Chicago, Aug. ll-In a recent letter to stockholdeis, B. G. Dahlberg, president of The Celotex Corporation, announced a complete li,ne of Celotex Triple Sealed Asphalt Shingles, Siding and Roll Roofing to be manufactured by The Celotex Corporation in seven plants strategically located throughout the United States.

Mr. Dahlberg states: "We entered the roofing business only after assurance from our expert engineering staff that the products would be equal in every way to the standards of perfection and quality for which the Celotex name is known.

"I have placed under the direction of Dr. Elbert C. Lathrop, vice-president, the chemical and engineering manufacturing development and control of Celotex roofing. Dr. Lathrop is a member of many scientific societies and has been honored with the Ed Longthreth Medal of the Franklin Institute and the Doctor of Science by his Alma Mater, De Pauw University. His early research work was in the U. S. Department of Agriculture. He was for sometime a manager in the Chemical Department of E. I. DuPont de Nemours & Company. During the very early days of The Celotex Corporation, Dr. Lathrop guided the chemical and research activities of the company, first as a consulting chemist and later as director of research.

"'We are calling our new products 'Celotex Triple Sealed Shingles, Siding and Roofing'. The words 'Triple Sealed' are introduced to help in the merchandising of the product, drawing the attention of the trade and the consumer to the three important processes which Celotex uses in the combining of the asphalt and the felt. These processes add years of life to the roofing.

"These new products will increase our ability to serve our dealer trade with high quality, standard Celotex items merchandised under the Celotex policy which strives to permit the retailer a satisfactory profit."
