A one-paragraph letter from Union Carbide's Dr. John J. Welsh to W. C. Thurber says he and Dr. Ken Lane found the AIA's public information pamphlet on asbestos and water factual with no exaggeration. Behind it are the AIA's May 28, 1975 memorandum circulating the draft for comment and the 12-page draft pamphlet 'Asbestos in Water: A hazard to health?' with references.
