Dear :hlr. Pryde :
l\.ir. Clark is very enthusiastic about his trip to Rock

Springs. I have just written a note to Mr. !,IcAuliffe telling him how
much Mr. Clark enjoyed every minute of his trip. It surely was kind
of you to meet him and to give him personal attention.
Mr. Clark was impressed, not only rJith the plant and
underground methods, but with the splendid spirit of the comr.un ities.

I told him that you had given your entire life to the Union Pacific
Coal company, und that your own contribution played a large part in
the development of the organization and the successful results.

Mr. I. N. Bayless,
~neral Manager,
The Union Pacific Coal Company ,
Rock Springs, Wyoming.

Dear lwrr. Bayless:
Thank you for your good favor of October 7. I appreciate
your suggestions with regard to the mining of slabs on pillars under·
draw slate. I shall suggest that Mr. Clark talk with you about this
when he is in Rock Springs.

Mr. Clark will probably be able to visit Rock Springs
the latter part of the month or early in November.
For your own information, Mr. J. T. Cleirk is Assistant
Production Manager and has charge of several of our largest mines, one
conveyor mine and Oile Joy mine. Mr. Clark was placed in charge of mechanization for Pittsburgh Coal Company in 1927, and continued in that
capa.ci ty for some time. Later we gave him charge of a division. He has
been with the Company imny years and participated in the earliest work
in the development of the Joy machine, before the Joy Manufacturing
Company was even thought of.

Mr. Clark bas recently been President of the Pittsburgh
Coal Mining Institute, and it occurs to me that if you desire, he could
discuss in a practical way, some of the features of the new Pennsylvania
mining law. Needless to say he is one of our right hand men, and his
experience, judgnent, and leadership mean a great deal to the Pittsburgh
Coal Comiany.
Cordially yours,

LEY-k
