W. G. Hazard to W. J. Stewart on Ira Brought's Request for a Kaylo Health Brochure (1956)

A one-page Owens-Illinois memo dated June 12, 1956, from W. G. Hazard to W. J. Stewart, with copies to E. C. Shuman and Dr. C. F. Shook. Ira Brought had called that morning to ask whether the company had ever prepared a brochure on the health aspects of Kaylo dust "similar to the one Ned Ames prepared for fiberglas some years ago." Hazard told him no; the Saranac animal experiments, written "in a highly technical manner," were "the only published material that has appeared." Brought still wanted a reprint, and Hazard sent one, noting the article "is not confidential."
