Memo from K. S. Freeman to J. N. Walker reporting on the first meeting (August 8, 1973) of a Gypsum Association special committee on asbestos in joint treatment compounds. It covers committee recommendations on asbestos and dust caution labels for powder and ready-mix joint compounds, test data on mixing and sanding, and competitors' labels.
