Memo from C. M. Howard, Jr. to plant and product managers reporting on United States Gypsum's research toward an asbestos-free joint compound. It describes a test on a production batch of topping compound, a planned field test in the Chicago area, and a report that National Gypsum was releasing an asbestos-free joint compound. It asks recipients to verify that report, obtain samples, and not discuss the project or use the words "asbestos free" outside the distribution list.
