He declared, however, that a

The new Haskell Laboratory is
single-story, air-conditioned
building of $4,000 square feet,
situated near Newark, Del, about

original Haskell Laboratory was
established in 1885 at the Expert

DUPONT products and manufacture
ing processes to eliminate as far
as possible every potential health
hazard to employees and custom
ers. It's activities have expanded to
include broad studies in toxicology,

and physiology.
Today the laboratory's scientists
are searching for basic knowledge
of the causes and effects of ia
tigue, factors that make clothing
comfortable, and methods for the
early determination of abnormal
heart conditions, as well as in
vestigating the toxicity of chemi-
