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: Industrial Hygiene Foundation of America, Inc. to: INDUSTRIAL HEALTH FOUNDATION, INC. The symbol. IHF, has not changed, nor have our mission and objectives. Founded 1935 u 01 *33 324 PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE TO MEMBERS Robert T. P. deTreville. M.D.. Sc.D. The vear 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 01 133 3244 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 bicstatistics idata 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 rapidlv 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 emplovee 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. 2 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 c^nflictin information on the ability of various types c aluminum powders of respirable size to produc pulmonary fibrosis, in 1968. experimental animal (rats, hamsters and guinea pigs) were exposed t British and United States produced metallic powde via intratracheal injections and inhalation exposur chambers. The first research phase of this IHF pre ject was completed during 1970. Animals not sacn ficed at earlier stages were allowed to live out th majority of their life span, i. e., about two years. report of research findings, now in preparation fo publication, sheds some, light on the chief areas o apparent conflict resulting from studies in othe laboratories. Certain hypotheses, based on results o IHF's findings to date should be subjected to furthe experimental proof; therefore, our publication re presents a preliminary report of progress, ; Sponsors Aluminum Company of America. Reynolds Metal Company. Silberline Manufacturing Company. Inc U. S. Bronze Powders, Inc. and Valley Metallurgica Processing Company, Inc.) FIBROUS DUSTS When fibrous dusts are injected intratrachealh polypoid inflammatory lesions develop within fou davs in smaller bronchi and bronchioles.-These tento heal and disappear in time. These lesions are arc factual in the sense that they are not found u animals inhaling the same dusts. It is therefor reasonable to attribute the proliferative polypoi lesions to the particular technique by which th dusts have been introduced into the lungs. This wor has been published: "The Pulmonary Response t Fibrous Dusts of Diverse Compositions." Paul Gros et al. Am. Ind. Hyg. Assn. J. 31:126-132 (March April) 1970. The method of quantitating the fibrous dust an ferruginous bodies in lungs of Pittsburghers and th results obtained was reported at the Third Interne tional Symposium on Inhaled Particles (Londor 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 ra and hamsters injected intratracheally with asbestc dust (chrysotile, amosite, and crocidolite) treated i various ways to render the dust metal-free, ne animaU have been injected with these material These new animals are now under observation. Sim the purpose of this study is to determine the locus pathogenicity of asbestos dust -- particularly tl carcinogenicity--the animals will be allowed to Li' out their lives. (Sponsor: U.S. Public Health Service 01 133 324- FIBROUS GLASS The results of a study of the dust in the Junes 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 lune. 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 expo<ed to fibrous glass dust. A new study has been begun on the rate of transport of fibrous dust particle^ from lung tissue to Ivmnh 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-Manviile 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 tological examination and chemical determinations of the lipid, hvdroxyproline. and silica contents of the lungs disposed 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 os 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 ana the identification of chrysotile fibers. (Sponsor: U. S. Public Health Service, En vironmental Control Administration.) MENTAL HEALTH PROJECT IHF's continuing education study on employ mental health and industrial nursing practices b ing conducted by the American Institutes tor R search is now in its fifth year. . Activities during Years 1 and 2 were concerns primarily with the collection of relevant data on tr current status of the role of occupational heal: nurses in working with the emotional and psvch< logical problems of employees. The third rear w< devoted to analysis and interpretation of data an the fourth vear to the development of instruction; materials. During Year 5 efforts will be concentrate on program implementation, i. e.. how the fin; course will be packaged and made available to th total population of occupational health nurses. This project has been supported by a five-vea grant from the National Institute of Mental Healt and it is anticipated that continuing studies will b needed for maintaining the viability of the course a well as for collecting useful data relating to th extent and types of mental health problems in ir dustry as seen by the occupational nurse (data nc now available). IHF/ATMI RESPIRATORY STUDY A study of cotton textile workers was under taken by IHF in December 1969 at the request of th American Textile Manufacturers Institute (ATMI to attempt to determine whether or not there ar respiratory problems peculiar to the cotton textil industry in the United States, and, if so. to identif the causative factors and thus permit their contrc through industrial health and hygiene practices. A respiratory condition termed bvssinosis ha been found in other countries, but has been vagueldefined and no specific patho-physiologic or etioloei descriptions have been given. It* is characterized b; subjective complaints of tightness of the chest o difficulty in breathing which may or may not b 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 questionnaire to be administered to employees whet 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 o pulmonary function tests on alt workers tested hav been analyzed and compared. On the basis of the preliminary data it nov appears that a specific causative agent may possibl; be isolated, perhaps related to the microbiologies components of cotton dust. SERVICES FOR MEMBERS ENGINEERING A plant visit and/or survey requested by a member companv 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. 1HF has maintained its relation ship with the Mellon Institute of Carnegie-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 fuilv 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 w staffed occupational health programs. Through membership in IHF and utilization services available, a company demonstrates a det< mination to act in sood faith in protecting the neai of its emplovees. which is the basic requirement the Federal Occupational Safetv and Health Act 19/0. ` Dr. Daniel C. Braun is Manager of IHF's Occ pational Medicine Sendees. INFORMATION The Information Services Department suppli photocopies, compiles bibliographies, recommen additional sources of information, secures needed formation from outside collection? and carries o literature searches. Simple requests are handled fr to members while entailed searches are furnish* on a cost basis. With an increasingly rapid production and a cumulation of technical and scientific literature r man's environment and on health protection ar conservation, the assistance of IHF's staff to its men bers helps them to keep abreast of important ne changes and innovations. Mrs. Madeline C. Carey is IHF's Informa tic Specialist and Managing Editor of the Indusin Hygiene Digest. 6TH ENGINEERING DISCUSSIONAL "Environmental Health Hazard Control in ti Plant" was the subject of the 6th Engineering Di cussional held at the Flying Carpet Motor Lodge Pittsburgh on January 1*3-15,1970. Especially designed for plant engineers, topi covered were: industrial hygiene and plant enginee ing interface; environmental control regulations a fecting plant engineering; environmental control pr cedures in a plant; and a round table discussion- "Plant Engineer! Air your environmental contr problems." Sponsored by IHF's Engineering Committee, ti discussionals are not limited to engineers oniv b' include all those working on these practical problem and afford an excellent opportunity for open discus sion in an "off the record" setting. Dust samples arc taken as part of each mill survey. Above. Jobs A. Jurgiel. IHF staff Industrial Hygiene Engineer, is adjusting an air sampler. MEMBERSHIP SERVICE MEETINGS IHF headouarters facilities provide an excellen meeting place tor members to discuss environment? and occupational health problems on a comme meeting ground. Meetings of this type only take place at ti request of Foundation members and are structure according to their individual needs. IHF's full-tin staff of occupational health specialists are availab to participate if called upon, supplementing expert! of industry's own health service personnel. Members may contact Mr. Harry M. Bowma Executive Vice President, or any member of ti staff to discuss or arrange for such meetings. 5 01 133 3243 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.
