- cement products category is quite high, although it could partly be attributed to the increase in construction in the developing countries. It was also stated that the 70$ figure was the same as that given last year by IM, leaving cno to ponder if new percentage figures had been compiled for the latest IM report. 12. The following reports of ATI activities at Committee level ware presented by the respective Chairmen to the general membership. A copy of each Report is attached hereto, i.e.: Air Hygiene !t Manufacturing - B. E. Carden, Chairman; Asbestos Advisory - E. W. Russell, Chairman; Technical - J. Y.\ Echerd, Chairman; more Fiber Research & Testing - C. . Stiefken, Chairman; Environmental Health - L. F. Dieringer, Chairman. R. A. Clifton added tc Mr. Carden's report by stating that at present it does not appear that the Environmental Protection Agency has any great concern over any asbestos that may be in the water effluent from manufacturing plants. .Also, there is no . proof that asbestos in water is harmful. 13. The following announcements were made by President Scowcroft: a. The ATT was deeply saddened by the demise of George S. Fabel, on Sunday, September 23, 1973; b. Re-elected as Officers of the ATI for the ensuing year -were M. Q. Scowcroft, President; A. Kuzmuk, Vice-President; and E. A. Morris, Treasurer. c. Asberit S.A., Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was unanimously approved by the Board of Governors as a new Class D Associate Member. d. The Asbestos Information Association/North America h~s relo cated to Suite 610, 1660 L Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036 (Telephone: 202 223 4885). Its new Executive Director is Robert H. Mereness, formerly a public relations consultant in the Washington, D.C., area. Matthew M. Swetonic, the previous Executive Secretary, has joined Hill tc. Knowlton's Environmental Affairs Department in New York City. He will serve in a consulting capacity to the AIA/NA for a year or so. 1A. President Scowcroft introduced, as the featu ed speaker, Alison 1)7 McDonald, M.D., D.P.H., Associate Professor, Department of Epidemiology and Health, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec.

These conditions are expected to extend through 1974, in view of a strong and growing demand from Europe and Asia. A recent survey of end uses of asbestos fibers in the U.S. issuedby the Asbestos Information Associr.ticn/Morth America shows consumption cf fiber fer textiles to be 3/ of the total.

Dieringer The Committee had another good meeting and discussions included visits to four asbestos textile plants by the National Institutes for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH); plant inspections by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA); and noise controls. The main purpose of the NIOSH visit was to observe and discuss en gineering controls and work practices directed at reducing the levels of asbestos fibers to which tha workers are exposed in textile operations; also, to check fiber counts previously taken in all op erations plus any data relating to a particular control cr practice that produces a definite reduction in fiber counts. While touring the plants, the NIOSH people made sketches of the various ventilation systems associated with the textile operations in nil departments. The NIOSH group planned to take some air velo city measurements at major exhaust hoods and make some limited personal air sampling. However, this was not done at the Hogansville, Georgia, facility. It is the Committee's understanding that the NIOSH people have selected two of the four plants visited to conduct approximately 600 dust counts derived from eight cne-hour studios on fifteen people per day for one week. Additional one-week studies will be made in October following the initial week's visit. Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970, NIOSH has the responsibility of conducting research for new occupational safety and health standards. NIOSH's rocc.iamenrtatic.ns a re transmitted to mere. the U.S. Department of Labor which has the responsibility fcr the final setting, promulgation and enforcement of the standards. While we cannot be sure, it is generally felt that NIOSH is conduct ing the above-mentioned studies for use by the soon-to-be-constituted 15-mamber Review Board, when reviewing the existing Asbestos Stand ard. Hopefully, the result will be a mere realistic Standard. From one recent OSHA inspection, machine guarding, exposed horizontal shafting and signs for electrical equipment were the only items listed for correction. This plant was given a period from one week . to 30 days to make the proper corrections and received only two very light penalties. . Drily dust counts were made during an inspection at another plant. While it is generally felt that the initial impact from OSH* 'is behind us, we cannot afford to "let upn from doing everything pos sible to comply with the standards. However, OSHA is aware cf the vast amount of improvement that is being accomplished by all plants toward the safety and health of their employees. Present noise levels above 90 decibels require the use of protective ear plugs. However, there is some indication the 90 decibel-level may be lowered to 85. This is an area where OSHA may take a closer lock in the future. It is felt that more work will be necessary tc reduce noise levels and tc eliminate the use cf ear plugs. In cne plant, an employee who is not wearing ear plugs in a work area with noise over 90 decibels is given an oral warning; the second time, a 3-day send-out; the third time, a week send-out; and the fourth time, a discharge.

The publicity that asbestcs receives is always a topic of discussion by the Committee. There was a general consensus of opinion that in spite of the adverse publicity directed at asbestos, the demand for asbestos textile products is continuing to increase. However, the industry must continue to make progress wherever possible, not just to avoid further criticism, but to continually improve upion its products and to reduce industrial health and safety hazards for its employees.

A Round Robin Test to determine Precision and Accuracy of these Stan dards is in process. Three of the five participating laboratories have completed the tests. All inter-laboratory testing is expected to be completed by January 1, 1974. Revision of aSTM Standards for Asbestos Cloth (D1571), Asbestos Tape (D315) end Asbestos Tubular Sleeving (D628) will be undertaken next. The Precision and Accuracy of each Standard will be determined by a Round Robin Test. ASTM Committee D-13 is scheduled to meet in New York City October 15 19, 1973- Subcommittee D13.14 will be represented by Messrs. P. 0. Nicodemus and V. Maaskant on alternate days. The Johns-Manville Tumbler Test procedure will be pursued as a means to determine the relative dustiness of various asbestos products. Five-hundred dollars ($500.00) has been budgeted for the project. A location for the Tester will be determined at a later date. J. V. Hawkins, of Raybestos-Manhattan Inc., will investigate and recommend possible sites. ' The Shaker Test was discussed as an alternate to the Tumbler Test method. No action was taken.- Proposed revisions to MIL-I-3053E, Insulation, Electrical, AsbestosFiber, Treated and Untreated, were reviewed.

C. Bratt and L. F. Dieringer) sat in on the discussions of the Air Hygiene and Manufacturing Committee. As of meeting time, the following is the status of various proposed OSHA health standards which are of interest to member companies: 1) Asbestos - A Department of Labor Standards Advisory Committee has not been selected to consider revision to the present Standard There is some indication that the DOL will by-pass use of this Committee and publish a proposed revised Standard in the Federal Register and then follow with the usual hearing and enactment process; . 2) Noise - A revised standard is expected to -be issued in the near future. It appears that the present 90 dBA limit fer daily eight- hour exposure will bo retained, that hearing testing will be required whore exposure exceeds 85 dBA, and that the definition of engineering control will be changed to include practical and economic considerations. This indicated latter change is import ant and it gets away from the strict present concept that if the noise can b$ engineered out, it must be, without considering other factors; , 3) Heat Stress - The Standards Advisory Committee is still consid ering a standard on heat stress. There are indications that because of the many controversies over the various provisions of the standard, it may be allowed to die on the vine. Of interest is a recent law suit in which an industrial worker's law suit against six firms which manufactured the asbestcs-containing products he installed, was upheld by a Circuit Court of Appeals. The case, Borel v. Fiberboard Paper Products Corporation, resulted from a suit involving a worker who died from lung cancer which the court said resulted from his work with asbestos over a 33-year period. The worker's complaint was based on the failure of the manu facturers of asbestos with which he worked to warn that their product could be dangerous to the ultimate user. The judge, in the court opinions, said that since the dangers of asbestos were known to the medical community since 1924> the manufacturers had a duty to inform purchasers and ultimate users of the product's inherent dangers, which they had not done. Recent articles of interest are: 1) "Inprovc-d Techniques of Identification and Determination of Airborn Asbestos," L.

Dieringer, Chairman REMARKS OF LEGAL COUNSEL Asbestos Textile Institute Annual Meeting October 5, 1973, Hnrwichport, Massachusetts Two weeks ago the business community experienced a shock wave pro duced by a federal court in an antitrust suit. I suppose that busi nessmen have become amply aware of the significance of the law in business affairs. But when I.B.M. was ordered to pay Telex $352-1/2 million., even the lawyers were amazed. Judge A. Sherman Christensen, sitting in Tulsa, Oklahoma, ruled on September 17, 1973, that the International Business Machines Corpora tion illegally monopolized the market for "plug compatible peripheral equipment" comprising such items as memories, tape devices and printers that plug directly into the main processing units of compu ters. The suit by Telex is one of several brought against the giant of the computer industry. The Antitrust Division of the Federal Government is going directly for the jugular, suing I.B.M. in New York for monopolizing the market for general-purpose digital computers. Other suits have been brought by Controlled Data Corp., Greyhound Computer Leasing Corp., and others. One body of opinion considers this series of cases to be an unwar ranted attack on bigness itself. I.B.M. is being sued according to this view, simply because it has obtained a large share of the computer market, and the plaintiffs are oblvious to the natural and even praiseworthy reasons for I.B.M.'s growth. The law, however, does not make bigness alone illegal. The Sherman Act, Section 2, makes monopolization illegal, not the mere possession of monopoly power. ''Monopolization" is a technical legal term which includes bigness plus an intent to acquire a monopoly. A suit based on monopolization can succeed only if it is proven, first, that the defendant possesses monopoly power in a particular market, and, second, that it has obtained cr maintained this power through willful action, such ns anti-competitive pricing practices rather than through the excellence of its products or management. To differentiate excellence of management from willful exclusion of competitors is, of course, extremely difficult. Professor Martin Shubick, an economist at Yale and formerly of I.B.M., has said that the question is so difficult in the Government1s suit against I.B.M., for example, that if he wore offered n high enough consulting fee, ho would be willing to work for either side in the suit in "perfect comfort and utter objectivity." .Nevertheless, the Supreme Court cf the United States believes that the distinction can be nurdc and that serious legal consequences may properly result. In the case of United States v. Grinr.ell Coro.. 3SA U.S. 563, 570-71 (1966), th-i Supreme Court stated that: more  - "The offense of monopoly under 2 of the Sherman Act has two elements: (1) the possession of monopoly power'in the relevant market and (2) the willful acqui sition or maintenance of that power as * distinguished from growth or development as a consequence of a superior product, business acumen, or historic accident." _ This statement of the law reflects a very widely held sense of fair ness. Why should the enterprise that Thomas J. Watson, Sr. built up be penalized, and even split up as the Justice Department would like, if only the best business techniques were the cause of its success? In a letter to the Editor cf The New York Tines Magazine, printed on August 19, 1973, an anonymous I.B.M. employee wrote of I.B.M.'s record c.f technological achievement, stating that "... hard-headed businessmen buy I.B.M. products because cf superior performance and service. I.B.M. has been able to aspire to this kind of sup;riority and keep ahead of its competitors by motivating its employees tc regard excellence as a worthwhile goal. . . Why, then, penalize excellence by trying to 'break-up I.B.M.'?" (p.64) Judge Christensen, for one, has reached the conclusicn that I.B.M.'s success is due to some less commendable practices as well. He found that I.B.M. tried to "substantially constrain or destroy its plug peripheral competition by predatory pricing actions and by market strategies bearing no relationship tc. technological skill, industry, appropriate foresight or customer benefit." Situations of monopoly may arise in various ways. They may result, on the one hand, innocently from the supremacy of the monopolist as victor in a race of competition, by reason of his technical superior ity, cr his ownership of an important patent. Monopoly nay develop, on the other hand, from the absorption of competitors in an illega.l merger. Or monopoly can emerge by driving competitors out of busi ness, by putting deliberate business impediments in their path, or by combining or conspiring with competitors. Clearly, nn unlawful monopoly exists if monopoly power has been established cr maintained by means of restraints of trade which would in themselves be illegal under the Sherman Act. Also, if there is proof that the defendant's business policy, his subjective intent, is to acquire or tc- keep a monopoly position, the law is violated. However, Judge Learned Hand has said that ". . .no monopolist monopolizes unconscious of what he is deing." Aluminum Co. of America v. Uniti-d States. 148 F.2d 416, 432 (2d Cir. 194D. Therefore, some business practices will lead the courts to conclude that the company involved must necessarily have intended to acquire a monopoly. In fact, it is very difficult for a company which possesses monopoly power tc prove that it did net intend to monepeliz-o. It is required mere.. . to cons forward with substantial evidence that the monopoly was "thrust upon" it. Alcoa raised this defense in 1945, but it was rejected by Judge Hand, who stated that: : * . . "It was not inevitable that it (Alcoa) should always anticipate increases in the demand for ingot and be prepared tc supply them. Nothing compelled it to keep doubling and redoubling its capacity before ethers entered the field." (146 F.2d at 431.) Very little indeed is required to show that the monopolist intended _ to obtain a monopoly. In 1953 the United Shoe Machinery Corp. was held liable for illegal monopolization. United States v. United Shoe Machinery Corn.. 110 F.Supp. 295 (D. Mass" 1953). eff'd nor curiam. 347 U.S. 521 (1954). Its monopoly cf machines used in manufacturing shoes was found to have been obtained in part through a system of leasing and not sell ing its machines. The District Court held that the lease-only and certain other practices "... represent something more than the use of accessible resources, the process of invention and innovation, and the employment cf those techniques of employment, financing, production, and distribution, which a comps-- * titive society must foster. They are.contracts, arrangements, and policies which, instead of encouraging competition based upon pure merit, further the dominance of a particular firm. In this sense, they are unnatural barriers; they unnecessarily exclude actual and potential competition; they restrict a free market." 110 F. Supp. at 344-45. Some of the cases referred to above have been misunderstood at times to suggest that a company which has monopoly power may become liable for unlawful monopolization merely by being active, enterprising and dynamic. Such n view implies that the safest course for large companies is passive stagnation, with a gradual loss of market share -- a business policy directly at odds with the aims of antitrust law. This, however, is not the teaching of the cases referred to. Enter prise alone is not penalized; the maintenance of monopoly power by policies intended to discourage, impede or even prevent the rise of new competitors is where the courts have drawn the line. Returning to the recent judgment against I.B.M. for more than a third of a billion dollars, the court's opinion reveals that I.B.M. adopted certain practices which, according to the Judge, were "directed not at competition in an appropriate competitive sense, but at competitors and their viability as such." Among these were the bundling of prices of I.B.M.'s memories with its central process ing units, that is, charging a single price for both items, and more predatory pricing. Therefore, the District Court in the Telex case held the conviction that it was not penalizing excellence as such, or even bigness. - Although the standards governing the illegality of monopolies are, in my opinion, fair and economically beneficial, their application to any particular company is a mystery to all outside observers because of the factual complexity of such cases. _ The number of dollars involved in the I.B.M. judgment is almost equaled by the number of documents, let alone testimony of witnesses, which are involved in this type of litigation. We all can take com fort in the fact that even though we do not have $352-1/2 million to lose, neither must we endure a suit based on monopolization. ` Thank you very much for your attention. - Eugene J.

CHRYSOTILE - HOW REASSURING THE MINING EXPERIENCE? CHRTSOTILE -- HOW REASSURING THE MINING EXPERIENCE' By: Alison D. McDonald, M.D., D.B.H. Department of Epidemiology end Health McGill University, Montreal, Quebec Presented to the Asbestos Textile Institute at its Annual Meeting held October 5> 1973 at Wychmere Harbor Club, Harwichport, Mass. What are the health risks associated with working with asbestos? In quantitative and qualitative terms -- What is the relationship between amount and type of exposure and amount and type of disease? Although a great deal of research has been done on the subject, the picture is still fairly incomplete because the main evidence has to come from observations on man -- on people who are known to have ' been exposed to the mineral. Other investigations, such ns animal experiments, do a lot to add to the picture but the evidence basically depends on what disease occurs in man and with what ex posures. It is complicated, as you realize, by'the different varieties of fibers, and because each fiber type may affect health differently. But I will try to give you some picture of the present state of knowledge, which is, on the one hand, complicated, and on the other, uncertain. . Slide 1 shows the main types and quantities of asbestos pro duced and the time period over which they have been produced. It also shows the different uses for the mineral. . The first hazard to be observed was asbestosis. In quantita tive terms -- What is the risk of contracting asbestosis? How much dust exposure, and over how long a period of time, is necessary before there is a risk of getting asbestosis? The matter is still rather poorly assessed, except in the study we have been doing in Quebec where we do now have, for chrysotile mining, a fairly good picture of the amount of exposure which will give rise to asbestosis. It appears that all types of fibers and all types of processes (all industrial groups) are at risk of asbestosis. . The problem really lies in lung cancer. There are two main cancers that are associated with asbestos -- lung cancer, which is really indistinguishable from the lung cancer that smoking can give you; and mesothelioma, which is a very rare tumor that involves the surface of the lung and the lining of the abdominal cavity. A very definite connection has been observed between asbestos exposure and mesothelioma. The only slides available for reproducing in this written account are shown as Tables 2 through 9. more Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? .

Ifm proposing to look at this in three main industrial groups: mining, manufacture and insulation -- and at the fiber types concerned, i.e., chrysotile, the three main amphiboles, and mixed fiber expos. ures. Unfortunately, the latter group is the most common. When we started our studies in Quebec; it was known that very substantial risks of lung cancer and mesothelioma were found in the manufacturing processes and in people working with insulation. This is particularly true for mesothelioma which is very rare and only occurs in one out of a million population -- and yet a substantial number of cases are found with certain asbestos exposures. Substantial health risks in terms of mesothelioma .and lung cancer have been well documented for mixed fiber exposures. When we began our studies in Quebec, there w?s little evidence of a serious problem in the Chrysotile mining industry. It was, therefore, very important to look at groups of people who were exposed to only one type of fiber. So we started investi gating all persons who had ever been employed in the Quebec chrysctile-producing industry. The main objective, apart from studying pure Chrysotile exposure, was to determine the dose re sponse relationship; that is to say, to try to get some precise information about what exposures could be sustained without a significant risk to health, and at what level was there a significant amount of disease. ' As you know, the two main asbestos mining areas in Quebec are Asbestos and Thetford Mines. Slide 2 is a photograph of Canadian Johns-Manville's Jeffrey fiine at Asbestos. Slide 3 is a picture of Smith Street, in Thetford, which is indicative of the extensive environmental exposure to people, locally. Slide U. In starting our survey, we obtained personnel records of all of the people who ever had worked in the mines and mills. We documented all cf their jobs, recorded as well as possible the amount of dust to which they had been exposed, and allowed for the tine during which they had been exposed to these levels. We then divided all cf these people into groups, according to the amount of dust exposure. more Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience?

Looking at the top line, we have six groups, ranging from a total of less than 10 million particles per cubic foot x years through 800 plus. If you take a lifetime of 50 years of employment, the last group on the right would be equivalent to exposure to an average of at least 15 million particles per cubic foot. This is a very heavily exposed group and, of course, such exposures have only happ'ened in. the past and do not occur at the present time. Dr. Graham Gibbs, of the Department of Epidemiology and Health, has been studying the'Corre lation between fiber counts and particle counts and we do not find sufficient correlation between the two to give our findings in terms of fiber counts. For this reason and because all epidemiological information is in terms of particle counts, we consider that these should continue to be used until fiber counts have been done for a long period of time. We do not have any direct information about fiber levels in terms of risks of disease. One of the three major studies we undertook was of all men born between 1891 and 1920, to study causes of death and wh"t their death rates were in various dust categories. We did an x-ray study in order to determine which dust groups showed an increased incidence of x-ray changes and at what level the increase started. This, of course, was important evidence of disease. Laboratory equipment was moved down to the mining areas and 1000 men were submitted to detailed lung function studies, again to see what the relationship was between the amount of chrysotile dust to which the men had been exposed and changes in their lung function.

Of nil causes cf" disease, it was only in the highest dust greup (8C0+) that there was a considerable excess of deaths. For respira tory cancers, which includes malignant pleural mesothelioma of which there were very few cases in the industry, a rise is clearly present in the 4C0 to 800+ dust groups with an exposure (to an average con centration of 8 mpef over 50 years}. The rise probably dees begin a little earlier. The highest dust group, which as we said was very heavily exposed, has about 3 times as much respiratory cancer as do the people with minimal exposure (the less than 10 group). The latter group includes people such as those working in clerical jobs and who have virtually no exposure to asbestos. But having informa tion for both groups gave us r. population with which to compare the people who were substantially exposed to dust. There was alsc some indication that abdominal cancers were related to dust exposure. You will see a higher amount of abdomi.ial cancers in the 400 to 800 and the 800+ groups. The same experience has been observed in other studies. It is by no means certain that this is directly due to asbestos since there are ether possible explanations. You will see that the rise in asbestosis occurs at arcund the 200 dust level, indicating an equivalent of .an average of 5 mpef over 50 years. . Table IV/Slide 9. What is thought to be significant disease is irregular small opacities of grade 2/1. For those cases we observed that a significant- increase occurred in the 100 to 200 dust group. Wa conclude, that for a lifetime exposure, an average of 2 mpef gives rise to radiological change indicative of significant disease in l of persons. Slide 10. In lung function tests in cigarette smokers and non smokers, the "first change occurred in the capacity to breath in and this started with low levels cf dust exposure.

From the answers, we found that there was a relationship between breathlessness and dust exposure not apparently affected by smoking. But if you look at bronchitis and along the- line for the ''never smoked" and the two groups of smokers, you will note there wasn't any change in bronchitis which increased asbestos dust exposure.

The other study we did was to survey all mesotheliomas in Canada. At the outset, I should say we had just 5 mesotheliomas out cf 3270 deaths in the mining industry. Although this may seem to you to be a small number, there should be no cases of mesothelioma in a general population. One of the problems about mesothelioma is the diagnosis. There is by no means agreement among pathologists about the diagnosis of mesothelioma; so our finding of 5, having searched pretty thoroughly for mesotheliomas, may well be an over-estimate, especially because they were particularly looked for in people with known asbestos dust exposure. Having found very few in the industry, we did a concurrent study -- locating all the mesotheliomas we could in Canada. V/e obtained from all pathologists reports about all known cases and feel wo got fairly full ascertain ment. The ascertainment wasn't done until 1967-68. If you look at the graph at the top (Table VI) you will see a gradual rise in the annual number of nesotheliomas across Canada up to 1966. This is mors Chrysotile -- How Keassuring the Mining experience : probably due to poor memory and lack of knowledge about mesotheliomas in these earlier years. We are continuing this surveillance, and between 1966 and 1970 there doesn't appear to have been any change. This is rather a short period of time and we obviously need to know, whether this "no change" situation will continue. As you know, the big concern is the lengthy latent period for mesothelioma to develop and the widely expressed fear that we are new going to reap results from exposures which occurred 20-30 years ago and that the rate of mesotheliomas may rise. We now feel quite happy that a fairly good base line has been established for this surveillance and we shall be able to know within the next few years what is happening in Canada. If you look at the bottom line (Table VI), we looked to sec whether mesothelioma occurred mere in one part of Canada than in other sections of the country. There was, in fact, more in Quebec -- over 2 per million population, compared with just over one in Ontario and slightly less than one in the rest of Canada. But we must revert to the question of the diagnosis. When the mesotheliomas were submitted to patholo gists, a much lower proportion was accepted as mesothelioma oy the pathologists' panel -- not only in Quebec but in all of Canada. It looks as though, for cases that are accepted by the panel as mesotheliomas, there is little or no difference in the various parts of Canada.

Table II: If you will look at the top line, you will note that we did find some indication of domestic exposure. There were a few people'who had been exposed to a- father or a husband working with asbestos. The diagnosis of mesothelioma may be more likely to be made in such a situation, but nevertheless, this risk is probably real and, 'especially for children. But there is no indication that the general population is at any risk. So we found that tha mesothelioma study backed up what we found in the mining industry, namely that there is a small excess of mesotheliemas in mining but it was manufacture and insulation that. wer- mainly associated with mesothelioma in Canada rather than the mining and milling of chrysotile. . This has been borne out in other studies of .chrysotile mines in Cyprus, Northern Italy and the USSR. Although the information is somewhat imcomplete, they indicate a similar experience to that found in Quebec with regard to lung cancer and, in fact, practically no mesotheliomas. The evidence, insofar as the chrysotile-producing industry goes, is good in that the risks are low, and probably controllable. Now, referring back to Table I -- ITm going to-put a + for chry sotile mining. For anthophyllite mining in Finland, the picture is similar in that they find no mesotheliomas in that country. There does appear to be some lung cancer associated with mining but it isn't the high rate that appears in manufacturing and in insulation work. Our information about crccidclite and amosite mining is frag mentary because it doesn't depend on surveys of people working in the mines. It depends, rather, on a surveillance of all types of cases which come from the mines and surrounding areas. It does appear, however, that there have been a substantial number of mesotheliemas around crocidclite mines in the Northwest Cape. So, I'll put a ? for crccidclite mining (Table I) because the evidence isn't too secure, especially in regards to rates; i.e., how many cases in relation to how many workers and residents. Regarding the amesite mines in the Transvaal, there is a very minute + (Table I). There does appear to bo some lung cancer but practically no mesothelioma -- which is very different frem the Northwest Cape area. The relationship between mesothelioma and chrysotile has been confirmed in studies by the electron microscope -- studies in which fiber types in the lungs of cases of mesotheliema have been identi fied by Dr. Fred Pooley, of Cardiff in South Wales. In these studies, practically rll of the fiborc rirtcctnd yurr, of the nmphi- more Page 11 Chrysotile -- How Reassuring the Mining Experience? bole variety. So far it has not been possible to distinguish crccidolite from amosite fibers, but chrysotile can be detected. All the cases thus far examined have substantial amounts of amphi- bole fibers and relatively few chrysotile fibers. ' There are reports that persons exposed to chrysotile only in' the manufacture of asbestos, have had similar rates of mesothelioma and lung cancer to those found in persons exposed to a mixture of fibers. The evidence isn't any too sure, in fact it's pretty doubt ful, that these men were exposed only to chrysotile. So, we must put a ? (Table I) against the risk of cancer in the manufacture of . asbestos products using only chrysotile. Some additional comments to the data in Table I: Dr. Selikoff reports a high rate of mesothelioma and lung cancer in persons ex posed only to amosite. Information on the manufacture cf antho- phyllite is unknown because single types of fiber have not been used in the process. Mixed mining is not applicable. And, we lack satisfactory information about manufacturing with pure crocidolite or with pure anthophyllite. . As you know, there are differences in the nature of each fiber type but experimental work has produced some possible explanations of the varying effects. Chrysotile is a long, thin and curly fiber and there is some evidence that it easily gets held up in the larger airways and, therefore, does not penetrate so well as other fibar types which can enter the smaller airways and reach the pleural surface-. In comparing crocidolite and amosite fibers, both are straight, rather than curly. However, when mined they apparently have quite different diameters; crocidolite having the narrower diameter and amosite being much wider in diameter. This fits in quite well with the findings from studies in the Northwest Cape. There are a lot of mesotheliomas in the Northwest Cape where the diametar cf the fibers is small; whereas in the Transvaal area, where amosite is mined, and the fibers are broad, there appear to be practically no mesotheliomas. This doesn't fit with the story of the manufacture of amosite, and, frankly, I really do not know the reason. Fiber differences could be an explanation; but on the other hand, the big differences between chrysotile mining and the manufacture of asbestos products and insulation certainly cannot be laughed off. Seme of the possibilities for the differences between chrysotile mining and manufacture and insulation are .... 1) It is possible that during manufacture the fibers nay be broken up into much smaller pieces and, therefore, lose thMr capacity to be caught up in the bigger airway a, thoi-vby penetrating further int*> the lungs. more Page 12 Chrysotilc -- Hoy; Reassuring the Mining Experience? 2) It is possible that the culprits are crocidolite and/or amosite. . 3) It also is possible that in the process of manufacturing and insulation, that other carcinogens are involved. Smoking has been raised as a possible additional factor in causing cancer of the lung; but for mesothelioma it has been pretty clearly shown that smoking is not an added factor. . If there is something else that increases the risk of mesotheliomas, it is net smoking. So I have to conclude that the chrysotile mining experience nannot really be said to be reassuring. It is certainly possible that if one v;ere able to show that the manufacture of pure chrysotile gave cancer rates, similar to those in mining and milling, the pic ture would certainly be brighter. But, it isn't brighter at the moment! end - Minute* GENERAL MEETING Asbestos Textile Institute FEB 8- 1974 ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE, General Meeting Fetruarv , 1974 The Mills Hyatt House, Chari est'-'n, South Carolina A.MATEX CORPORATION W.

I have read ASBESTOS Magazine backwards and forwards--going back 2 or 3 vears. Most of you are acquainted with the AIA-'NA. You know what we are doing and I would like to say that we are doing our job, addressing ourselves to the problems that we have with regulatory agencies in Washington, D. C. As you know, the Association was located in New York City up until October of this year. It is now in Washington and we are trying to do a job for all of ^ou in the Industry--to recognize what's going on and what we have to do to be vigorous in our approach to doing the best that we can do for vou, under some rather difficult and trying times. I won't go into the public relations or governmen tal aspects, but they are all there and that's why we are in Washing ton and trying to do the job for vou. One final note. Early this week a group of 14 of your colleagues (our Technical Committee) met in Newark, New Jersev. Headed by Edmund M. Fenner, of Johns-Manville Corporation, we parceled out the jobs that have to be done with regard to helping OSHA in the rewrite of the Asbestos Standard. For me, as a neophvte to the group, to see the enthusiasm, experience and dedication of these men doing work on this very difficult task, was most rewarding. You all have received a copy this afternoon of the little green booklet entitled "What Every Employee Should Know About Asbestos and What You Should Tell Others'.1 It was prepared by J-M, with some input by us, and although similar to the OSHA booklet, we believe ours is perhaps a little more helpful. More copies are available for the asking, as is any service or information that we can give you on the work of AIA/NA and what we're trying to do for all of you. end fiber_prodtjcer?^_ report presented at ATI General"`.'Tee ting*,' Fecruar'V"8, 1974, The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina) Total shipments from the QAMA member companies in 1973 amounted to 1,516,340 tons, an increase in tonnage of 143,663 tons or 10.5$ over 1972. Total sales of group 3 or spinning fibres were 24,354 tons as compared to 21,293 tons for 1972 for an increase of 14.4$. The sales of spin ning grades represent 1.6$ of the total tonnage sold in 1973. Although the final official year-end figures are. not in yet, the total QAMA inventory is estimated at 120,000 tons as compared with 151,300 tons as of December 31, 1972, for a decrease of approximately 31,000 tons. Total inventory of all group 3 grades is estimated at about 10,000 tons at the end of 1973. The outlook for 1974 at this early period of the year looks favorable to the asbestos mining industry. Export orders are in, in most cases releases are for months and months ahead. The big problem is to se cure containers and bookings from the shipping lines. Some companies have stopped calling at the St. Lawrence ports during the coming season, other lines have cut off a number of ports around the world. Ocean rates are guaranteed for only short periods and surcharge costs can change daily. Now a word on the asbestos supply situation. All long spinning grades are in short supply. The medium length spinning grades are not too easily available. William Smith told me that both Bell Asbestos & Cassiar Asbestos have a specific shortage of long spinning grades. There is an acute shortage of group- 4 grades, the supply of groups 5 and 6 is tight at this time and no doubt will get worse. Group 7 grades availability is better generally but not with all producers and especially in the more open or bulkier grades. The Bureau of Mines of the U. S. Department of the Interior, reports that, in the first 8 months of this year, the Republic of South Africa exported to the United States 13,200 tons of crocidolite and 8,900 tons of amosite. This is better than 200$ increase in crocidolite and 20$ of amosite imports over 1972. Paul E. Leclerc, Regional Sales Manager Asbestos Corporation Ltd. AIR HYGIENE & MANUFACTURING COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 8, 197A -- The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina The Committee met with fifteen members and guests and eleven companies represented. However, approximately ten ''extra'1' quests, .including Cois M. Brown, of the Atlanta, Georgia, office of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, came in purposely for B. D. "Bill" Bittinger's special program. Members in attendance included: Amatex Corporation H. H. Walter Canadian Johns-Manville Co. Ltd. J. P. Power Garlock Inc. S. G. Dixit Johns-Manville Corporation W. B. Reitze Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd. E. A. Farrell Nicolet Industries, Inc. A. M. Wcisberg Nippon Asbestos Co. Ltd. K. Mori Y. Sato H. K. Porter Company, Inc. L. E. Moody Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. C. A. Kennedy R. T. Matthew TEA Industrial Products Ltd. H. J. Corson Uniroyal, Inc. 3. t). Bittinger B. E. Carden L. F. Dieringcr B. D. "Bill" Bittinger, a. former member of the Committee, presented the following interesting report on his recent trip to Europe, which included visits to two textile asbestos plants in West Germany. In addition to showing slides and photographs of processes and equip ment, Mr. Bittinger answered many questions asked by various Commit tee members and visitors. Following is Mr. Bittinger's report on his visit to one of the German plants: "This is one of the cleanest plants I have visited. The plant, grounds and offices were clean and neat. The mill buildings appeared to be old buildings that have been modernized. The plant floors are terrazzo in opening and blending, concrete in the carding area and maple in the spinning area. /"This plant has Hergeth opening, blending, and storage equipment (spinnbau cards and spinning frames. "Asbestos in palletized bags is stored on hand-operated lift trucks at each hopper so that the bag to be used is always at the operator's waist level. They were using Asbestos Corporation's 3T fiber from Canada. The asbestos bag is placed into the covered conveyor trav before opening, and the empty bag is placed into an enclosed chu'.c so that it falls into a plastic bog fur later dispooal. more Page 2 - 'ar.ut.es of the ATI Air Hvgiene & '-tfe;. Committee - 2/B/7U ''The blending conveyor behind the blenders is totally enclosed and has clear plastic windows to permit the operator to observe the blended fiber as it is conveyed to the transfer blower. "The fiber is transferred by air up to the Hergeth blending silo. The silo is composed of 10 rectangular boxes about 72"xl2"xl5I tall. The fiber is fed into the silo bins from the top by a traveling condenser. The condenser can be programmed to fill the silo compartments one at a time or any of several other variations to enhance blending. The compartments feed a conveyor belt that transfers the fiber to a blow er. The fiber is thus supplied to the card hoppers. "The silo will hold about 2-1 '2 shifts of fiber so the blending unit only has to be run one shift. The Hergeth feeder is equipped with a vibrating plate feeder. "The totally-enclosed double cards are set over an opening in the floor that is about the same area aa the card. All drops and the waste ends fall down into this hole or pit under the card and a con veyor/blower system automatically transfers all this material directly back to the card hopper. There are access doors in the basement into each of these pits for cleaning. Each door has a picture of a face with a dust mask affixed to it. This is the only warning sign noticed in the plant. Each card had 12 ducts coming from it where dust and lint were being removed. The Carding assignment was one card per operator; however, each card was equipped with a 123 end condenser. Leather aprons are used on the cards and the average life is one year. The cards were running roving weighing 630 grams per kilometer at 55 yards per minute. The cheeses doffed weighed 500 grams each. "The air filter system has blowers ahead of the filter bags and four bags are attached to a manifold that has a plastic bag attached at floor level making changing a simple task. They "shake" the filter bags once per shift and the plastic bags are changed when they are full. The exhaust air from the filter bags is filtered again as it leaves the room through a traveling filter media unit and returned to the plant. They also have several small filter bag units around the plant to filter product transfer air. Changes air in plant 18 times per hour. "The Spinnbau spinning frames have metal hinged (bifold) covers over the spindles and a suction system for each frame. The waste from each frame is accumulated in a plastic bag under the floor (in base ment). They have two older spinning frames (using fly frames) that are simply enclosed in a plywood enclosure with counter-weighted access doors. These enclosures are exhausted to a waste collector in the basement. "Their looms are totally enclosed with clear plastic windows in the counter-weighted doors. These enclosures reduce the sound level at the operator's level by as much as 4db (94 down to 90 db) when the doors are closed. more Page 3 - Minutes of the ATI Air Hygiene & Mfg. Committee - 2^8'74 "Some additional facts concerning this plant: 1. Their reworkable fiber amounts to approximately 20$. 2. They state that their waste amounts to 3 to 5$. Their figure is hard to believe since asbestos as received from the mines con tains 9 to 12$ dust. 3. Their blending line with 7 feed hoppers occupies an area 40 feet x 100 feet. Their cards are 15 feet wide and 30 feet long. 4. The ring size on the Spinnbau spinning frames is 140 MM. These frames are equipped with individual brakes and Pneumafil. A full spinning bobbin weighs 1 kilogram. They do not doff in boxes but onto a pin truck. The Spinnbau spinning frames have 80 spindles per frame. 5. The average yarn size is about 1000 TEX. (Grams'1000 meters 4.96 Cut) and they run from 630 TEX to 1800 TEX. The spinning doffs every 3 hours on 1000 TEX. A full spinning bobbin weighs 1 kilogram. 6. They have 4 new rapier looms manufactured by STAUBLI-TRUMPELT. Most of their fabric was about 7 picks per inch. The fabric is split in the middle on the loom. They are weaving from pin creels. Job assignment is 2 looms per weaver." SPECIAL NOTE: Mr. Bittinger made several dust counts in this plant with results on the high side. This is disturbing when you con sider the modern enclosed equipment and the cleanliness of the plant. L. F. Moody discussed his recent appointment by AIA/NA as chairman of a special committee to describe and set up a set of work prac tices (Asbestos Mfg.) for presentation to OSHA. Mr. Moody suggested that each plant should get this information as it applies to their operations. On receipt of this information, Mr. Moody and his committee will attempt to come up with the final set-up, but will get in touch with each plant involved before the report is released. Respectfully submitted, Buel E. Carden, Chairman MINUTES TECHNICAL COMMITTEE ' asbestos Textile Institute February 8, 1974 - The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina IN ATTENDANCE Amatex Corporation - W. Maaskant H. K. Porter Company, Inc. - J. W. Echerd Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. - J. W. Hawkins Uniroyal, Inc. - D. T. Austin and C. S. Barnwell The Round Robin test on Asbestos Roving (D-375), Asbestos Yarn (D-299) and Asbestos Lap (D-106l) have been completed and data has been sta tistically analyzed by Johns-Manvilie Corporation. The results between the five laboratories involved were very good. This infor mation will be sent to ASTM D-1314 for incorporation into the new ASTM Book of Standards. a Round Robin test is currently underway on Tubular Sleeving (D-628). An attempt will be made to have this test completed prior to the March ASTM meeting. Additional Round Robin tests are being started on Asbestos Tape (D-315) and Asbestos Cloth (D-1571). Wm. Maaskant told the Committee that Paul 0. Nicodemus would like to have an ASTM meeting in the near future and plans are being formulat ed. This would be either in Williamsburg, Virginia, or Philadelphia, Pa. ' Recommended changes in MIL-I-3053-E Insulation, Electrical, Asbestos Fiber, Treated and Untreated have been submitted to the Naval Engi neering Center at Hyattsville, Maryland. J. W. "Bill" Echerd has been requested by the Committee to summarize the work that has been done on Military specifications over the last few years so that the Committee may know the status of the specifi cations and determine if additional work is necessary. No progress was reported on the J-M Tumbler Test for the determina tion of asbestos dustiness. Some doubts have been expressed over the reproducibility of this test and its value, and an alternative will be explored. It was recommended that the $500.00 allocated to this project be held pending a decision on the most useful test. The Technical Committee acknowledges the services of Tex Austin over the last eight years. His assistance at future meetings will be greatly missed. Respectfully submitted. John W. Hawkins, Acting Chairman MINUTES FIBER RESEARCH & TESTING COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 8, 1974 -- The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina IN ATTENDANCE: American Smelting & Refining Co. - C. E. Stiefken Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd. - W. H. Smith Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd. - R. A. Kuntze H. K. Porter Company, Inc. - D. E. Childers The Fiber Research & Testing Committee consr.uered throe items at its meeting on February 8, 1974. Firstly, Mr. Stiefken has completed his term as Chairman of the committee as of this meeting. Dr. Kuntze agreed to act as Interim Chairman until another Chairman could be found. The committee wishes to thank Mr. Stiefken for an excellent job which culminated in the new ATI Manual. The committee recognizes the extraordinary workload and the difficulties associated with the preparation of this Manual. Secondly, Mr. Stiefken reported that the Manual is now ready for printing except for some editorial corrections. It is anticipated that the manuscript will be submitted to the printer by March. The book will have about 225 pages comprising 34 test methods of which 15 are in ASTM format. As mentioned previously, the book will be a green 5-ring binder with the title printed on both front and side. The price is estimated to be about $9.50. Mrs. Fagan will verify the orders placed so far once the final cost of the book is known. Fortunately, Mr. Stiefken has agreed to continue looking after all technical details until the book is available for distribution. Thirdly, the committee discussed at length its terms of reference, its future role or purpose, etc. It was decided to meet in the future together with other committees--primarily the Technical Committee--in order to establish better communication between . committees. It is felt that without this communication and par ticipation, the Fiber Research Sc Testing Committee will no longer serve a useful function. Respectfully submitted, R. A. Kuntze, Interim Chairman MINUTES ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute February 8, 1974- -- The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina The Environmental T:>alch Cowuttee met ic- a :on Friday, February 8, 1974. In atter.-i.ince were E. Z. hr-\c". . Porter ` Company, Inc., L. V. Dieringer, Unirova], Inc.; aAd W, 1. Reitz, Johns-Manville Corporation. The members also met for a short time with the Air Hygiene Sc Manufacturing Commie tee to hear . 0, Bittinger's interesting presentation on his visit to various asbestos textile manufacturing plants in Europe. As of meeting time, the following is the status of various proposed OSHA health standards of interest to member companies: 1) Asbestos - No Action. 2) Noise - The OSHA Hofse Standards Advisory Committee sent a recommended standard to the Assistant. Secretary of Labor on January 11, 1974. Recommendations i,,i eluded adoption of present 90 dBA limit, audiometric testing for employees whose exposure exceeds 85 dBA, and a slightly more liberal interpretation of feasible engineering controls. 3) Heat Stress - The OSHA Heat Stress Standards Advisory Com mittee recommended a standard for hot environments to the Assistant Secretary of Labor on January 11, 1974. Briefly, the recommended standard is based on work practices to minimize the effects of hot environmental conditions on working employees based on WBGT values calculated by two alternate methods set forth in the standard. Recent articles of interest include: 1) The Health of Chrysotile Asbestos Mine and Mill Workers of Quebec. J. C. McDonald, et al. Arch Environmental Health 28:61, February 1974. 2) Dust Fiber Relationships in the Quebec Chrysotile Industry. G. W. Gibbs, et al. Arch Environmental Health 28:69, February 1974. Respectfully submitted, L. F. Dieringer, Chairman REMARKS OF LEGAL COUNSSL Asbestos Textile Institute General Meeting The Mills Hyatt House, Charleston, South Carolina February 8, 197/*. As most of you may know, the Asbestos Textile Institute has been sued in Tyler, Texas, in the Federal District Court. Two complaints were filed inJanuary. In the first, Herman Yandle and six others have sued ATI and a number of other defendants on behalf of a class which consists of all employees of the former Pittsburgh Corning asbestos plant in Tyler, Texas, and on behalf of survivors of employees who allegedly died from exposure to asbestos. In addition, thirteen other individuals have tried to join after the suit was brought initially. Secondly, there is a suit brought bv Lester Kay, which is not a class action. ' A class action is a suit brought by one or more individuals which,. if won, would benefit all other people who fall within the category described in the class allegations. If these individuals are suc cessful, any of the employees of the Tyler plant would be able to claim damages, assuming the suit is permitted to proceed as a class action. The total claim for the class is $100-million. The basis of the claim is pulmonary diseases and deaths caused alleg edly by exposure to asbestos. The charges have been brought against Pittsburgh Corning, which operated the plant, against PPG Industries, Corning Glass Works, Inc., Dr. Lee Grant, Industrial Health Founda tion, certain amosite mining companies (North American Asbestos Corporation, E. G. N. E. P., Ltd., and The Cape Asbestos Co. Ltd.) and ATI. I'd like to read to you the charges against PPG, Corning and Pitts burgh Corning, "Defendants PPG Industries, Inc., and Corning Glass Works, Incorporated,have been aware of the conditions existing at the Pittsburgh Corning plant at Tyler, Texas, which gave rise to the damages sustained by Plaintiffs. Said corporations, although knowing of the dangers and hazards, and being in a position to correct defi ciencies at the said plant because of their beneficial ownership and right to control and manage Pittsburgh Corning Corporation have fail ed to correct such deficiencies or warn the employees thereat of the dangers of exposure to asbestos and the concentration present therein, such acts being of omission and commission and constituting negli gence and gross negligence and the cause of the injuries and damages alleged herein." The key, then, is failure to correct alleged defi ciencies or to warn of the existence of the alleged dangers. The charges against ATI, are: "Asbestos Textile Institute...has carried on a practice of impeding the flow of information concerning the health hazards involved in asbestos manufacture and, as a result of such activities, has caused or contributed to the lack of informa tion by employees of the said industry...", and that this caused the damage. The key, then is stopping others from warning the employees. These are the allegations. . more Page 2 - Remarks of Legal' Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/8/7A- A recent development in another case, entitled Borel vs. Fiberboard Paper Products Corporation, deserves mention in"connection with the Tyler lawsuits. The charge against PPG, Corning, and Pittsburgh Corning in Tyler is primarily failure to warn, which is similar to the charges that were brought tv Borel. In the Borel case the em ployee won a judgment in the Federal District Court against six manufacturers of asbestos insulation which this particular employee installed over a period of 30 years. He was dealing with the pro ducts of these various manufacturers--one after another--each fcr a period of a few years. Borel claimed that he was a victim of asbestosis and mesothelioma as a result of his exposure to these products. The Federal District Court granted judgment in his favor, which was affirmed by the Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in September of last year. A motion for rehearing in that case is still pending. The courts held that the manufacturers of the asbestos products were liable for failing to warn users or ultimate consumers of their pro ducts. The theory was that the dangers associated with the products that these companies made were foreseeable. The courts held that there is a duty to warn users and consumers of the products. The courts' theory was based on strict liability, which means no showing of fault or negligence is required. The courts held that a failure to warn was all that had to be shown. The Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit said that as a minimum, a manufacturer must keep abreast of scientific knowledge and dis coveries and advances and is presumed to know what is imparted thereby. According to the findings made by the District Court, the dangers of inhaling asbestos were known to the medical community as early as 1924. The court found that the manufacturers did not issue warnings, recommend wearing respirators, or check to see if their products were being inhaled in levels that exceeded private health standards. Those are the extent of my remarks. I would welcome questions but I have to qualify that invitation to this extent. Because of the nature of this gathering, I cannot discuss the evidence in the Tyler case or any opinions I might have about the merits of com plaints or defenses in the case. Any information that is needed can be obtained through your representatives on the ATI Board of Governors or your house counsel. Questions from the floor: 1) Are you getting any help from the other companies involved? Answer: Yes, indeed. In fact, there were discussions regarding ways in which coo-poration between the defendants could proceed. Naturally, that's a goal to be desired. more Page 3 -- Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI General Meeting - 2/8/7L 2) Could anyone be successful in obtaining suit against the source who supplied information for the complaints? Answer: I went into this in extensive detail at the Board of Governors' meeting, yesterday and again this morning, and I don't feel it would be proper for me to comment here. (Interjection by President Scowcroft--Johns-Manville did not have a representative at the Board of Governors' meeting. I think that Gene Leff will take care of informing T. P. Jackson or someone at J-M and respond to that question.) 3) You use the term amosite but you do not use the terms crocidolite, tremolite or chrysotile. Is there any reason for that? Answer: The plaintiffs in the Tyler case have specified they are only going after amosite producers, in particular those who supplied asbestos to the Tyler plant. 4) Will you answer the question concerning liability at some future time, in your capacity as our attorney--or where will we get that information? Answer:'I have already given it to the Board of Governors and, of course, will give further developments as each takes place. In addition, I welcome any inquiries, on an indi vidual basis, by mail, phone or otherwise, from any of the companies represented in ATI. 5) As a member of ATI, I'm looking to ATI to tell me of my liabili ties. We're in this together. Will ATI tell me my liability as a member? (President Scowcroft stated that this question was posed by an Associate Member, a category of membership that is not represented on the Board.) Answer: I prefer not to comment on the matter at this forum. May I be permitted to consider the appropriate way to handle the matter? I assure you of a response at a later time.6 6) Will we get a copy of Legal Counsel's report (asked especially on behalf of an interested member who had to leave the meeting early)? Answer: The membership is assured that a complete copy of my remarks will be included with the Minutes of this meeting, which Minutes will be sent to the entire membership. The OSHA Act and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Pare 2 bystander rather than a participant. We are .most interested to hear what industry has to say about polyvinyl chloride exposure. I might mention another thing in which you will be interested. Last May, we had two temporary emergency standards which lived the normal six months and then died a natural death. By artificial respiration, and heart massaging, the carcinogen standards have come back to life -- this time as 14 separate standards. This is something that you should look at because of the association of cancer with asbestos dust and these other cancer-producing materials. I recognize they are not one and the same, but still there is some relationship. Now let us talk about the way we should operate -- you as an industry, and we as an enforcement agency dealing with you. Ifm not going to tell you any secrets, but I will tell you some ways I feel we can continue the good standing we have with one another, and yet get the job done. First of all, the OSHA Act came into being because of a fragmented participation of 50 States in a safety program. Tr.is will assure us, I hope, of a uniform program that will be enforced nationwide, pretty much with the same standards and pressures that cause things to be done. We in Region IV have four of our eight states parti cipating. We feel that the participating States will be looked at and will be expected to do exactly what the Act says -- and that is to carry out a program that is equally as effective as that_ which the Federal people were following at the time1they took it over. We will continue to monitor these people for some three years and if everything continues to go well, we will bid them adieu and let them deal with you. If things are not as we had hoped, then we will immediately re-engage ourselves into the program. So far, we have continually had good working relations with these people -- the same as we have had with you. We just this week met with representatives of six of the eight States in Region IV (all eight were invited to participate in a meeting in Atlanta). We sat down around a table and discussed a subject in which you and I are interested, and that is a uniform standard interpretation. Right now, a standard interpretation is being made by three different groups of people -- by the National Office of OSHA, by the Regional Office of OSHA, and by the State OSHA program, all three should be saying the same thing if we all are "telling it like it is." We believe that some headway is being made in this endeavor. Now I would like to relay how we feel we can enforce a program that will carry out the interest of the Act, which states that every working man and woman in the Country will have a safe and healthful more The OS Hi -iCt and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Page 3 environment in which to work. That's the entire justification for the existence of our programs. There are two aspects of our program that apply to you and they are not something that we can take care of as we tan the lights in the room, by turning the switch on and off. The situation did not happen over night and we are not going to solve it over night, just because we have some Federal standards ?.ud regulations that address themselves to the problem. We recognize this and try to set forth a program whereby we will be just as patient as you will allow. The only way that we can be patient is for you to continue to show sufficient progress in these fields so we can keep everybody on all sides happy. We feel if we approach the matter in this way, that everyone can live with it. We must think, first of all, about asbestos. I think it would be somewhat redundant for me to talk to you about the 1910.93c para graph of the OSHA Act. If I want to knew something about asbestos, I would coma to you for the information. If anybody knows that por tion of the OSHA Act that addresses itself to asbestos, you do. Therefore, I'm not going to bore you by reading and discussing this standard with you. However, if you have a question about it at the end of this presentation, I'll try to answer it. If I cannot give you an answer, then leave your name and address with me and I will see that you receive an answer in writing. When we are thinking about asbestos dust, especially in the textile aspect, we recognize that we have a problem to deal with. For instance, it is difficult to card asbestos fibers where the whole purpose of the carding is, first, to remove foreign material and, second, to remove short fibers or fine dust so a good quality pro duct can be obtained. This, within itself, is a dusty operation. If we could just remove ourselves from having been involved with all of the machinery and facilities that we now have, and start over, I think that all of us would be interested in looking into some of the facilities like we saw from the slides this morning of a tour made by one of your members of a modem facility in Germany. The problem, of course, is that we are not starting at the beginning. We are. working with some facilities that do not lend themselves very well to effective control methods. For about k0 years we have been concerned with one thing, primarily -- turning out a good pro duct and at an economical price. Since 1970 we have had to be concerned with producing a good product at an economical price and in a safe and healthful environment. Now that another rule has been added to the game, we must inject another facet to the program. I face the same situation when deal ing with cotton textiles. The difference between a cotton and an asbestos textile operation is that perhaps you received some of more The OSHA Act and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Page 4 your equipment from the cotton textile manufacturer and apparently this equipment never wears out. In 1968 I looked at some brand new cotton cards that were placed right beside some 1900 models and the basic difference was the color that the machines were painted. The later models operate a little faster -- raising more du3t and gen erating a little more noise. Also, having worked as a young boy in the textile industry, I found the difference in the industry between the early 1940's and the 1970*s is that we now have about one-third more machines operating but in the same amount of floor space. That, too, makes more dust and more noise. So you see that really for the last few years, you might say we have been working against ourselves in accomplishing that which we now desire. Recognizing we must start from where we are, we are willing to work with you in trying to accomplish compliance with the OSHA Act as expeditiously as you can, as long as you can bear it economically, and so long as you can accomplish it with the technology available to you. All of that is some fancy language to tell you that if you believe you have a long-range abatement program that will take over 30 days to accomplish, then we would be willing to work out a plan with you so that you could program it over an extended period of time. What we ask of you is that you develop a plan whereby you will accom plish this compliance and every 30 days you apprise us of what you have thus far accomplished, or what has been tried and proven in effective. We then would petition the Review Commission stating we think this is reasonable and that, at the same time, we feel we are getting compliance. There is a third party that occasionally enters into the picture -- the employee representative, or the union. They also have to be satisfied. I am not aware of any major problems in Region IV in satisfying the unions that we have taken a reasonable approach. They do not agree with the practice of fitting a man with a respira tor and then telling him he only has 20 more years to work, - "so wear the respirator for the next 20 years and then maybe 25 years from now we will have a solution to the problem". That may be how long he has to wear a respirator, but we call this an interim period. It might only be 20 months or 20 days that he will have to wear the ?rotective device until we discover a solution. At any rate, as an nterim measure we want this man protected. To elaborate just a bit -- I will remove your appendix for $30.00, but the local hospital charges $300.00. Is there anyone here who would like me to remove his appendix? No, you all want the $300.00 operation! Why? Because when somebody is to perform an operation on you, you want the best that money can buy. But when we begin to think about a respirator program, what do we do? We buy the cheap est respirator we can find. And when we buy that respirator, we then say we have a respirator program. But, that compares with a $30.00 appendectomy, not a $300.00 operation. What's the difference? more The 05 HA and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Page 5 The difference is the difference there is between major surgery and minor surgery. Think about it. If it's your life, you want the best that money will buy. But when we're" dealing with that employee out there, we want the cheapest respirator that we can get away with. We feel that a respirator program involves more than just buying a respirator. This is all outlined in the Standard and there is no use elaborating here. So many times we talk to people who are buying personal protective equipment, but we are not talking about buying personal protective ewuipment at all. We are talking about buying a program of person al protection. There's a big difference. Sometimes when we become involved in (what we call) personal pro tective programs, we buy a respirator, hand it to the worker, and say that we "hate to hand this to you but the Federal Government is requiring me to make you wear it". Gentlemen, I believe you can buy a respirator that will protect a man eight hours a day against asbestos dust. I'm not convinced you can hire a supervisor who can make that man wear it eight hours a day. There is a limit to what a man will stand. I've worn respirators for six and eight hours a day and know just how uncomfortable they are. They weren't intended for wearing 6-3 hours a day. There are a few things that will take us a while to engineer out, and dust control is one of them. So, for the time being, we may have to resort not to buying a personal protective respirator but to buying a personal protection program, issuing it to the worker and seeing to it that it is carried out. Remember that the initial investment may not be all there is to it. Therefore, the cheapest respirator, in the long run may not be the most economical one to buy. And I know it is not the best one to buy. I did a little mathematics for a company one time in this di rection and showed them that what they were buying was costing about twice as much as that which would offer proper protection. So, even the dollar figure was on the wrong side of the ledger. Mow, back to engineering control. We know there are many things we can do to decrease the level of dustiness in the plants, maybe not as we see them today but as we look back on them as conditions were a few years ago. While we are getting these things done, we will have to resort to some interim measures. A personal protective program is one of the measures we believe in. I recently received a call from a hygienist asking for some ofmy philosophies. He asked about a maintenance man involved in this type of thing. I responded they should face the facts. Obviously there is something wrong, or a maintenance man wouldn't be called in. If there ever was a man with respect to whom it would be sat isfactory to supply him with personal protective equipment and tell him"this is your personal protective equipment for this operation", more The OSHA Act and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Page 6 it is a maintenance man. Maybe he will be working only one hour, or maybe 15 hours. You know when he is called in to fix a machine that has broken down during production, you don't want him to leave the job until everything is right again. We don't know how long that man is going to be in there, but he may need to use personal pro tective equipment. Not only that, you know it's awfully hard to develop an engineering control for a maintenance man because it takes about as long to install the engineering control as it would for the man to handle the required maintenance. So, we don't expect it in instances such as these. But there are people working in the plants day in and day out, and we anticipate they should have engineering controls -- moving as fast as technology and economics will allow. I don't want to spend the entire afternoon talking about dust, but let me just close by pointing out that between 194C and I960, our consumption of asbestos increased about twenty fold. It had reached the point where we had to have some asbestos m everything including the cereal we ate for breakfast. Then all at once we recognized that something may be a little bit wrong with this. So, we saw the start of a movement that received considerable publicity. It now has come to the point where we read that if I'm standing on the street corner and there is a big truck coming down the street, and the light turns red, that I must flee for my own protection, because that truck is going to be stopped by asbestos brake linings and I'm liable to develop asbestosis because of standing out there. That sounds a bit ridiculous, but then again, think about the policeman who stands on the street directing traffic for long periods and dur ing rush hours--when lots of trucks are starting and stopping. Now somewhere between eating it for breakfast and not even being able to stand on the street corner where trucks stop, there must be a happy medium with which we as an enforcement agency, and you as an industry, can live. I'm convinced there is much said about asbestos that would be better left unsaid, and that there are lots of things that ought to be said about asbestos that have not been said. There is room for improvement in our industry insofar as asbestos exposures are concerned and I feel that with time we will accomplish great progress. Do you know what happened this morning? After 84 days, a crew of men has gone to the moon and come back. This is not the first time people have done this. Now you mean to tell me we have engineers who can develop a device that can go to the moon and stay that long a period of time and people can survive in a different atmosphere, and return to Earth, and everything still be all right? Just give us time and we, too, will effectively control asbestos dust. Be lieving this, we in this Region are going to be just as patient with you as you will let us be. more The OSHa ct and How It Relates to asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown Page 7 We have many young lawyers on the staff who are anxious to earn a livlihood. When we get into the legal category, people play for keeps. Our attorneys are there to advise us as to what is and what is not legal. We want things to be done in a legal manner. (I've been told that I don't want justice, but that I just want to legalize everything--and that's partly right; I probably couldn't survive justice.) At any rate, let's keep this thing where you are making the progress that is required, expected and needed. As long as you are showing good faith, I think I would have to say that the lawyer representing the industry would have everything working in his favor when he went before a hearing judge. Another problem that you have is noise. It is a problem typical in the entire textile industry and not just in asbestos textile manufacture. I remember going into a Ford Motor Company plant a few years back that had a long-range, long-term noise and hearing conservation program in operation. After we were briefed on what they were doing, someone asked how long the plant had had a noise problem. The answer was "May 20, 1969". That's when the first na tional noise standards were promulgated. A lot of us didn't have a problem until 1970 and then we found out we had a noise problem. This is another problem that will require technological develop ments, and probably some that we do not have or that is not being used to best advantage at this point. This problem, too, will pro-' bably necessitate a long-range program. I guess it depends upon whether we're talking about control or reduction. (This would be the case for noise or dust.) So long as you are making a signifi cant contribution to the reduction of noise, then we think you should proceed with your research. So many times, what happens at informal hearings with industries such as textiles, woodworking and metal stamping, is that a man sits down and asks what we want him to do. We tell him to knock 5 deci bels off the noise level. But, he says, "that's only 5 and is a long way from a 9-decibel reduction. Are you going to tell me I'm in compliance when I reach 100?" Well, you know, that's an interesting question. He isn't. But he may have done all he can do at the present time and perhaps he already has taken out about two-thirds of his noise, making a great contribution to noise reduction. Not only that, he probably has learned enough in accomplishing this 5 decibel reduction that if he's not careful he will discover he has reduced the noise level B decibels instead of 5. At any rate, we feel that that is what you should do. I am told that compliance is like pregnancy. There's no in-between -- you either are or you're not. But so far we have been able to get some of the "inbetweens." So long as a man can significantly reduce the noise level, we expect him to do it. If he has gone as far as he can, then he will have to resort to some interim measures such as personal protective devices. more The OS tin Act and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown page 8 Again it is easy to buy a pair of plugs;'they come small, medium and large and can be available to the worker for a quarter via a vending machine. You know the small ones are not nearly as uncom fortable as the large ones. So, what's the man going to get? My doctor tells me that because I need a size 11 shoe for my right foot, that I also need a size 11 for my left foot. But this is not neces sarily true with my ear canals and I might not need the same size ear plug in both ears. In some cases, a man might take a large ear plug in one ear and a small one in the other. Ear protection is just like respirator protection. We need to es tablish a continuing and effective hearing conservation program. As you will recall, the man now playing 1st fiddle for OsHA made a statement a couple years ago that no citations would be issued for the lack of audiometric testing. He was speaking as Deputy Assist ant Secretary of Labor. We believed him and have not issued any. That doesn't mean we haven't cited anybody who doesn't have an audiometric testing program. We use a little different wordage in our citation, saying "failure to have a continuing and effective hearing conservation program." How do you have a "continuing and effective hearing conservation program," without a way to measure noise? What do you do about soil conservation? What is done.about all the other conservation pro grams in existence? Those people or companies running these other programs have ways to measure the effectiveness of their programs. And, there is a way to measure the effectiveness of a hearing con servation program. It's called audiometric testing. If you know of another way to measure, we would be glad to hear about it and to consider it. If it is better than audiometric testing, we will give you credit for it. However, if audiometric testing is better than your method, then that's the method we want you to follow to evalu ate your hearing conservation program. We anticipate there soon will be some new noise standards published. I have with me a copy of working draft #4 and I can tell you that audiometric testing will be required. Not only will this method be required, but you will be told where to take the tests, how to take them, and the person who gives them will have to meet certain requirements. As you can see, we will be removing a lot of the questions from our noise standards. I think there are a couple of other items I should mention, hur riedly. Both the dust and the noise control programs are recognized as having to be long-range projects. If you have good, fast-growing programs, don't relax. We want you to keep them moving. We also want you to know that we are aware that technology move's just so fast, and we do not want you to get more The OSHA Act and How It Relates to asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown page 9 into trouble by outrunning the speed of technological progress. Another program that I should mention to you is machine guarding. This is a program that you should get into immediately. You know what the standard says about machine guarding. Many of the machines have to be considered individually, but basically we have a barrel from which we can take a cup of machine guarding and we can tell where we stand. This is not something that requires a long-range program. Another item is our electrical program. We have adopted the new electrical code as our standard and that's what we are measuring by unless you have an old plant. It is up to you to look at the standard and determine whether or not you have to meet this electri cal code. These are four things that I believe we in OSHA would be looking at if we were in an asbestos textile operation today. These are four things in which I think you people can make much progress. In the last two, you can move rapidly toward compliance. With the first two, you can develop your plan and a program. We do not have any secrets. If you develop a research program, then be sure that you document it and get benefit from it. Another problem is caused by a lack of communication between corpor ate management and plant supervision. If we go into an asbestos textile plant and determine it has excessive dust and excessive noise, we obviously ask what the company has done about it. Do you know what we hear too many times from the plant managers? "Not a thing that I know of!" Well, you know, that's not even showing good faith. We've had two years to get something started on these programs. So, we feel we should cite you, and sometimes should cite you for a serious violation. But then when we sit down with the company, we are told about a fantastic program it has going. The problem was that they forgot to tell that particular plant about it. Be sure that you inform your plant managers that you do have these programs going and that you are planning to do something about it. I would even go beyond that. Be sure that the plant manager informs the first-line supervisors and that they pass it on down so that even the man who sweeps the floors knows about it. Doing this would re duce the amount of complaints we receive. (Prior to opening the meeting to answer questions from the floor, Mr. Brown distributed two pieces of literature to the membership. The Executive Secretary of ATI has a limited "surplus" supply on hand and will be glad to send a copy of each or both to any member who requests same. They are: 1) Target Health Hazards/Asbestos: Airborne Danger, reprinted from the Mav-June 19*72 issue of SafeTv standards. more The OSHA Act and How It Relates to AsDestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown page 10 2) Card showing locations and telephone numbers of OSHA's Southeastern Area Offices together with toll-free numbers for those calling from outside the area. It is for use in contacting your nearest OSHA Office for information about OSHA '70, Standards, en forcement procedures, and the like. This is a 24-hour information service. Mr. Brown advised that his Office is responsible for coordinating the small business activity. If you can show you are a small company and that to comply with OSHA Standard puts a financial hardship on you, you can borrow money at a low-interest rate and obtain what is called "disaster funds" to finance the programs required) QUESTIONS FROM THE FLOOR Question 1) L. E. Moody, H. K. Porter Company, Inc.--Would you con sider work going on within an organization such as the ATI, of which all of our companies are members, as part of all of the companies' plans? Answer: Yes, so long as all of the companies are participat ing in the work and so long as the information is made avail able to all the members so that when information is developed it can be incorporated into programs at all of their plants. This certainly should be recorded and included in the com pliance plan. Question 2) J. W. Hawkins', Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.--Do you have any immediate plans for the State of South Carolina? Answer: South Carolina has been carrying out an asbestos dust program for about a year. The State can address any issue in the Standard, but it cannot take parts of an issue. The four of the eight States in Region IV that are carrying out OSHA programs are South Carolina, North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee. What we are doing is monitoring the programs to be sure they are at least as effective as OSHA programs. Question 3) R. T. Matthew, Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.--Is it correct that so long as we have open Federal citations, the State will not step in? Answer: Yes. The State will wait until we have completed, after which we will turn it over to the State. The State may turn right around and decide to inspect that same company. On the other hand, the State may determine that since a Federal inspection had just been made, it will wait a year or more before scheduling a visit. That's their prerogative. On any The OSHA Act and How It Relates to Asbestos Textile Manufacture By: Cois M. Brown page 11 open citations that we have, we like to stay with it and fol low the matter until it is settled. That's the only enforce ment activity, other than Maritime, that we will have in the State of South Carolina. Question 4) E. A. Morris, Uniroyal, Inc.--Is that the relationship between the Federal and state inspections in Georgia? Answer: Georgia went through its plan about a year ago. The Governor said he wanted nothing to do with it. The State of Georgia has been preempted. They have no inspectors any more. They could inspect elevators under some State regulation that OSHA does not address. We started the same thing in the State of Florida and in Mississippi. The latter learned the general rule that it was unconstitutional for a State employee to en force a Federal Standard. As of January 31, 1974, the people in the State of Florida cancelled their contract with us. Question 5) J. W. Hawkins, Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.--Referring to South Carolina only, am I correct that you would like to see that the State issue additional citations, rather than from the Federal level? Answer: Right, speaking strictly about South Carolina. IN CONCLUSION: Although OSHA is for real, at the same time it tries to be human and handle matters in a gentlemanly manner. Both the regional and area office people have been admonished to be sure that industry re ceives every possible benefit and still make industry aware of the fact that OSHA must fulfill its obligation to ensure a safe and healthful working environment. I would remind you that anyone from the industry level has the prerogative of an informal conference. We have had some industry people visit us who have been very upset about certain citations, but after an informal conference the matter was more clearly understood. One more thing. Be careful who handles your asbestos sampling. A case in point is an informal conference held about 3 weeks ago in Atlanta. A man came in with his defense and he had a set of samples that had not been properly collected, weighed and calculated as to the number of fibers on the filter paper. His sampling resulted in a fantastically low count, about four decimal points over and then a one. Of course, we challenged his figures and the man agreed, saying he had just talked with his corporate headquarters and was advised that his samples were erroneous. --End-r- Minutes GENERAL MEETING Asbestos Textile Institute JUN 7- 1974 ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE General Meeting t June 7, 1974 Twin Bridges Marriott, Arlington, Virginia In Attendance AMATEX CORPORATION J.

President Scowcroft officially welcomed the small but select group in attendance. He stated that the reason for the lesser amount of attendees was, of course, that the subject of the meeting was the Texas Litigation and that none of the usual committee activities had been scheduled. He then requested that each in attendance rise and give his name and business affiliation. The list is as per page 1 of these Minutes. 2. Upon calling for the reading of the Minutes of the last stated meeting, it was moved by E. A. Morris, seconded by G. G. Gabrielson, Jr., and so carried, to dispense with the reading of said minutes. 4. The President called for the Financial Report. Treasurer Morris gave the report, briefly as follows and in detail as per the attached Report of Funds as of Mhy 15, 1974. Total on Hand as of September 1, 1973 (the beginning of the current Fiscal Year) was $16,115.56; re ceipts from book sales, dues, etc., were $15,279*93; disbursements amounted to $21,023.53 (the bulk of which were for litigation costs and attorneys' fees); and the Balance on Hand as of May 15, 1974, amounted to $10,369.96. This figure should further be reduced by some $2000.00 for an unanticipated litigation expense which means as of today the net worth of the organization is approximately $5000.00. It was moved by C. E. Stiefken, seconded by A. Kuzmuk, and so carried, to accept the Financial Report as presented. The report will be filed for audit. . It was reported by President Scowcroft that the 1974 Annual Meet ing of the Institute will be held, as scheduled, at The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia, Wednesday through Friday, September 25-27, 1974. The meeting will include regular committee meetings and reports and a Fibre Producers1 Report. He further advised the Executive Secre tary will mail the meeting notices to the general membership earlier than usual since The Cloister has recently established the policy of requiring a $75.00 advance deposit for each room by mid-August. 6. The following matters concerning membership were announced by the President. Johns-Manville Corporation has changed its status in the ATI in that it has dropped its Class A/Regular Member classification, but the membership has been picked up by Canadian Johns-Manville Co. Ltd. C.J-M is now the ATI member company as a Class C/Associate, which is the category for miners of asbestos spinning fibers. The President expressed it was his pleasure, on behalf of the Institute, to welcome Asahi Asbestos Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan, as a new Class D/Associate Member. 2 C. E. Stiefken informed the President that the Chrysotile Asbes tos Test Manual, 3rd edition, should be available in about six months1 time. President Scowcroft said that further information will be at hand at the 1974 Annual Meeting on Sea Island. more............. Page 3 ATI General Meeting 6/7/74 8. It was announced by the President that the Board of Governors had voted to form an ad hoc committee. It will operate within the pre sent structure of the Institute and its function and sole purpose will be to provide a forum composed of representatives of both Regu lar and Associate Members, including the miners, to consider litiga tion matters and to make recommendations to the Board of Governors concerning the defense of the pending litigation. This will give the Board the benefit of the thinking of the Institute's total mem bership. The President emphasized that such representatives who sit on the ad hoc committee will have an equal vote on that committee and that the recommendations passed by that committee will be made to the Board of Governors. It is planned that a meeting of the ad hoc committee will take place prior to each ATI Board of Governors' meeting. President Scowcroft advised he had appointed R. B. Von Wald, of Johns-Manville Corporation, as Chairman of the ad hoc committee, with E. C. Bratt, of Southern Asbestos Company, as Vice-Chairman. He then named the following member companies as having expressed the desire to have representation on the ad hoc committee: Amatex Corporation, Asbestos Corporation Ltd., Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd., Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd., Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd., Nicolet Industries, Inc., Nippon Asbestos Co. Ltd., Garlock Inc., Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc., Southern Asbestos Company, TBA Industrial Products Ltd. and Uniroyal, Inc. He requested that each of these companies designate its representative to sit on the ad hoc committee and that other member companies who are interested in being represented on the ad hoc committee should so advise Mr. Von Wald, himself or the ATI Executive Secretary. As Chairman of the ad hoc committee, Mr. Von Wald said that the committee is designed as a means by which Associate Members can obtain information about the Texas Litigation and can provide input into the Board of Governors of any thoughts concerning the defense and posture of the case and actions they think may be necessary with respect to the litigation. The committee is designed strictly for the litigation and not for any other purpose. He hopes initial ly to make contact with everyone who is interested--or they may write him at Johns-Manville Corporation, Greenwood Plaza, Denver, Colorado #0217. He said the litigation is important to each company, even though it may not have individual exposure, and that it is a critical litigation for industry in general, as well as for the asbestos industry in particular. Following an inquiry from the floor, Mr. Von Wald concurred that the lawyers active on the ad hoc committee would represent ATI mem ber companies and would consider positions that ATI should take. In answer to another question, Mr. Von Wald stated it is not the intent of the ad hoc committee to supervise the litigation. The li tigation is supervised by the ATI Board of Governors. The ad hoc committee is designed as a medium through which the Associate Members can have a voice in what goes on and can get specific information about the litigation. Under the present structure of the ATI, the primary responsibility for the Institute lies with the Board of Governors only. mcr Page 4 ATI General Meeting 6/7/74 9. President Scowcroft confirmed the information that previously had been sent to the general membership in that ATI has redesignated its legal counsel from Cadwalader, Wickersham 4c Taft to Hull, Towill Norman, Barrett and Johnson, or more specifically, to Wendel B. Alcorn, Jr. This change was made with the unreserved blessing of Cadwalader, the primary reason being that Cadwalader had recommended Wendell Alcorn as Trial Counsel for the Texas Litigation and that as that litigation proceeded it became clear both to ATI and to Cadwal ader that the substantial function of ATI's counsel, at least for the short term, would be to defend these cases. It became obvious that the most efficient and economical method of conducting the defense was through the retention of one law firm to act both as Trial Counsel and as General Counsel. On behalf of the ATI, President Scowcroft expressed delight in having Wendell Alcorn again working with us. 10. President Scowcroft reiterated that the 1974 Annual Meeting of the Institute will be held as scheduled. It is the intent of the Board of Governors to keep the Institute going but it must marshall its resources in order to be able to afford the cost of the litiga tion. 11. The President then turned the meeting over to Trial Counsel for a briefing on the progress of the cases pending in Tyler, Texas. His remarks are recorded in a "Memorandum of Attorney-Client Confer ence, June 7, 1974" and which is available for inspection by members of ATI at the Office of the Executive Secretary. 12. There being no further* business to be brought before the member ship, a move for adjournment was made by A. Kuzmuk, seconded by C. E. Stiefken, and so carried. The meeting was adjourned at 11:30 a.m Respectfully submitted, Doris M.

Corson Uniroyal, Inc. B. E. Carden A report on a recent OSHA inspection at a member company's plant wa discussed -- specifically concerning the weaving area where the dus level was measured by OSHA as being over "5", thus requiring the em ployees to wear respirators. Having received a request for their assistance and cooperation, the employees worked with management and were able to reduce the dust counts to a point low enough, for a period of three months, so that it was permissible for the workers to remove their respirators. After due consideration and a full discussion, the Committee res pectfully submits the following recommendations to the ATI Board of Governors for further action: 1) In order to improve the time-weighted average, it is the Committee's recommendation that a different method be used to obtain dust samples, i.e.-- a) In the taking of dust counts, the filter intake valve should be placed in the breathing zone area; C+ W more Page 2 - Minutes/Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee - 9/26/74 b) Dust-count checks on a time-weighted average should be based on a number of 1/2-hour checks over an 8-hour period; 2) Audiometric readings should be used to determine noise levels. L. E. Moody, a member of the Committee, presented a comprehensive and informative report on the work of the Standards and Technical Committee of the Asbestos Information Association/North America. a written account of his presentation is affixed as Attachment I to this Report. During the past two years it has been a real pleasure to serve as Chairman of the Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee. I had an outstanding group of people with which to work and my thanks go to the Committee and to the ATI for their fine interest, help and cooperation. Respectfully submitted, Buel E. Carden, Chairman Attachment I Minutes/Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee - 9/26/74 RE: STANDARDS AND TECHNICAL COMMITTEE, ASBESTOS INFORMATION ASSOCIATION/NORTH AFRICA Prepared and Presented by L. E. Moody, Southern Asbestos Company Late in 1973, the Board of Directors of the Asbestos Information Association/North America decided to form a committee to assist them in matters concerning Standards and technical information. Accordingly, Edmund M. Fenner, of Johns-Manville Corporation, was assigned to chair the Committee and each AIA/NA member company designated a representative to serve as a Committee member. A Committee Organization Meeting was called by Mr. Fenner for Feb ruary 6, 1974, at Newark, New Jersey. At that gathering, the first major assignment was given to the Committee, i.e., working with the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration; and more speci fically, working directly with the Standards Division of OSHA con cerning Standard 1910.93a -- the Asbestos Standard. The assignment was to include the preparation of ''Work Practices" for the asbestos industry. The responsibility of preparing ''Work Practices" for the asbestos textile industry was assigned to Larry Moody, with assistance to be given by C. Kennedy, the representative on the Committee from Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. At the February 1974 meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute, held at Charleston, South Carolina, assistance was also solicited from Hans H. Walter, of Amatex Cor poration, and from Buel E. Carden, of Uniroyal, Inc., to prepare information concerning asbestos textiles. Since Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Moody were geographically located near each other (Charlotte and Monroe, North Carolina), they met brief ly on two occasions before calling together the group of four at Charlotte on February 25, 1974. They soon learned that although they all had departments called Preparation, Carding, Spinning, Twisting and Weaving Departments, there were substantial differ ences in each area. They, therefore, prepared a ''Recommended Work Practice," very general in nature but one that was adaptable to all methods known to be in use. Mr. Fenner called a four-member Task Group meeting in the offices of AIA/NA, at Washington, D.C., on April 9-10, 1974. The four in dividuals concerned were Messrs. Fenner and Moody, John P. McGinley more Attachment I - Page 2 Minutes/Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee - 9/26/74 Re: Standards and Technical Committee, AIA/NA of Certain-teed Products Corporation, and Frank H. Zimmerman of National Gypsum Company. The Task Group discussed progress to date concerning the preparation of the "Work Practices." On the next day (April 10th), the Task Group met with John P. O'Neill and Harry Gilbert at the OSHA Standard Office. (Mr. O'Neill is Chief of the Division of Health Standards. Mr. Gilbert is the Project Officer in charge of the Asbestos Standard.) The purpose of the meeting was to review progress and to submit to Mr. O'Neill rough drafts of six typical "Work Practices" for his review and comment. It was understood that this was only rough material and was not to be considered as "submitted" work. Any work cr material submitted formally would require the approval of the AIA/NA Board of Directors. Basically, the Task Group wanted to know if the material it was working on would be useful and was the type of information that could be incorporated into standards, if it were prepared in the proper manner. At the time, OSHA was con templating a complete revision of the Asbestos Standard 1910.93a, or at least was gathering all available information to that end. Another meeting was held April 24th in Washington, D.C., attended by the entire AIA/NA Standards and Technical Committee and by Mr. Gilbert. (Mr. O'Neill was ill at the time.) At the start of the meeting it was immediately apparant that a major change had taken place. On April 15th, the U.S. Court of Appeals had handed down a decision in favor of OSHA in the Industrial Union Department . (AFL/CIO) suit. This court decision vastly decreased the emphasis on "Work Practices." The Asbestos Standard 1910.93a had been up held. ' Rewriting or revising the Asbestos Standard is not now deemed ad visable. There may be amendments made to the Standard, such as a reference to "Work Practices," that would apply to all segments of the asbestos industry -- housekeeping, entering fiber to process, waste or scrap disposal, etc. The AIA/NA Standards and Technical Committee will proceed with the preparation of "Work Practices" on a recommended basis. In all probability the writings will be recognized and/or recommended by OSHA, but will not.be mandatory. It is possible that where a re cognized "Work Practice" is in use, less monitoring would be required. During the most recent meeting of the Committee, on September 10th, again held in Washington, D.C., a review was made of all written more Attachment I - Page 3 Minutes/Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee - 9/26/74 Re: Standards and Technical Committee, AIA/NA material, recommendations, etc., that it had submitted to date. It was reaffirmed that the Committee would continue with "Work Practices," in line with procedures and methods of manufacturing asbestos-containing products and to provide information for cus tomers or users of asbestos-containing products. The Committee was invited to remain in D.C. to attend the Industry Government Conference, sponsored by the AIA/NA and held at the 'Mayflower, September 11-12, 1974. The format of the Conference was a series of speakers, with question/answer periods following each presentation. The speakers included: The Hon. John H. Stender, Assistant Secretary of Labor (OSHA); Sheldon W. Samuels, Industrial Union Department (AFL/CIO); Leo Teplow, Special Consultant, Organization Resources Counse lors ; Paul Kotin, M.D., Johns-Manville Corporation; Ian C. Campbell, Quebec Asbestos Mining Association (and Vice President & Secretary-Treasurer, Asbestos Corporation Ltd.); Michel Lesage, M.D., Medical Advisor, QAMA; Maurice R. Eastin, Special Consultant to the Administrator (In dustrial Affairs), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; Daniel P. Boyd, Ph.D., Director, Office of Standards, OSHA; Lloyd B. Tepper, M.D., Associate Commissioner for Science, Food and Drug Administration (HEW); Robert Join, Executive Director, Chambre Syndicale de l'Amiance (The French Asbestos Information Association); Wilfred P.

The Conference was the first of its kind. It was, beyond question, a successful venture and it is hoped that meetings of this type can form a common ground whereby Industry, Government and Labor can define the problems they share and provide the possible means toward establishing "working" answers. MINUTES FIBER RESEARCH & TESTING COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute September 26, 1974 -- The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia The Fiber Research & Testing Committee, ATI, met on Thursday, Sep tember 26, 1974, with the following members in attendance: G. F. A. Brink, Asbestos Corporation Ltd.; D. E. Childers, Southern Asbestos Company; C. E. Stiefken, American Smelting and Refining Company; W. H. Smith, Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd.; R. A. Kuntze, Chairman -- Ontario Research Foundation (Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd.) The main subject discussed was the impending merger with the ATI Technical Committee. After considerable deliberation, it was agreed to join the Techni cal Committee in the form of a sub-committee. This would retain the identify of the Fiber Research & Testing group and would permit the formulation of a suitable and meaningful technical program. After the completion of the Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual, 3rd edition, a new technical program must be established and in this respect, any input from other ATI members would be appreciated. The first technical subject that has been submitted for consider ation is the poor reproducibility of the fiber count procedure via the membrane filter method. The Fiber Research & Testing Sub committee intends to concern itself with the development of better methods of identifying and counting asbestos fibers. However, the Subcommittee will not deal with hardware or with specification problems. The above approach has been discussed with John W. Hawkins, of the Technical Committee, and with Larry E. Moody, of the Environmental Committee, and there seem to be no objections. Respectfully submitted, R. A. Kuntze, Chairman MINUTES TECHNICAL COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Inst-'.tvte September 25 & 26, 1974 - The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia IN ATTENDANCE: Amatex Corporation Southern Aebostoos <Company R/J-I Industrial PPrrooiducts Co Uniroyal, Inc. hi. 7r.i: rkant J.

The only change noticed in this draft from the orig inal version was the introduction of the metric system. The major work during this meeting was the revision of D-62# (Tubu lar Sleeving). This specification was completed and will be forwarded to the Editorial Committee. The Fall ASTM meeting will be held in New York, October 16-17. D-13.14 is scheduled to meet at that time. Special recognition will be paid to Paul Nicodemus, chairman. It was announced that the Fiber Testing Committee will merge with the Technical Committee and an agenda of interest to all must be drawn up for future meetings. Respectfully submitted, John W.

Finkbiner, III, Esq. (Johns-Manville Corporation). The Ad Hoc Committee for the Tyler, Texas, lawsuits convened on Wed nesday afternoon, September 25, 1974. The meeting was chaired by Aaron Finkbiner and, of course, the status of the Tyler cases was the principal item on the agenda. A report from Wendell B. Alcorn, Jr., ATI's Trial Counsel in the Tyler cases, was submitted to the Committee and formed part of the basis of the discussion. As you know, the Tyler cases are two lawsuits in which ATI is one of several defendants. Specifically, ATI is charged with "impeding the flow of information" about health hazards associated with the industrial use of asbestos. ATI has denied the claims of the plain tiffs and also has taken steps seeking to have ATI dismissed from the suits on the ground that the Institute is not subject to suit in Texas. In July the Court in Tyler held oral arguments on several matters of court procedure. Attorney Alcorn atfui'.o.od the sessions. The Court recognized that the cases could become quite complicated and, therefore, will issue an order shortly concerning the procedure to be followed in the cases. In the meantime, the Court has entered a stay order, effectively halting ail procedures in the cases. Once the Court has entered its order on procedure, there are two pending motions awaiting determination. The first motion which will probably be decided is the motion by one of the plaintiffs to have the case proceed as a class action, with that plaintiff acting as the representative of all former workers at the Tyler plant. The next motion for consideration is ATI's motion to dismiss because ATI is not subject to suit in Texas. We believe the Court will al low plaintiffs some discovery (that is, steps taken to learn facts held by different persons or organizations) on this question. It was the consensus of the Ad Hoc Committee members that if a deposi tion (oral questions and answers taken under oath) of ATI is sought, the Executive Secretary of the ATI would be an appropriate witness. A ruling on these motions may not be forthcoming until the end of 1974. Wendell Alsorn will keep the Ad Hoc Committee posted on all significant developments. At the close of the meeting, the financing of the Tyler Litigation was discussed. The topic received further consideration by the ATI Board of Governors. It was decided that a second Special Assessment on the Regular Members of ATI would be appropriate and that Asso ciate Members would be encouraged to contribute in a like manner. REMARKS OF LEGAL COUNSEL Asbestos Textile Institute Annual Meeting September 27, 1974; The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia This morning, I wish to call your attention to a recent change in the legal relationship among employers, employees and third parties In 1970, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration was created and you are familiar with the national legislation that created it. We have had many discussions in the past concerning the effects of OSHA regulations upon the activities and conduct of the business of your companies. I. WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION There is another aspect, however, of the OSHA legislation besides items such as inplant inspections, safety standards and asbestos dust exposure regulations. The 1970 federal legislation created a National Commission on State workmen's compensation laws. That Commission has made a study of workmen's compensation laws through out the 50 States of the Union and has come up with a final report. The Commission's report is not merely a piece of paper. Various State legislatures are changing their workmen's compensation laws on the basis of facts and recommendations contained in that report. One of the States that has .acted is Texas. The reason I focus on Texas is because much of the asbestos-health-hazard litigation has been initiated in the State of Texas, has been decided by courts in Texas, and one of the landmark cases which was decided adversely to the Industry has been affirmed on appeal by the U.3. Court of Ap peals for the Fifth Circuit, which sits in New Orleans. The Texas law governing compensation of employees for injuries sus tained cn the job and for occupational diseases contracted in con nection with their work was changed substantially for the first time since it was enacted in 1913. Many of these changes are irrel evant in the context of the Asbestos Textile Institute, but "here are certain pertinent ones which we shall review this rooming. One major change was the broadening of the coverage of the Texas 'workmen's compensation statute. For example, under prior Texas law companies having no more than three employees were not covered. Well, that is no longer so. Also, employees of State agencies and political entities were not covered. They now can be. There also are substantially increased benefits under the workmen's compensation law. An example: The maximum weekly benefit has been more Page 2 - Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI Annual Meeting - 9/27/74 raised to $63#00 while the minimum weekly benefit has been increas ed to $15.00. Of perhaps greater long-term significance is the fact that there has been built into the Texas workmen's compensa tion law an inflation factor which will result in higher maximum and minimum weekly benefits as the Cost of Living Index rises. There is one very important change that is deserving of our spec ial attention. Prior to September 1, 1973, the insurance carrier, (that is, the one with whom the individual manufacturer or other type of business has its workmen's compensation insurance), had the right to choose the doctor and the medical facilities which would treat an injured or diseased employee. There were certain limitations which affected the right of the insurance carrier to make this choice -- for example, the worker had the right to choose a doctor to render first-aid in an emergency situation. But, generally, the sole choice lay in the insurance carrier. Un der the Texas workmen's compensation statute, as now amended, the employee has the "sole right" to choose the doctor and the medical facility. . That's all well and good. However, there has been much criticism raised in the halls of the Texas Legislature to the effect that the employee's new right to choose will encourage the prolifera tion of what are, perhaps unkindly, referred to as "plaintiffs' doctors". The Texas Legislature also enacted significant changes in that State's compensation laws with regard to third-party actions. A third-party action is like the lawsuit in which ATI is involved in Tyler, Texas. It is an action not against the worker's employer but against a third-party entity -- such as a miner that supplies asbestos fibers to a production plant in Texas; such as a trade association like ATI which the worker claims impeded the dissemi nation of information about the health hazards of working with asbestos. Before September 1, 1973, an employee who allegedly had been harmed by such a third party could not pursue simultaneously an action against his employer and the third party. Now he can do so. He can bring a workmen's compensation claim against his employer in Texas to be decided by the Industrial Accident Board and, at the same time, he can file a third-party suit in the Texas Dis trict Court or the Federal District Court if the jurisdiction is appropriate. The third-party action would probably seek damages far beyond the maximum recovery allowed by the Texas workmen's compensation statute. This has affected the time when an aggrieved worker must bring a lawsuit. Under prior Texas law, the worker could file a workmen's compensation claim with the Industrial Accident Board, wait until more Page 3 - Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI Annual Meeting - 9/27/74 that claim was adjudicated (that is, finally decided) and then, within two years, sue the third party -- the person who supplied the fiber, or the trade association, or whatever other entity might be connected with the particular industrial accident or oc cupational disease. The reason the employee had to sue within two years is that the general statute of limitations in Texas that governs the time in which one must bring suit after he has suffer ed a personal injury is two years. The effect of this on companies doing business in Texas is that a worker who now files a compensa tion claim in Texas and waits until that claim is finally adjudi cated, which may take over two years, and then seeks to bring a third-party action against a supplier, for example, is subject to being barred from pursuing that case by the applicable statute of limitations. It is possible under the new Texas law, which is not too dissimilar to compensation laws which have been adopted in other States, that the worker may sue a third party and choose not to claim against his employer. If the worker has already received compensation benefits from the employees insurance carrier, the insurance com pany may be subrogated to the rights of the worker in the thirdparty action. Let us say, for example, worker John Doe had his arm severed in an industrial accident. He brings a claim for sta tutory workmen's compensation, which is allowed. He then sues the manufacturer of the machine that had the nerve to cut off his arm. He claims the machine was poorly manufactured and did not incor porate appropriate safety factors. The insurance company that paid the original compensation benefits can now intervene in the third-party lawsuit and take up the sword against the manufacturer of the machine. There is also an obligation under the new Texas legislation for compensation insurance carriers to undertake "loss prevention ser vices". I predict that anyone doing business in Texas, or in another State that has adopted a similar provision, will learn about this in the very near future (if they have not already done co). The Texas Insurance Code,, in conjunction with the Workmen's Com pensation Act, has been amended to require carriers to provide accident prevention facilities as a prerequisite to writing insur ance in the State of Texas. This includes educational programs which the insurance companies must offer to insured employers and present to employees through field safety representatives. The State Board of Insurance of Texas has authority to enforce this requirement against the insurance companies. I think particularly in industries such as those producing asbestos materials and asbes tos products, insurance carriers are going to be very careful to present what they view as programs to help prevent occupational disease. The individual companies who operate in States more Page 4 - Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATT Annual Meeting - 9/27/74 that adopt this approach are possibly going to be at odds with some of the presentations which are prepared by insurance carriers The term "occupational disease" has been redefined in the Texas workmen's compensation statute, pursuant to recommendations .by the previously mentioned OSHA Commission. Under the old Texas statute there were listed approximately 31 different occupational diseases (and, incidentially, asbestosis is one of them). The amended de finition is open-ended and, therefore, is subject to broad inter pretation. No longer is there a list of specific occupational diseases to which an employee must refer in order to file a claim for workmen' compensation benefits. Occupational disease is now defined as in cluding "damage or harm to the physical structure of the body occurring as a result of repetitious, physical, traumatic activi ties extending over a period of time." This means that anything which occurs in the workplace long enough that has any adverse, physical effect upon the body is compensable under the workmen's compensation statute. This, at least theoretically, does away with the requirement, which existed under the old law governing workmen's compensation cases, that the employee prove that the alleged occupational disease was the result of an "accident". II. COMPARATIVE NEGLIGENCE There is another subject I would like to address in addition to workmen's compensation. It is directly related to the cases pend ing in Tyler. The date September 1, 1973, has a good deal of significance for Texas lawyers because many legislative changes became effective at that time. In addition to the changes in the workmen's com pensation statute discussed previously, the State of Texas did away with the doctrine of contributory negligence. In the area of tort law, the doctrine of contributory negligence was developed in England many years ago. Essentially, the doc trine says that if an injured person who comes to the court as plaintiff is found to have contributed to the harm of which he complains, he is guilty of contributory negligence. Under the old English common-law viewpoint, it is somewhat analogous to saying that the plaintiff has "unclean hands" with respect to the parti cular accident -- and therefore should not be able to recover any of his damages from the defendant. That remained the law in Texas until September 1, 1973, when Texas adopted the doctrine of comparative negligence. more Page 5 - Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI Annual Meeting - 9/27/74 The practical application of comparative negligence, among those of the various States which adopted it, varies greatly. There are several ver-ions of comparative negligence statutes. Texas enacted a modified comparative negligence statute and adopted a relatively conservative approach, compared to some other States. Generally, the Texas Statute provides: The plaintiff, in order to recover any damages, must be found to have been no more negligent than the defendant. That is, if both the plaintiff and the defen dant are guilty of 50# negligence, the plaintiff can still recover. If the plaintiff is 51# negligent (and bear in mind that this is usually a question for the jury) and the defendant is only 49# neg ligent, the plaintiff is barred from recovery. Remember the commonlaw doctrine of contributory negligence -- if the plaintiff was 1# negligent and the defendant 99# negligent, the^ plaintiff was barred from recovery. So the adoption of comparative' negligence is a big change. Where there are multiple defendants in a Texas case, such as the Tyler litigation, the plaintiff's negligence (for example, if he failed to wear a respirator after he had been instructed to do so), in order for him to recover, cannot exceed the combined negligence of all the defendants. If the plaintiff is awarded judgment against several defendants, each defendant must contribute toward satisfy ing the judgment in proportion to the percentage of his causal neg ligence. For example, assume a plaintiff is found to have been 30# negligent in the cause of the subject accident; Defendant A was 15# negli gent; Defendant B 15# negligent; and Defendant C 40# negligent. In this hypothetical situation, the plaintiff could recover and Defendant A would be required to contribute 15# of the actual dam ages suffered by plaintiff, Defendant B 15#, and Defendant C 40#. If actual damages to plaintiff were $50,000, Defendant A would have to contribute $7,500, Defendant B $7,500, and Defendant C $20,000 -- making a total of $35,000. The plaintiff could not recover the remaining difference ($15,000 between actual and award ed damages) due to his 30# causal negligence. This does not mean, however, that a defendant's liability for dam ages to the plaintiff is necessarily limited to his percentage of total negligence. The Texas statute retains the common-law rule that defendants are jointly and severally liable for the entire amount of the judgment awarded. However, the statute contains an important exception: If a defendant is less negligent than the plaintiff, he is liable only to the extent of his individual neg ligence. This exception to the general rule of joint and several liability of multiple defendants does not apply in cases where the more Page 6 - Remarks of Legal Counsel - ATI Annual Meeting - 9/27/74 negligence on the plaintiff's side is less than that of each defen dant. Obviously, the recent adoption in Texas of comparative negligence may have important significance for ATI as a defendant in the Tyler cases. We shall continue to keep you advised as developments in those lawsuits occur. Respectfully submitted, Wendell B.

Stiefken, and so carried, to dispense with the reading of same. 2- Treasurer E. A. Morris presented the Report of Funds of the In stitute for the Fiscal Year to August 31, 1974. On September 1, 1973, the ATI had a balance on hand of $16,113.56. Taking into account receipts during the year of $29,164.03, expenditures of $31,231.20 and nominal amounts for accounts receivable and furni ture and equipment, the total net worth of' the organization at year-end was $14,0o6.76. The latter figure is somewhat misleading because included there in is a Special Assessment to cover the cost of the Tyler Litiga tion. The actual net worth of the Institute is $5,977.73. Looking at the projected budget for the new Fiscal Year, to August 31, 1975, the Institute can reasonably expect to generate an income of $15,350.00 from annual dues, book sales, bank inter est and other miscellaneous items. However, even with a realistic cutback in expenses, it appears the ATI will just about break even after necessary disbursements are made. Combined with this are additional expenditures which must be. '.ade to cover the Tyler Litigation; estimated to cost in the neigh borhood of $12,000.00 through February 1975. This will necessitate mor^ Page 3 ATI Annual Meeting -- 9/27/74 a second Special Assessment on the Regular Members. The first such assessment on the six (6) Regular Members constituted 125$ of each company's regular annual dues. In addition, Johns-Manville Corporation voluntarily contributed a like percentage of the dues it would have paid if it had been a Class A/Regular Member. It must be obvious to all members that ATI will need all the financial help it can get toward proper handling of the Litigation. Within the next few weeks, all members of the ATI will be receiv ing a letter from the President of the Institute requesting contri butions which will be applied against Litigation costs. It is hoped that each member will cooperate to the best of its ability. The complete Report of Funds for the F/Y 1973-74 is attached to these Minutes. Alex Kuzmuk moved that the Report be accepted as presented. The motion was seconded by Guy G. Gabrielson, Jr., and so voted, unanimously. 6. The Fiber Producers Report was presented by Walter H. Smith, having been prepared by William J. W. Smith and approved by all member companies of the Committee. Mr. Smith reported that demand for all grades of asbestos fiber, with the possible exception of certain Group 7 fibers, remains extremely strong. Although news accounts report some new orebodies will be put into production in the next few years, there is no indication that any of the mines will be producing Group 3 Spinning Grade fibers. The entire Re port is attached hereto. 2. The membership was afforded the opportunity to view the excel lent film entitled "Asbestos At Work," produced by the British Asbestosis Research Council and on loan to the ATI via the Asbestos Information Association/North America. The film covers a variety of work practices and situations involving asbestos, some textile and some other, drilling and stripping of insulation, etc. It graphically describes the effective use of dust extraction equip ment, vacuum cleaning, waste disposal, and so forth, and illus trates how proper housekeeping techniques ensure the safety and health of the worker who handles asbestos-containing materials. S. Upon confirming that much of the vital work undertaken by the Institute is accomplished by the Committees, President Scowcroft asked for Committee Reports by the respective Chairmen (a copy of each Report is attached hereto): Air Hygiene & Manufacturing -- Buel E. Carden, Chairman; Fiber Research & Testing -- Richard A. Kuntze, Chairman; Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual -- Charles E. Stiefken; Technical -- John W. Hawkins, Temporary Chairman. Following Mr. Carden's report, President Scowcroft presented him with a plaque as an expression of ATI's appreciation for the fine job he dia as Chairman of the Air Hygiene & Manufacturing more Page 4 ATI Annual Meeting 9/27/74 Committee. Mr. Carden accepted the plaque, giving credit to the members of the Committee and stating it had been a pleasure and a privilege to serve as Chairman for the past two years. . After the report by Mr. Stiefken, President Scowcroft presented him with a plaque, publicly recognizing his service as Chairman of the Fiber Research & Testing Committee. Especially cited was Mr. Stiefken's outstanding work on the Test Manual, one of the most difficult and time-consuming chores of the ATI. President Scowcroft acknowledged Mr. Hawkins' ably acting as Temporary Chairman of the Technical Committee over the last few months and thanked him for ''pitching in" during the interim per iod until a new Chairman had been secured. Due to illness, Lawrence F. Dieringer was not in attendance at the meeting. However, President Scowcroft stated that a plaque and letter of appreciation would be mailed to Mr. Dieringer for the excellent leadership he had performed as Chairman of the En vironmental Health Committee during 1973 and 1974. . President Scowcroft reminded the membership that the Ad Hoc Committee had been established at the last meeting to permit and, in fact, encourage a flow of information between Associate Members and the Board of Governors. A report on the initial meeting of the Ad Hoc Committee was given by A. Kuzmuk in the absence of Aaron Finkbiner, who had to leave the meeting early. The Ad Hoc Committee report is attached to these Minutes. 10. Wendell B. Alcorn, Jr., Esq., presented Remarks of Legal Coun sel. The full text of his remarks is attached hereto. In essence, Attorney Alcorn discussed one of the significant changes in the relationship between employers and employees, brought about by OSHA '70; namely, the creation by Federal legislation of a Nation al Commission on State Workmen's Compensation Laws. 11. It was announced by President Scowcroft that the following Officers were elected by the Board of Governors to serve the Insti tute for the year 1974-75: President--Alex Kuzmuk, Garlock Inc.; Vice President--Edward A. Morris, Uniroyal, Inc.; and Treasurer-- Michael J. Scanlan, Amatex Corporation. 12. Also, Chairman Scowcroft announced important committee changes. The Air Hygiene & ?4anufacturing Committee will be chaired by L. E. Moody and the new Chairman of the Technical Committee is Carroll S. Barnwell. It was further advised that following a long discus sion by the Board of Governors concerning possible changes in ATI's committee structure to make it more meaningful and contribu tory, it was decided to combine the efforts of the Air Hygiene & Manufacturing Committee with those of the Environmental Health Committee. The resultant group will be known as the Environmental Committee. In addition, the Fiber Research & Testing Committee has become a part of the Technical Committee; however, further thought more Page 5 ATI Annual Meeting 9/27/74 \/ill be given to how the committee should be structured so that the Fiber Research & Testing group does not lose its identity. 12. President Scowcroft welcomed Atlas Textile Company, North Wales, Pennsylvania, as a new Class E/Associate Member. The official re presentative of the firm is its President, William H. Johnston. lit. President Scowcroft sadly advised the membership of the death of J. Carroll Johnston, Founder and Chairman of Atlas Textile Com pany. Mr. Johnston is well recognized as one of the pioneers and early leaders in the asbestos textile industry in the United States. 1$. It was regrettably announced by the President that S.A. Francaise du Ferodo, Ferlam Division, Paris, France, had cancelled its Associate Membership in the ATI. 16. On behalf of the Board of Governors, President Scowcroft an nounced that ATI's Legal Counsel had been instructed to begin the necessary process toward incorporating the Asbestos Textile Insti tute. 17. In the interest of economy, President Scowcroft announced that the Board of Governors had determined that future meetings of the ATI should be held in large cities. The necessity for the decision, of course, is based on the serious financial condition of the Insti tute and especially on the extraordinary expenses that will be in curred as a result of the pending litigation in Tyler, Texas. The President expressed sincere regret that, consequently, the ATI must decline the kind offer of the mining member companies of the Insti tute to host the June 1975 Spring Meeting in Quebec City. That reeting will be held June 5-6, 1975, probably in Atlanta, Georgia. Other sites cancelled are the 1975 Annual Meeting in Ponte Vedra Club, Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, and the 1976 Annual Meeting at Savannah Inn & Country Club, Savannah, Georgia. IB. At this point in the meeting the gavel was turned over to Alex Lazmuk, the new Chairman of the Board of Governors and President of che Asbestos Textile Institute. Mr. Kuzrauk accepted the responsi bility with a great amount of pleasure, expressing much awareness of the legal and financial problems which the ATI is currently fac ing. ?,9. As his first official duty, President Kuzmuk presented an Atmos clock to Mr. Scowcroft, in acknowledgment of his two years of hard vork and a job well done as Chairman of the Board and President of ,.TI for 1973 and 197A. Upon accepting ATI's token of esteem and ap preciation, Mr. Scowcroft expressed pleasure in receiving such a beautiful gift, read the inscription to the members present, and thanked all the members for the great friendships he has establish ed within the Institute. He said it had been a true pleasure to more Page 6 -- ATI Annual Meeting -- 9/27/74 work on Institute matters and that he would continue to attend meetings and to support the ATI in any way that he could. 20. President Kuzmuk's second pleasant duty was to present a token of appreciation, in the form cf a lovely terrarium, to ''the strong woman behind a strong loader -- Carolyn Scowcroft." Mrs. Scowcroft read the note that accompanied the gift which expressed the sentiments of the members of the ATI and their wives. She accepted the gift with pleasure, stating it would be a beaiitiful addition to their new home in Charleston, South Carolina. 21. The final announcement made by President Kuzmuk was that the next Winter Meeting of the Institute will be held February 6-7. 1975. at Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 22_. There being no further business to be brought before the member ship, E. A. Morris moved for adjournment. The motion was seconded by M. J. Scanlan and unanimously approved by the attending members. The meeting was adjourned at 10:30 a.m. Respectfully submitted, Executive Secretary ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE Fiscal Year ending August 31, 1974 Report of Funds - (Period: September 1, 1973, thru August 31, 1974) Balance on Hand September 1, 1973 -- General Fund Reserve Fund Petty Cash Fund Receipts Total on Hand at 9/1/73 General Fund - Dues for Year 1973 Book Sales Magnetite Samples Reserve Fund - Dues for Year 1974 Interest to 6/30/74 Special Litigation Fund QAMA Test Manual Deposit Total Receipts ................... $ 2,683.66 13,346.91 87.97 $ 125.00 159.13 25.00 14,250.00 1,236.15 11,250.00 2.116.60 Disbursements Legal Retainer &.

Smith, of Bell Asbestos Mines Ltd., at the ATI Annual Meeting, September 27, 1974, The Cloister, Sea Island, Georgia) . Demand for all grades of asbestos fibres, possibly with the excep tion of certain 7 Group fibres, remains extremely strong. In groups 4, 5 and 6, producers are not able to fill all of the re quirements. While the demand in Group 3 fibres is also strong, requirements seem to be being met except in the very long spin nings. While the possibility of some recession in certain parts of the world has been mooted by some economists, fibre producers do not seem to have an indication as yet that this will have any marked effect on their shipments for the balance of 1974. By early 1975, this situation could change but here again there are no familiar indications that such will be the case. While we have no private knowledge concerning new orebodies said to be coming into production in the next few years, newspaper ac counts indicate that United Asbestos are anticipating first produc tion from their Midlothian Township Mine after mid-year 1975. Quoted figures are in the order of 100,000 tons, but spinning fi bres have not been mentioned as being part of this production. Some newspaper accounts would indicate that the Erinco Organizatio are close to reaching a decision to proceed with the exploitation of the Abitibi Mine in Northern Quebec, with the production of at least 100,000 tons. First production is indicated for some time in 1976 or 1977. Here again, there has been no mention of spin ning fibres. The new Australian mine is currently said to be producing but under receivership conditions. No spinning fibres have been re ported in this orebody. We understand that Pacific Asbestos in California is currently not producing but, of course, this mine did not produce any spinning fibres. In summary, then, it may be said that although new orebodies would appear to be going into production, so far we have not heard of any which would be producing Group 3 fibres. W. J. Smith, Vice President - Marketing Bell Asbestos Mines, Ltd. A33E3T0S TEXTILE INSTITUTE February 7. 1975 F reser.te tion, at Fhiladei y Cr.airr.ar. Aaron : F. Finkbiner, III, Esq., Johns-Manville Corpora .3 AH 1975 "inter lsting held at Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, .a, Pennsylvania. The court in Tyler, Texas, has before it notions filed on behalf of the Asbestos Textile Institute seeking to dismiss both lawsuits on the grounds that the court does r.ot have jurisdiction over ATI because the Institute never was in Texas. The notions have been sitting for more than nine months. The judge has not as r J -~ taken action except to grant the opportunity to the plaintiff to take T -U n.tever discovery he wants. '''Discovery1' is a system whereby parties on both .es of the lawsuit car. seek facts, identity of witnesses, documents, and er things from the opposing side. The plaintiffs in the Yandle and Kay cases have not really directed any discovery efforts toward ATI with an eye to proving that the Institute had sufficient connection with Texas to give the court jurisdiction. We are perfectly content to lot that situation remain as it is. Therefore, the ATI has not taken any affirmative steps of its own in the litigation. Other defendants in the Yandle and Kay lawsuits have also sought to have the case dismissed at the outset. It is against those defendants that the plain tiffs have directed their discovery efforts to try to keep them in the suits. It is expected the judge should rule on the motions on ATI sometime during the next three or four months -- but we will just have to wait and see. We are, however, getting into a more favorable position to suggest to the judge that we have beer, in the case long enough, the plaintiffs have had ample time to develop whatever evidence they want on the jurisdiction question -- and to get the judge ta make a ruling promptly. We are still somewhat optimistic because of the plaintiffs' apparent disinclination to really pursue ATI on this question. r those of you who may not be familiar with the Yandle and Kay lawsuits, in .-tail, easy are cases which former employees of Pittsburgh Corning Corporation gainst that company, its medical director (Dr. Lee Grant), ATI, two rs asbestos that sold fiber to Pittsburgh Corning, etc., alleging various oriss :f recovery vrhich are different as to each defendant. However, icall;- :ho plaintiffs are saving they were injured at the Tyler plant and are isle l \checnoy damages to compensate them for that injury. They are -also Ai:x aunicive damages. In the Yandle case there are now 77 individual plaintiffs. In the Kay case there are 4.6. That is a total of 123 out of a potential of 570 former employ es of Pittsburgh Corning who worked at the plant at Tyler. more Att.V/cage 1 of 2 Ccr.mittee Report - 2/7/75 Dr. Grant's deposition will be taken in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on March 6-7, 19"5. Certainly the court will wait until after that deposition to make a ruling cr. the pending notions. Quite possibly the deposition nay open a whole new set of avenues that the plaintiff will try to pursue before he will agree that ho has enough discovery. Then the judge can rake an infomed ruling on the jurisdictional question. Basically that is the situation. ATI is simply in a "wait and se " position, It is hoped that by the June 1975 neeting of the ATI we will have a report on what the judge did with our notions. The following question was asked by one of the attending menders: Is there no limit the judge can set on the tine allowed for a plaintiff to seekdiscovery -- or does the tine just go on and on? The judge can set a tine limit. It is unlikely in a case of this magnitude that you will start to see the court pressing the attorneys for the different parties as to when they will be finished their discovery for a couple of years. 3r.ee the preliminary notions are set and decided, it would seen logical for the judge in this kind of case where there are so many plaintiffs and several de fendants that he would try to set some sort of orderly framework for the case to proceed. He will probably gather the attorneys together in an endeavor to determine hou long they will need for discovery. The plaintiffs' lawyers will probably say -a year and the defense lawyers will probably say they need years -mod years because of the many different plaintiffs. Probably the judge will at that time set some preliminary guidelines. It is probable that it will be several years before this case is ready for trial. It would be unrealistic to expect the case will be ready for trial in less than three years. In short, :he case is going to be around for a long tine, and that is why we want the initial notion of nTI to be ruled upon before the case gets into the real ; or its. -end- Att.

Alcorn, Jr., Esq., ATI Legal Counsel. The members of rmittec desired a legal opinion of the decision of the three-judge panel, impcrnance of the two items remanded to OSHA for consideration, and of future moves or actions that might result from the decision. .A: planned, the Committee spent the balance of the session reviewing OSHA 1 GM-93--'-. Each item or paragraph was discussed in an endeavor to determine ' .1 : .'predations among the Committee Members and to consider what possible ante rare * -at tons might be presented by an Inspection Compliance Officer. To was reed that should an Inspection Compliance Officer arrive at a member- impany ;_:ut to inspect that plant, the following ''in-comnon1 requests would 1) aha: each sampling be an eight-horn* sampling segmented by at least lb filter changes of no more than 30 minutes per filter; . .ore Act.

In discussion each item and pa agraph, questions were raised as to the meaning of parts, etc. In each area o questioning, each "ember of the Committee was given opportunity to voice his individual views -- thereby enabling ?m. r.greeable summation to be formed. The California OSH*, law was briefly discussed. It was mutually agreed that this item should be investigated in greater detail as it will have some -effect on all member companies of the ATI. The EFA waste disposal regulation, as it is presently recommended, was dis cussed. If the Regulation becomes law, it will cause difficulty to all asbestos products manufacturers, especially in the area of scrap disposal. Respectfully submitted, L. E. Moody, Chairman \tt. IV/Page 2 of 2 > .r-.i. o sj r ^ 1 o I -11_ ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE February 7, 1975 Presented by Wendell 3. Alcorn, Jr., Esq., ATT Legal Counsel, at the 1975 Winter Meeting of the A.TI held at Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia, Pennsyl vania . It is indeed a pleasure to be here. As I have said in the past, I enjoy the fellowship almost as much as giving my renarks of legal counsel. We have had a lot of developments in the past few months since our last meeting which I do want to bring to your attention. With respect to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (03HA), there are several points I want to make relating to compliance. There recently were a series of citations issued to the Old Ben Coal Corporation. OSHA has made an example of this company. It has levied a $70,000 fine for 70 separate violations of the coal dust standard. This is the heaviest penalty that has been levied to date for any separate series of violations. The maximum serious violation penalty under OSHA is $1000 per violation. Approximately 30$ of the OSHA citations that have been issued to date are non-seriou3 violations. The administrative law judge who handed down the penalty against "Old Een" said the company had flaunted its obligation to observe safety standards. It was cited jO times in the last two years for violating the same standard that it continued to violate -- and it showed no intention of correcting the situation. It had received a number of lesser fines in the- years past. The moral of the story is pretty clear. If you get a minor or non-serious citation, at least show good faith with the OSHA people and make an effort to correct the situation. If the situation cannot be corrected completely, keep OSHA informed through periodic reporting; ask their advice and assistance; cooperate with them as much as you can consistent with your own individual interests; ancl, above all, bo diplomatic. THE OSHA GENERAL DUTY CLAUSE "e in :M'j asbestos industry have been concerned for quite a few years with the SHA .-.s best os Standard. 'We tend to forget, however, that there is a general clause in the OSHA Act that places on the employer a very broad duty, says want each employer "shall furnish to each of his employees employment .mi a ..i:.c^ jf employment which are free from recognized hazards that are caus- ' v ;r likely to cause death or serious physical harm to his employees.'' I have reviewed the cases that have been decided to date under the general duty clause and have come up with several general rules I would like to discuss briefly with you. These rules are derived from the cases that have been handed more......... Att. VI/Page 1 of 6 - Femsrxs gal I our.se 1 - 2/7/75 down under this clause. I think, however, that the principles that have evolved can he applied to any type of OSHA cor.pliar.ee situation. Do. 1, if there is a specific standard in effect it preempts the general duty clause; so if you have an asbestos dust problem, the general duty clause is not the method by which C3HA would proceed. It would proceed under the Asbestos Standard. The second thing is that the clause covers contractors and subcontractors. If you have someone who is contracting for you, his employees are covered under the general duty clause. If you are in a joint venture with another company, be careful because you ;say well be held liable tor something the other fins is doing without your knowledge. Separate 'workplaces lead to separate violations. If you have a spinning room, and another room at your plant, and you are doing the same thing in both rooms, it aught lead to two citations for violations under the general duty clause. You are responsible for the safety of non-owned equipment. If you have leased or rented equipment, you must make certain it is safe. The mere occurrence of an accident does not prove a violation. Suppose a worker gets hurt at a plant and CSHA comes in and gives you a citation. If the facts indicate that you did everything within reason to prevent that accident end you had no cause to know the accident would occur before it did, then you can probably defeat the citation if it were given under the general duty clause. The standard of your conduct is "reasonableness." 'That would a reasonable man do in your situation. foolhardy acts of employees do -not lead to a violation. There was one case that was decided where an employee walked under a crane and pulled out the pins that held up the crane. The crane crashed down and killed him. The employer was cited under the general duty clause as not having provided a safe workplace -- and the U.3. Department of Labor lost the case. There may be a violation if the thing that you are doing is recognized as a hazard in your industry. A company can take certain actions and perhaps not recognize that a condition at its plant is hazardous, but if it is recognized in the industry by your fellow companies as generally being hazardous then this is swathing that does come under the general duty clause. ;i wm.'se, some hazards are necessarily attendant to any work. For example, here was a case that was brought where some garbage men were picking up the -;rb:.ge cams and the hydraulic tailgate fell on one of the workers, injuring him. ;H . she company that owned the garbage truck for violation of the general .ty clause. It was ruled to not be a violation because it was something that wac- necessary to the collection of garbage. People have to work under hydraulic tailgates. re Att. VI/Page 2 of 6 . J ! ] | ij i i : J jj 1 ; j ; k. ; : . ' ' : .Ul - ;.0.~.ar.<S LkS '2.X COuPiSsl 2/7/75 rl' O Most conpanios have their own internal safety rules. The simple promulgation or announcement of a safety rule to your employees does r.ot seean that the thing you arc endeavoring to prevent by establishing that rule is recognized by you vo be a hazard. However, it is of some evidentiary importance. For example, if you issue a rule in your company that there is not to be smoking within 50 foot of a certain area, then if you are brought in 'under the general duty clause 05HA (or the Department of Labor) can cite your company's rule as having some evidentiary weight on 'whether that area was considered to be hazardous, in your thinking. The hazard that is cover..d under the general dv.'v clause must is une that will probably occur unless corrective action or pro^`-' warnings are u.Jortakcn. A mere possibility does not suffice. There was a .--aso decided whore an 03HA inspector saw that some foundation work had beer, removed from cricks that overed an archway. The bricks we re not loose and the mortar was sound; but he OSHA inspector said there was a possibility that the bricks would fall and hurt somebody. So he issued a citation -- but the.conpany won. There was no probability of a hazard. Many of us deal with equipment that has rated capacity. T.fe ride on elevators in hotels that are capable of handling a certain number of pounds or tons. This is of some evidentiary value. For example, if you are operating a crane that has a certain capacity limitation or specification and a cable breaks or sonething happens './here the crane swings around, hits somebody and injures hie: -- then you could well be held in violation of the general duty clause; and the specification on the crane could be introduced as evidence. But it is a fact question as to whether heed was paid to the specification on the crane; if a maximum load was intended; or if it was being used just for your own convenience in operating your business. There are some conclusions to be drawn from these cases. You do have a duty to vrarn of unusual or dangerous conditions at your plant. You must warn your employees of these. You have a duty to supervise inexperienced workers or workers whose duties are necessarily involved with hazardous activities. You have a duty to not be negligent. You must act as a reasonable person in the conduct of your business. "here is a factual presumption before administrative law judges in favor of the injured worker, unless he acted in a gross or wanton manner in disregard of his :wr. safety. There are many cases on the books where the supervisor advised a v.-vrkc-r of a hazard and the worker did not pay heed. This is a defense to a sitaelon given -under the general duty clause. .. ease A vs been decided that was brought against American Smelting and Refining " -.".par.:/ whiek is of particular interest. In essence, the case stands for the :reposition a hat an employer must use sophisticated testing devices and methods tc detect unseen hazards in the workplace. For example, in this particular instance the company undertook sores casual monitoring to measure airborne load from a smelter. 3ir the same token, the employer had a duty to make his employees wear respirators within a certain area. The employer 'undertook to score Att. VI/Faee 3 of 6 ATI - Remarks of Legal Counsel - 2/7/75 monitor the air and if the air was a-i-lright, it would not m.aks the employees wear the respirators.

All U.S. nenber companies of the ATI fall in this category and, therefore, OSHA does have jurisdiction. Second, he has to show that a hazard existed -- a hazardous condition was, in fact, there. This can be a hazard recognized in your industry or one of which the employer has actual knowledge. Thirdly, the Secretary of Labor or his representative must show that the condition was likely to cause death or serious bodily harm to your employee. Fourth, the burden is on the respondent in a case like this to show there was a specific standard that governed the case and that the general duty clause should not be invoked. THE TELEX-IBM CASE In November 1973 an Oklahoma federal district court judge had the bright idea to issue against IBM a damage assessment which was the largest in the entire history of .merican jurisprudence. It was in a private, treble damage antitrust action under the Sherman ,,ct. ' Telex .;?.s a competitor of IBM and accused IBM of attempting to monopolize and actually monopolizing the market for electronic data-processing products. The amount of the damage award against IBM was $259.5-million. In the course of the litigation, IBM had counterclaimed against Telex and said they were pirates: "They stole some of our business secrets and used them for their own advantage.11 The juige found against Telex on the counterclaim and awarded a substantial dcn.age claim against Telex. . ease was appealed to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals and just recently, January 24, 1975, the Circuit Court overturned the lower court's holding against 15:1 and affirmed its holding against Telex. r -.ore Att. Vi/Page L of & The Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the lower court's docisicn on two technical antitrust grounds. One was that the lower court had too r.a.rrowly defined the product market under the .ohonaan let. Under the Sherman let a relevant product market must be defined in order to judge the ccrapeti.tive effects that ahe conduct being challenged has had, to judge and identify the competitors i. th _. -U.'-- '-W the market it ors. The lower court had d.flr-i the relevant produce o c-'no clouting ieocror.ic data- processing products which were : plug comp- waol IBM c^rdrai-processing units. Is of now the Circuit Court has issued a brief written opinion on this, although a fully-detailed writing is expected shortly. But fro:1, the arguments made by IE-1's counsel before the court, we oust assume that the higher court wanted the product market drawn either along the lines of all electronic dataprocessing equipment ur something between that which is "plug compatible" with IBM and the entire electronic data-processing field. ..Iso the upper court said something that is most important, in :..y view, if it prevails, and that is that the practices of IBM that wore challenged by Telex constituted valid, competitive practices and were neither predatory nor other wise violative of the antitrust acts. IBM now sits in the position of having no damage assessment against it. Telex, which is a much smaller company, has a total damage assessment against it of $13.5-million. The conclusion is pretty obvious. Telex will appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court and try to get that body to hear the case. In view of the large damage award that is still prevailing against Telex and the loss of its damage award against IBM, it is likely that the U.S*. Supreme Court will take the case. There also is a chance the case will be settled before the final outcome is rendered by the Sucreme Court. CRIMINAL SANCTIONS. PRICE FIXING & VORAHTIES The criminal sanctions under the Sherman Act have been increased. They had been ?5C,CCC -- now we are talking about $l-nillion for corporations and several hundred thousand dollars in the case of individuals. The U.S. T.opartment of Justice has undertaken a much stronger and more vigorous regional trice fixing attack. It has put 40 additional staff attorneys on the antit .amt division price fixing task force. They are going out in the field ana arc- lacking at economic data rather than listening on the telephone and packing up correspondence relating to price fixing. They are looking at economic data in industries as an early warning device against price fixing -- to see if the prices charged by different companies have-moved together, etc. more ,-tt. VT/rago 5 of 6 ATI - Remarks of L-^sal Counsel - 2/7/75 They have been authorized to use the F3I to a much greater extent than in the past. In a word, the antitrust division is moving very vigorously against regional and local price fixing arrangements. Another matter I would like to call to your attention, particularly for the benefit of your house counsel, is: If you sell consumer products_that have any kind of warranties, written warranties or implied warranties, I would be happy to send your house counsel a copy of a recent 3ill that was enacted and passed December 19, 1974. It is Senate Bill 356 and is called "The Magneson-Hoss Warranty and Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act." If your house counsel receives the CCH Trade Regulation Reports, it is a special print-out numbered 156156 that came out in December. The Federal Government, in a word, has laid down specific requirements that any written warranty on consumer product has to meet. If they do not moot them, they will be in violation of Federal law. Sven if you do not have a written warranty, look at the Bill because it also has serious implications for Implied warranties. It does not preempt in its entirety the warranty provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, but it does have an effect on all warranties of that nature. -er.d- Att, VI/Page 6 of 6 Minutes GENERAL MEETING Asbestos Textile Institute FEB 7 - 1375 ASBESTOS TEXTILE INSTITUTE 1975 WINTER MEETING February 7, 1975 Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania LIST OF nKTJGATES AMATEX CORPORATION W.

This left a cash balance on hand at December 31, 1974, of "24,341.84 ($10,164.78 for general purposes, plus $14,177.06 for the Litigation Defense Fund). Adding assets of cash on hand together with accounts receivable and the nominal $1.00 value for furniture and equipment, the total net worth of the Institute at year-end 1974 was $30,001.74.

(The complete Report of Funds is appended to these Minutes as Attachment I and will he filed for audit.)6 6. The Fiber Producers' Report was presented by E. A. Farrell, Sales Manager, Lake ..sbestos of Quebec, Ltd. In discussing the period January-October 1974, Mr. Farrell gave a breakdown of the 28,611 metric tons of spinning-grade fiber export ed from Canada --- by quantities and by countries of destination. He also more Page 3 ATI 1975 '/inter Meeting 2/7/75 referred to the many difficulties currently besetting the Canadian Asbestos Industry such as the fire that occurred in December at the King-Beaver Mill of Asbestos Corporation Ltd.; the landslide at the Jeffrey Mine Pit of Canadian. Johns-Kanville Co. Ltd.; the pit problems of Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd.; and a possible labor strike at the Quebec mines. As a result of these many problems, Mr. Farrell reported that Group 3 fibers are in short supply. Also, Group 7 is available but Groups 4, 5 and 6 continue in short supply. (See Attachment II for a copy of the entire Fiber Producers' Report.) 7. In the absence of C. S. Barnwell, Chairman of the Technical Committee, the report on the activities of that working group was given by Committee Member John TJ. Hawkins. Mr. Hawkins advised of the completion of the Round Robin tests on tubular sleeving, tape, cloth and lap and that reviews of and modifications to the following ASTM Specifications were made: D-315 on Uoven Asbestos Tape, D1061 on Asbestos Lap and DI571 on '/oven Asbestos Cloth. (See attachment III for the complete Technical Committee Report.) " 3, A report on the Environmental Committee's activities was presented by Chair man L. E. Moody. Mr. Moody advised he was reporting on the first meeting of the Committee, newly-formed by combining the former /dr Hygiene and Manufacturing Committee and the Environmental Health Committee. He advised that AT. B. Alcorn, T ., Esq., ATI Legal Counsel, reviewed for the Committee the decision handed down in the IUD/CIO case. The group then proceeded to review OSHA Standard 1910-93a. (See Attachment IV for the entire Environmental Committee report.) 9- President Xuzauk addressed the membership-at-large stating he had a pleasant duty to perform -- and it was indeed a privilege to present an engraved, walnut plaque to a well-respected friend of long-standing of the ATI: Paul 0. Hicodemus. Mr. Hicodemus has impressive technical qualifications -- a B.S. in Chemistry from Penn State University and an M.S. from the University of Pennsylvania. He his had 33 years of service with General Electric Company during which time he has been most helpful to the Asbestos Textile Industry. Perhaps his greatest contribution is his many years of dedicated work with ASTM in setting standards for practically all of the asbestos commodities -- and most recently in working with the ATI Technical Committee in keeping all pertinent standards up-to-date. Mr. Micodemus has not only made a technical contribution but he has also found time to work with various charities and social groups such as the Retarded Children's Instructional Bowling League; a Member of the Board of Camp Paul, , which provides summer vacations for retarded children; and a former Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus. In asking Mr. Nicodemus to come forward to receive his plaque, President Ku.zr.iuk stated it was with the greatest of pleasure, on behalf of the ATI, to present him with this token of the Industry's appreciation for his many contri butions over the years. Mr. llicodenus was completely overwhelmed by the unexpected event -- but was most pleased and sincerely thanked the Institute for the plaque. more rage A ATI 1975 Winter Meeting 2/7/75 10. The report of the Ad Hoc Committee was given by Chairman A. C. F. Finkbiner, III, Esq. Attorney Finkbiner discussed the current status of the Yandle and Kay cases insofar as ATI's involvement in the Tyler Litigation is concerned. Ho advised that a deposition of Dr. Lee Grant, Medical Adviser with Pittsburgh Corning Corporation, is scheduled for March 6-7, 1975) in Pittsburgh., Pennsyl vania, and that hopefully the ATI, by its next meeting, will know what decision has been handed down by the judge on its motion to dismiss on jurisdictional grounds. (See Attachment V for the full report.) 11. Remarks of Legal Counsel were presented by Attorney Alcorn. In essence he discussed several points relating to compliance with OSHA regulations. Addi tionally, he reviewed a recent development in the Telex-IBM litigation; the increase in the criminal sanctions under the Sherman Act; the stronger, more vigorous regional price-fixing attack by the U.S. Department of Justice; and, for the benefit of house counsel, he mentioned Senate Bill #356, enacted Decem ber 19, 1974, titled the Magneson-Moss Warranty and F-.jd jral "'rad ; Commission Improvement Act (of interest to those companies that sell consumer products that have any kind of warranties, written or implied.) (The full text of Legal Counsel's Remarks are appended to these Minutes as Attachment VI.) ]2. President Kuzrnuk reported that the ATI Board of Governors had unanimously agreed that future Annual Meetings would be held as per usual and that the Executive Secretary was looking into suitable sites for the Institute's 1975 and 1976 Annual Meetings. When firmed, the membership will be so advised. 13 It was reported by President Kuzrnuk that Nicolet Industries, Inc., has gone out of the asbestos yarn business and, therefore, no longer qualifies for member ship in the Institute. As a result, Nicolet has tendered its resignation from the ATI as of December 31, 1974i but President G. G. Gabrielson, Jr., has advised of Nicolet's intent to continue to support the Institute in its defense efforts in the Tyler Litigation -- including active participation in the affairs and activities of the Ad Hoc Committee. 14. President Kuznuk stated that a new Membership Directory would be issued within the next two months, as soon as all necessary information is received, c-mpiled and printed. 15. Following the announcement that the 1975 Spring Meeting of the ATI would be held June 5-6. 1975. at Stouffer's Atlanta Inn, Atlanta, Georgia, President Kuzrnuk entertained a notion for adjournment. It was so moved by L. E. Moody, seconded by P. E. Leclerc, and unanimously approved by the attending members -- and the meeting was adjourned at 3:00 p.n.

On September 1, 1975, the balance on hand was $3,599.21. Added to this figure were total receipts of $11,004,49, the most notable being $9,750,00 from Members' dues and $748.90 from sales of the Chrysotile Asbestos Test Manual, 3rd edition. Total carpenditures were $5,031.39, leaving a cash balance at the end of December of $13,531.71. Talcing into account Tcnov/n assets and liabilities, the total net worth of the Corporation at December 31,' 1975, amounted to $13,256.32. The entire Report of Funds, which will be filed for audit, is attached -to these Minutes as Attachment I. . _5. The Fiber Producers' Report was presented by P. E. Leclerc. To tal shipments for 1075 of asbestos by member companies of the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association show a decline of 42.57* from 1974. For Group 3 grades, the decline was 39'i, At year-end, inventories of Group 3 grades were 65% lower than a year ago. The 7-month-stribe at the Quebec asbestos nines is partially responsible for the de crease. The supply situation of the longer spinning grades is tight. Demand and supply of the regular spinning grades appear to be in balance. See Attachment II for the Fiber Producers' Report in its entirety. jS. Technical Committee Member J, W. Haw';ins reported that his group met February 5 and S to review several ASTT-i Standards and a Military Specification. . * Mr. Hawlcins announced that the Technical Conmittee, which had 3 members about 5 years ago, has been reduced to 3 members. Additional members are needed in order to have an active, on-going group, Tie Cccraittoe is suggesting that representatives be sent from Johns-Manville Corporation and Garloch Inc. Others that can give technical assistance are requested to volunteer. ... It was advised that the ATI Technical Committee and ASTM Sub-Commit tee D13.14 woro one in the same with the exception of P. 0. Nicodcmus who servos as Chairman of D13.14 and as liaison between ASTI1 and ATI. Ilr. ITicodenus is in ill health and is not in position to travel, but he has agreed to continue with these responsibilities for the time being. When the time comes that ho becomes unable to be active, the ATI Technical Committee has decided that the Chairman of both the ASTI I and the ATI Committees should be the same person -- rotating at two-year intervals. See Attachment III for the complete Technical Coixnittoe Report. more Page 1^1 ATI BC. 1573 Winter .Meeting 'J 2/6/76 7. In the absenca of Chairman R. A. ICuntze, a report on the activi ties of the Fiber Research & Tasting Suhcomittaa was given by D. 2. Childers. A comparison test is undorway on dust counting, using the membrane filter method. Test results thus far indicate the labora tories involved did not use the seme counting procedure. Therefore, a second Round-Robin test will be run and it will be emphasized that all those participating should use the CSK^. method of counting. See Attachment IV for the entire Fiber Research & Testing Subcommittee Report. Zm Chairman L. E. Itoody advised that the special Environmental Task Group met on February 4--5 to carry out the project assigned to it by the ATI Board of Governors -- which was to define each piece of asbestos tortile manufacturing equipment; to determine how an asbes tos fiber becomes airborne at each location; to describe the current means to capture and control airborne asbestos fiber; and to report on the effectiveness of the present controls. Chairman lioody will shortly issue a report to the Secretary on the findings of the Task Group. The Report, in turn, will bo submitted to the Board of Gov ernors. Ultimately, the information will become a part of the ATI Position Paper which will serve as the Institute's comments to the U. S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration on the proposal to revise the "Asbestos Standard." _9. As reported by Chairman iloody,- the Environmental Committee met on Februery S during which it received a presentation and demonstration by Mr. Robert S. Hagdelain on Uilfisk vacuum cleaning equipment. Secondly, a discussion was held on -the events of the meeting held on February 4 by the Asbestos Information Association/North America re the Industry Response it is preparing to the proposed revision of tho "Asbestos Standard." Lastly, the Cor.er.ittec reviewed several sections of the afore-mentioned Standard, specifically those relat ing to recordkeeping, facility requirements such as showers, regu lated areas, and mechanical ventilation systems. See Attachment V for tho entire Environmental Committee Report. 10. President ICuzmu!: advised that the Secretary would soon be sending response forms to all member companies, requesting than to indicate their acceptance or non-acceptance of the new membership structure which becomes effective September 1, 1976, and which wa3 fully de fined in the Minutes of tho 1975 Annual General Meeting of ATI, Inc., in paragraphs 11 and 12 on page 4. It vea reiterated that tho Institute is opening its membership to a greater number of companies so they may become Regular Harbors and serve on tho Board of Gover nors. Tho purpose of tho mailing piece is to enable the Board to determine who will become Regular Members at the start of the ne::t fiscal year.

' 11. It v-as regrettably announced by President It-.zmul: that as a result of a corporate decision. Uniroyal, Inc., had resigned as a Member of the ATI. He stated the Board had accepted the resignation with a groat deal of regret as the various representatives of Uniroyal had been a great asset to the Institute over the years, having performed effectively in its many activities, both administratively and at Cosmittcc level. 12.Because of Uniroyal's resignation from, the Institute, vacancies were created in the Office of Vice-President and in the Chairmanship of the Technical Conaitteo. President Itermuh announced that through the remainder of this fiscal year and until the 197S Annual Meeting, Treasurer Scanlan will tohe on the additional duties of Vice President of the Institute. W. Meashant will serve as Acting Chair man of the ATI Technical Committee. 13. President KuzmuT: informed the membership that the dates of the neest General Meeting of ATI, Inc., remained at June 3-d, 1576, although the site had been changed to Stouffor's National Center Inn, Arlington, Virginia. The move was made in the interest of economy when it was learned that Twin Bridges Harriett in Arlington (the previously-scheduled site) had established, new prices for meeting space that, seemed cmhorbitant and an unnecessary eirponse. Id.It was reported by President Muamuh that the ATI Position Paper had bean reviewed at this meeting. It is about ready for final draft form and should bo coi.rslotad and. approved by the Board for submission to OCHA by the deadline which presently is April 9, 1976. The ATI Position Paper will incorporate the outcome of discus sions at the special mooting held by the Institute on November 13, 1975; data received and compiled following that meeting; and the bindings cz the Environmental Tasb Group (referred to in paragraph 8 of these .Minutes). It will be concerned specifically with the posi tion of the asbestos temtile manufacturing industry in the U.S. In addition, ATI is coordinating with AIA/IT\ in its project tc\Jard pre paring and su3emitting a total Asbestos Industry Response to OCHA. 15.There being no further business to be brought before the member ship, it was moved by P.

Leclerc, Salas Director, Asbestos Corporation Ltd., at too 1976 Winter General Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute, Inc., Sheraton National Motor Hotel, Arlington, Virginia -- February 6, 1975 Total shipments of the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association member companies for 1975 show a decline of 42.5% from 1974. For group 3, the decline was 6974. The seven-months' strike in the Thetford- 31ach Lake-Last 3rouchton area is partially responsible for this drop. At the end of 1975 the combined inventory of the QAHA members was the lowest ever? the stocks on hand of group 3 grades were 6 574 lov/er than they were the previous year; total stocks wore 5974 lower as veil and I should add that 5074 of the inventor^ was made up of group 7 grades. The supply situation of the longer spinning grades such as 3F, Cassiar AAA and Cassiar A\ is rather tight. The demand and supply of the regular spinning grades appear to be in balance at this time. Grades in groups 4, 5 and 6 are very much in demand, and definitely in short supply. The demand for grades in group 7 continues to be good, particularly in the "open type" grades.

Pagan, ATI Executive Secretary MINUTES JL. TYLER LITIGATION: No remarkable change in the Tyler Litigation is anticipated during tho next 3-S months and very little has happened with the case. ATI's posture remains unchanged. Basically the situation can be summed up by saying that the court is remaining open for additional plaintiffs to join the lav/suit. Plaintiffs are still coming in and are being given a reasonable time for discovery. The court will not address the jurisdictional issues, including ATI's motion to dismiss, until all discovery is completed. As far as our request for a voluntary dismissal is concerned, plaintiffs' counsel will not decide until discovery is completed. 2,. S30UP LITIGATION: A complaint was filed in March in Detroit, Michigan, by William Carl Shoup against Johns-Manville Products Corporation, et al., including The Asbestos Textile Institute, a Pennsylvania corporation. more, u) Page 2 - tlinutes of ATI Ad Hoc Concaittae Heating - 6/3/76 a) Of special interest is that this is tha first tine ATI has been made a party in a litigation involving an insulation worker, as opposed to factory workers as is the case in the Tyler-Litigation. The Shoun action represents the first attempt to draw ATI, as a trade association, rather than a product nanufacturer into user-type litigation. Hr. Alcorn was quite correct in filing a notion to dismiss ~ and before the notion was heard he was able to successfully negotiate a voluntary dismissal. The volunatary dismissal is "without prejudice," which naans that at any tine until the Statute of Limitations runs out, ATI cun be rejoined as a party defendant. However, the livelihood of that happening is remote. The plaintiff has a number of goed, solid, viable defendants who did supply insulation products and there is no question Hr. Shoup was eirposod to those products. There is very little involvement that would warrant tr.e rejoinder cf ATI or of any of tho trade associations. b) Of interest are the allegations as to trade associations in a "user" case. The plaintiff acknowledges that: The organizations are trade associations: Each is engaged in research and development arid in the collection, promulgation and dissemination of informa tion to its members, to users of its products and to the publio-at-large and ultimata consumers; The defendants are involved in the trade associations that, collectively, had knowledge for many years as to the hazards of the inhalation cf asbestos dust and thare wa3 a suppression or misrepresentation of that knowledge. The above is alternatively pleaded that either the trade associa tions engaged in a suppression of tha knowledge of tho hazard or they misrepresented tho nature of the hazard. 33ae other allega tion is that they did suppress or misrepresent tha knowledge but they did so in the form of a civil conspiracy with the other defendants. Tha civil conspiracy aspect is not too alarming because it is a difficult thing to prove. However, a chargo of suppression or misrepresentation of knowledge is one of which trade associations must be cognizant and on guard. The reason ing behind this statement is that since the companies are the source of the information for tho trade associations, tho asso ciations become operational arms cf the companies. This might be construed that tha members cf the associations are liable in that they were negligent in not doing enough investigation and in not pursuing tho leads indicated by medical literature. mors .0 J Pago 3 - Minutes of ATI Ad Hoc Committee Mooting - 6/3/76 * '! As a practical natter, however, the likelihood of that happening in the Shcup case is somewhat remote. It is difficult for the plaintiff tc prove and there is little pragmatic reason for him to attempt tc do co. Ee already has plenty of defendants; why uorry about the trade associations. c) It is becoming increasingly clear how peoplo aro thinking in "user-type" cases and that is a collective organization of defendants suppressing or misrepresenting information and the duly-elected representatives in tho trade associations being negligent in their duties of pursuing tho information and of investigating it -- and that leads to such questions as* After a certain ccsenittee is formed and active, what did it do with the information it gathered? TIhy did it take or not take a par ticular course of action? It seems evident there will bo mere attempts to join trado associations with "user-type" litigations. 3. A PkObUCT E3osurj3 LHTSATICHi A case that went to trial in Louisville, Kentucky, is of interest in that it is the type of litigation that could more diroctly involve, if not a trade association such as ATI, at least its member companies. It is quite unlike the usual insulation case because it involves the use of a finished product that someone other than 'the original manufacturer (in thi3 case, Jchns-IIanville) had further fabricat ed or processed. The plaintiff had worked in a factory for some years, was eirposod to the product, contracted mesothelioma and, subsequently, died. '. a) The case was tried by a jury. Counsel for the defendants proceeded with a state-of-the-art defense to indicate what knowledge was hold by the companies at what point in time. Tho defendant lost the case but the verdict vas very "small" -- 510,000 for a 51-yoar-old man for lest wages during time of illness and for pain and suffering and medical o::pan3es; and $80,000 to the widow for what should have been tho remainder of the plaintiff's lifetime. ttor^caon's Compensation totaled about $22,000. The outcome roflocts a minimal liability on the part of tho primary manufacturer. b) In analyzing the ca9o, two points boceno clear. It is osrtrenoly difficult to sell jurors on a state-of-the-art defense since they are net familier with the situation nor with the literature. Tho problem is translating to the year 197 S that working with asbestos was a hazard in factories in the United Kingdom in the 1920's. All the literature tends to bo effec tively lumped together by the plaintiffs and there is little more O3 Page 4 - Minutes of ATI Ad Boc Canroittee Meeting - 6/3/76 segregation of points in tins when the data become meaningful in the insulation trade -- when there began to be an awareness of bronchogenic cancer or mesothelioma. c) A surprising fact vas the sophisticated reasoning of the jury. They seemed to ash was it really reasonable to expect companies in the past to be concerned with tlv* health ho>.:rd -- nobody n's<-. w.M d) in:arc sting reaction on thp po.:': a-: j1'- ots vns t.vjs. .

Thoy felt there was someth 1-v inherently uofair about an employee spending his entire wcrJ'f.uj life in a factory/ -4---------- becoming ill and dying as a result of conditions at the factory ~:U-cs -- and then a third party who did nothing cut supply raw --"""t materials was charged with the whole burden, especially when the casa boiled down to whether or not the manufacturer knew of a hazard and labeled his products accordingly. The jury was fairly well convinced that proper labeling would have had little consequence. ' e) Factually the case shaped up rather wall. Unfortunately, the jury had difficulty working with the instructions given it by the court. The instructions did not deal with labeling but with whether cr not there was Imowledge and if so there was an accompanying duty -- and thore was failure to satisfy the duty. f) The decision is being appealed on the grounds that the manufacturer defendant \ras successful in getting the court to submit an interrogatory to the jury which asked* Do you find from the evidence that the defendant gave adequate warning to the defendant's employer? The jury's answer was "yes." To clarify, there is a series of cases under Kentucky law, primarily in the mining industry involving dynamite, that says* Warning to the employer is warning to the employoe. This is not the rule in all jurisdictions but there is a growing body of lav; leaning this way. If this is so in the Kentucky courts, it will sot up, based on the evidence that there v/as an intervening cause by another party, to wit, the employer. This would absolve the manufacturer from liability. g) Tho results of tho casa have a bright side. Tha asbastos industry ha3 a story to toll. It is a story that, when told. more Tage 5 O' 3 Minutes c ATI Ad 3oc Ccmittoo Meeting - S/3/76 doesn't coco out sounding half bad. It is doubtful that anyone, absent a runaway jury, will be able to shew willful or wanton misconduct cn the part of the asbestos industry. When the information was put together and presentod to the jury, no one on the jury said the asbestos industry had gone out of i*c way to hurt people. On the contrary, they felt there had bT r\ a reapersibl: u'i-ort by the industry. Unfertile.*.inly.- rush uhav -*:* ovV-k* was based en wrong informal*.wn.

The injuries thus far appear to be minimal and the case seems to be diminishing in proportion. 5. Cei3>AI7y DOCTORS: In the news recently have been reports of several cases in California involving company doctors. They involve Johns-IJanvillo plant contract physicians, i.e., private practitioners in the local community who havo contracts with the company to provide limited time for pre--employment physicals, annual check-ups and minor nodical problems. The situation arose from a case about two years ago wh-re an employee sued the company doctor on a straight malpractice complaint for failure on the part of the doctor tc disclose to the pationt the nature of his pulmonary illness. The jury imposod about $385,000 on the doctor and the case was closed. Subsequently, six ether employees have filed similar cases against tho doctor who, in turn, hac impleaded Jchns-Ibnville on tho grounds it was not his responsibility tc disclose the information to the employee. a) Thera is another group of cases in California involving large punitive damage clair.3, where the employees have brought actions directly against Johno-Ibnville and the doctor -- J-M on the theory c cross, willful and wanton negligence; the doctor on tho theory of malpractice. Iho effort is to try to got the cases cut of the purview of war'r.'.en's cccaponsation; the general rule being that wor!rr.en*a compensation is a complete bar cn negligence but is not a complete bar if it i3 a willful action on the part sf the employer. more OJ Togo S - Minutes cf ATI Ad Hoc Coomitteo Mooting - S/3/76 b) There has boon a groat deal of union involvement in tho caaoo and mere of thoso types of occupational disease lawsuits are anticipated -- at lea6t 20 or 30 in California alone* It would behoove employers to review.' with house counsel and the doctor exactly what are the ground rules in getting nodical data from the doctor's office either to the employee or '*o hie fox-ly ohy? iciur_ IJhat makes the situation a*-cward is tl.o- peculiar1tie; nf a doctor-patient relationship.

It is a matter that cannot be resolved in the courts but must be settled in Congress. ->, ADJCUAITL3NTt There being no further items to bo discussed by the ATI Ad Hoc Committee, tho'meeting was adjourned at 3*13 p.n.

CALL TO ORDER: Tha 1975 Annual General Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute was called to order by President Kuznuk at 9:00 a.n., October 8, 1975, at the Savannah Inn and Country Club, Savannah, Georgia. 2. READING OP MINUTES: Upon the calling for a reading of the Minutes of the last stated meeting, it v/as moved by Mr. Scanlan, seconded by Mr. 3ratt, and unanimously approved, to dispense with the reading thereof. 2. FINANCIAL REPORT: Treasurer Scanlan presented the Financial Report of the Litigation Defense Fund as of August 31, 1976. After receipts, expenditures end liabilities, the actual net worth of the Fund at the end. of the Fiscal Year was $3,73 5.GO. The financial records were audited by Dreslin and Company, Certified Public Accountants, and were found to be in order. Tha Treasurer's Report is appended hereto as Attachment I. 4. SPECLAL ASSESSMENT #3: President Kuznuk advised the members that the Ad Hoc Committee had recommended to the Board of Governors that a third Special Assessment was in order for the Litigation Defanse Fund to cover anticipated near-future costs of the Tyler Litigation. After due consideration, however, the Board decided there should be sufficient money in tha Fund for the time being and that the matter would be reviewed again at the next meeting in February 1977. 5. COMPANY LIABILITY: President Kuznuk reported that Cadwaladar, `Jickershan S Taft will prepare a memorandum dealing with the extent of liability of member companies in the Tyler Litigation or in any future lawsuits in which ATI is named as a defendant. S. TYLER LITIGATION: Attorney Officer reported that nothing much has happened in the Tyler Litigation insofar as ATI is concerned. The judge still has not ruled on ATI's motion for dismissal issued about two years ago and Cadwaladar, vJickershom & Taft is about to make another attempt to have the Institute dismissed from the law suits. 7. MULTIDISTRICT LITIGATION: Upon noting a large number of pending lawsuits involving claims of personal injuries resulting from exposure to asbestos, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued a show-cause order listing 40-50 case3 (including tha Tyler Litigation) and calling for a response by September 1, 1975, as to why the cases should not be consolidated for pretrial proceedings. The responses v/ere overwhelmingly opposed to consolidation of the cases. The Panel decided to take no action at the tine and the more Page 3 - ATI 1275 Annual Mooting - 10/3/75 scheduled hearing vas suspended until further notice. It is quite possible, hovever, that a similar attempt tov/ard consolidation '.'ill be made again in the near future. 8.

A. Farrell, Sales Manager, Lake Asbestos of Quebec, Ltd., at the Winter Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute, held at Holiday Inn-Independence Mall, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- February 7, 1975. The Canadian Asbestos Industry has suddenly become burdened with great diffi culties . The first disaster was the fire in December that destroyed the Asbestos Corpora tion King Beaver Mill. This will result in a loss of 150,000 short tons of fiber in 1975, including a large tonnage of spinning fiber. This was followed in January by a serious slide at the Johns-Manville Jeffrey pit at Asbestos, Quebec. It appears that it will have some effect on the supply of their fiber since it will take six months to a year to clear up the matter. I understand that two large shovels were covered in the slide. Also, Cassiar Asbestos Corporation is having pit problems. We then have over-hanging these industry problems a possible labor strike at all of the Quebec mines. Negotiations are currently in a critical stage and the industry requests your cooperation and understanding during this difficult period. As a result of the afore-mentioned problems, Group 3 fiber is in short supply and Groups 4, 5 and 6 continue in short supply. Group 7 is available. Canadian spinning fiber exports from January through October 1974 were as follows: Country of Destination Metric Tons Country of Destination Metric Tons United Kingdom Austria Belgium-Luxembourg France Germany, West Italy Netherlands Portugal Spain Sweden Czechoslovakia Hungary Yugoslavia 4,356 11 202 861 1,879 836 626 60 989 21 74 120 510 Israel 129 Turkey 220 India 213 Pakistan 330 Japan 3,877 Korea, South 138 Australia 75 Argentina 256 Brazil 283 Colombia 50 Mexico 2,363 United States 10,132 TOTAL 28,651 Metric Tons Att.

Mr. Nicodemus, Chairman of ASTM Subcommittee D13.14, was asked to chair the committee during this meeting due to the fact that ASTM Specifications would be under considera tion. Round Robin tests have been completed on tubular sleeving, tape, cloth and lap. It was acknowledged that assistance was necessary from ASTM to compile statis tical data from the results of the tests. Although the sleeving data diameter measurements were very variable, it was decided that they should remain because in test the variations do exist. Based upon discrepancies and lack of clarity evident from the Round Robin tests, test procedures involved were reviewed. In Specification D-315 on Asbestos Tape the method of breaking was modified to insure the correct jaws are being used. The format for conformance, reports and precision also were modified. In Specification 1571 on Asbestos Cloth the weight section was rewritten so that the result of the weighing would be reported in the same unit measurement as that used in industry standards. It was agreed that Specification 1061 on Asbestos Lap should include precision and accuracy based on the original Round Robin test, even though wide variations were obtained. No work was done at the meeting on Military or Federal specifications. Respectfully submitted, John W. Hawkins, Acting Chairman Att III Minutes GENERAL MEETING Asbestos Textile Institute JUN 6 1975 MEMO e' --I THE desk of Doris M.

' MINUTES ENVIRONMENTAL COMMITTEE Asbestos Textile Institute Stouffers Atlanta Inn, Atlanta, Georgia June 6, 1975 The regular spring meeting of the ATI Environmental Committee was called to order by Acting Chairman R. T. Matthew, with representa tion from ten (10) member companies present. Those in attendance included: Amatex Corporation -- H. H. Walter Asberit S/A -- M. Cattaneo Asbestos Textil S.A. -- F. Ize Atlas Textile Company -- VJ. H. Johnston Lake Asbestos of Quebec Ltd. -- E. A. Farrell Nippon Asbestos Co.-Ltd. -- Y. Sato Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc. -- J; F. Maclachlan, R. T. Matthew, R. 0. ?Ioebius, M. W. Oliver, M. Q. Scowcroft Southern Asbestos Company -- E. C. Bratt TEA Industrial Products Ltd. -- H. J. Corson Uniroyal, Inc. -- B. E. Carden Mr. Matthew explained that for this meeting he was acting as chair man for L. E. Moody who is recovering from a recent heart attack. The film, "Living With Dust" -- produced by 3M Company -- was shown and several members of other ATI committees sat in with the Environ mental group for the showing of the film. The Committee then discussed respirators for asbestos dust -- who was using what type and where and why. Some companies are using approved "single-use" respirators for up to one week while others are using "reusable" permanent-type respirators with the cleaning and sanitizing program required by the OSHA Asbestos Standard. Nocne indicated that they had had experience with approved "poweredair-purifving respirators' required for the higher dust concentra tions. The proposed new noise standard was discussed briefly because there appeared to be no new factual information as to when the "final"' revision of the proposed standard will be published or what it will contain. The proposed new asbestos standard was discussed but again no factual information was available. However, two opinions obtained from a V/ashington source were: (1) that the proposed standard would not be published in the Federal Register until late summer; and (2) that the format will be like the recent arsenic and ketone standards with an "action level" (where certain requirements become mandatory) at about one half the allowable time-weighted average. Attachment IV/page 1 of 2 Minutes/ATI Environmental Committee 6''6 '75 Members were asked about recent OSHA activity-plant visits, etc. The only activities reported were a visit to one plant and a tele phone call to another -- both to obtain information about their work practices and dust control procedures for receiving, storing and handling asbestos before processing. After discussion, the Committee approved the following resolutions to the ATI Board of Governors: (la) That the ATI advise OSHA through appropriate channels that, in the opinion of the membership of the Institute, an accurate S-hour, time-weighted average of fiber concentra tion can be obtained only by the method detailed in (1) and (2) of the Minutes of this Committee's February 7, 1975, meeting. (lb) That OSHA Compliance Officers be instructed to follow this procedure when sampling for a time-weighted average. (lc) That a better definition, including a uniform practical sampling time, be obtained from OSHA for ceiling concentra tion. (2) That the ATI, through its Technical Committee or the Fiber Research Sc Testing Subcommittee, make every effort to find a better method than the "membrane filter" method for mea suring airborne concentrations of asbestos fiber. The Committee discussed briefly the "special clothing," "change rooms" and "clothes lockers" section of 1910.93a (now 1910.1001). This discussion will be continued at the next meeting of the Commit tee. Members desiring discussion, interpretation or clarification of other sections of the Asbestos Standard should notify the Chairman, preferably in writing, well before the next meeting.

Markusson, Esq., Johns-Manvilie Corporation; at the ATI 1975 Spring Meeting held at Stouffer's Atlanta Inn, Atlanta, Georgia. As reported at earlier meetings, the Asbestos Textile Institute has filed motions in the United States District Court in Tyler, Texas, in the Yandle and Kay cases seeking to be dismissed from such law suits on the grounds that the court does not have any jurisdiction over ATI. The court has still not ruled on such motions. The court has established a schedule for discovery whereby the par ties by means of interrogatories and depositions can seek facts and documents relevant to the law suit. At the present time some of this discovery is being directed to jurisdictional questions as there are other defendants who, as ATI, feel they are not proper parties to the law suit. There is no particular timetable on this discovery and it is our present judgment that the court will not rule on any jurisdictional questions, including ATI's motion to dismiss, until all jurisdictional discovery is completed. We remain confident that our contention that there is no jurisdic tion over ATI in these cases is well taken and will be favorably acted upon by the court when it is finally considered. From a procedural standpoint there is nothing more to be done on our motion to dismiss except wait for the court's ruling. Separate and apart from the formal motion to be dismissed as a party to the law suit the Institute through its Trial Counsel, Wendell B. Alcorn, Jr., has undertaken negotiations with plain tiff's counsel to be voluntarily dismissed as a party defendant in the pending law suits. Through Mr. Alcorn's efforts, there appears a strong likelihood that plaintiffs will consent to dismiss ATI as a party defendant. If this happens our formal motion to be dis missed becomes moot. In the area of discovery on matters other than jurisdictional questions, depositions have been taken of Dr. Lee Grant, defendant Pittsburgh Corning Corporation's Medical Director, and Dr. William Johnson, formerly with the United States Public Health Service, who inspected the Tyler plant. These depositions are helpful to ATI as they indicate Pittsburgh Corning had full knowledge of the condi tions prevailing at the Tyler plant and was fully aware of the state of the medical art relative to exposure to asbestos fibers. There fore, anything ATI did or failed to do would become immaterial and not causally connected to any of the alleged injuries suffered by more Attachment V^page 1 of 2 ATI Ad Hoc Committee Report 6 '6 '15 the plaintiffs. In other words, these depositions-help establishthat if there be any negligence on the part of ATI, which we deny, that there was intervening negligence by other defendants which exonerates ATI. At this point in time ATI has effectively established its juris dictional arguments and developed evidence favorable to it on the merits by means of the Grant and Johnson depositions. Accordingly, there is little need for any formal activity in these cases by ATI at the present time. We will continue to maintain a low profile and monitor all activities. Mr. Alcorn will continue his negotia tions with plaintiff's counsel and his efforts to have ATI voluntarily dismissed as a party defendant. Your Ad Hoc Committee will continue to supervise and monitor this litigation and report to you any significant developments. At the present time I feel it is fair to report that everything is as well under control as can be expected, and Mr. Alcorn is to be commended on his efforts on the Institute's behalf. - end - Attachment V/page 2 of 2 Page 2 ATI 1975 Spring Meeting 6'6 '75 Prior to the meeting the members were given the opportunity to view the 30-minute Eritish television film wKiller Dust--A Standard Mis take ?" It discusses asbestos dust concentrations at the asbestos textile plant at Rochdale, England, operated by TBA Industrial Prod ucts Ltd., a member of Turner & Newall Ltd., and challenges the validity of the ,!2-fiber" asbestos standard which is associated with the British Asbestos Regulations of 1969. Subsequent to the showing of the film, distribution was made among the membership of "AIC Newsletter No. 5,,! a publication of the U.K. Asbestos Information Committee, which comments on the film. Further comments as stated by TBA Joint Managing Director R. A. Wells, were reviewed by A. Xuzmuk, President of the ATI. 1. The 1975 Spring Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute was called to order by President A. Kuzmuk at 1:00 p.m., June 6, 1975. 2. President Kuzmuk welcomed all delegates and guests and made spe cial note of the following esteemed attendees: a) D. T. (Tex) Austin, Uniroyal, Inc., Retired; b) A. C. (Mike) Link, Uniroyal, Inc., Retired; c) Marcello Cattaneo, Asberit S/A, Rio de Janeiro, Erazil; d) Denis Barois, Asbestos Textil S.A., Naucalpan, Mexico; e) Francisco Ize, Astestos Textil S.A., Naucalpan, Mexico. 3.. President Kuzmuk announced, with deep sadness, the passing on May 2*6, 1975, of Dr. Tsunemasa Watanabe, President of Nippon Asbestos Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan. The genuine condolences of the entire mem bership are extended to Dr. Watanabe*s many friends and associates. 4. Upon the calling for a reading of the Minutes of the 1975 Winter Meeting, it was moved by E. A. Morris, seconded by E. A. Farrell, and so carried, to dispense with the reading thereof. 5.. The Financial Report of the Institute as of April 30, 1975, was presented by M. J. Scanlan, Treasurer. As of September 1, 1974, the balance on hand was $14,051.44. Added to that figure are receipts of $50,365.52 ($20,737.63 for Test Manual sales and $16,373.13 for the Litigation Defense Fund). Disbursements totaled $33,623.35, leaving a cash balance on hand at April 30, 1975, of $26,293.61. It was moved by P. E. Leclerc, seconded by E. C. Bratt, and unanimously approved, that the Financial Report be accepted as pre sented. The complete Report of Funds as of April 30, 1975, is appended to these Minutes as Attachment I and will be filed for audit. more Page 3 ATI 1975 Spring Meeting 6/6 ,'7 5 6. The Fiber Producers' Report was presented by P. E. Leclerc, Sales Director, Asbestos Corporation Ltd. For the four months from January through April 1975, overall tonnage was down 37.7$. Group 3 fiber production was down 44.4$. The decrease, of course, re flects the situation caused by the strike of Quebec asbestos mine workers, leaving Canadian Johns-Manville Co. Ltd. as the only com pany operating in the Province at the present time. See Attachment II for the Fiber Producers' Report in its entirety. 7. Technical Committee Chairman C. 3. Barnwell reported on the activities of his working group. He discussed various ASTM Stand ards and Military Specifications; a joint meeting with the Fiber Research & Testing Subcommittee; and a proposal by P. 0. Nicodemus concerning dielectric properties. See Attachment III for the com plete Technical Committee Report. 3. Fiber Research & Testing Subcommittee Chairman R. A. Kuntze rei terated that his group, in conjunction with the Technical Committee, will set up a Round-Robin program for surface area and Bauer McNett. Concerning a proposal by the ATI Board of Governors that a cataloging of information be prepared on the varieties of asbestos minerals, it was suggested by C. E. Stiefken that the information is probably available from the Asbestos Information Association /North America. If not, Mr. Stiefken has offered to search for the data sought by the Governors. 2- The Environmental Committee report was given by Acting Chairman R. T. Matthew in the absence, due to illness, of 1>\ E. Moody. Fol lowing a showing of the 3M film ;,Living With Dust,11 the Committee discussed the use of respirators in asbestos dust environs; the proposed new noise standard; the proposed new asbestos standard; and recent OSHA activity-plant visits. See Attachment IV for the com plete Environmental Committee report.- 10. Ad Hoc Committee Chairman D. H. Markusson, Esq., reported on *-TI's present status in the Tyler litigation and briefly discussed the depositions of Dr. Lee B. Grant and Dr. William M. Johnson. He advised that ATI will continue to maintain a low profile and to monitor all activities of the litigation. See Attachment V for the complete Ad Hoc Committee report. 11. President Kuzmuk advised that the Board of Governors is serious ly considering passing a resolution to broaden the membership by extending it beyond the boundaries of the United States to encompass the whole of the asbestos textile manufacturing world. 12. Concerning incorporation of the Institute, President Kuzmuk informed the members that it is anticipated the ATI will become a corporation effective September 1, 1975. mere Page 4 ATI 1975 Spring Meeting 6 '6 ''75 13. The attendees were reminded by the President of the coming Annual-Meeting to be held October 1-3, 1975, at Amelia Plantation Island, Amelia Island, Florida. It was advised that at that gath ering the Institute will again follow the pleasant tradition it had followed for a number of years and will hold a Grand Finale Luncheon on Friday as the closing event of the Annual Meeting -- all members and their wives cordially invited. 14. In presenting Remarks of Legal Counsel, W. B. Alcorn, Jr., Esq., reviewed the depositions of Dr's. Grant and Johnson, stating that the answers given in the interrogations indicate that whatever ATI did or did not do really had nothing to do with or had any cause and effect in Tyler, Texas. Based upon those two depositions, upon confidential negotiations on behalf of the ATI with plaintiffs' counsel, and upon the direction that plaintiffs' counsel has taken in the Tyler litigation insofar as not going after ATI but rather pursuing the real defendants in the case, Mr. Alcorn's professional opinion is that ATI has nothing more to worry about in the Tyler litigation even if it does not get out in the near future -- which he expects it to. He then discussed coming depositions in the Tyler litigation and other completely separate law suits. A landmark decision that is expected to come out of one of the pending cases in Texas is whether or not the Texas Longarm Statute can reach Canadian miners when they sell f.o.b. the shipping dock in Canada. This is an open legal question that is now being argued in Texas. In addition, Mr. Alcorn discussed the benefits which will be derived by the ATI becoming incorporated and the proposed expanding of the definition of membership in the Institute to include manufac turers outside the U.S. The full text of the Remarks of Legal Counsel are appended to these Minutes as Attachment VI. 15.. There being no further business-to be brought before the member ship, it was moved by P. E. Leclerc, seconded by M. TJ. Oliver, that the meeting be adjourned. The motion was carried unanimously and the meeting adjourned at 2:00 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Doris M.

Leclerc, Pales Director, Asbestos CorporationLtd., at the 1975 Spring Meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute, held at Stouffer's Atlanta Inn, Atlanta, Georgia -- June 6, 1975. Eecause of the asbestos workers' strike which has been in effect since 12:01 a.m., March 17, 1975, Canadian Johns-Manville Co. Ltd. is the sole asbestos mining company operating in the Eastern Townships of the Province of Quebec. This means that the only firms currently producing asbestos in the whole of Canada are C.J--IT at Asbestos, Quebec; Cassiar Asbestos Corporation Ltd. at Cassiar, British Columbia, and at Clinton Creek, Yukon Territory; and Advocate Mines Ltd., at Baie Verte, Newfoundland. Statistically, for the first, four months of 1975 overall tonnages (shipments) were down 37.7$. A categorical breakdown for the same period shows a decrease of 44.4$ for Group 3 and-increases of 11.3$ for Group 6 and 20$ for Group 7. Group 3 fibers, of course, do not include strictly asbestos textile fibers as much of the product from that Group is not suited to textiles but is exported around the world for use in the manufacture of asbestos-cement pipe. Asbestos Corporation's mine at Ungava, Quebec, is operating and is expected this year to ship enough concentrate to its processing plant at Nordenham, WestGermany, to produce over 100,000 metric tons of Group 4 asbestos, specially designed for the asbestos-cement industry. There appears to be no rush on the part of the idle workers to set tle the strike. They are back to their original wage demands which exceed those granted by C.J-M to its workers. There are two unions in Thetford and they have made what is known as a common front. 3igns of an early settlement are not evident and there is presently no way of knowing how long the strike will last. The outcome of meetings and discussions to date between the companies and the unions are not encouraging. The strike has not only stopped produc tion at the mines in Thetford, it also is preventing shipments of any kind as the warehouses are on the mine properties and the companies are not permitted into or out of the storage facilities.

Nicodemus (General Electric Company; ASTM Liaison), the Committee reviewed the article authored by Mr. Nicode mus titled "Present and Proposed Methods for Testing Asbestos Mater ials for Electrical Insulating Purposes (February & March 1975 ASBESTOS) -- with the idea of considering the adoption of the sec tion on dielectric properties as an ASTM Standard Method. After complete discussion the matter was deemed sufficiently complex to warrant a greater-detailed study before reaching a firm decision. The Committee received statistical data complete enough to make the following ASTM Specifications ready for acceptance: D-315 on Woven Asbestos Tape, D-1571 on Woven Asbestos Cloth and D-62S on Asbestos Tubular Sleeving. . . . Several questions of an editorial nature concerning ASTM Specification D-lllS on Magnetic Rating of Asbestos Fiber and Textile Products were discussed and acted upon. The group proposes to review several Military Specifications to en sure they reflect the Committee's current thinking on how they should be written. Included are Federal Specifications HH-T-17&2 on Asbestos Tape, SS-C-1733 on Asbestos Cloth and HH-T-41C on Asbes tos Rope, Packing Material and Military Specification MIL-I-3953 on Treated t Untreated Asbestos-Fiber Electrical Insulation. The Technical Committee met briefly with the Fiber Research & Test ing Subcommittee primarily to discuss a proposed Round-Robin to correlate laboratory and test procedures. The two items to be studied are surface area tests and wet classification tests concerning fiber lengths. The Subcommittee has agreed to spearhead this pro ject toward establishing procedures for the Technical group to follow in interlaboratory testing. Respectfully submitted, . Carroll S.

Upon calling for a reading of the Minutes of the 1975 Spring Meeting of the Institute, it was moved by S. G. Dixit, seconded by C. E. Stiefken, and so carried, to dispense with the reading thereof. 2.. In the absence of Treasurer M. J. Scanlan, the Financial Report as of August 31, 1975, was presented by Vice President E. A. Morris. The cash balance as of September 1, 1974, amounted to $14,051.44. During the fiscal year under review, receipts totaled $53,045.36 and expenditures were $33,205.50 for general purposes and $12,206.16 for the Litigation Defense Fund, leaving $21,663.14 as the cash balance on August 31, 1975. Taking assets and liabilities into account, the actual net worth between the two organizations at year- end was $21,615.74 ($S,599.21 earmarked for the Corporation and $13,063.93 in the Litigation Defense Fund). Please note that no funds had been transferred to the Corporation as of August 31, 1975. Vice President Morris advised that the financial records for the fiscal year had been audited by Dreslin and Company, Certified Public Accountants, and had been found to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis con sistent with that of the preceding year. President Kuzmuk reported that since there was a balance of approximately $13,000.00 in the Litigation Defense Fund, the Board of Governors does not currently anticipate the need for another assessment on the members. - The complete Report of Funds as of August 31, 1975, is appended to these Minutes as Attachment I.4 4. In presenting Remarks of Legal Counsel, W. B. Alcorn, Jr., Esq., of Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, reported that little had happened since the last meeting in the Tyler Litigation except for the inter vention of some additional plaintiffs and of two insurance compan ies who paid workmen's compensation claims to the workers who are now plaintiffs in the case. The two insurance companies who inter vened against the defendants, including ATI, are asking for indem nification and reimbursement for the claims they have paid. The prospect of a voluntary dismissal for ATI still exists -- in return for ATI voluntarily making documents from its files available to the plaintiffs. It is possible the Institute will be dismissed by either the February or the June 1976 meeting.

Audits New Product Review PRODUCTS LIABILITY Traditionally, production and quality control have been in a battle.' Quality control was considered to be too conservative in rejecting parts and products for shipment. Production was considered to be too liberal with prime interests being to put the product in the hands of the customer quickly to keep back log down. But, now things are changing. Production and sales depart ments perhaps did not consider the impact of "product liabil ity" and now they must. Every product which comes off the shipping dock creates the possibility of "product liability" suits. Courts are becoming more liberal in their interpretation of who xs at fault. Customers are becoming aware of their rights if a product fails and causes them bodily harm. The bandwagon effect of increased individual claims means that typical lawsuits against manufacturers have moved from $50,000 per claim to $2 million. Product failures can result with such suits as: 1. $400,000 awarded to an employee who was burned by hot oil after being told by the foreman to proceed with the job because there probably was no danger. 2. $2.5 million dollars pending against a manufacturer by a male employee whose long hair was caught in a machine, causing him head injuries. ' 3. A manufacturer changed the compound mixture for "0" rings and did not advise the customer of the change. The rings failed in the braking system of a snow-` mobile. The suit is pending, (not Garlock) 4. A bottle containing a liquid clearly stated that it was poison, but an adult who could not read or write drank the liquid and died. The manufacturer stated that he did all that was necessary to warn people that the product was poison. The court held other wise, however, saying that the manufacturer should have placed a skull and crossbones on the bottle for the benefit of those who could not read. At a recent seminar in Hartford, Connecticut with Colt and Aetna, two attorneys made presentations on the subject of "product liability." The plaintiff attorney made the following general comments: 1. A company's general awareness of a problem or potential problem could cost the company $2.5 million dollars. . Facilities that have a high potential of fire are likely to be sued success fully if it can be demonstrated that they did not take all possible steps to protect the employees in the event they were burned. Where there is a suspicion or probable problem which could affect the lungs of an employee in a facility, another successful suit is likely to result if it can be demonstrated that the company did not take every conceivable measure to investigate the possible damage to lungs and set up appropriate counter . measures to protect the employee. 2. A company or manufacturer must anticipate how its products will be used and misused. The plaintiff attorney indicated that a company, must warn poten tial users of possible danger. Additionally, he felt that companies had a continuing duty to warn users of possible problems. The presentation made by the defense attorney included a number of points as follows: 1. A manufacturer must make every conceivable effort to assure that the product was perfect when it left the plant for shipment. 2. He agreed with the plaintiff attorney that a company must anticipate how the product will be used and mis used. For example, he indicated that when a company ships its product to a distributor, agent, or other intermediary, the manufacturer continues to be libel for where that product is used. The manufacturer must investigate to make sure that his product is being used for what it was designed to do. 3. Where there is a margin of doubt, the court will generally support the plaintiff if the impression was that the manufacturer did not really care about the potential risk of using his product. 4. Generally speaking, if there are any alterations made on your product, this can be an excellent defense for the manufacturer. -2- 5. Care must be used with the records that are kept. If the records show that the manufacturer was more inter ested in stock price than the consumer, the records are likely to be used against the manufacturer because it demonstrates that he did not seem to care enough to find out about potential problems when the product gets in the hands of the consumer. 6. If a manufacturer does not warn potential users and his defense is that it would have been too costly to conduct a warning, the couTt is likely to rule against the manur facturer. The attorney used General Motors as an example Last year. General Motors spent $50 million dollars on recalls. The $50 million dollars came Tight out of profits, but they actually had no other choice but to recall. Not to have gone through with this procedure could have resulted in individual suits which would have exceeded the $50 million dollars spent. General Comments and Trends: 1. Claims are on the increase and come in two, three, four, and/ five years later than what would be assumed. ' 2. Dollar claims are on the increase. Colt expects to pay in excess of one million dollars in 1976. 3. In some states, like Mississippi, employees can sue individual managers if it is determined that they were lax in seeing to it that the employee's health was protected. 4. Executives are the only ones covered by our insurance carrier. There is no coverage for lower levels such as middle-management. . 5. Employees, as well as customers, must be made aware of potential risks to them. 6. Every manufacturer should set up a program to anticipate and avoid potential "product liability" suits. Steps include: a. What are the highest risk products? . b. Warnings to be included in all literature, and on products if at all possible to do so. c. Develop a program of "awareness" directed toward engineering, manufacturing, marketing departments, etc. This "awareness" program would include management at all levels. -3- d. Each manufacturing facility should create a "product liability'1 committee. Members of the committee should include the highest management level from each of the departments, such as manufacturing, marketing, engineering, etc. Representation from design engineering, quality control, and purchasing is also recommended. The . committee's responsibility would be to investigate products in terms of potential liability and when this is determined, recommend solutions or intel ligent choices which will resolve potential problems B. .Two hundred ten member companies participated in a Machinery and Allied Products Institute survey with the following results: 1. Claims are on the increase; 156 of the 210 companies indicated that in the ten year period 1965 through 1975, "product liability" suits amounted to $826 million (estimated). We called MAPI to find out what the dollar amount of actual settlements was and they indicated that there was no data available on what the direct settlements or out of court settlements might be. They estimated, however, the ratio would be about 1 to 10. For example, in a $1 million suit, the settlement would probably be about $100,000. 2. Sixteen* percent (16%) indicated that the upsurge in claims has inhibited the development of new products or contributed to the discontinuance of existing products. We asked if the discontinuance of products was a result of potential liability suits or lack of profit fFom individual products. The response was that no one could be sure.3 3. Many companies and individuals complain about govern mental involvement in business and industrial matters; and yet, a good sized group of the firms participating indicated that legislation is indispensable to the solution. -4- RISK CRITERIA Purpose: Identify those products which pose a significant risk for potential loss; subject those products to more stringent design, manufacturing, and marketing controls. A. Definitions 1. "Product" means any product which is: a. ready for end use; b. processed further by a customer into an end product; c. sold as a component for an end product; or d. processed by a customer into a component for an end . ' product. 2. "Dangerous" means a physical condition or prospective use . which may cause harm or major economic loss unless dealt with carefully. B. Risk Criteria A product is to be classified as having significant risk when ever one of the following conditions exists: 1. The product is inherently dangerous. 2. The product can become dangerous either because of physical characteristics which deteriorate with time, or prolonged use. 3. The product conceivably be used in an improper manner, rendering it inherently dangerous, or dangerous in its mechanical applications. 4. The product will probably be used functionally in a mechanical application or in an activity which is dangerous. 5. The product, by the nature of its installation, will not be accessible, except at potentially great cost, and may be subjected to deteriorating conditions which cannot be observed. 6. The product, because of heavy use or long service life, provides a base for major economic loss in the event of unreliable performance. ' 7. The product, if defectively designed or manufactured, is dangerous. The division Product Liability Committed should review the quality control procedures for all significant risk'products and assure that the quality of processing, inspection, and testing is con sistent with the risk. -5T < WARRANTIES Highly competitive markets are exerting an increasing pressure for expressed, product guarantees, and subtly prompting implied guarantees through promotional brochures, advertising copy, sales presentations, rendering of technical advice, and other customer contact. At the same time, changes in the law of product liability have im posed stringent responsibility on the manufacturer for product quality control, especially when expressed or implied representations are made concerning quality, useful life, or fitness of a product for a par ticular purpose. This makes it necessary to give special attention to the issuance of guarantees and the review of all product literature. It is essential to keep the following points in mind when reviewing existing materials or developing literature for new products. 1. Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale guarantee that products will be "merchantable", that is, of good material and workmanship. No representation should be made concerning the fitness of a product for a particular purpose or use. 2. Any guarantee (beyond merchantability), whether verbal or written, express or implied, shall be reviewed first by the ' Legal Department, and then submitted to the Group Vice President for approval. Requests for guarantee approval will be accompanied by convincing technical data and reports which precisely and quantitatively demonstrate the validity of warranty representations. 3. . When expressed guarantees have been approved for specific products, each employee who has customer contact or pre pares written material for customer distribution must be familiar with the scope as well as the limitations of such guarantees. Certificates should be obtained through the Legal Department. 4. All advertising copy, sales brochures, press releases, and other product promotional literature shall be submitted to the Legal Department for review and approval before release or publication. 5. Employees must exercise cautious judgment in making verbal representations concerning product quality in general. (As a rule, understatement is preferred to overstatement.) Particularly in the area of technical advice, limitations on accuracy or sufficiency should be stressed. Any doubts concerning the implementation of this policy should be resolved by inquiring through the Legal Department. -6" ?I COMPLAINT AND CLAIMS PROCEDURES t 1 Purpose; Develop a system that provides for prompt and equitable ' settlement, as well as effective follow-up to minimize the possibility of recurrences. The division Product Liability Committee should develop a written complaint and claims procedure which: 1. Assures a prompt and equitable response. 2. Minimizes the customer's and company's economic loss. 3. Provides identification of high risk product claims. 4. Obtains field information which will enable improvement of products and processes. 5. Alerts the Insurance Department and Legal Department in the event of property damage or personal injury. The need for promptly alerting these departments is stressed. 1 RECORDS RETENTION Purpose: Establish criteria for developing records and record retention systems, emphasizing high risk products, to improve defense position. The division Product Liability Committee should assure that records are developed in the specific areas related to product safety and liability. It shall develop a list of the specific documents (with titles and form numbers). Th.e general categories of records which need to be considered are: 1. Customers' stated requirements. Results of review of . customers' specifications. 2. Development records. . 3. Manufacturing instructions and records. 4. Inspection procedures, standards and results. 5. Material review records. 6. Results of process, product and systems audits. t 7. Quality Summary Reports. 8. Customer claims correspondence and dispositions. . 9. Verbal communications with customers pertinent to require ments, product applications and claims. 10. Trip reports. 11. Corrective action taken. The division Product. Liability Committee, in cooperation with Records Management, will establish retention schedules for docu ments deemed relevant to product liability. AUDITS Purpose: Verify effective implementation of the policy. The division Product Liability Committee should develop plans for implementing the policy and submit them to the Group Vice President for review. The plans shall'include a procedure by which the division audits its own compliance. . / -9% NEW PRODUCT REVIEW U Purpose: Control design safety and functional adaptability. Each division Product Liability Committee should review all product design specifications to insure compliance with association standards, government codes and customer requirements. It is suggested that the committee: 1. Develop the systems necessary to implement the product review objective. This will include: a. definition of "new product"; b. an administrative system at the plants and contribu tions from staff groups to assure that all new products * are brought to the committee's attention; c. a documentation system which substantiates that thorough reviews have been made and that confirming copies are sent to the Group Vice President. 2. Develop a design review procedure by which the designer is required to submit a complete description of: the product, its intended use, expected life, service environment, the testing performed during product development, potential' defects and potential hazards in the use of the product, and estimated market potential. - 3. Develop a manufacturing control plan, to include review of: a. the manufacturing plan; b. the inspection and testing plan, including documentation; c. r3w material control plans; d. process control procedures; e. material review procedures; f. rework and repair controls; g. control of design changes; . h. investigation of safety-related complaints; i. corrective action plan. 4'. Develop a procedure to review product liability losses which may suggest the need for changes within the division. At the outset, the committee should identify all the significant "\\ risk products and subject those products to the review provided above. -10- Jo Iaj'/CD // j: 1577 c^.tf'UJCNr --'i;.OCK 1N.C.

Should the products be categorized as to (1) potential physical injury to a person and (2) damage to equipment. Can we categorize our products without the knowledge of what the end use is far our product? 3. Biggest area of exposure far us now is 'asbestos1. It /was agreed that we would work on this particular product first and through our experiences, apply them to our other products. a. Bill Price and John Guffey were assigned the responsibility by Mr. Townsend to chair a labelling program in asbestos. They are to see that our labelling program satisfies all our objectives and it is to be implemented by January 1, 1978. b. Mr. Guffey brought up the point that most ocmpanies have lost 'product liability suits because of their 'failure to warn'. After sane discussion, it was the unanimous opinion of the committee that we immediately begin to label all advertising of our products that contain asbestos with the following phrase: CAUTION Contains asbestos fibers. Avoid creating dust. Breathing asbestos dust may cause serious bodily harm. ) PRODUCT LIABILITY OOttUTTEE MINUTES Page 2 7/26/77 c. Other areas in which labelling should be dene are: (1) CA Sheet (2) Spool heads of braided asbestos material. (3) Labels inside boxes of our products that are sent to our distributors. d. It was suggest that letters be sent to all of our distributers stating the following: "Ihclosed please find 'Caution' labels which we strongly recaimend that you, as our distributer, pass cn to all end users of our products containing asbestos." There was a discussion as to which phrase should be used on these labels: (1) CAUTION Contains asbestos fibers. Avoid creating dust. Breathing asbestos dust may cause serious bodily ham. (2) DANGER Cancer hazard. Contains asbestos fibers. Avoid creating dust. R?cni a marketing point of view, it was suggested that the lumber (1) phrase be used fa? all labelling. However, Mr. Lynn is to contact cur legal department at corporate headquarters to find cut which one they feel we should use. After an answer is received fraa Mr. Lynn, Mr. Stay will proceed in having these letters/labels sent out. e. Mr. Schaefer was concerned as to how the asbestos sheets should be labeled. Also, whether those sheets which did not shew a Garlock trademark, did they need to show a warn ing label. . It was decided that all sheets will be inprinted with the warning label as socn as Mr. Lynn finds out which one to use.

' 2. l For the benefit of our guests, Mr. Panarites reviewed what the conmittee had acccnplished since the first meeting that took place in June. Copies of the minutes of the meetings were given to the guests. ' Mr. Guffey recently attended an A.T.I. Conference (Asbestos Technical Institute) and he enlightened us cn the new regula tions in California which requires the end user to register with the state when any hazardous materials are used. The state does not consider all farms of asbestos as hazardous in themselves but does consider any asbestos products labeled with the "Caution" label as hazardous. Therefore any product that we (Garlock) now label would be considered hazardous and would require the end user to register. Raybestos-Manhattan received a lot of feedback from their custo mers that indicated they would lose business to companies who do not label. They have converted to a new warning label which: A. California does not require to be registered. B. Continues to satisfy the goal of warning users of their products. This new label (Shown below) will be used on all dust supressed cloth. Compression Packings and Compressed sheet at Garlock. It will be used in all locations rather than having separate inven- tcries for California. continued / ~` PRODUCT LIABILITY COMinTEE MINUTES Page ? 10/25/77 NOTICE This asbestos product is manufactured with a dust supress- ing binder for the express purpose of locking-in fibers during normal use. Care should be used while handling all asbestos products so as to avoid abuse and excessive dust emission. For detailed infonration consult the recorrmended work practices handbook Use and Handling of Asbestos Textile Products published by the Asbestos Information Association. A copy will be sent to you on request. . Comp*.6-lion Packing Viviiion GaAZock Jnc Sodui, New YoJik 14505 Mr. Hanke asked that Mr. Guffey contact Johns/Manville to see what they are doing and also to contact R/M and find out who they contacted in California to get the okay on the above notice. This infonration to be forwarded to Mr. Hanke. The question, "If a distributor does not use the labeling and we don't know about it, will we be held liable?" Probably not, i however, if we do know and we don't do anything about it, we would most likely be liable. General consensus was that the sales persons should check out our distributors once in a while to see if they are labeling like they are suppose to. The sales person should report back by way of a letter as to what he found so we have record of it. 3. Messrs. LeRoy, Schaefer, Stay and Lynn met previously to this meeting to discuss putting products in proper "risk criteria". Because of the hundreds of various products we make, it pre sented many complications as to how this could be done and therefore. Hr. Panarites asked Mr. Holwerda if from his ex perience at other divisions could he help us out. Mr. Holwerda pointed out that at one of the divisions they set up their risk criteria by the number of law suits for a particular product. Mr. Guffey said that Compression Packing was now recording case histories of product applications (i.e. when a part was installed and how long it lasted). As was pointed out, the products we nake 'wear out'........we make replacement parts. Therefore, at what point does our liability cease because the part should have been replaced. Mr. Rudolph said there were too many variables to this question and it would depend on the particular incident. Some discussion regarding special meetings of our distributors and sales people regarding product liability and their involvement with it. PRODUCT LIABILITY C0I-22TTEE MINUTES Page 3 10/25/77 4. Many distributors have been sending in letters requesting whether Garlock would carry them under their Product Liability Insurance. All of these letters are being referred to Mr. Smith for reply. 5. Mr. Holwerda pointed out that the Consumer Protection Safety Corrmission requires that a report be issued should an injury occur to someone when using a "consumer product". This report mast be filed within 10 days to the ccnmission by the company who made the product. After seme discussion, it was decided that we, Garlock, do not make a "consumer product"; we only maker parts that go into a consumer product and therefore this would not apply to us. 6. Ihe meeting adjourned at 11:00 a.m. 7. The next meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 29, 1977, 8:00 a.m. in the Personnel Conference Roam, bldg. 6-1. 8.

Design, Development, and Engineering (see attachment) received JUN 7 78 law department GARLOCK INC. II Design, Development, and Engineering A product begins with its design, and that is also where the exposure of products liability begins. Most complaints initiating prod ucts liability suits contain a count alleging defective design. If the plaintiff can persuade the court and/or the jury that the design of the product which caused the injury or damage was defective and that the injury or damage was caused by the defect, in most jurisdictions he will have proven his case. As a manufacturer proceeds through design, prototyping, testing, and engineering, he would do well to keep in mind such questions as those set out below. Design 1. What is the product's purpose? What will it do? 2. Where, how, and by whom will it be used? In what environment? For how long? 3. Do you, have established qualifications--education and/or experience--for design engineers? Training programs? 4. Are design engineers sufficiently indoctrinated in potential products liability hazards and their consequences? 5. Does your company have a formal design review program? If so, who participates? 6. Do you have a system of "feedback" to take advan tage of the performance history of the same or similar product? 7. In building to the customer's design, what special consideration is given to your possible responsi bility for the finally approved design? Have you consulted with the customer on the design? What of your obligation--as a manufacturer experienced in the field--to warn the customer of potential hazards in following his design? 8. Can the product be manufactured and sold at a profit and still meet or exceed: RECEIVED JUN7 78 law ocpa^tment GARLOCK INC. 9 a. Labels or warnings places: prominent location, legibility, understandability, durability; and b. Review and approval of warning labels or plates by law, engineering, and safety departments and/or by Products Reliability Committee. 16. Does design incorporate purchased parts? From re liable and time-tested vendors? Does vendor maintain records sufficient to trace shipments from him by shipment, batch, or lot number? Does vendor carry products liability insurance? Have you inspected vendor's manufacturing facilities and quality control system? Does your purchase order require vendor to certify compliance of his part or component with applicable safety standards? 17. Does the design allow for human error? (E.g., errors arising from fatigue, boredom, insufficient training, emotional or physical upset, etc.) Does the design require a human factors analysis? 18. Does your design review require a failure mode and effects analysis, fault-free analysis or other systems-type approach? 19. Does your system of design review and evaluation provide for recheck and reevaluation prior to ap proval for production? Some manufacturers employ a three-ply system of design review: preliminary design review, intermediate design review, and final design review. 20. Are your design reviews and evaluations recorded and this documentation preserved against the possi bility of its use in connection with some future claim? NOTE: We reemphasize that these questions are merely suggestive of the kinds of questions that manufacturers must ask themselves as they design new or improved products. We hope they may encourage the development of design review and checklists tailor-made to the individual company and product situation. Testing 1. Is a prototype of the product necessary? 2. What tests should be conducted? Who defines stan dards for testing? (NOTE: It is most important to define in detail the standards applicable to the product.

Outside Suppliers-Insurance Coverage of Garlock LP 100:1 On Tuesday, 25 October, a meeting of the Product Liability Commitee was held in bldg. 6-2 from 9:00-12:00 a.m. There were fourteen people present which -included, in addition to the "regulars", Pete Hanke, Bill Rudolph (Asst. General Counsel, Colt), Jack Maher, Joe Holwerda (Director of Insurance, Colt) and George Townsend. I took notes of that meeting which are in the file. Two of the subjects discussed involved problems assigned to Law Department and these are: 1. Special warning label or statement for California customers John Guffey had written a letter a few days before outlining the situation in California which now has a rule requiring everyone in the state who buys products containing asbestos must register that fact with some State agency. He learned this at a recent meeting of the Asbestos Textile Institute. This has caused considerable confusion and is resulting in the loss of business by asbestos products suppliers who, under the existing Federal rule, have to put a caution label on such products. This automatically triggers the requirement that the buyer must thus report that to the State. Many asbestos product suppliers are not labeling their produets and therefore customers are switching to them in order to avoid this registra tion problem. Raybestos-Manhattan has designed a statement, whichtwill go on all their asbestos products which explains that/product is held together by a binder and there is very little likelihood of any dust being released in normal usage. They feel that this will reassure their customers. Guffey feels we ought to adopt the same wording. PS Hanke felt that we should make sure the wording is acceptable to the State so Guffey is going to find out what agency in the State should be contacted to get that information. Then, either he or Law Department will make the contact and get the ruling. In any case, apparently we are going to do that on all our products, not just those that go into California.2 2. "Named Insured" coverage of Garlock on suppliers product liability insurance policies - In the general discussion of product liability insurance, mention was made of many requests we get from distributors to put their names on our policy as a "named insured". It was pointed out that Colt has a policy against that and will not do so. The reason for this is that doing this would relieve the distributor from all liability and the 2 2. "Named Insured*' Coverage (cont'd) necessity for getting his own product liability insurance. It would cover any product failures and damages/injuries caused thereby, even though the fault may lie with the distributor and his handling of the product. All Colt will do is furnish us Certificate of Insurance to such distributors. However, later in the meeting we got on to the can goods line and the spray can situation. In products which we buy and resell "as is" such as lubricants, etc. in this line, we should ask the manufacturer of the cans (Spray-On, etc.) to make us a "named insured" on their product liability policy. It was decided that Law Department would provide Purchasing Department with the form letter to use in those cases. I have been given that assignment and will follow through. However, I must consult with Colt $r PS Hanke or ?) to make sure that the letter reads properly. Then I will get together with Ed Hardy and we will establish a procedure. / be: HD Retting RB Steinmetz, Jr. KT Schaefer Product Liability LP 120:2:6 Paralegal March 13, 1931 This refers to your nemo of March A, 19S1 under the above reference. I have discussed your nemo with Hal Retting and he endorses the reactivation of a Product Liability Coiar.ittee and he expects to attend at least some of the meetings of the Divisional Cocnittee. I will plan to attend at least those meetings which Hal is unable to be here for and I will see that questions which need his attention are passed along to him. / Hal did indicate that he would like to have any information that is available on the planned agenda for Divisional Committee meet ings. This will enable him to have a better handle on when matters of particular legal concern are planned for discussion. / He also feels that all the committees should maintain "minutes" of their proceedings and he would like to receive copies. These can be forwarded directly to him or via this office, whichever you prefer.

Schaefer Date: March 4, 1981 It has been two or three years since we have had an active Product Liability Committee. During the time of 1977 to 1979 the previous committee did a great deal of positive work in asbestos labeling and determining direction for asbestos products. We are in an era of product liability suits for actual or perceived product failure. It would seem that everyone has their lawyer waiting impatiently in the wings. It therefore behooves us to take the offense in terms of labeling, product design, information and modern ized sales education in all aspects in order to minimize product liability costs. / Rather than have one committee which meets every month, it is my proposal that each Profit Center set up its own committee. Each Profit Center Committee would be made up of the General Manager, Chief Engineer, Quality Manager and the Marketing Manager. The Finance, Personnel and Legal Departments and Vice President of Sales should be considered as part of each committee. They do not neces sarily have to be present for each and every meeting, but should be consulted for help and guidance. The Divisional Committee which is made up of the recipients of this letter will convene once a quarter, or it can be called in an emergency if there is a specific problem to be solved by the Division or a unit within the Division. Each unit Product Liability Committee will keep notes and send copies to this office. I would like to suggest, to begin with, that you have frequent meetings and I would like to see your schedules. In the files of each of the Profit Centers I am certain you will find Product Liability information referring to our 1977/79 committee. However, I am attaching some information to help you get started with each of your committees.

Warranties - Jack Lynn Contract between buyer and seller. Don't rely on warranties as a defense in a Product Liability case. A question was raised if we should acknowledge all incoming orders and in quiries on our own acknowledgement order which has our warrant inprinted on the back. Yes...because if a product liability suit is brought against Garlock, our warranty would have precedent over customer's warranty. Acknowledgements need not be sent to our distributors because we already have a signed agreement with them. Discussed whether all our products we ship out have installation instructions in them. In most cases, installation instructions are packed with shipment, however, only one instruction is sent out with each box or package. Therefore, when a distributor sells just one piece out of the package, there is not an in stallation instruction to go along with it. It was decided that we send additional copies of our installation instructions to each distributor for them to hand out. Since Garlock is showing good intent by supplying these instructions to the distributor, should a product liability suit occur, the onus would be placed on the distributor. 2. Warnings S Labeling - John Guffey Tabled until next meeting. PRODUCT LIABILITY COMMITTEE MINUTES Page 2 6/21/78 3, Material Safety Data Sheets - Harold Hughes All requests for completion of MSD sheets should be forwarded to Harold Hughes, He will supply the requesting company with information except of a proprietary nature, Mr. Hughes said that ve are not required to fill out an MSD sheet unless the material ie considered hazardous according to OSHA. However we have been receiving many requests along with revised OSHA-20 MSD forms that are requesting information that we should not be giving out. These forms have been attached for your information. * 4, Design, Development and Engineering - ME Panarites All units should have their engineering people review this section and come to the next meeting prepared to discuss items that apply to us, Example; are we keeping records; we have a formal design review program, etc. do 5, General Information . Ron Stay stated that because all the problems and law suits Johns.Manville has been haying with asbestos, they are banning smoking in all their plants. The question was brought up whethe* we should be doing the same at our facilities in Palmyra and Sodus. Mr, Guffey is attending an Asbestos Institute meeting in Quebec and this subject will be discussed at that time, Mr. Guffey will report back to the committee at the next meeting. Allied Chemical has taken the stand that anytime one of their employees is involved in handling hazardous material, including compressed asbestos sheet, etc,, for every 20npithey work with the hazardous material, they will have 40 minutes off, Also, they will take a shower and change clothes every hour and are closely watched by full-time supervision. In otherwords, in a period of four hours they only work 8Q minutes, It costs approximately $800 to change a flange gasket, 6, Booklet entitled "Company Programs to Reduce Products Liability" have been ordered and should be available to everyone by the next meeting, 7, The next meeting will be held on Thursday, July 20, 1978, 8:30 am, Personnel Conference Room, 8, Any additions or changes to these minutes should be brought to , the attention of ME Panarites, Distribution; J Guffey D Holmes H Hughes J Kbsowski E Kuhnen A Kuzmuk G LeRoy J Lynn M Panarites H Schaefer K Schoenfelder R Stay C Terr RECEIVEO Colt Industries JUt 17 78 LA .V GirARTMEt' GARLOCK INC.

Warnings S Labeling - Referencing minutes of the October *77 meeting Mr. Guffey wrote "several letters to the Occupational Cancer Control Unit at Berkeley, California referencing labeling of asbestos pro ducts in industry (like Raybestos-Manhattan was doing). After several phene calls, we finally received letters from three different departments of the Department of Health located in Sacramento, Cali fornia (copies attached), which in essence give instructions for labeling of asbestos containing wastes being disposed of, but say nothing regarding restrictions on the use of asbestos fibers in industry. It was therefore determined that our standard form of hazard label for asbestos products was acceptable for shipments. 2. Asbestos Information Association - Mr. Guffey reviewed information he had received from the AIA pertaining to Secretary of HEW Califarc's announcement that several steps would be taken to "inform doctors, workers and others about the increased risks of asbestos exposure." These steps are shewn on the attached sheets from AIA. Mr. Guffey suggested that perhaps the Garlock Legal Department and a representative frem Colt become more involved with the AIA. PRODUCT LIABILITY COMMITTEE MINIUES July 25, 1978 Page 2 8/1/78 3. Review Engineering Section of Product Liability Booklet Hr. Gordon LeRcy said that his department had reviewed 'this section of the P/L booklet and felt that we should begin to define and categorize our products as follows: 1. Made to customer specifications and designs. 2. Garlock design made to specifications of ASTW, RM\, etc. (compressed asbestos sheet) 3. Garlock design but not to any specifications (Gylon) Mr. LeRoy would be setting up a product review committee and felt that each profit center should set up their own committee. There would be further discussion regarding the engineering aspects of product liability at our next meeting. 4. Effective September 1st, smoking privileges at the Garlock de Sherbrooke plant would be abolished. Also, no one would be hired who presently smokes. This is also being done by Johns/Manville. 5. Mr. Holwerda reported on legislation related to product liability in the various states and its affect on industry. He also dis cussed hold-harmless agreements.6 6.

Regularly scheduled meetings will be held on a monthly basis. Everyone must attend or send a representative. The next meeting is scheduled for Thursday, December 14 at 8:00 am in the Personnel Conference Room (6-1). 2. Product Liability Claim - State of Louisiana (prison) suing Belmont Distributor (Garlock Inc.) regarding an explosion of a pressure cooker. Our insurance carrier is Aetna and they have obtained local counsel in Baton Rouge. We are in the process of getting our papers to . gether. Mr. Lynn will keep us informed. 3. Asbestos Booklet - It was the general consensus of the committee that the booklets should only be given out to those employees who work with asbestos. When an employee enters into a job in asbestos area he will be given an asbestos booklet during his orientation and asked to sign a card saying that he has read it. Mr. Panarites was to talk with Mr. George Townsend to get his approval on the above. 4. Labeling Program - Mr. Guffey said the program is going ) along well. 5. Gordon LeRoy spoke about the Product Review Committee they set up in Industrial Packing. They broke it down into three categories: PRODUCT LIABILITY COMMITTEE MINTUES November, 1978 (a) Molded Rubber - Listed all auto parts. Got out all customer specifications and reviewed kinds of testing required by customer and found that we had relaxed our requirements and in doing M/C testing. We reinstated many tests because of the liability aspects of it. (b) Garlock Design Products - ASTM, RMA specs, etc. We have developed many new compounds, therefore, we must completely reverify that our products meet all requirements that we specify in the cata logs. (c) Garlock Design - Klozures, etc. - company has never had a formal program. Most testing done by custo mers. Do not have formal program. Very difficult to test returned goods from customers. The other groups (Constructin Products, Hydraulic Components, Compression Packing), have not formed a Product Review Committee as yet and were requested to do so before the next meeting. 6. At our next meeting we would discuss the "Manufacturing" portion of the green booklet. 7. There was some discussion regarding a non-asbestos pro duct pamphlet for company's who will not use asbestos products. 8. OSHA is looking at cotton dust. We do buy a lot of cotton products, but are looking into buying more polyester. 9. Any additions or changes to these minutes should be brought to the attention of ME Panarites.

Product Review Committee - AA Hydraulic Components has formed a committee headed up ) by Charlie Terr, Compression Packing - Mr, Roy Whittaker is chairman of their committee with Dave White (Engineering), Tom Crannell (Marketing) and George Hayes (Manufacturing) SI as members. They will meet the first Tuesday of every month. 1 PRODUCT LIABILITY COMMITTEE MINUTES Page 2 12/1978 Construction Products has set up their committee and will be meeting next month. 4. A question was raised whether it would be possible for the salaried personnel who work around the asbestos could have a yearly x-ray like the hourly personnel. Mr. Panarites said he was sure this could be done and for them to check with the Medical Department to get it set up. 5. Mr. Panarites said that each group should write up reports on how their committees are doing, i.e. engineering, manufacturing, etc., relative to the product liability to keep the whole Product Liability committee abreast of all happenings. 6.

Mr. Panarties would be getting to gether with Advertising to have them make up a booklet for us to see at the next meeting before going to press. 2. It was brought to the attention of the Committee that Nicolett was charged by their union that they were discriminating against the employees by requesting a no smoking ban in their plant. The case was taken to arbitration and the arbitrator found in favor of the union. Mr. Panarites said that this decision is not binding to other companies. 3. Ron Stay said the marketing department had set up a reporting system from the salesmen to tell them what companies were not going to buy any asbestos products in the future. Mr. Stay had a notebook filled with these reports which probably con tained around 200+ companies. We, as a company, are not condemning the asbestos products we make, but tell our customers we do have alternatives. Kind of a * soft-sell' - alternatives do not las as long and cost more, etc. continued PRODUCT LIABILITY MINUTES Page 2 2/1979 4. Discussion of labeling process - it is felt that the labeling of our products with the asbestos warning has not hurt us in the business. 5. Jack Lynn informed us that there are approximately 70 new court cases on asbestos against Carlock. 6. Mr. Panarites asked that those units who have commitees to review the 'green book' and that we would be going over the aarketing area at our next meeting. Mr. Panarites also stated that most of the work we had done was in the area of asbestos and that we should begin to expand into other areas. 7. The next meeting would be held on Thursday, March 15, 1979 at 8t00 am in the 6-1 conference room. 8. Any additions or changes to these minutes should be brought to the attention of ME Panarites. cc: J Bolwerda P Hanke Colt Industries APR i; 73 TA*.

GARLOCK 5 'n rV-rV c . ` : Afit CrJ rH i= sr l'f'2 >/7F rV// Compression Packing Product Liability Committee Minutes of Meeting: Attended by: Wednesday, August 15, 1979 KM Artl TJ Donovan GD Hayes JD Lynn., FA Piccola RE White Discussion centered around class action suits involving compression packing products and the amount of our liability in application recommendations made by our people. In regards to asbestos, there has not yet been a Colt policy set forth. We are bound, however, to conform to all labeling and OSHA regulations. All dry asbestos sty.les have been dropped; any asbestos products produced by GARLOCK are encapsulated for safe handling. No orders are being accepted for dry asbestos products. When customers inquire as to why we no longer carry dry asbestos, we need only tell them that the line has been dropped for convenience. Should advise them, however, to discontinue use of dry asbestos unless they are willing to take the necessary precautions for safe handling. Our labeling system advises our customers of their responsibility to take precautions in the handling of all asbestos products by their employees or customers. Most lawsuits currently on the books are for shipyards; others for our customers' customers. No employee suits. No case has gone to courfe as yet. Under our "Conditions of Sale," legally we are bound only to replace or refund customer's money if our product fails. It must be proven that our product failed and that failure was not the customer's improper installation. We are bound to supply customer with a product that will work under the conditions outlined. If an order is received with the application information on the order, it is our responsibility to advise the customer that the product is not meant for the application if such is the case. Our distributors are acting as GARLOCK representatives and are assumed to have all the application information we do. It is our responsibility to keep them informed. Product Liability Committee Meeting - August 15, 1979 Page 2 When supplying a customer with a sample of a new product on which all testing has not been completed, it is advised that evidence, in writing, be provided that states, "supplied for evaluation only ... no test data available." It is GARLOCK's responsibility and not our distributors' to include this written evidence. Also, it is recommended that we have a follow-up system to collect the name of the end-user and results of using the new product for our product file and future use. This should be done on every sample or sale of service order. GARLOCK distributors must be informed that when breaking up a package of material that had contained a warning, the partial package must still contain the warning when sold to the end-user. If necessary, additional warning tags should be supplied by GARLOCK. Once notice has been given to distributors, it was recommended that GARLOCK salesmen check to be sure distributors comply with this requirement. GARLOCK currently has the cleanest, safest methods of handling asbestos products in the industry. The question arose as to whether we receive additional business because of it. The employee manual regarding hazardous materials is in the hands of ME Panarites in order to get Colt approval before distribution. GARLOCK has not made any decision at this time in regard to smoking employees working with asbestos products. All Material Safety Data Sheets distributed by Compression Packing are currently written by HR Hughes of the Lab in Palmyra. Next meeting to be held Wednesday, September 12, 1979 at 10 o'clock a.m. KM Artl 8/17/79 ( 1 f There are Some Things You Should f Know... Every person employed at GARLOCK where asbestos fiber is used should know that breathing excessive amounts of asbestos causes certain health problems. GARLOCK has taken many steps to protect you from exposure to harmful amounts of asbestos fiber To make these steps effective, you must follow III safe working rules on the job The health problems The health problems that have been connected with exposure to asbestos are these: Breathing excessive amounts of fiber in the air might result in a disease caused asbestosis -- a scarring of the lung tissue, which when severe makes it difficult to breath properly. Persons who smoke cigarettes and inhale excessive amounts of asbestos dust are at a greater risk of developing lung cancer. Asbestos alone does not appear to cause this disease, but it can make people who smoke cigarettes more likely to develop this cancer. Studies show that if you don't smoke cigarettes, asbestos exposure does not increase your risk of getting lung cancer. Persons exposed to excessive amounts of asbestos have a greater risk of developing Mesothelioma which is a rare cancer of the lining of the chest or abdomin. There also is some indication from uncon firmed studies that there might be a greater incidence of cancer of . the digestive tract in persons exposed to excessive amounts of airborne asbestos. The health problems You Will be required to do certain things on the job to help us protect you. Some of these are: You must do everything you can to prevent dust or getting asbestos fiber into the air where it could be inhaled. In some areas you may at times be required to wear a respirator temporarily or other forms of personal protective equipment. You must wear this equipment properly when ever it is necessary. 3 You will be requested not to smoke on the job if you might be exposed to asbestos. You will be urged for your health's sake to quit smoking completely. 4 You will not be permitted to take any asbestos material home from the plant in order to prevent exposing others. You will use facilities provided to change work clothes, and wash before going home. 5 If equipment is not working correctly, you must report it to your supervisor immediate ly. Be concerned -- not alarmed. Present cases of health problems we mentioned are related to working conditions that existed many years ago. As we became aware of risks, we began spending considerable sums of money to upgrade dust control systems to prevent excessive asbestos exposures. We are confident that as long as employees follow safe work rules and equipment is operated properly, no employee will be exposed to hazardous amounts of asbestos fiber in our operations. To assure continued control of risk, the company will regularly check asbestos-using operations with trained personnel. You must cooperate with these trained employees when they check your work areas. Government inspections may be made of our facilities to make sure you are not being exposed to hazardous levels of asbestos. The government has set standards that limit how much asbestos you can be exposed to. We have taken steps to abide fully with those regulations. \ W.! I i I Be concerned, not alarmed 'V VIOLATION OF HEALTH WORK RULES CAN RESULT IN DISMISSAL. After you begin work, you will be given an opportunity to learn more about the potential health risks of asbestos and whe: the company is doing to protect you on the job. You will be taught how to use personal protective equipment and other methods of protecting yourself. Because of the efforts of GARLOCK and your own efforts, it is likely that you will be as safe working for GARLOCK as in any other occupation or endeavor. That is the way we want it. We will not take chances with your health and we won't allow you to take chances with it. Violation of health work rules can result in dismissal.

This approval, he stated, was required in accordance with an informal policy requiring approval of the Board for expenditures in excess of $25,000. After discussion of the need for the proposed expenditure, upon motion duly made, seconded and unanimously carried the President was authorized to expend $46,000 for the purposes stated above. Asbestos Products A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Conference Room of Marine Midland Bank, 1 Marine Midland Plaza, Rochester, New York on Wednesday April 25, 1973 at 10:30 A.M., EST. At the request of the Chairman, G. P. Wiess reported that management was looking into the possibility of building a new asbestos textile mill in Quebec, Canada. Canadian Federal Government grants and a Quebec Government loan would be available for such a project. The estimated project cost to Garlock would be about $1,500,000. A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York, on Wednesday, May 30, 1973 at 10:00 A.M., EDT. Quebec Project At the Chairman's request, Mr. Wiess reported that he is working on the proposed asbestos plant project in Quebec and has sent an application for a govern ment grant. Asbestos Manufacturing was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company at Rochester, New York, on Wednesday, November 28, 1973 at 10:00 A.M. EST. ' The Chairman led a discussion of Mr. Cook's back ground memorandum to the Board dated November 16, 1973 concerning the corporation's problems and plans relative to the manufacture of asbestos products in the United States (at Palmyra, New York), Mexico (at Mexico City), Spain (at Barcelona), and Canada (at Toronto, and planned for Sherbrooke in Quebec Province). The Chairman explained the overall situation in the following terms. The corporation manufactures four asbestos products, compressed sheet, braid, yarn, and cloth. The manufacture of two of these products, compressed sheet and braid, does not involve to a substantial degree the re lease of particles of asbestos fiber, and hence does not create a potential problem of compliance with existing or anticipated governmental standards for the release of such particles to the atmosphere. By contrast, the manufacture of yarn and cloth does create a potential problem of compliance. At present the corporation in its manufacture of asbestos products outside the United States - that is, in Mexico, Spain, and Canada - is in compliance with the environmental standards in effect in those countries. Those standards are now less stringent than those in effect in the United States but are expected to be brought over a period of several years to levels approximating those in effect now in the United States. The corporation intends to make from time to time any changes to its foreign manufacturing facilities required in order to stay ahead of anticipated changes in foreign envdron- mental standards. As to its United States facilities, at Palmyra, the corporation is in compliance with the Federal standards promulgated under the Occupa tional Safety and Health Act and the corresponding New York State standards with respect to compressed sheet and braid, and by virtue of agreements in the nature of waivers obtained from state and federal safety authorities will be in compliance until . June 30, 1975 with respect to yarn and cloth. The corporation has two choices regarding the manufacture of yarn and cloth at Palmyra: either to make the substantial investment neces sary to bring the Palmyra facilities to full compliance by June 30, 197S, or to discontinue manufacture of yarn and cloth at Palmyra by that date. Management plans to make the latter choice and to transfer Palmyra's manufacture of yarn and cloth to the proposed new plant in Quebec, assuming that the corporation's application for a grant to assist in construction of the plant is acted upon favorably. New facilities can be equipped with the required safety features more economically than can long-existing facilities such as those at Palmyra. The Board then raised questions about the health of employees working with asbestos at Palmyra. Mr. Wiess stated that liability against the corporation has recently been found in one workmen's compen sation case of total disability of a Palmyra ex employee caused by asbestos end that two other such alleged cases are pending. In the case where liability has been found, payments of some $25,000 over five years will be due to the ex-employee for the corporation's account, and the ultimate total cost to the corporation including possible premium increases may be from $80,000 to $100,000. After discussion, the Chairman stated that the health procedures and tests administered for many years by the company doctor at Palmyra, by personnel of the Clifton Springs Hospital and Newark Medical Center, and by our insurance carrier, Qnployers Mutual Insurance Company of Wausau, for screening of new employees and monitoring of exposure to asbestos dust of present employees are con stantly reexamined and are believed to be adeguat e. n 9 I A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York on Wednesday, December 19, 1973 at 10:00 A.M.

Suit Against Asbestos Textile Institute The Chairman stated that the Corporation, which is a member of a trade association named the Asbestos Textile Institute, had received a letter dated January 18, 1974 from Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, counsel to the Institute. A copy of the letter was given to each director present. The letter stated that on January 2, 1974 seven individuals who either had worked at Pittsburgh Corning Corporation's formerly operative asbestos plant at Tyler, Texas, or were spouses of such workers had brought a class action in the Federal District Court in that city against that company, its parents PPG Industries, Inc. and Corning Glass Works, Incorporated, the Industrial Health Foundation, Inc. and the Institute. The complaint charged, among other things, that the Institute impeded the flow of information con cerning the health hazards involved in asbestos manufacture and thereby contributed toward the pulmonary diseases and, in some cases, deaths of workers at the plant. The Chairman stated that there was no indication at present that Garlock can or will be brought into the suit in any way. A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York, on Friday, March 1, 1974 at 10:00 A.M. At the Chairman's request, Mr. Wiess reported that the Canadian Government had offered a grant of $182,400 outright and $276,000 as a subsidy for 92 jobs at $3,000 each, for a total of $458,000, to facilitate the Company's proposed asbestos plant in Quebec, and that he would shortly meet with the Company's consulting engineers to discuss plans. Mr. Abell suggested that an additional grant be sought from the Province of Quebec and indicated the availability of an interest subsidy for certain loans. The Chairman stated that the conditions attached to the offered grant were being studied and that the project was under active consideration. A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York, on Wednesday, May 29, 1974 at 10:00 A.M. The Chairman stated that the proposed asbestos plant project in Quebec was rapidly coming to the point of decision and that the Canadian Government had in creased the size of its grant offered to the Company under the terms of a law expiring June 30, 1974 from 15% to 25% of the total capital cost. Mr. Abell stated that the Government of the Province of Quebec had funds to invest in commercial enterprises and that, if the project went forward, it might be ap propriate later in the summer to discuss with the provincial Government the possibility of its taking an equity position in the project, with the Company obtaining contracts to manage the project and to market the products. The Chairman stated that management was completing a report on the economics of the project and that he would like to convene a special meeting of the Board to consider the report and to decide whether to accept the offered grants and proceed with the project. After a discussion, the meeting was set for Monday, June 17, 1974 at 10:30 A.M. . A A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York, on Monday, June 17, 1974 at 10:30 A.M. Quebec Project _. The Chairman discussed the report entitled "Asbestos Textile Facility - Sherbrooke, Quebec," dated June 10, 1974, of which a copy had been forwarded to each director prior to the meeting. Mr. Cook stated that the Company's objective was to build the best and cleanest asbestos-processing plant in the world. Mr. Gearhart recommended that a long-term contract be negotiated with an asbestos mine company to ensure the continued availability of raw material; Mr. Waggershauser stated that there was no shortage of raw material that would justify such a contract. In response to a question from Mr. Wells, Mr. McMullen stated that there was little prospect that asbestos packing would become obsolescent. Mr. McMullen stated that management favored establishing the new plant as a separate corporation and selling , 50% of the equity to the Province of Quebec. Mr. Grady discussed financing of the project, the advisability of seeking long-term fuel and electricity contracts, and the possibility of obtaining approval for remission of import duty that would normally be charged on the machinery on order from West Germany. In summary, on behalf of management Mr. McMullen proposed to the Board that it approve the project as presented, specifically, that it approve (1) acceptance of the development incentives grant offered by the Canadian Government as explained at the May 29, 1974 Board meeting; (2) investment by the Company in the project of $1,761,000 of new money plus about $400,000 in working capital to be transferred from Palmyra upon the closing of asbestos textile operations there in mid-1975; (3) cancellation of R/A No. 21-11,438 for DM 1,454,513 (about $576,000), approved by the Board on April 24, 1974, for certain equipment for E.R.I.C.A., because this equipment will now be diverted to the Quebec project and its cost is included in the $1,761,000 of new money proposed to be invested in the Quebec project; and (4) negotiation with officials of the Province of Quebec and other appropriate governmental officials to seek additional development incentives and the sale of up to 50% of the equity to the Province. After discussion, the Board unanimously approved the Quebec project as presented. Quebec Project A meeting of the Board: of' Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Oak Hill Country'Club, Rochester, New York, on Friday, July 26, 1974 at 10:30 A.M. The Chairman reported that pursuant to the dis cussion at the previous Board meeting Garlock of Canada Ltd. had formally accepted the development incentives grant offered by the Canadian Govern ment in the estimated amount of $Cdn 894,250 to assist the proposed asbestos processing venture in Sherbrooke, Quebec. Mr. Wiess reported that oral discussions with officials of the Province of Quebec regarding further incentives and investment were proceeding favorably. A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Holiday Inn in Longview, Texas, on Tuesday, October 1, 1974 at 8:30 A.M. The Chairman stated that the Quebec project was proceeding as summarized in his memorandum to the Board of September 16, 1974, with a few changes in detail. He stated that Robert Pilmer, President of Garlock of Canada Ltd., would also be president of the new company# and that Mr. Pilmer together with Mr. Wiess planned to attend a ground-breaking ceremony at the site of the proposed factory in Sherbrooke, Quebec, on October 8, 1974, at which time Mr. St. Pierre, Quebec Minister of Business and Industry, would announce the project. Quebec Project A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company at Rochester, New York, on Friday, October 25, 1974 at 10:00 A.M. Mr. Cook stated that the company that is to own and operate an asbestos textile factory in Sherbrooke, Quebec, as previously approved by . the Board has been incorporated under Quebec law as Amiante de Sherbrooke Limitee. He stated that, as anticipated in Mr. McMullen's memorandum to the Board of September 16, 1974, the Quebec Industrial Development Corporation has now, by a letter of October 18, 1974 to the new company, offered to pay $576,000 for a 48% equity interest in the company and to provide an interest subsidy of up to $360,000 for a $1.2 million loan to be obtained by the company from a Canadian bank, probably the Bank of Nova Scotia. He stated the QIDC offer is subject to execution of a detailed agreement. The consensus of the Board was that the project should proceed as previously approved, with Garlock of Canada Ltd. obtaining in due course a 50% equity interest in the company and private Canadian in vestors obtaining the remaining 2% equity interest. Quebec Project A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Company, 1250 Midtown Tower, Rochester, New York on Friday, January 24, 1975 at 10:00 A.M. * The Chairman reported that construction of the factory for Amiante de Sherbrooke Limit^e in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada, was approximately on schedule. A meeting of the Board of Directors of Garlock Inc. was held pursuant to call of the Chairman at the Executive Offices of the Corporation in Rochester, New York, on Friday, July 25, 1975 at 10:00 A.
