Livingston, Esq., Vice-President, Union Pacific Coal Company, Rock Springs, Wyo. Dear Mr. Livingston: I was so impressed by some of the things I saw in the operations of your collieries ·when I was at Rock Springs last Autumn that I should like our General Superintendent and one of our Colliery Managers to see them also. If you will be so good as to give those men permission to see the operations I will send them out to Rock Springs where they will arrive on May 23rd. I should particularly like them to see your operations which require close timbering where the roof is quite tender. We have just completed preliminary trials on a longwall 'continuous miner', which we have designed and built under an arrangement with the Joy Manufacturing Conpany. This machine will go underground very shortly. \'le hope to produce 500 tons per shift with the machine and to work it double-shifted. If this unit is as satisfactory- as the trials have indicated, it will revolutionize longwall work. Perhaps you would care to come to have a look at it, or $end someone to see it, late in the Summer when our crews will have been properly trained in its operations. Will you be good enough to let me know if Mr. W. S. McDonald, our General Superintendent, and Mr. T. M. Hay, I-tanager of our No. 25 Colliery, may visit your operations. With kind regards, Very M. H.

Dear Mr. Murray: I regret that I have not been able to acknowledge your letter of November 18th sooner because I happened to be away from Sydney. I appreciate very much the trouble you and your staff have taken to supply the information I requested. I have passed this information along to our Chief Electricial Engineer, who is making a study of this problem. In discussing this matter with Mr. E. L. Martheleur, our Chief Electrical Engineer, he informs me that he will be communicating directly with your Chief Electrician who will be able to give him such additional information as he may require. Thanking you again for your help in this matter, and please convey to Mrs. Murray and those of my other friends in the Union Pacific Coal Company the Compliments of the Season and my very best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

We have not encountered any difficulty with one motor taking more than its required load. Our largest hoists· are 550 H.P. motors or a total of 1100 H.P. per hoist. The two hoists having 1100 H.P. are Norberge hoists, also other larger hoists are Vulcan ,·;ith 500 H.P. each. Attached herewith letter from Mr. Toucher concerning these hoists.

Each motor has in its secondary circuit and independent secondary panel and resistor, but contr~lled simultaneously through the mas ter switch controller.

I may say that we were both very disappointed that we were unable to see you before we left Rock Springs. However, I sincerely hope that an opportunity will arise wherein you may be able to spend some time in our field, and I am sure that if the time does come when you can visit us you will find many things in our distric't of interest to a mining man. We enjoyed our visit to Rock Springs very much, and some of the things we saw gave us a great deal of food for thought, as a result of which we may be able to improve our own operations to some extent. I sincerely appreciate your kindness to us, and also your kind invitation for our return to Rock Springs.

Murray, General Manager, Union Pacific Coal Company, Rock Springs, Wyoming. Dear Mr. Murray: DurinG two visits to the collieries of the Union Pacific Coal Company at Rock Springs, you were kind enough to have your staff show us hoists of 800 and 1000 horsepower capacity, driven by AC motors arranged in parallel. I have discussed this arrangement with our Chief Electrical Engineer, tlr. E. L. Martheleur, and while he is intrigued with the idea he is still reluctant to adopt this principle in our collieries, where we have . single motors operating hoists up to 1800 horsepower, because of the difficulty of dividing the load equally between the two motors. Would you kindly let us know if the two motors which you use in parallel on your hoist'- are connected to a single resistance so as to have exactly the same amount of resistance in the rotor circuit? There is also the question of connecting the two motors together mechanically, so as to have the two rotor circuits in synchronization. While this is not very difficult to accomplish, nevertheless the two relative positions of the motors must be always the same. I remember discussing this arrangement of motors with you, during my last visit in company with Mr. Gordon, and at that time you had assured us that it was a very successful operation. I am wondering, however, if your electrical staff is satisfied that the load is evenly divided between �- 2 - the two motors. I, of course, assume that you have made the necessary tests to ascertain this facb. I realize that you are very busy and probably will not be in~ position to give us in detail the answers to the problem which is bothering us at this time. Therefore, perhaps you would be kind enough to have your electrical engineer give us as much information on this subject as p ossible, and we on our $ide will be very glad at any time to reciprocate with information on our installations which may be of interest to you.

Mr. Peternell was an excellent guide· and was able to tell us all we wanted to know. We deeply appreciate the manner in which he took us about the mines. At this time I should like you to know that the crews I saw working in your mines worked better than any crews I have seen on routine operations. I should like to compliment you too on the general housekeeping of both the mines themselves and the surface installations.

Hav.i ne seen publicity regarding your Suggestion System, it is suspected that it must have been very suc c essful when in operation. Though you mention in ~,our letter that the Suggestion System was temporc,rily set aside during the war, I am wondering whet hlJ r you would be kind enout;h to give us any inf ormation you mya have reearding its operation in the past. Among the questions suggest ed are the following:-- 1. Is it practicable for employees in a coal mine to make suggestions concerning their work? 2.

W. of A. safety commit te e at each district, as well as discussing the different reco mmendations at your safety meetings. _ ., �SIGM/i TAU EPSILON SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS AS OF SEPTEMBER 15, 1946 Committee No. 2 We, Committee No. 2, recommend there should be more caution around cars. We recommend that large chunks of coal on top of cars be taken care of or taken off before leaving loader point. We also think that more attention should be paid to foot wear, v. John Knoll George Blacker Arthur Munn J. Hearne Committee No. 3 Resolutions and recommendations of Committee No. 3. In order to prevent injuries caused by falls of rock or coal in timbered places, we recomr.iend·that the men be instructed by the supervisor in charge to always sound roof before knocking out any props. When loose roof is fQund supported by props which have to be moved either additional props or crossbars are to be set before knockini; or moving those props. While timbering or cro~sbarring extremely bad roof, men engaged in that type of work must be instructed by the supervisor in charge to always use safety props, Ernest Besso John Cukale Joe Kosovich Frank Subic Sam Canestrini Committee No. 4 ~e, Committee No. 4, recoml?lend that in handling and moving timber and rails, that the supervisory force continue to stress the need of the men keeping their minds on what they are doing at the mo~ent, keeping their fingers and toes in the clear, When the ha.ndles of wrenches are not long enough to get leverage to tighten the bolts or clamps, we would recommend that longer �handles be welded on to the wrench. 'fe would also have men who &re holding 1 jackpipes for the machine man to continue holding the pipe until it is tight. Clyde Rock James Law Joe Salvatico Andrew Spence Committee No. 5 We, Committee No. 5, considered the eye injuries. 't'Te feel that the injuries reported, could be avoided some by the worlr..man being a little more careful in handling material and by wearing his ~OGgles closer to his eyes except where men are sharpening drill bits. u'!," reccITUncnc that tJ-,ey use enclosed goggles. Ben Dona Carl Nelson Ben Caine Committee No. 6 'Ne 1 Committee No. 6, bOinb over electrical injuries find that quite a number is caused through carelessnesu of men in pilllinf IT~chine cable while holding same at splice and failure to disconnect light lines before replacing globes. We recommend that men disconnect light line, remove trolley pole cff wire and when pulling machine cable p,ull below splice or replace with new cable. A. M. Strannigan Chairman Committee No. 7 '.lfe, Committee No. 7, recomr.iend that all machine men while operating cutting machines should at all times have the bit clutch out while doing work around the machine especially when changing bits under a cut. here v,here a man was changing bits under the cut. 1~e have a report ''Thile he was changing hits another man turned on the controller catching the man's hand. This should be �stopped and only the machine runner turn on controller. Committee No. 8 Concerning case of tipple cleaner a~ Reliance, age 71, recommend that men of this age be kept away from moving machinery, or said machinery be shut off while it is being cleaned. Thomas Lucas w. H. Buchanan Joe Gornik Committee No, 9 ' 1.!e, Cuiiliilittee No. 9, recommend that at all safety meetings the matter of haste and carelessness be discussed tp eliminate injury to workers in getting on and off mantrips. Recommend better housekeeping be stressed and discussion of workers placing their feet in walking and getting ready for various work. Recommend that more attention be stress~d to trimming of roof, faces and ribs in all places to eliminate falling coal thereby adding to the necessary testing of places. R~commend that workers be cautioned in wearing oversize and clothes with holes in them, Albert Curle Primo Gatti John J. Balog Rudolph Battisti J. Reuter Committee No. 10 Hernias reported 10: Recommend that we have a more rigid physical examination of all new employes and workmen properly instructed in regard to lifting material. ?L..ntrip !.,Juries reported 2: Recommend that all employes be instructed to stay on mantrips and not jump off, until mantrip comes to a complete or full atop. Jtl.so that closer supervision be given to all mantripe �f' in regard to dai~y inspection~ of equipment and over crowding of cars. Acid Burns reported 4: Recommend that printed instructions be posted at lamp house in use and care of lamps used by employes. Recommend that lamps are properly serviced by lamp men. Falling material reported 3: Timber being knocked out by Duckbill. 1!Je recommend that all Duckbill Operators be instructed to observe more closely the surroundings in which the Duckbill is being operated in regards to close timber.

We recommend that large chunks of coal on top of cars be taken care of or taken off before leaving loader point. We also think that more attention should be paid to foot wear. John V. Knoll George Blacker hrthur Munn J. Hearne Committee No. 3 Resolutions and recommendations of Committee No. 3. In order to prevent injuries caused by falls of rock or coal in timbered places, we recommend that the men be instructed by the supervisor in charge to always sound roof before knocking out any props. When loose roof is feund supported by props which have to be moved either additional props or crossbars are to be set before knockinb or moving those props. While timbering or crossbarring extremely bad roof, men eneaged in that type of work must be instructed by the supervisor in charge to always use safety props. Ernest Besso John Cukale Joe Kosovich Frank SUbic Sam Canestrini Committee No. 4 ~ve, Committee No. 4, recommend that in handling and moving timber and rails, that the supervisory force continue to stress the need of the men keeping their minds on what they are doing at the moMent, keeping their fingers and toes in the clear, When the handles of wrenches are not long enough to get leverage to tighten the bolts or clamps, we_would recommend that longer �.:::::..---- handles be welded on to the wrench. '!e wouJd also 11 have men who c:.re holding jackpipes for the machine man to continue holding the pipe until it is tight. Clyde Rock James Law Joe Salvatico Andrew Spence Committee No. 5 We, Committee No. 5, considered the eye injuries. t'le feel that the injuries reported, could be avoided some by the wor~~an being a little more careful in handling material and by wearing his g~~gles closer to his eyes except where men are sharpening drill bit9. 1:,_r.--. reccmn1;;;nc t !:at they use enclosed goggles. Ben Dona Carl Nelson Ben Caine Committee No. 6 We, Committee No. 6, going over electrical injuries find that quite a number is caused through carelessness of men in p'tl.line: 1rachine C!'ible while holding same at splice and failure to disconnect light lines before replacing globes. We recol1ll:lend that men disconnect light line, remove trolley pole off wire and when pulling machine cable pull below splice or replace with new cable. A. M. Strannigan Chairman Committee No. 7 .,re, Committee No. 7, recommend that all machine men while operating 1 cutting machines should at all times have the bit clutch out while doing work around the machine esnecially when changing bits under a cut. here v,here a man was changing bits under the cut. We have a report l'Thile he was changing bits another man turned on the controller catching the man 1 s hand. This should be �stopped and only the machine runner turn on controller. Committee No. 8 Concerning case of tipple cleaner at Reliance, age 71, recommend that men of this age be kept away from moving machinery, or said machinery be shut off while it is being cleaned. Thomas Lucas 1N. H. Buchanan Joe Gornik Committee No. 9 T,' Je, Com,.dttee No. 9, recommend that at all safety meetings the matter of haste and carelessness be discussed to eliminate injury to workers in getting on and off mantrips. Recommend better housekeeping be stressed and discussion of workers placing their feet in walking and getting ready for various work. Recommend that more attention be stressed to trimming of roof, faces and ribs in all places to eliminate falling coal thereby adding to the necessary testing of places. R~commend that workers be cautioned in wearing oversize and clothes with holes in them. Albert Curle Primo Gatti John J. Balog Rudolph Battisti J. Reuter Committee No. 10 H&rnias reported 10: Recommend that we have a more rigid physical examination of all new employes and workmen properly instructed in regard to li.t'ting material . .M..ntrip I,;Juries reported 2: Recommend that all employes be instructed to stay on mantrips and not jump off; until mantrip comes to a complete or full stop. ~i~o that closer supervision be given to all mantrips �~ in regard to daily inspections of equipment and over crowding of cars. Acid Burns reported 4: Recommend that printed instructions be posted at lamp house in use and care of lamps used by employes. Recommend that lamps are properly serviced by lamp men. Falling material reported 3: Timber being knocked out by Duckbill. 'l.'J'e recommend that all Duckbill Operators be instructed to. observe more closely the surroundings in which the Duckbill is being operated in regards to close timber. Also the position of facemen in close vicinity of Duckbill while Duckbill is engaged in the operation of loading coal. Charles Grosso Wm. Wilkes V.

So the purpose of this letter is to ask you if I may bring him and Mr. Thomas and the Mine Superintendent, Mr. Barry, sometime about the middle or latter part of May of this year to see these properties and the points of interest in and around them. In all probability they will resume operations by then, or before—I hope. Thanking you, I am Yours very truly, SULLIVAN MACHINERY COMPANY John Ho Erarick JHE:PP cc Mro Io N.

C. Livingston Union Pac'ific Coal Company Rock Springs , Wyoming Dear Mr. Livingston: When I was head of the French Mining Mission in Washington, several times I had the pleasure of hearing from different French mining engineers how much they appreciated the welcome that you and your company extended to them. I feel a little bit embarrassed to come to you again to ask a favor, but it just happens that due to the pitching conditions of your seams, the Utah and i"lyoming deposits are the ones ~hich are of most interest to French visitors. So far I have not had the pleasure of visiting these districts personally; I hope to do so as soon as I possibly can. If you find that this succession of visitors gives you too much trouble, could you suggest the names of neighboring companies in which French engineers could spend some time studying the operation of .American mining machinery? A friend of mine , Mr. Jacques Ledoux, a .French mining engineer with the company of Pennaroya, is going to spend a couple of months in this country visiting mining companies and manufacturers. Very likely he will call on you around !'./larch 18th and I would very much appreciate it if you could extend to him your usual welcome or direct him to another company.

Rock Spr~ngs, Wyoming Dear Sir: On May 25, 1945 I wrote to you asking that permission be granted to the engineers of the French Coal Mining Mission to visit your properties, and you were kind enough to give us a favorable reply in your l.etter of May 29, 1945. Due to difficulties in transportation the arrival of these engineers was delayed longer than we had expected, and since their arrival they have found it impossible to leave Washington due to the urgent pressure of work in connection with the French coal mining program. During these months they have al,vays hoped to be able to find some spare time to visit various coal mines, and they waited until they could make definite plans before contacting you again. Their projects have been delayed week after week due to changes in our purchasing organization made necessary by the end of the war, and they were therefore obliged to postpone getting in touch with you. Under the present circwnstances it is still difficult to plan a program of visits at a definite time, but I would like to thank you again for your kind offer to be of assistance to us, and I wish you to know that these gentlemen and I are greatly interested in a visit to your mineso I hope that maybe in a few weeks or maybe only a few months we will be able to escape for a little while from our paper work for the more interesting phase of field visits, in which case we shall try to let you know our plans as much in advance as possible.

P0.rticular attention of all contractors is called to the fact that War De p2rtment approval of visits by foreign nationals to private plants indicates merely that the War and Navy Departments interpose no objection to the visit at the time and under the conditions specified. The company concerned r et ains full discretion as to whether or not the visit shall be permitted by them and this approval in no way implies that matters of private concern to the company should be disclosed or that the company should be put to expense or embarrassment. 2. Furthermore, such approval in no way implies a restriction on the disclosure of information concerning the manufacture of consumer goods, commercial equipment or other products unassociated with the war. War Department interest is concerned only with the maintenance of security regarding the production, plans, "know how", or development of articles produced under war contracts a.nd the authorization to permit visits for the purpose of discussing or inspecting the production of government materiel is granted only for the purpose stated subject to company approval . .3. In some instances the approval states "For final inspection of finished products only". This statement refers to contracts in execution for government agencies, and does not permit a tour of the portion of the plant engaged in government contracts nor inspection or discussion of government material in the process of manufacture or development. 4. Although the authorization may cover a period .of three months, if the government contract is completed prior to the end of that time, the approval is automatically cancelled. 5. tll visits are subject to the following restrictions, except as included in the authorized purpose: (a) Access is not permitted to sections of the plant which might afford the o~portunity of observing confidential features of U.S. Government work or material. (b) U.S. Government contracts are not discussed and information pertaining to such contracts is not disclosed.

Bayless, President Union Pacific Coal Company Rock Springs, Wyoming Dear Sirs A Mission of three or four French !Ill.ning engineers is on its ~ay to this country to study in detail the possibility of modernizing the French coal mines by utilizing American methods and mining machinery. As you are nell aware, there is now a terrific coal shortage in France due to the fact that our mines have been operated under German occupation without any repair or maintenance of the equipment. This coal short~ge has been responsible for the worst winter we have had in France during the war causing a doubled mortality rate among newly born infants. Moreover, the coal miners are exhausted after five years of forced labor, and it is only by well planned mechanization that our coal production vtill rise again. We realize that this result can best be obtained by visiting American coal mines of characteristics similar to those existing in France, and we would appreciate it very much if you could help us in carrying out such a project. Our experts are interested in visiting all types of coal seams with pitch from O to 20°, thickness from 4 to 8 feet, plenty of gas, bad roof. Dr. Smith, Editor of "Mechanization" has suggested your company as one of interest, and I am hereby inquiring if you would have any objection to our experts visiting your properties. In case of a favorable reply, they will contact you directly and arrange a program of visits. As a point of information I \11ish to advise you that I am a member of the A.I.M.M.E. and am glad to send you under separate cover a copy of my report "French Coal Mining Industry" nhich will furnish you with additional data on the condition of the French coal mines. Your kind consideration of this matter would be greatly appreciated.

They will leave today for Castle Gate, Utah, to inspect coal mines in that vicinity. The four men are part of a group of 12 Chinese engineers who are towing coal mining properties throughout the United States to learn the various phases of me­ chanical mining for adoption in their own country. The engineers represent coal companies and Chinese government mines which are producing bitu­ minous metallurgical coal in north China. They report a deposit of coal there having a 450-foot seam, and assert that the coal is being mined entirely by hand, with op­ erations being carried on both by subten-anean and open-pit mining processes. �Juno 22;.3 1946 The Co S«.-Card Irpn'i.’orks Co P. 0.

All of the above men are graduate mining engineers, varying in age from 32 to 37 years and have been sent to the United States by their government for one year's training under Pierce Management. They arrived in the United States during the month of September, 1945, and expect to return to China during September, 1946. All speak English quite fluently and indicate their choice of American food and drink as the hot-dog and Coca-Cola. Evidently they have not become acclimated to the extent of the American choice of Scotch and Soda and T-bone steak. Their time, to date, has been spent in visiting the bituminous and anthracite mines in West Virginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania. They v/ere quite enthusiastic in their praise of our mines, especially the matter of pillar extraction with duckbills and Joy loading machines, and very much impressed by the systematic timbering program which they state is the only example they have observed so far. Their activities during the week were entirely at Reliance and Stansbury districts, together with a visit to the Rock Springs Power Plant and the General Office. �- 2 - They have been furnished a copy of our Book of Safety Rules, Book of Standards and the History of The Union Pacific Coal Company.

Scranton 3, Pennsylvania April 2, 1946 Mr. Eugene McAuliffe Chairman, Board of Trustees The Union Pacific Coal Company 1416 Dodge Street Omaha 2, Nebraska Dear Mr. McAuliffe; As you will remember, Mr. Pierce in anticipation of his being in China about this time, wrote you the latter part of 1945 asking if you would be kind enough to take for a period of two weeks two Chinese engineers in whose training we have been cooperat­ ing with the Chinese Government. Since that time some changes in plans have occurred and we are wondering if you would cooperate in the following plans. We are trying to arrange a trip for eleven of these engineers through the mines in Colorado, Utah, Illinois and Wyoming and a visit to the plant of the Goodman Manufacturing Company in Chicago. This trip is being arranged because these boys have expressed an interest to see the type of mining in these various states before their return to China. You originally agreed to take two of these men for a period of two weeks, but under the present schedule for this trip we plan on sending out three groups - two of four and one of three - and we would not anticipate that any one of these groups would.be at your mines more than three or four days instead of the two-week period originally contemplated. The present schedule calls for the first group to arrive at your mines on May 13th, the second group on July 15th and the third group on August 19th. Naturally this trip is being planned in advance but subject to the present bituminous wage negotiation, which of course, might necessitate a change in this trip. We, of course, will keep in touch with this situation, and unless the labor dispute has been satisfactorily settled we will not send them on to you. We will later try to give you the definite time of arrival with the thought in mind that you can arrange accommodations for these men as suggested by Mr. Pierce in his letter. While this represents quite a change from Mr. Pierce's original'plan, we trust you will be able to go along on'the change and would appreciate your advice to this effect. /s/ F. L.

DEC 241 �PIERCE MANAGEMENT Scranton Electric Building Scranton, Pennsylvania December 14, 1945 Mr. Eugene McAuliffe The Union Pacific Coal Company Union Pacific Building Omaha, Nebraska Dear Mr. McAuliffe; As you know, Pierce Management has been engaged by the Chinese Government on the rehabilitation and expansion of the coal and mineral industries of China. As part of the work essential to our introducing American equipment into these mines, I have undertaken the training of a large group of Chinese mining officials who have been in various mines of the United States for the past three months. I am trying to give them a very comprehensive picture of different types of mining methods and equipment, and inasmuch as I must go to China shortly, I am now planning schedules for cer­ tain of these men between the months of May and September, 1946. I would appreciate very much if you would extend me the • courtesy of permitting two of these engineers to spend two weeks on your property sometime between May and September next year, we to give you ample notice of the arrival of these men. With kindest regards. Sincerely yours, /s/ James H. Pierce �NO. 3 �080-3 February 4, 1946 Mr. Manning Chen e/o Mr4 0. F. Sargonfre 1 Box 34^ Memphis^Tenneasee (co: Mr. H. C.

No Bayless President and Manager The Union Pacific Goal Company Omaha, Nebraska Dear Sir: It has been so nice of you to extend your invitation to my friend Mr. Linson Hsu to visit one of your mines when he was receiving his training in Wyoming Division. Thank you so much. Later on, I learned out that he, Mr. Hsu, had not been able to go and visit the mine. Sure he felt very sorry about it and he ever tried to make it even when he was already back to Omaha. I am sorry too that so far he has not been able to avail himself of this grand invitation. Our time of training was set for one year. It is almost up till now. It has been scheduled to leave for China around the middle of February, at the port of San Francisco, California. I came down to Little Rock, Arkansas, on January 21, and moved to here Memphis, Tennessee yesterday. Here the Arkansas arid Tennessee states are jointly building a bridge over the Mis­ sissippi river. It was just started. That's my mission to come to have some training on the job. By the time I left Omaha, my friend Mr. Hsu was awaiting an arrangement to New York City. So, I imagine, he would not be able to see you and your mine. Recalling the enjoyable visit last June, to your mine at Rock Springs, I certainly have treasured it so much and recog­ nized as one of the finest trips my Lord Christ has made for me in the past one year here. Well, if I can't see you and friends at your place be­ fore leaving this land for China, I will still remember you and all friends in prayer. Thank you and all friends with you for the kindness ever extended to me. !

This young man, a Chinese, is one of 69 honor students,who is a graduate bridge engineer and who, with six of his associates, has been assigned to the Union Pacific Railroad to study various angles of railroad construction and operation. Mr. Chen is under the direct supervision of Chief Engineer B. H. Prater, and as soon as his program is completed, will get out on the road for study purposes. He tells me that he worked in a Chinese shaft mine and is very curious to see one of our mines and our method of mining with machinery. This boy, with his associates, including a young woman, is the product of American Christian Missionaries, Mr. Chen having served for some time as a missionary among his people. Therefore I know you will be deeply interested in him and will see that he is taken care of in your absence. It may be some time before he gets to Rock Springs, his first assignment that of a bridge job at Cozad. You will be interested in knowing that "Chen" is a family name and the first name, "Manning", was chosen by himself. In order to conform to passport regulations, he signs "Chen, Manning", but I am sure he would like to be called by his first name as he is a very gracious and friendly boy, speaking school English very well.

Mgro, Rock S9ring s, Wyoming o / Dear Mro Pryde: Referring t o your letter o:f August 1st, suggesting August 17th at 10. 00 o'clock A. M. as the date for a conference at our office with reference to possible changes in the compensation law and 01.1r- subsequent exchange of telegrams with reference to the availability af August 16th for the conference: I note that the 16th would not be available for the reasons suggested and we will re-arrange our schedule here so that the conference can be held on the 17th. I have arranged to have Mr. Calverly here and will also arrange through him for a representative from the Midwest Refining Cctm.pany to attend. He has suggested that Mr. Osborne of Ca~per representiri;g . : the Standard in such matter, should be here and I have asked him to arrange that also. He also promised to give me a list of other persons mom he would suggest should attend. When I have received same, I will give the matter further consideration. Presumably you and Mr. Mc.A.uliffe have given consideratiOll to having a representative of the labor organizations here and concluled that it would not be wise. Judge Lacey lns suggested that we have al- ways been in agreement with the labor organizations, a situation which has been very helpful in getting compensation legislation through the Legislature. I suggest this so you and Mr. McAuliffe may consider whether it would be advisable to have Jimmy Morgan and Mr. Fox at the conference.

Pryde Vice President and General Manager Th e Uni on Pe.ci f i c Co al Corn a.ny Rock Sp r i ng s, Wyoming 1 l t ear Si r : I think there should be a conference between some of the larger em)loyers of' lab or in extra- hazardous employments, to vmrk out several proposed ch ange s in th e law, to be presented to the coming Legislature. Here i n Si7e e t r1ater County , an effort is being made to use the Compensation Law a s a poli t ical convey ance. It is unnecessary for me to go into detail as to nho is doing t hi s, and the inconsistent and unreasonable changes which are being proposed. Ho ~ever, the County Attorney has gone so far as to state to the Judg e of t h e dist r ict court that the hernia statute will be repealed by the next Legislatur e. Of course, such action by the Legislature would be in violation of moder n scientific thought upon the subject. Some of the things that I think should be considered are: A law limiting the number of witnesses which the County Attorney may subpoena at the expense of the employer. Non-resident employers of labor to give surety as to contributions to the f und. ·r he constitutionality of the service charge to non-resident employers should be considered. The eff ect of lower wages upon the awards as fixed by the schedule, and the inevitable diminution of the fund, under present schedules. • A modern schedule of loss of vision should be pro posed~ in lieu of the present schedule. The sta tuto ry fees for investigatio n s made by Commissioners u p on reference by the Judge to be fixed by law. I wrote a letter, a few days ago, to Judge Tidball, protest~ng the bringin3 bJ the County Attorney of many witness e s, in behalf of claimants who are iuduced to bring suits by one Dan ~allie. I stated to the Judge' I t I I �Sl'Alll>Al!ll FORM 2103 111-29-10,000 THE UNION PACIFIC COAL COMPANY IN REPLY PLEASE REFER TO OFFICE OF NO. t ha t almos t every t hi ng t hat t h ese witnesses would testify to v:ould have been admitted without any witnesses. But that is not the idea. The using of t he s e vi tnesses is a t the exp ense of employers, and is a gratuity. I think it would be well if you would consider this l.etter, and s e e i f ar range2nents can be made, sometime before it is too late, for such a meetin; , and t o h ave a p rogram for consideration which has been well thought out . At lea st t hose who attend this meeting should be those who have had a ctual experience in t h e op eration of the law, and who have given consideration to t h e administration of the law in other states. It vmuld seem to the writer that Rock Springs would be the most favorable pl ace to have the meeting. '.Cb'.C:H �t _"'J [\ 'i \ .\ i: ~. \.''
