Mr. Edward C. Ames Public Relations Manager
Corning Fiberglas Corporation
Nicholas Building Toledo 1 Ohio
Dear Mr. Ames
Baumgardner In reference to your letter regarding Mr. Albert
of Holland Ohio I regret to see that there has been any
belief that his condition could have been attributed in any
to handling or exposure to Fiberglas This I don't

U. Gardner of Saranac and others has indicated exposure
to glass fibers involves no hazard to the lungs
I believe it is clear that Mr.
due to other causes entirely
Baungardner's
condition is
Note Could it be properly added that
such causes were due to exposure over a
period of years to asbestos products
which are quite different in physical
character and have demonstrated them-
selves to cause asbestosis when subjected
to an individual for long periods of time
Very truly yours
