What it shows

USG says asbestosis has been known "since the mid-1930's" and cites Beuthin at a 1955 conference for lung cancer (Exhibit 6, No. 53). Its warning answer gives wording and dates: SprayDon bags marked "Contains Asbestos" from about June 1966, cautions in 1968–69, joint compound in 1972 and textures in 1973 (No. 34, Exhibit 4). Compare its answers in the Oklahoma cases about two years later.
