Six pages of minutes of the Asbestos Textile Institute's annual general meeting, held September 6, 1957, at the Hotel Commodore in New York, with J. A. Bettes of Raybestos-Manhattan presiding. His President's Message warned of shrinking markets as plastic and glass insulation replaced asbestos textiles and urged the Canadian mines to lower, not raise, the price of spinning fiber. H. M. Jackson of Johns-Manville reported for the Air Hygiene Committee on a Turner and Newall report on dust sampling, and the Institute's legal counsel spoke on the legal protection a trade association gets from written agendas, counsel at policy meetings, and written minutes.
