to the publication or five bull otir10 on standards in one volume, two •
copies to be furnished each c.o□pany subscribing on production basis.
Do r,e come under that head!

If not , we should purch sa a copy for use

in preparing our s andarda .
Give thought • also to tho call of Governors 011 Safety to be

made by President Coolidge in Jnnuary , ahorm in bulletin.
I think in so tar as safety legislati on at Cheyenne ie con•

Chairman, Mr .

the matter to the comm:ltteet Mr . Rua.sell,

chant and ::1. Bott.omley • uho uill meet in Cheyenne on

the 5th with nr. Horgan and two other Union man .

In substance I ~ould

prefer that whatever safety laws are enacted the comm.oreial operators •
prepare.
I will arrange to attend the 00\frpeneation

ting at Cheyenne

1•uary Cjtht when oil raen. coal op rators, mine workers and a few oui.lide indu.otries will be repre ented.

It will not be necessary tor you

_t in having the eommereial companies work out the

Iii uk that it become a law, they ,aill naturally feel an obligation to carry

We di d n ot get a c orrected c opy of the r eport

referred to by L!r . McCarty, in whi c h he says "Have also corrected

the statement of the foreman on the atta ched re pert . " .

Without a

I am muoh pl eased tha t an e ffort i s being made t o have

Realizing that this matter was gett i ng

away from them , I caused to be printed the enclcsea.

blank , the

PUr ·oae of which was to try to have the Mine superintendent's office

investigate this very matter.

However, I find, witho ut pres s ure

the blank has not accomplished the purpose whi ch I intelld e d.

wnat transpired at Cheyenne the other day not only did the
reP 0r

t of the state Treasurer show that hundreds of thousands of

dollars ho.Ve been fraudulantly extracted from the compensation fund,
but the reports show that there has been a la.xi ty comparable with

the burden of taxati on in the increase of temporary total disability

awards, which, unless choked off, will become a scandal, for the
operators will not longer be paying compensation but will be rewarding men for idleness.

expres s in your letter , includin '""' tha Virginian ' s Eidvico.

In addition

to what is stated in your letter , I fear that such a pra ctice would become general , and might lead to misunderstandi ng s, and · particularly. that
we mi ght be charged wi th an intention of violati ng the law.
St.¥:h

In my opinion

practice ought only t o be indulg e d in in exceptional cases, and t hat

in thes e ca ses the opera.ting dep artmsrrt should take the responsibility and

not the stor e deTJart
ment.
.

In other wordf;l, the arrangement should be such so

that t a e st ore department can cha r g e any losses wh ich it sustains by gi ving credi t i.n suc h c e.ses t o t h e operating depar tment.

Fr~n what I can learn about this caoe the
injured man is, and has been for some time
:past, in condition to resume work at a gainful occupation.
The only trouble he appears to have at present
is soreness and a slight drain in the center of
the old scar. This trouole is, no daubt, caused
by chafing of artificial limb.
Think that it would be uell if we were to have
Tomazin present himself to a dininterested
~urgeo~, at either Cheyenne or nawlins, for
examination as this is a case where it appears
as though the workman in taking advantag e of
the Industrial Insurance Fund.
Tomazin has drawn to date from the Insurance
Fund a total of $2,350.00: $ 1,200.00 for permanent partial d i sability in addition he has
also drawn $1,150.00, in monthly pay.ments, for
temporary total disability which two runounts
ill.alee up the above total.
There is a question enters here on which I am
not informed, Is the Industrial Insurance Fund
liable for :payment of monthly compensation, 'for
temporsry total diaabilityi during the period
required by the stump to become hardened and
accuBto~ed to the artificial limb,and is the
Fund liable for co~pensation for loss of time
or earning power through complications ariseing
from the use of an artificial limb? If not,we
should resist any further payments to Tomazin
unt11 he is examined as above.

�Harry w.ri.ght.

Injured at Hanna Uines.
january 28th 1924.

Dr.Finch is still of the opinion that this patient,
while he has been discharged from further treatment,
is :=suffering from a permanent total dieibility.
In his le tte r of April 7th 1925 Dr.Finch classifies
this injury at ab out ,0% p ermanent disability. On
April 22nd 1925 in writing further of this case Dr.,
Finch states that "He is suffering from a condition"
"that will be a permenent disability and will laeve"
"him impaired for the rest of his life".
Mr.Wright has collected,to da,te, from the Industrial
Insurance Fund $ 1,012.50 for a temporary total disability, and the probability is that these monthly
payments will cont inue, as in the Anderton case,
until such time as they reach a total equal to the
amount allowed for pennanent total disability, after
which a further claim may be filed for p ermanent
total disability.
After our exnerience with the .Alllderton case I think
it would be well for us to have Ur . Wright examined
by a disinterested surgeon as to his physical condition, and a further exrunineation by Dr.Strader to
deter...nine if there has been any improvement, or if
there is liable to be any improvernent, in the "double
vision" condition. After getting reports from the
different doctors we will then have something to
case our fig u·tt:s on :for settlement.

llaJI 8th 1924.

Barvandakie wa s injured May 8 th 1924 in the
f ollowing manner "Vf. aile picking coal a piece
:f l evr and struck him in the eye "

Emp loyers report cr:f' Accident fil ed L1ay 24th
1924: Voucher for $25 1.6 1 for teri1:pora:i;y t otal
disability was mai l e d, by the Cl e rk of Court ,
to Barvandakis on Oc t ober 16th 1924 .
Thi s worlonan, when reporting to Dr .Finch f or
treatment , did not advise the doct or of any
previous inj ury,and Dr.Finch was not ac qua inted with this fact until advised some time
later,by Dr.Strader,that Barvandakis had this
s~ue eye injured in 1918 while s erving in the
Gre ek Anny .
I t app ears as though Barvandakis intends t o
bas e his claim for l oss of vision, which clain1
h e filed in October 1924 with the c;erk of the
court of Carbon Coubty, on a letter from the
commis s ioner of Immigration , in repl y t o Barvandakis ' inquiry , regarding conditi on of the
workman 's eye s at the tL~e of his admis s i on to
this c ountry .
Dr . Finch c ould n ot s tate t h e characte~ of the
e xamination g i ven the eye s of immigr ants, but
he is of the opinion tha t they were examined only
for c ontag ious disease.
Have writ ten the Comruissioner o:f Immigration at
'!Jew York a s kin g furthe r information regarding this
examination.

1n his report to the court.regarding thiscase,

Dr. Strader SA.ya "It is extre1nenly doubtful if' the
parti cle of coal which the man got into the eye
'had anything to do with the loss of vision.In my
opinion the loss of vis i on is entirely due to oJ.d
changes in the vi t reous, and the vitreous are in
all probability due to the old war injury".
In view of the fact that Dr. Stra der does not think
that this loss of vision was due to injury rece i ved
in our mines, we should resist any further awards
~f any kind,to Barvandakis as it begins to look a;
hough ~the workman was imp osing on us.

as fmlly recovered.
Min e c1·erk advises that Campbell begun work on
April 6th 1925.

�John Pickup.
Inju~ed at Hanna Mines
Dec.,12th 1924.

Dr. Finch advises that X-ray examination
shows complete union of the broken bones
in the foot, but that natient still complains of pain in the foot and as far up
as the kBee. Patient ,did not want splint
removed.

-

This case should be sent to disinterested
surgeon, as soon as possible, for examination as workman is drawing $90.00 per
month, monthly compensation, from tile Industrial Insu:cance Fundfor temporary total
disability,
Workman has drawn, 't:l date, $360.00 from
the fund and seems well satisfied \'{i th the
present arrangement therefore the suggestion
for an early examineation by outside doctor.

�D.Hironga.

�Joseph Wal.ton,
Injured at Hanna Mines.
March 2nd 1925.

On accou...."'lt of the advanced age of Walton,
68 years, Dr. Finch i s of the opinion that
the chanc e s a.re very remote of the fractured
bones ever mak ing a comp lete and serviceable
union, and h e has l ittle doubt but that this
will be a case of p ermanent total disab i lity.

In regard to memo from General Solicitor Loomis
herewith attached, beg to suggest that under Paragraph 2,
Section 5, PaE;e 2, wherein l-'r . Loo mis suggest s " a somewhat different or more elaborate form cf record might be
necess ary", I believe that the record can be made all that
is desirable by indicating the file reference of the controverted claims on ?!r. Harringtons card record, of all
action taken in all Coal Company compensation claims.
Complete record would then be in the general file ~hich
the Supervisor of Co~pensation keeps, and the card record
would form the ready reference.

Mr• G. B, Pryde:
Confirming our conversation September 21st:
When men employed on a monthly basis, who are not members
of the United Mine VTorkers Union, receive injuries disqualifying them from

service and which automatically bring them under the terms of the Compensation Act, the usual report of the accident should be made and claim
made for compensation by the individual, you to determine the amount of
oompensation paid by the State, continuing to pay the individual so injured the dif'f'erence betvreen the amount of' compensation received or

payable and his previous monthly salary; this arrangement to continue
tor three months from date of injury, after which any case requiring
further determination should be submitted for consideration and disposition.

Please note our Voucher H-3937 in today's
mail, favor State of Washington, Corporation Information Bureau.
This is the first intimation we have ever had regarding the existence of such a tax, and have vouchered
promptly in order that the standing of this Corporation
may be preserved in Court, should occasion arise.
Kuch in the shape of a dream it appears to us
that Mr. Blaisdell's office handled this· matter at one
time, but we can find nothing in our records.

Mr. E. s. Brooks, Superintendent,
Washington Union Coal Co.,
T o n a., Washingtono
Dear Sir:
I am enclosing correspondence tha t has come to
us from the Uorporation Information Bureau ,of the State of
Washi~gton, calling upon the Washington Union Coal Company
to pay license fees for the years 1915, 1916 and 191?, at
$15. 00, together with penalties aggregating $5.00, and fees
$5.00.

Will you please ascertain whether payment of
these license fees were ever made,and if not,in order to
bring the Coal Company back to good standing,have the statement vouchered immediately.
I am advising the Bureau that we are looking

~nto the matter and if we find that they have not been paid
will transmit at once.

It is my understanding that we are

'not to look after the payment of fees of this nature or any
other f;rrmn this office so far as the Washington Union Coal
Company is concerned.

Very truly yours,
HWB i&lt;J3

Referring to Auditor's letter of May 27th,
1920, File O 2 G 5, relative to merchandise in transit
affecting Cash discounts.
The Washington Union Coal Company's Store
Purchases are nearly all made in Portland, Seattle or
Tacoma and in almost every instance the goods arrives
before the invoice. The only Eastern firms with whom
we have accounts are, A. E. Anderson &amp; Co., Chicago
and Beall Bros. Supply Co., Alton, Ill. All purchases
of A. E. Anderson &amp; Co., are 30 days net. Those made
of Beall Bros. Supply Co., 2% - 10 days.

We cannot recall a single instance where
this Company has lost any discounts by reason of goods
being delayed in transit. Of course there are sometimes shortages. In those cases the invoice is passed
for payment and claims filed with the transportation
company .

In case tre merchandis e, covered by such bills

Does not the r1ashington Union Coal Company have transactions

the car went to a customer in 'l;/yoming, our st2.teme nt showed
price of $2. 40 per ton. ~ This car wa s shipped to a customer
of ours at La r ami e, and draft nia.de out on b a sis of ~~2. 75 p er
ton , but when shi pment a rr ived our customer wired his refu s a l
of the car at 02 .75 per ton, explaining tha t he coul Q b uy Lump
coal di r ect f r om you for 02.50 per ton. Co nseque ntly i n order
to effect ui spo s ition it has been necessa ry for us to reduce

Mr. U. D. Brennan,
.Asst . Gen' 1. l\Igr. ,
Cheyenne, i'! yoming.
Dear Sir:
Mr. Marshall of the Marshall Brick Company
was in the office today to settle for his electric
light bill for the month of IJay; his attention wa s called
to the paying of 25¢ per thousand :for all brick burned
by him.

·,
He seems to be of the opinion that the ~50.00

rental for the ground leased him, covers all charges f or
~aterial used for brick.

If there was a letter written

us, advising us of this charge, please· furnish us with a
copy that we might convince him regarding that particular
part of his agreement.
I thought we had a letter from·you, but am
unable to find same in our files.
Yours truly,
(Signed)

D. G. Thomas,

Mine Superintendent.

Mr . D. G. Thomas,
lline Superintendent,
Rock Spr ings, 'l.7yoming .
Dear Sir :
Referring to yo11r letter of the 3rd rel ative
t o Liar~hail Brick Company:
1-;y understanding with Mr . 1:arshall on this
subject was that he pay for his brick at t he rate of
25 cents per thousand.

I have no recollection of

any ground rental \Tith him and thirik the lease was
brought up al ong these l ines.

You may so advise him.

Yours truly,
