On S.aturday last Richard V. Mattl- soin, M. D., received the congratula¬ tions of his many friends on the oc- cr.sion of his 83d (birthday, which he spent very quietly at his home, No.l Lindenwold Ten-ace.
Dr, Miittison's birthplace was Sole- bury township, Bucks, County, Penn- Bylv.ania.

The lairao nrvinuifacturlng C(>n;COi:*n necessitated, in its early days, the formation of water and eloctric oom- panles, both ot wliich were sponsored by the Mattison interests, but ^^lthin l-ecent yoiira tho electric comp.any has been merged with the Phila, luloctric Co. While the water ccmijiany has been exixi,rvded to cxu-e for ithe roiiulre- monts of the growin,g comlmunity, which it serves, it still romains under local  control.

Mr. Husted's remarks were informa¬ tive to the large body of hearers who fail to properly comprehend the pur¬ pose of federal aid, and his address waa most Interesting.
'Mr. Foulke then presented Mr. Blagden, who reviewed his connection with the Keasbey and Mattison Co. covering the past three years. In June 1931, he was commissioned by the creditor banks to make .a study of tho plant and Us prospect of work¬ ing out of its dlfflculties complicated by the general stressed business con¬ ditions. After a survey he reported that prospects Indicated the ability of the concern to work out. A six months' trial was given, and the plan was later extended.
General mining conditions In the asbestos flotds of Russia, South Africa and Canada, and the business methods of the Russian owners led to a con¬ ference in London in an attempt to reach a trade undorst.anding, but this availed nothing lasting, o.xcopt that It marked the beginning of relations that finally resulted in the purchase by Turner, Newall, Inc., of London, the world's largest producers of as¬ bestos products, of the Keasbey and Mattison Co. and allied interests in this  country.
iMr, Blagden paid tribute to Ett'.. Mattison and his son in this connec¬ tion, s.aying that the negotiations could not havo boon succes.sful h.ad it not been for their cooperation. The result  ia that  the  Turner,  Newall  Co,
