This appears to have been the practice of the Store for some time; and in making such adjustment to conform to the June 30th inventory Form 23 for that month absorbs the under-estimates applicable to the five previous months, or a total of some $900. 00. In other words the merchandise sold. irl the last six months amounting to $39620.72 is estimated to have cost only five-sixths of that sum, but an inventory develops that the estimate for the period was about $900.00 too small, which is taken care of by adjusting in June accounts.

The statement should show, regarding each note, date, by whom issued, for what issue d , time, rate of interest, and amount; also the date up to which the interest has been paid. It is noted from your· report covering examinat ion of Treasury· Department's accounts, l~ovember 10_, 1914, regarding ~63,000 worth of notes given by iJaba sh Lumber & Shingle Co. covering def erred . . payments ·on purchase price of timber on land belonging to the Washington Union Coal Co., that if any of the notes or accrued interest thereon are not paid for a pe·riod of 90 days after due, the Coal Co. may declare the agreement forfeited and cancelled. It is presumed the contr~ct protects the Coal Co. by a provision restricting the cutting and removal of timber until certain payments have been made. stated differently, is it pos s ible for the Lumber Co. to remove all the timber covered by the contract from the land before payment therefor has been made?

Rock Springs. Wyoming, in service 1 year, was examined at my office November 11 0 19310 He gave me the following h~story: He had an operation for appendicitis two years a go in Italy. His present complaint is continuous pain in back except when quieto He alleges that this pain is due to an accident that he received on May 41> 1931, while working as timberman in Rock Springs Coal Mine Noo8. He was struck ·on the shoulder by a rock 1·rom the roof. He was taken to The Wyoming General Hospital where he was treated by Dr. Arbograst for one month. Examination of chest and spine by x-ray shO'Ned the following: "Chest: Some enlargement of peri bronchial glands. Some infiltration toward the bases more markea right side with some extending toward the apices. Apices clear. No. ToBo "Entire Spine: Cervical spine: negativeo Dorsal spine lies diagonally from above downward to the left with slight curvature ·to , the right in the upper dorsal, and to the left in the middle dorsal and to the right again in the lower dorsalo Lumbar spine shows a marked curvature to the left with deformity of all the bodies. No x-ray evidence of tuberculous destruction of the vertebral bodies. Slight lipping of the lower dorsal arul all the lumbar vert ebrao" His urinalysis was as follows: "Clear, amber, Sp.Gv. l'.ll9, acid, no albumen, no sugar. Microscopical negative."

There was no evidence of Tuberculosis of lungs or spine. In my opinion, it is possible tha t an injury to his back has probably aggravated an old arthritis of his spine which predated his injury. • .

'l'his was done while I was a way in Denver, but it seems to make no ciii'ference to . public oi'i'icials what the expenses are as long as they are chargeable to private enterprise. The dii'ficulty is not i 'undarnentally that pubJ.ic of ficers do _not care. I run not charging that. But, the public oi'i'icer is generally nothing more than a man· in the- street, anu he a.oes not recognize or know t11e awful struggle that the business man has to ma.Ke in order to meet his payroll, and to .keep the wheels of industry turning. The man in the street, who is out oi" a job, sympathizes with himself, -but put him to v10rk tomorrow, he would not speed up his own motions, or his own activity a hair's breadth because in so doing, he could help his employer.

Will you please give me a full report on this case. �Ul.TI:TED MINE WOIUCERS OF AMERICA Local Union No. 2616 Superior, Wyoming, May 14th, 1931. Mr. Eugene McAuliffe, President,Union Pacific Coal Co., Omaha. Dear Mr. McAuliffe: I am writing to you for advicm on a disputed compensation claim of one of our members. Brother Louis Tamboni was injured, ruptured, dropping a railroad car on or under :B mine tipple, September 5th, 1930. :By advice of the doctor, after securing a truss, he continued to work until Febr. 22nd, 1931, when it became necessary for him to go through an operation. He lost two months work through the operation. \'ihen the employees report of the accident went in, which was when he went to the hospital, he °\'7aS told the five months limitation had expired, and therefore, void. As Secretary of the local I fill out the majority of claims for the members, but would not think of sending in a report of injury where no time is being lost. I suspect this is my fault not reporting or sending in the yellow sheet 9 when the accident happened. However, the man did not know and the doctor was not sure whether an operation would be necessary or not. Tamboni•s condition t1as known to the outside foreman, Mr. Ward, and to · ·t he Mine Superintendent, Mr. G. A. :Broun, from the time it happened until he came be.ck from the hospital. Please answer at your earliest conv:enience, With kind personal regards and best 'l'lishes. Respectfully yours, (Sgd) CHAS.

Rock Springs. Wyoming, in service 1 year. was examined at my office November 11, 1931. He gave me the following history: He had an operation for appendicitis two years ago in Italy. His present complaint is continuous pain in back except when quiet. He alleges tha-t this pain is due to an accident . that he received on May 4 9 1931, while working as timberman in Rock Springs Coal Mine Noo8o He was struck ·on the shoulder by a rock from the roof. He was taken to The Wyoming General Hospital where he was treated by Dr. Arbograst for one month. Examination of chest and spine by x-ray showed the following: "Chest: Some enlargement of peri bronchial glands~ Some infiltration toward the bases more marked right side with some extending toward the apices. Apices clear. No. T.B. "Entire Spine: Cervical spinG negative. Dorsal spine lies diagonally from above downward to the left with slight curvature ·to , the right in the upper dorsal, and to the left in the middle dorsal and to the right again in the lower dorsal. Lumbar spine shows a marked curvature to the left with deformity of all the bodies. No x-ray evidence of tuberculous destruction of the vertebral bodies. Slight lipping of the lower dorsal and all the lumbar vertebra." His urinalysis was as follows: "Clear, amber, Sp. Gv. 1·) 19, aoid, no albumen, no sugar. Microscopical negative." , Examination of his blood was as follows: - ___ _, --.....;._ �"Reds 4,560 00() Whites 6,90() Hemoglobin 90% Polymorphonuclear neutrophilic 62% " eosinophilic 1% " basophilic 0% Mononuclears Large 4% Lymphocytes 33% 9 Conclusions: Mr. Angelo Grelli is suffering from a Rotatory Lateral Curvature of the spine together with an Arthritis of the Lower Dorsal and all the Lumbar Vertebraeo There was no evidence of Tuberculosis of lungs or spine. In my opinion, it is possible that an injury to his back has probably aggravated an old arthritis of his spine which predated his injury. ~JohnR.

Harrington Rock Springs, Wyoming Dear Sir: In reference to the voucher of $750.00 authorized to be paid to John Petrovich as a gratuity: Mr. McAuli ffe understands the circumstances under which this voucher is autho r ized. It seems to me the situation is a delicate one and t hat a general release might or might not be deemed advisable. We are to stipulate $750.00 by way of compensation is to be awarded, and we believe that that award is all that the workman is entitled to under the law, yet it is proposed to give him $750.00 more, and not to continue him in our employ. A situation of this sort to my mind should be carefully considered lest at some future time our own act in the premises may be construed as recognizing a condition bordering upon permanent total disability. Of course I disclaim any such thought. Still, it seems to r.ie that it would be wise to have Mr. McAuliffe consider the situation and to decide the language to be employed in draVIing the voucher, and whether or not some form of contract in the shape of a "general release" might be deemed advisable . • TST:li �Form 2191 / UNION PACIFIC SYSTEM TELEGRAM Time Filed _ _ _ _ _ M I ~ J' // (Zz;.,___~ l OR SI K o~aha Aug 26 ,. l83Z GBP Rcck2.pl'i~s B-lOO s~tiafaotory settle on basis fifty per cent for leg t hru com~ens~ t ion fund xer.r.ainin.., fifty peroent gre.tuity b oth pr efer ably on wont hly payw.ent basiia . if necessary 1uake full oe.sh settlei:1ent M- 88 El, CA 1044 ~:;. n,Eii5aooM �Form2191 c.s.
