CITY ··-;,- ,:::-:·-;-.. ' • ; ' f ~ • ·~ " !. .... ~ \7 Dear Sir:-- .,.J• , - J ? •✓ . 1/ . -• .. .... ~ ~/ Someti1i1e I thinlc it might be VJell for y o •J to hav e a conversation Vli th Dr. Arbogast upon the pha. s e of bis f i nal reports which appear to me to be rather speculative. Sometime ago we received a final report from the doctor, in which he s aid that in his judgment, the workma.n "will be able to resume his duties in a.bout three wceks. 11 It is obvious we could not stipula te e.n award for three weeks ahead of the stipulation and 1:tf e declined to do it. We frequently get final reports from Dr .. Arboga.st in which he gives it as his opinion that the employee may resume 'Hork in one or two days. I am wondering if, frequently these one or tvm day s are not gratuitous. Please understand tl:1at I do not say this is true, but I do believe that, vihere every__ influence is to stretch out the time, especially where the number of <1ays of work per week, is small., that it might be vrnll the f'irst time you see Dr.Arbogast to remind him that the st~tute ±s, that compensation is to cease when the injured person :«can perform work at 'fu1. occupation.n an,y gain.- The thought I wish to convey is this, that in looking over these reports, the surface indication is, that two or three days are always given after the date of the final report; It seems that some of these dates would be coincident with the final reporto I am just suggesting what occure_?._ to me, and I thought in .a diplomatic way, without reference to this- letter, you might sometime call the doctor's attention to the fact, that it is quite desirable, if possible to have the final reports definite. I feel a hesitancy in authorizing the payment of State funds upon a final report that says that a workman may be able to go to work in three or four days, and then to give that workman three or four days extra con1pensution upon a mere supposition. We are constantly returning these final reports to the surgeons, requiring them to be made more definite and certain in this behalf. We have in mind a recent occurance. A workman is drardng compensation at the rate of $90.00 per month. Mrs•Emery noticed that he is walking around town, and asked the camp surgeon why a final surgical ~eport is not forthcoming. The surgeon replied that this would pr?~ably e e1one in two or three months, but Mrs• Emery said 11 I see him wal.1-C1ng �around on the streets" upon v, h ich the surgeon replied, 11 Yes, I have t;o1d him he could worlc at some lieht work, but he hasn't been able to get a J.ight job." A policy of this kind works very \'Jell in those sta tes HheI· e coropensa tion is b a sed upon the a ver&. ge wa ges a n d time of the en1ployment exhibited for the past t wo or three yea rs. rt does not v,cor1c wher e, as we d o i n Wyomi n g , p ay the highest awards 3rnov1n in any cornpensa tion l avJ, and t ha t rJi thou t r efe r e nce to the workman s probable earning ca pacity o I hav e tri ed to make t he Courts understand the lib er ality of our l aY, and tha t it needs no stretching to satisfy what they ca ll in othe r s t a t es n1ib eral construction."
