A three-page undated paper titled "Respirators," attached to the Asbestos Textile Institute committee minutes of December 5, 1957, and credited there to H. M. Jackson, Johns-Manville's industrial relations manager. It said respirators "should be regarded as the last line of defense" against asbestos, after the dust had been eliminated, isolated and minimized. It went through breathing resistance, filters, weight, fit, cleaning and rules for wearing them, and said employees "should be given sufficient knowledge of the nature of the exposure and potential hazard" to value the device.
