Because IHF is inter national and because "health" better describes IHF's functions and programs, our Members overwhelmingly approved IHF Board of Trustees change of name recommendation at a special Membership Meeting, May 19, 1970 from: Founded 1935 Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc. to: INDUSTRIAL HEALTH FOUNDATION, INC. The symbol, IHF, has not changed, nor have our mission and objectives. l~BB 0015636^ PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE TO MEMBERS Robert T. P. deTreville. M.D., Sc.D. The year 1970, which was characterized by unprecedented progress in almost every area of environmental and occupational health in our industrial society, also saw the following major developments in IHF. IHF's image has been effectively updated by substitution of "health" for "hygiene" in our name, to cover all aspects of employee health conservation as well as environmental and occupational hazard control and prevention. We estimate that one employee in 10 (i. e., 8,000,000) in the United States now benefits directly from various programs of health research within our Foundation's membership. All workers, internationally, can benefit indirectly, of course, through IHF publications. IHF's laboratory research role in support of American industry, which is comparable to that of the Armed Forces Insti tute of Pathology to our military establishment, is growing steadily under Dr. Paul Gross' direction. A continuing educational academic role for IHF, now emerging, should become no less important to American industry than has been the Industrial College of the Armed Forces to our national security in matters of economic health. The most advanced project in this area now under way is our continuing educational course in employee mental health prepared with the American Institutes for Research for occupational health nurses (under National Institute of Mental Health sponsorship since 1965) which should be introduced into trial use in IHF's membership in 1971. Other instructional courses in prepara tion (or under consideration) deal with orientation in industrial hygiene for those whose experience has been limited to safety (i. e., how to cope with industrial hygiene provisions of new Federal legislation) and industrial hygiene and safety management for future industrial executives. 1 ] b"b" OoT5637_jI Undoubtedly, our field will be a much larger source of employment in the future, gener ating need for new forms of training and continuing education in such fields as biostatistics (data collection, storage and retrieval) in support of epidemiological research as well as docu mentation of compliance with occupational health and safety standards. Among IHF's research programs for 1971 are data collection studies on employee mental health and cigarette smok ing and sickness absence. Clinical and environmental information collected by industry--and fed anonymously into IHF's central repository of toxicological data--will have unique value in setting and validation of standards for human exposure, and this program will continue and grow as rapidly as experience and constraints of time and funds will allow and through liaison with organizations such as the American National Standards Institute. Industrial health gives every indication of being an idea whose time has finally arrived, and we in IHF wish to further its application and real progress in our field to the maximum advantage of all concerned. Companies and industries are being forced by austerity to apply the same type of sound management in the fields of environmental and occupational health that they are using in every other area of productivity and economic loss control. As a result, at a time when more superficial programs of all types are experiencing increasing difficulty in surviving, those which are soundly based (in relation to measurable benefits in employee health and safety for the limited costs incurred) are having a continued--and even an acceler ated--growth pattern. The increasing shortage of qualified industrial health personnel at the national level is being more widely recognized as having reached crisis proportions and alter natives to employment full time of qualified occupational health specialists will need to be found. The coming year and decade are bound to witness much greater utilization of non technical personnel who should perform more effectively, following completion of short courses under the continued competent professional occupational health supervision available within IHF. In conclusion, let me take this opportunity to express thanks to Foundation members for their past guidance in helping IHF bring into better focus the real health needs of industry's workers today, and to solicit their continued interest and support. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH Paul Gross, M.D. Director, IHF Research Laboratories This research is now conducted chiefly in the Industrial Hygiene Research Unit of the De partment of Occupational Health, Graduate School of Public Health, University of Pitts burgh; Department of Pathology of the Medical University of South Carolina; and Mellon Institute of Carnegie-Mellon Uni versity. ALUMINUM As the scientific literature contains conflicting information on the ability of various types of aluminum powders of respirable size to produce pulmonary fibrosis, in 1968, experimental animals (rats, hamsters and guinea pigs) were exposed to British and United States produced metallic powder via intratracheal injections and inhalation exposure chambers. The first research phase of this IHF pro ject was completed during 1970, Animals not sacri ficed at earlier stages were allowed to live out the majority of their life span, i. e., about two years. A report of research findings, now in preparation for publication, sheds some light on the chief areas of apparent conflict resulting from studies in other laboratories. Certain hypotheses, based on results of IHF's findings to date should be subjected to further experimental proof; therefore, our publication re presents a preliminary report of progress.

FIBROUS DUSTS When fibrous dusts are injected intratracheally, polypoid inflammatory lesions develop within four days in smaller bronchi and bronchioles. These tend to heal and disappear in time. These lesions are artifactual in the sense that they are not found in animals inhaling the same dusts. It is therefore reasonable to attribute the proliferative polypoid lesions to the particular technique by which the dusts have been introduced into the lungs. This work has been published: "The Pulmonary Response to Fibrous Dusts of Diverse Compositions." Paul Gross et al. Am. Ind. Hyg. Assn. J. 31:125-132 (MarchApril) 1970. The method of quantitating the fibrous dust and ferruginous bodies in lungs of Pittsburghers and the results obtained was reported at the Third Interna tional Symposium on Inhaled Particles (London, September 16-23, 1970) and will be published in the proceedings of this meeting. (Sponsors: Johns-Manville Corporation; PPG Industries; Pittsburgh Com ing Corporation; Raybestos-Manhattan, Inc.; U. S. Public Health Service.) ASBESTOS Because of an epizooty which decimated the rats and hamsters injected intratracheally with asbestos dust (chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite) treated in various ways to render the dust metal-free, new animals have been injected with these materials. These new animals are now under observation. Since the purpose of this study is to determine the locus of pathogenicity of asbestos dust -- particularly the carcinogenicity--the animals will be allowed to live out their lives.(Sponsor: U.S. Public Health Service.) 73 BB 0015639 1 FIBROUS GLASS The results of a study of the dust in the lungs of 20 long-term fibrous glass workers has been sub mitted for publication. The amount of total dust, the number of fibers per gram of dry lung, the dimensions of the fibers in the lungs of the fibrous glass workers were not significantly different from similar data derived from the lungs of Pittsburghers not occupationally exposed to fibrous glass dust. A new study has been begun on the rate of transport of fibrous dust particles from lung tissue to lymph nodes. Preliminary data indicate that only few fibers are transported to lymph nodes--and these are shorter and thinner than the average fiber found in the lungs. (Sponsors- Certain-teed Products Corporation; Johns-Manville Corporation; OwensComing Fiberglas Corporation; PPG Industries.) LIPID-COATED QUARTZ The lungs of rats injected intratracheally with quartz dust that had been coated with lipids extracted from the lungs of animals with "acute" silicosis were compared with the lungs of rats injected intratrache ally with the same quartz dust but uncoated. His- Itological examination and chemical determinations pf the lipid, hydroxyproline, and silica contents of the lungs disclosed no significant differences. The probable explanation is that the lipid coating on the quartz particles was removed too quickly by natural enzymatic processes. (Sponsor: Department of Health, Education & Welfare, National Institutes of Health.) COMMUNITY LUNG STUDY In order to determine the magnitude of the fibrous dust, and particularly, the asbestos dust bur den in the lungs of known asbestos workers as well as of people who have not lived in a large metropolis, selected lungs are being collected from people be longing in the above categories. The fibrous dust will be isolated, and quantitated optically according to methods elaborated in IHF's Research Laboratory and published. With the collaboration of Dr. John M. G. Davis of Cambridge, England, aliquots of the fiber suspensions will be examined with the electron microscope for the enumeration of submicronic fibers and the identification of chrysotile fibers.

Public Health Service, En vironmental Control Administration.) 4 MENTAL HEALTH PROJECT IHF's continuing education study on employee mental health and industrial nursing practices be ing conducted by the American Institutes for Re search is now in its fifth year. Activities during Years 1 and 2 were concerned primarily with the collection of relevant data on the current status of the role of occupational health nurses in working with the emotional and psycho logical problems of employees. The third year was devoted to analysis and interpretation of data and the fourth year to the development of instructional materials. During Year 5 efforts will be concentrated on program implementation, i. e,, how the final course will be packaged and made available to the total population of occupational health nurses. This project has been supported by a five-year grant from the National Institute of Mental Health and it is anticipated that continuing studies will be needed for maintaining the viability of the course as well as for collecting useful data relating to the extent and types of mental health problems in in dustry as seen by the occupational nurse (data not now available). IHF/ATMI RESPIRATORY STUDY A study of cotton textile workers was under taken by IHF in December 1969 at the request of the American Textile Manufacturers Institute (ATMI) to attempt to determine whether or not there are respiratory problems peculiar to the cotton textile industry in the United States, and, if so. to identify the causative factors and thus permit their control through industrial health and hygiene practices. A respiratory condition termed byssinosis has been found in other countries, but has been vaguely defined and no specific patho-physiologic or etiologic descriptions have been given. It is characterized by subjective complaints of tightness of the chest or difficulty in -breathing which may or may not be accompanied by a significant decline in Forced Ex piratory Volume (FEV). The Foundation's study was designed around a 12-plant matrix into which could be placed proto types of plants processing only cotton, according to increasing rates of card speed and decreasing grades of cotton. To elicit reliable information regarding subjec tive symptoms, it was necessary to construct a questionnaire to be administered to employees when the prototype plants were visited. A bellows-type spi rometer was selected for measuring pulmonary func tion in the field. The results of replies to questionnaires and of pulmonary function tests on all workers tested have been analyzed and compared. On the basis of the preliminary data it now appears that a specific causative agent may possibly be isolated, perhaps related to the microbiological components of cotton dust. 7"bbT 0015640 1 SERVICES FOR MEMBERS ENGINEERING A plant visit and/or survey requested by a member company can provide management an upto-date review of the industrial hygiene aspects of its total plant and/or corporate facilities. Supplementing its broad basic industrial hy giene capabilities, IHF has maintained its relation ship with the Mellon Institute of Camegie-Mellon University in order to be able to utilize its staff and facilities for the analysis of complex airborne con taminants. In searching for the best solution to a unique or specialized problem, IHF obtains expert advice through its Engineering Committee, which includes fully qualified industrial hygiene engineers from a broad sample of industry. IHF's Engineering Services are one of the im portant ways in which the Foundation is helping to meet the nation's needs for improved occupational safety and health coverage to plants of all sizes and types in industry. John A. Jurgiel is IHF's staff Industrial Hy giene Engineer. OCCUPATIONAL MEDICINE A medical survey requested by a member com pany will provide its management with a current review of the occupational health aspects of its total plant and/or corporate facilities. All medical surveys or consultant visits are followed promptly by a technical report which pro vides an objective, detailed evaluation of medical aspects of the facilities surveyed, a discussion of any problems or potential problems encountered and recommendations, including steps to be followed to upgrade facilities to acceptable standards of occupa tional health practice. Such an objective medical review is often of value even to companies with well staffed occupational health programs. Through membership in IHF and utilization of services available, a company demonstrates a deter mination to act in good faith in protecting the health of its employees, which is the basic requirement of the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. Dr. Daniel C. Braun is Manager of IHF's Occu pational Medicine Services. INFORMATION The Information Services Department supplies photocopies, compiles bibliographies, recommends additional sources of information, secures needed in formation from outside collections and carries out literature searches. Simple requests are handled free to members while entailed searches are furnished on a cost basis. With an increasingly rapid production and ac cumulation of technical and scientific literature on man's environment and on health protection and conservation, the assistance of IHF's staff to its mem bers helps them to keep abreast of important new changes and innovations. Mrs. Madeline C. Carey is IHF's Information Specialist and Managing Editor of the Industrial Hygiene Digest. 6TH ENGINEERING DISCUSSIONAL "Environmental Health Hazard Control in the Plant" was the subject of the 6th Engineering Discussional held at the Flying Carpet Motor Lodge in Pittsburgh on January 13-15, 1970. Especially designed for plant engineers, topics covered were: industrial hygiene and plant engineer ing interface; environmental control regulations af fecting plant engineering; environmental control pro cedures in a plant; and a round table discussion-- "Plant Engineer! Air your environmental control problems." Sponsored by IHF's Engineering Committee, the discussionals are not limited to engineers only but include all those working on these practical problems and afford an excellent opportunity for open discus sion in an "off the record" setting. Dust samples are taken as part of each mill survey. Above, John A. Jurgiel, IHF staff Industrial Hygiene Engineer, is adjusting an air sampler. MEMBERSHIP SERVICE MEETINGS IHF headquarters facilities provide an excellent meeting place for members to discuss environmental and occupational health problems on a common meeting ground. Meetings of this type only take place at the request of Foundation members and are structured according to their individual needs. IHF's full-time staff of occupational health specialists are available to participate if called upon, supplementing expertise of industry's own health service personnel. Members may contact Mr, Harry M. Bowman, Executive Vice President, or any member of the staff to discuss or arrange for such meetings. 5 | BB 0015641 | PUBLICATIONS (partial listing) INDUSTRIAL HYGIENE DIGEST A monthly abstract journal of news, book reviews and abstracts of the world's literature in occupa tional and environmental health.
