Reycraft's cover letter sent a draft letter to Dr. Selikoff to Griffis, with a copy to the other Board of Governors members, and asked for any negative comments by October 23. The enclosed draft, dated 10/19/64, is written for the Asbestos Textile Institute. It expresses the member companies' concern about newspaper coverage of Selikoff's mesothelioma report, including a New York Times article of October 7, 1964.
