PDF Copies of Safety News PDF Copies of CGW Safety News are now available. This CD contains a complete set of Safety News (January 1955, Volume 1, Number 1, through June 30, 1968, Volume 14, Final Issue). Evolving from a two page ditto copy in January 1955, the CGW's employee newsletter became an eight page multi-color newsletter by April 1956, a format retained until the final issue. The Safety News includes excellent photos, historical information, and customer profiles as well as employee features, political commentary, and safety musings.
