L. Berry Memo on the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association, with J-M Trade Organization Membership Forms (1981)

A handwritten J-M memo to file of August 14, 1981, from L. Berry, noting that the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association was "the only roofing industry trade organization to which J-M technically belongs," as a charter member since the 1920s or 1930s, followed by 23 typed forms naming J-M people who served on outside organizations. They include W. B. Reitze on the Asbestos Textile Institute's health committee (1973 to 1975), Dr. Paul Kotin on National Cancer Institute and National Academy of Sciences panels and a Brookings Institution committee, E. M. Fenner on the Air Pollution Control Association and the American National Standards Institute, and W. R. Goodwin as a trustee of the Committee for Economic Development.

What it shows

The forms may be the questionnaires behind J-M's survey of association memberships; see Johns-Manville Interim Report on Association Memberships of the Company and Its Personnel (1974).
