Georgia-Pacific interdepartmental memo from E. F. Fatz to H. F. Fink about Mt. Sinai Hospital Medical School in New York, described as a group doing considerable lung disease research among asbestos workers. It reports that tests were run on a group of drywall joint finishers and a spot was found on one man's lung, with the cause undetermined. It says the drywall industry might be a next target for that research and that the information might interest the Gypsum Association Safety Committee.
