Omaha - December 26, 1946

Mro Ho CD Livingston:
Your letter of December 23 , together with
copy of letter from Mro Pete r nell, Safety Engineer,
. suggests action along the line tha t I had in mind in my
letter of December 16, e.nd would suggest th0.t you h ave
Mro Peternell and Mro Tibbs develop in detail the kind
and co s t of equipment they would require for this program,
keeping in mind that these are changing timeso
A general discussion of this subject by the
entire staff will be desirable, and I would suggest that
you schedule such a discussion for the week of January 6,
which I expect to spend in Rock Springs.

We will continue to do 00.
Referring to lo.st, paragraph of your J:etter, suggesting that

ne advise some method of keeping employes informed of progress in
accident prevention.

We are giving this matter due consideration

and \?e attach, hereto, copy of report by Safet7 Engineer Peternell.si
dated December 20, 1946, t,his subject.
The first step in kecpine the employes informed of progress
will be the postine of a larae scale graph nt. each mine, graph approximately 24 11 x 36", showing in black the trend during the previous year
and in red the trend durins the curri::mt year, i7hich will he extended
by months by the Safety Depart ment.

:,'e will transmit copy of the graph

for your inspection at an early date.
VJe believe the visual it0ms mentioned in Mr. Peternell' s

report have merit.

\ie can obtai n motion pictures for our safety meet-

ings and Yle believe that photographs taken on the property, with scenes
staged for safety violation a nd pictures posted on bulletin boards,
would be helpful.
\'le shall be happy to have your reaction to Mr. R:lternell I s
report and the first stop of posting individual graphs at the mines.

Omaha - December 16, 1946

Mr. H. C. Livingston~
This wi ll acknowledge re9eipt of the statement
of injuries and man-hours worked per injury for November,
and for the per1.od January 1 to November 30, 1946,. compared
·With 19450

You should continue to send this information to me,
and I would suggest that you have this information duplicated
and posted on all bulletin boards at the mines, the bulletins
to be changed each month.
It will be necessary that we devise some method of
keeping employee informed of progress in accident prevention,
as we do not want any letup in safety.

In fact we should try

to improve our safety record as employes become more stable.
Suggest .you discuss this matter with your staff and on my
next visit to Rock Springs t1ould very much like to discuss
this and agree on a program.

Omaha - April 2, 1946

Mr. H. C. Livingston~
Your letter of March 31, reporting lost-time
injuries; date January l to March 31 shows 87,973 man-shifts

for 1946, and ll5~4S5 for 1945, same period.
It is absolutely necessary thet our Safety
and Operating staffs get on the job and stop the trend
of increase in injuries.

I am somewhat fearful that

Safety Engineer Peternell is not follouing up as he should
on men reported .as receiving hernias Md slight injuries.
You should also have it distinctly understood by the

supervisory ataff that injury reports must be made promptly
by.the foremen in charge of the work, and no injury report
will be made from hearsay, as was the case at Winton.

Omaha - February 12, 1946

Mr. H. C. Living ston:
The safety record for January, 1946, shows a
further decline in man-shifts worked per injury, and w•i th
one fatality, it indicatee that we e.re not off to any too

good a start for the year 1946.
Therefo re, I would suggest that you ask Mr .
Murray, Mr. Hughe s and Mr . PeteI•nell to a ttend loc al staff

meetings at all districts in an effort to work up some
enthusiasm in our safety p rogram.

You realize, of course,

that it is easy to lose ground, but requires definite
effort to regain lost ground .
