Johns-Manville's notes
In 1986, in the midst of the asbestos litigation, Manville's Barbara Diem read every issue of the magazine and summarized what she found worth noting, issue by issue, in a summary marked "Attorney's Work Product" (read the full summary). These are her 7 entries for 1925, in her words; each links to the magazine page it cites and to the page of her summary.

Uniform Specifications on Packings - Federal Specifications Board is constantly working on the unifying specifications so that all departments of the Government will use the same specifications when requesting quotations or ordering materials. The list includes Asbestos Metallic Cloth Packing and Gaskets, Compressed Sheet Packing, Asbestos High Pressure Rod Packing, Low Pressure Spiral Gland Packing, Cloth Insertion Rubber Packing as well as other non-asbestos packings. Copies of the proposed specifications on these materials are being submitted by the American Engineering Standards Committee to various organizations interested, such as the Society of Automotive Engineers, National Association of Purchasing Agents, and others who would probably be interested in adopting the Federal Specifications for their own uses. "Everyone interested in the manufacture of the materials above mentioned should take an active interest in seeing that the specifications finally adopted by the Board are reasonable and yet insure the quality and performance of the material to be such that it will best serve the needs of the various departments of the U.S. Government."
