Two pages of minutes of the Asbestos Textile Institute's Air Hygiene and Manufacturing Committee meeting of September 5, 1957, signed by H. M. Jackson of Johns-Manville as acting chairman. The members discussed a Turner and Newall report comparing dust sampling instruments, and agreed that since the midget impinger was the instrument of federal and state health agencies, they should measure their plants "by the methods prescribed by the U. S. Public Health Service, upon which our health standards are based." They heard that the Industrial Hygiene Foundation's study for the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association was "in the final stages," and that a Raybestos-Manhattan plant's dust counts were well under the 5 million particle limit.
