If given permission, I would like to know if a Saturday or Sunday would not be as good a day as any, to go through the mine.

Eddersham Graduate College Leheigh University Princeton, Weiv Jersey Dear Mr. Eddersham: This will advise receipt of your letter of Juno 10th making inquiry concerning a visit to The Union Pacific Coal Company’s property during the month of July. I am sorry to inform you that I think it is not advisable to visit the U. P. property during the month of July. For your information, due to dieselization of the Railroad our mining dis­ tricts at Rock Springs, Reliance, Stansbury, kinton and Hanna have all been closed and at the present time we are only operating the Superior District one day every other week or approximately two days a month, and our present program calls for possibly two or three days work during July. Then too the miners' vacation begins on June 28th and lasts through July Pth. Therefore, T do not think you would gain a great deal of information from visiting the property as the Superior raining district is on a very slight pitch, and all of the mines that were operating in the steeply pitching seams have been closed particularly at Hanna, Stansbury and Kinton. There are no mines operating in the Rock Springs Field on steeply pitching seams as all have been closed down. There is one mine operating in the Kemmerer Field under­ ground and a strip pit operating a thick seam of coal. It is rather unfortunate that I have to pass this informa­ tion on to you but nevertheless I deem it advisable that you cancel your trip into this field. Very truly yours, Original V, 0.

We took the men to our office and discussed the map describ­ ing the No. 1 Seam location in the vicinity of Superior D, 0, Clark Mine and a short visit was made to this location. The party, accompanied by Mr. Charles, flew to Rawlins and v?as met there by Mine Superintendent Burress, who took the men to visit the Nugget Coal Company strip operation, the strip operation of the Monolith-Portland-Midwest Company and an inspection of the potential strip area to the north and west of the Nugget Coal Company opera­ �- 2 We did not accompany the party on their Hanna trip for reason of over­ tion. loading the plane and lack of enthusiasm for flying. Our short discussion with the party left the following impressions5 1« The So Jo Groves and Sons Company have a considerable amount of dirt moving equipment which they feel can be assigned to coal stripping operation with a greater return or realisation than can be derived from competitive bidding on highway and other work. 2. The personnel of Walter Bledsoe and Company, who we under­ stand are both coal brokers and mine operators, are primarily interested in securing cheap coal to place in competition foi* marketing in the Dakotas and Twin Cities area,, 3. The party had visited the Sheridan area on Friday and were very much impressed by the comparative analysis of Superior, Hanna and Sheridan coals. 4. The representatives Of ’Walter Bledsoe and Company would much prefer to secure Hanna or Superior coal for marketing, however Hr. Head of the S. J. Groves and Sons Company left us with the impression that he preferred Sheridan coal and his reason is no doubt ease of stripping as compared with other locations. We furnished a plat of the area at Ho. 1 Seam, Superior, and did not advise that we had relinquished the lease on same. We also furnished them copy of our analysis of Superior and Hanna coals. No plats were furn­ ished of the Hanna potential strip location. No committments of any nature as to possibility of leasing or contract to strip or load coal for our purposes or others was made by this office. The inspection and discussion was very brief due to the fact that the men arrived here at 10 a.m., left for Rawlins at ls30 p.m. without any time out for lunch and returned to Rawlins from Hanna around 5 p.m. The hurried nature of the trip by the visitors would indicate to the undersigned that they are not particularly interested.

Suggest that you meet them and develop what they have in mind and give them as much information as necessary for them to have a general picture of the coal stripping fields. I would suggest that they be allowed to visit the Nugget strip, Monolith strip and Shirley Coal strip at Hanna which will give them a very good picture of coal stripping in all southern Wyoming.

In addition to myself, our group will include the following individuals: C. L. Waggoner, Supervisor, Raw Materials R. C. Talbott, Plant Engineer A. J. Stemberger, Jr., Mine Industrial Engineer As I stated in our telephone conversation, we are most interested in visiting those mines of your company which use shaker conveyors for production mining. Since we have a total of 33 shaker conveyors at our mine near Price, Utah, we would also appreciate the opportunity to compare our results with this type of equipment with that which you are experiencing in your mining operations. We are particularly interested in the effect that manpower is playing in the production rate over the past three to four years. Your interest in providing us an opportunity to visit your property is greatly appreciated. As stated previously, we will call at your office in Rock Springs sometime Wednesday morning, March 21st.

There is a man from India by the name of B. P.

My plan' would be, of course, to have one of our men, probably P. N. Beauchamp, meet Mr. Jain at Rock Springs and take him to the mine in time to make the man trip in the morning. I think probably the best mine for him to see would be Winton.

October 9i 1945 Mro Io No Bayless The Union Pacific Coal Co. Rook Springs, Wyoming Dear Mr. Bayless: I received your telegram of October 6th and was fortunate in getting a hotel reservation for Mr. Rosser in spite of the fact that the city is filled with conventions and the World Series ball game. Mr. Rosser came into the office October 8th and the first thing he did was ask that we send, \vb.en writing you ;, his sincere thanks for your hospitality and trouble in showing him about the mines. He intends to send his own letter of thanks on return to India. We greatly appreciate the courtesy as N~. Rosser is connected with the coal mines of Andrew Yule & Co. of India and until the outbreak of war, had nothing but Goodman coal cutting machines in their mines, and it is my belief that they had probably over 60 of these in use. They are accordingly, a very valuable and loyal cliant. Mr. Rosser expressed to me that the conditions he saw at Rock Springs were very similar to those in India and he has outlined a mining system for using Duckbills which will be set up for their mines.
