I think I told you the many letters an d messag es that I sent to General At torney Loomis. I had this transcription made especially for the benefit of 1:r o Bayless, a,nd I ask you to turn it over to him when you have read Dro '7anner' s testimonyo On second thought, I think it would be well for y ou also to get a good picture of how easy it is to get one Doctor in ten or fifteen t6give testimony, which will s upport almost any outrageous claimo If Dr. •:!anner ha d examined this -.;.rorkruan con s tantly fr om the ti me that he went to the Denver s pecialists, t h e Lion C~)al Company would have lost the case.

MR. T..ALIAFERm: I o bj ect to his basing his opinion upon rep o r t s of other sp ecialists t hat have ex amined him. This is not a hypothetical question. THE COURT: I think I wil l let the answer stand. Does this ~e st-traumatic neurosis aisable this man from p erf ormin g work at a. t,ainful occupation? As lo ni a s it e xis t s, yes. A. Q, . I v:il L ask y ou to state v1hether or not, in your OJ;)inion, th e post-traumatic neurosis condition that you found to be p r es ent in connection with this case, or this particular v:ork1nan , Vfas il Levkulich, is permanent or merely temporary. I am unable to answer that definitely, but, to quote again from the authorities on similar cases, I would sey that many ti:nes in such cases as this, when any kind of a settlement has been made, either for the patient or against him, the neurosis will sometimes clear up when the patient's mind has been satisfied that the case has been settled. Doctor, are you a member of the Sweetwater County lun a cy co mmis s ion? Yes, sir . • �5 .A. Q. • A. What -vo uld you say a s to the mentality o f th i s wor kman?

From your e xamination of this man, Doc t or, do y ou lcnov defi nitely , or even approximately, when t hi s _post-t raumati c neuro si s wa s d eveloped or when it be c ame p re sen t in t he man t such an extent that he could not pe r f orm work a t a gain ful occupat ion?

Fairl y close, through asking about his welfare from his o ther aoctors an d his n ife and one or t wo qf his children the. t I have s een. I 1:!ill ask you to state, to ascertain and to realize that this trauma tic ·neurosis condition exists -- can that be found upon one examination of a v:o:rkman or does that require & continuous study of the case? There are certain cases of traumatic neurosis which are demon strated by actual physical findings, such as x-ray pictures, and there are some that we are not able to demonstrate ana yet v,e know they exist. Q, . P. . In w.rLich class would this one be'?

Dear h!Ir. ~Aulif fe: Mr. Pryde has come to Cheyenne to-day and we have gone over the bills \'lhich 1Ir. Taliaferro has prepared with reference to the compensation law. Copy of my letter to Mr. Lazear which is enclosed herewith ~ill in- dicate the action we have taken. In addition t hereto \'le have furnished copies of Mr .. Taliaferro' s letter to me explaining the bills and copies of the bills themselves to Ur. Llullen and Mr. O'Leary. lt seems i;o 111e that Mr. 'l'aliaferro has fully and carefully covered the instructions which you gave him, and I have no suggestions to make except to suggest the possibility that the amendment to Section 124-120 R. S. 1931, as amended by Chapter 129 Session La\'1s of Uyomine, 19 33, occurring in the last paragraph of sub-section {a) thereof, may not be entirely clear. I have not, however, at ~empted to make any change in this e1:1ended provision, thinking that it will be better to take this up in connection with other possible amendments to be discussed with the Senate Committee to which the bills are referred. I V1ill advise you when the matter is set for hearing before the Senate Committee. Very truly yours, JUL-T cc - Mr. T. S. Taliaferro, Jr. �COPY / / Cheyenne, Wyoming, Jan. 16, 1935 . .Jr. Edward To Lazear, Building. Dear Mr. Lazear: I hand you t1erewith the three bills prepared by Mr. Taliaferro with reference to the Workmen's Compensation Law; the catastrophe fund and the law with reference - to motions for new trial. t also enclose copy of Mr. Taliaferro' s letter to me in explanation of these bills. With particular reference to the bill amending the law vi.th reference to new trials, the purpose of this amendment is to place a limitation upon the time within which motions for new trial upon the ground of neuly discovered evidence can be filed. As the law now exists, at least as interpreted by Judge Tidball, there is no such limitation and this has an important bearing, as will be apparent to you, of cases under the compensation law. Ii' there is no sue h limitation an injured \'Jorkman may years after the occurrence of the injury file a motion for new trial in a proceeding for an a~ard upon the ground of newly discovered evidence and open the v1hole case . I have spoken to Senator Pearson about these bills and he understands that you ~ill introduce them. I suggest that you speak to him, telling him you have the bills in your possession, and be certain that he is in the chair when they are introduced so that he will refer them to the proper committee. He advised ~e that he ~ould refer the bills to the judiciary committee. 'When the bills have been referred to that committee, of which you are a member, the coal operators and others would like to have a date for hearing before the coI:lffii.ttee set far enough in advance so that ample notice can be given to all interested and the matter can be carefully considered by the committee. Will you kindly advise me of the action you have taken in this connection. Very truly yours, JUL-T c~ - Mro T. So Taliaferro, Jr. Mr. Eugene McAuliffe. �Jc.:.1u;;.r~,r 14 t h , 19 5 t:, . .Toh1 U.

Brooks:· I was very gl ad to hear from you regarding your opinion of t he Wyoming Workmen's Compensation Law. On Sunday I had a conference which was attended by a number of representa tives of labor 9 the St ate Mine Inspector 9 and Mr. William Sammon, who has charge of the admini stration of this law. The more we discussed the mat t e·r the more doubtful I became as to the amendments and changes that appeared to be necessary. I am not an expert on wor1onen' s compensation. It is a very complicated matt er a...~d after listening to those who seemed to know so much mor e about it than I it was difficult for me to arrive at any p os i t i ve conclusion. I will say, however , that the law did not appear to be so bad as some have made out, but there were three changes which appeared to be necessary: first, the law should be amended to include practically all workmen within the State; second, ~he amount paid for temporary to t al disability seems to be inadequate; and third, there appears to be no reason why the State should contribute to the fund. Outside of these changes we appear to be getti:ng along pretty well . Very truly yours, , ... ~ I). C°~ �I �NH.

I have been waiting to get thi s year •a exper i enoe, as I have no doubt this is t he one you would desi re t he most. Even the reports of l ast year are hard t o get, and am having the • Olympia office send you some di rect , hoping you may f ind information i n t hem that will be beneficial i n your work there. Several co~i es of the Mining code, together wi t h amendments of the l egisl ature of 1919 are being sent under separate cover , as per your r equ eato As to the personal feature in dealing with administ :rati ve problems, I am inclined t o t he:.be:l:ief that most states a.re top-heavy with oommi esions., resulting in a great deal of wa.ete of the t axpayers ' money, merely paying poli tibal debts in a large number of cas e s to men who may be good politioians but l ack admini strati ve and eseoutive ability, not to speak of intens e i nterest i n the work assigned the• • Ae to my opinion regardi ng t he personnel suggested by you r law, were men to f all into the hands of a just judge, ,-... they would indeed be fortunat e, but an act of this kind should be as f ar remo ved f r om legal and fi nanc i al interests as it is possible fo r t hem to get, and plaoed in th e hands of upright, unbiased admini strato!'a whose sole objeot would be to administer the law e~ui t ably and considerately to all parties concerned. Different stat es have had different exper iences, and I am loath to criticise without having eonorete fact s foT guidance, but I do think our own l aw could be handled at muoh l ess expense than it is now. You appreciate that the admini st ration expens e s are paid for by general taxation, an appropr i a t i on made by the legislature for thi s pu t"i::io ae . .And yet I am i nf ormed by Mr . Andersen that under the Montene sy stem, wh ich i s eleotiYe as to whether they come �1• i't • E.

It looks too one- sided to have the whole-hearted support of all elementa of sooietyo This is merely my own humble ori-'Gioism for yourself personally, and not as expert advice for public uaeo Misa ryashburnD the Association and myself appreciate your greetings ., and eJtt end tbe same to yourself and Mxsa Brooks.

NOW that the workman's compensation fund bas becoma self-supporting, 1 do not believe it is right for tmm to ask tbat this money be given back to them. However, I do think that the amo1mt contributed could be decreased over a period of tbree or four ye~s so that at tha end of this time 9 tha State wou.ld be relieved of tb& contribution. I believe that State officials and particular~ the employees are endeavoring to receive benefits from t:ba large tn:nd that has accumulated and have entirely ignclred the employer who has created this fund, in thai~ desire to distribute a portion of it. If tha f'aDd has beooma top llaavy and it is the belief that it is now self-supporting 9 I think that t he rate paid by tha employer should be red'QOed possibly to one and a quarte.r percent or ona parcento The COD:!P8nsation to the employee incx-aases an~ tlm State gradual~ t;4 relieved of its contributiO~o • I think wa should not lose sight of thl faot tllat their are thrae parties interested in this i'mld9 the e:q>loyer, th& employee and t ha state.

Mr. E. ) l I ! Dear Sir:The following ecli t oxtal appeare d in the riyomi ng State Tribune issue of October 6th. il_~he newspa pers of Uyomi ng have been convinced that the rtorltmen 's Compensa tion act need s r evising. J~very industry is :placed on the extra ha za rdous li s t. The follon ing :from the Wyoming State Journa l a t Lander throws some light on the situation.., The i'lyomi ng ·Jor kme n rs Com-pe n s a ti~n act needs amending BI·bou.t as badly as a ny of t he laws on t h e st a tute books. All industri•es that come un der its provisions -cay the same flat rata regard,lesa of the hazard of e mploymen+, . For instance, print shops pay· tJ,..e same a s c )a l mines r.hen as a mat t er of f act, since the passage of this lav; n ') printer in the enti r e state bas been s.e:tinualy injured, except one and he r.as a homesteader on the stde andL hie t eam r an av;•a;1 and nearly kill ed him while he was out v~orking on his home~tead. Some of the newspapers of Wyoming have r-a id!. as much as ,~3,000 into this f und ri i thout any of their emp•lo,yes' ever having had occasion to call for relief. The tax· ought . rightly to :fall upon the more hazardous forms of employment. 11 ~hough} perhaps you might hav:e o"ve:r-looked this and wa.nted to call it to your attention.

He furnishes his own teams and equipment and feeds his own horses. All v,e pay him for hauling coal is 75¢ per to.n . His earnings for the year 1925 were ~~2069.81 which includes what extra work we give him for other hauling. He has to furnish two teams and equipment for Six months out of the twelve.

Accident Compensation for Harbor Workers Urgently Awaits Action by Congress By JOHN B. ANDREWS HE introduction in Congress-by the chairmen of the judiciary committees-of a federal workmen's compensation bill for the relief of the group of workers most urgently in need of such protection, formally marks the opening of another chapter in one of the most amazing developments in American labor legislation. A third of a million "harbor workers"-engaged in the extremely hazardous tasks of loading, unloading and repairing vessels at the dock-are placed in a position that from any point of view is indefensible. Exposed to risks far greater than most factory employees are pennitted to assume, these essential wage-earners suffer work injuries for which the individual states cannot provide accident c-ompensation. The longshoreman if inju,r ed-while on shor~ has the protection of state compensation la-ws. But let him walk up the gangplank a11d step aboard a ship with bis load and he is denied that protection. If injured aboard a vessel his sole recourse-a damage suit-is u.nder maritime restrictions that make it unworthy the name of "remedy." The compensation principle has been almost universally adopted for work accidents elsewhere. Why are these great groups of men in extra~hazardous empioytnents-longsh.oremen and local ship repainnen-given a less favorable opportunity when they suffer injury? When the states in 1911 first enacted workmen's cortipensation laws, they included longshoremen and repairmen at the d,ock~ as a matter of course. These workers were so protected until the ?~Preme Court in 1917 held by a five-to-four decision that when inJured on board a ship, the accident was "maritime" and therefore T �outside of state jurisdiction.1 Twice Congress attempted t these objections a_nd remedy t~e desperate condition of th; t:e~ shoremen by specifically reservmg to them the protection of g • h. state compensation laws. T he.se e_fft orJ s, d. esp1te t eh1r characterization as "statesmanlik~' by the ~monty ustices, were eld to be beyond the authority of Congress m that such power delegated to the sta would interfere with the proper harmony and uniformity of :~: maritime law.2 It is important to note that longshoremen alone are not the only harbor workers affected. A carpenter, an upholsterer, a painter a machinist, a hotter maker-in short, a_n! one of the repairme~ representing no less than twenty-two different crafts involvedwhen his work takes him even for a moment on board a vessel cannot in case of accident receive compensation under the laws of his own state. In holding that all such "maritime" workers throughout th,e country must be treated with absolute uniformity, the court has finally suggested the solution. The remedy lies in the adoption by Congress of a law extending federal protection to harbor workers.l1 Meanwhile, America. has step by step, in state after state, discarded as unfit the outgrown and disc.redited system of employers' liability suits for damages. Congress, also, has adopted the modem principle of workmen's compensation for all civilian employees of the government. Experience has shown the superior advantages of worlanen's compensation to injured workers, to their employers, and to the whole community. There can be but one satisfactory remedy for local harbor worl;(ers-a federal accident compensation law. But these men, longshoremen and ship repairmen, are employed not only in our seapo.rts and along the lake fronts but are scattered throughout the country along river landings-in fact, wherever their work is to be done upon vessels afloat. With benefits at least as liberal as those of the compensation law in New York, where many of the : So~thern Pacific Co. v. Jensen, 244 U. S. 205. . Kniclcerbocker Ice Co. v. Stewart 253 U. S. 149 • State of Washington "'· Da?'son & Co., 264 U. S. 219. ' ' State ~f ~ashington v. Dawson & Co., 264 U. S. 219. • e the . ')Vtthout doubt Congress bas power to alter, amen.d o~ revi.s and !llaritime law ~Y statutes of g~neral application embodying its will enJUdgment. This power, we think, would permit enactmeD,t of a fing !!-r!!,1 employers' liability law or gerteral provisions for compeJ!Sa tnJured employees." �rs of. both related classes reside, a federal comnu . . . • d • . . ssion, with its ..:es authonze to exercise similar functions by tat . dep11i.• . . s e appo1ntcould insure prompt and efficient administration men,t . h . . . The time is more t an npe for this comprehensiv .~ fi na • . 1 . e any • of a vexatious natlona problem. For years h d ds of1 00 tl :50I11 • , un re •.1. sands of our most essential workers at the docks ha b iuou " • • . ve een shuttled ~bout- out agam,_ m agam"-by closely divided opinions of the highest court. Patiently_ they have exhausted every legal approach to the local _co_mpens_atio~ remedy'. ~oth they and their employers are now left m a situation that 1s mdefensible and unbearable. The officers of the longshoremen's union, with the same careful consideration that won high praise from distinguished judges for their earlier "statesmanlike" efforts, are again utilizing every facility at their command to reach a remedy that will be liberal to injured workers, fair to employers, and just and stable under the constitutio.n of the United States. Other national affiliated railway and repair workers' organizations have promptly offered their endorse• ment and support. The American Federation of Labor, at its recent convention, gave to the project its unanimous vote. It is known that recently ~mployers in the shipping worldimpressed it is said by injustices and wastefulness of present conditions- have gone so far as to have their attorneys work on the draft of a federal compensation measure. Meanwhile, influential . labor groups with their advisors, ia cooperation with the American Association for Labor Legislation and several public officials, were already perfecting a hill for introduction in Congress. Having worked consistently year after year for adequate accident compensation, the Assodation is actively participating in this promising new movement, and will continue its efforts until a satisfactory federal measure is in successful operation-the most urgent next step toward the completion of compensation protection. . The pending measure, which has been approved by compensation officials throughout the country, and endorsed by the workers for whom this protection is primarily intended, was . introduced in Congress by the chairmen of the judiciary committees-Senator Cummins and Representative Graham. This bill ( s. 3170 and H. R. 9498) embodies the best feature~ of existing compensation acts. The scale of benefits is wisely based w•orke ~Gut t,: OUrt!:.; Ptiol b l'Orkei·/l :ate, Ci• 1p!oyc;i' mod::e :soit: age: ,:: ,ploy(,; ,e n:;:: in C,:'. outb :ral ,; o1 t;:1 �on the schedule in New York-the state having the 0 . c,reatest of these workmen.

Mod em prov1s1011 1s made for cooperation i rehabilitating d_isabled wor~en, and s~ec!al emphasis is given : 1 stimulating accident prevention. The b11l 1s a carefully considered and adequate measure. Its early enactment should be urged upon Congress. 1 "THE doss of longshoremen needs the pl"otaction of compe111ation as much if not more than any other clil!l::i of workmen, Their occupa. tion, so eS$ential to the prosperity of the tr.:ide of the United StateJ,, is extr-a hazardous, both on account of its noture and on account of the pressure undar which it must often be parformed. It is unjust to these men and to their families tl1at the burden of loss resulting from thousa.ncu of accidents a.nnually should be left by the law qo. theiJ'I shoulders. The resulting discontent and diosotisfaction is easy to understand.

This is a very busines s-like re-port. �Rock Springs, Wyoming March 28th, 192 7 . ' !Jr• GeO • B. Pryde : Since talking with you the other day regarding our experience ~ith the Nestor White Compensation Case, I have been wondering if any of the compensation cases which t1e heve been reporting "Closed", in Report of Compensation Cases ' Forni 11, are in fact closed, or are these cases reported as closed merely continued cases as in the Nestor \','hite Case. Enclosed a re copies of 1;10rding of joint stipulations which are being used in the various districts in settlement of claims for c~mpensation for the account oi The Union Pacific Coal Company. Please note that part of stipulation 't'Thich we use in Sweetwater County uith reference to Final Settlement. This form was dictated by Mr, Taliaferro for the very purpose of avo i ding such an occurrence as the Whit.a case. I am not sure that this stipulation YJill answer the purpose for which it is intended or not, but think Mr . Taliaferro has •s uccessfully resisted re-opening of a number of cases which had been settled by Jchis form for some of the other operators whom he represents. This form was not drawn with the idea of depriving any of our workmen of their rights, but \".'as intended to definitely close cases where the Surgeon had reported that workmen have fully recovered from the effects of the injury, and the . . 1,-.'heneve 1, 1• t a"'pears, from the surre is no los s of tissue or function. ~ geon's .~1·nal t there is a disability of development 1 report of personal injury tha , • ht t O additional compensation rmanent partial disability, the worlcman s rig is rt'nl disability may be saved by stating that a further claim for permanent pn i of pe it may appear at the time of final exdegree of such disability as atlins.tion by As soon as we receive this report ~rom exama Board or Surgeons. l!iade for the $ C !

If such a t hing is possible, we should adopt some standard form of word 4 ing of stipule.tion that would, \"1ithout question, definitely close these cases so that when cases are reported to our General Solicitor as being closed we could feel that \·,e were ccrrect in so reporting them, and not find later that our report r.as misleading and that cases are continued instead of being closed.

By~~-- �\N ROAD AND EQUIPM.. ----- Important EFfEGl'IVE APRIL 1st, 1927, In addition to the regular monthly premiums required by Section 4331 to be l)ald into the Industrial Accident Fund, every employer coming within the purview of the Workmen's Compensation Act wlll be required to make a monthly payment to be known as a " SERVICE A.ND POLIOING OHARGE." The amount of balance in the Industrial Accident Fund to the employer's credit will not relieve him of his liability to make this payment; provided, however that any employer whose account is overdrawn and who ls paying a :rate of 4 % will not be required to make this additional payment. The Service and Policing Charge will be computed on the monthly premium paid by the employer, or on the premium which the employer would have been required to pay had he not been exempt. The amount or the charge shall be determined according to the following schedule: Where the Monthly Premium Service and Policing Charge Payment isfor the month Less than $10.00 ------------------------------------$ 2.00 10.01 to 20.00 ·Incl. ____________________ 3.00 30.00 " _________ ___ ________ 5.00 20.01 to 40.00 " -------------------- 7.50 30.01 to 40.01 to 50.00 " ____________________ 10.00 50.01 to 60.00 " ______________ •----- 15.00 60.01 to 70.00 " -· ------------------ 20.00 70.01 to 80.00 " ----------- --------- 25.00 90.00 " __ ------------------ 30.00 80.01 to 90.01 to 100.00 '' -------------------- 35.00 100.01 to 250.00 " - - ------------------ 50.00 250,01 to 500,00 II ------ --------- 75,00 500.01 to 750.00 " ------------------- 100.00 ---------------- 125.00 750.01 to 1000.00 '' 1000.01 to 2500.00 " -------------------- 150.00 2500.01 to 5000.00 " -------------------- 175.00 Over 5000.00 __: ___________ ~------~---------- 200.00 In the event You have any Sub-Contractors, please fill in the following: ~aliE OF SUB-CONTRACTOR 1 2 POST OFFICE ADDRESS �\N ROAD AND EOUIPM.. _ I ,p ' \\ ' ::.ay ~th, l '-)2 'j.

Florida increasingly need s a ccident compensation, wh ich fifte en years' experience in A merica h as demonstrated to be b eneficial alike to employers, employees, and the w h ole community. Employers as well as safety expe rts and public officials through o ut the country have given e loquen t testimony t~ the fact tha t workmen's compensation laws, in a ddition to providing reasonable and certain care for inj ure d workers and their d ependents, have pro~ed a most e ffective s timulus to Accident Prevention.

T h ey have no accid en t compensa tion law, not even a n emJoyers' liability statute, a nd there is ~ot so much as a sim p le provision for accident repo rting, to say nothing of the most elem e ntary regulations for accident preventio n. Employees e ngaged in b uilding construction a nd woo d w orking p lants, painters, electric ians, drivers and elevator op erators, a re among those workers in extrn-hazard o us occupa tions in the District of Columbia w ho are left with practically no protection wh en in• jured in the course of empl oymen t. Employers as well as safety experts and public o fficials throug ho ut the country have g iven elo quent testimony to the fact tha t workmen's compensa• tion laws, in a ddit ion to pro viding reasonable a nd certain care for injured workers and their dependents, hav e proved a most effective stimulus to Accident Prevention. The Tragedy of Work Accidents What a w ork accident means to the wage-earner's family and to the conununity without compensation protection has b een · vividly set forth by Warren H. Pillsbury who served as a niernber of the California Industrial A ccident Conunission. Describing the tra gedy of un• cornpensated disability to a worker, he wrote : "When obliged to leave work, the income ~f hitnaelf and his family is ended. His sav• lllgs will seldom last for more than a week or two of idleness. He then becomes a charge Upon relatives, friends and public charity. .

When an industrial accident occurs, the employer may have to pay - in addition to the expense of a trial - a big sum of money for d am ages ; the injured employee who sues his employer gets prac tically nothin g ; even when he wins, he mus t divide w h a t h e gets w ith his lawyer. Unsuited to Modern Conditions It w a s d emonstrated by investigating commissions in over twen ty s ta tes tha L the doctrine of employers' lia bil?ty s uits for damages - "Don't Be Tricked !" Missouri Employers Warned the Public ., ~ -k'~ 7 ""ff~ ...-. • l •, ,..._-,.,., :,,,, ' ,I rules o f th e o ld comm o n law - is unsuited to modern conditions of employment; that industry is now so complex and highly organized ~~- - which at least soft en e d somewha t the harsh .- ' ~' =:_if!..::_~~-~- : = < ~ -- employers and wageMISSOURI earners, through their state organizations, actively supported the workmen's compensation law which was recently ratified by popular vote. I~ the campaign, they widely distributed the above cartoon warning the voters not to be tricked by a "shell •• put f orward g ame ,, count er propos1bon by a certain class of "damage suit" lawyers. In its campaign literature the Missouri employers' association declared that the workmen's compensation law "will boost Missouri" and that it "will encourage the building here of new factories which are now being located in states having workmen's compensation laws." Thanks to general support of the plan Missouri is no longer a black spot on the compensation map. Will Congre$8 now do as well for the District of Columbia? that the causes of a ccidents have become obscure and difficult to identify. As a res ult, reports show that in a substantial number of cases no rec overy whatever is possible and in a still larger propo rtion, the damages awarded are negligible. Occasionally, we h ear of large awa,rds being made after a case has dragged through the courts for years during which time the family has been left destitute. But even in a successful suit, court costs and attorney's fees sometimes ranging as high as 5 0 per cent of the sum granted consume a sub· stantial part of the money awarded. Finally, a law suit stirs up bard feeling be• tween the worker and his employer. Harmful to the Community Under the present procedure in the DiStiict of Columbia perhaps five~sixths of the work· men seriously injured at work receive no coill· pensation. Forty-three states bav:e already adopted workmen's compensation laws because tbeY have come to recognize that the system of suit• for damages is inherently unfitted to 111odern industrial conditions, grossly unfair to tbe worker, vexatious and sometimes very costlY to the employer, and harmful to the colllmw:uty. �How Accident Compensation Can Lighten the Burden AMILIES that are plunged into destitution as a result of a work accident that kills or disables the breadwinner must be assisted. A responsibility falls upon the State, whether or not the accident is due to the hazard of the job or to the negligence of employer or employee. If the State has no compensatio n law a heavy burden of relie f is th rown u pon public and private charity, and the community shares this burd en. But the distribution of the burden is not just, and such reliance on charity is u ncertain and degrading. F om. rine al ri- II ,Ii \ , I l' Workmen's Compensation Stimulates Accident Prevention The modern principle is that the Thi, chart 1bowa graphically the reduction of induatrial burden· of a ccident relief should be accidents in one large e1tabluhment followinr the enactment of borne by the industry. Just as employthe New York workmen'• compen1ation law. ers in fixing the selling price of a product consider the cost of replacing machinery, so should the cost of relieving inafter ten years' operation of the state workjured workers be considered as a p art of the men's compensation act, that this law has reexpense of production and made an element sulted in a marked decrease in distress and of the price of the manufactured a rticle. This poverty due to work accidents. "Accidents are now compensated for with a certainty," is the principle underlying workmen's compensation. says the A. 1. C. P. report. "Hospital and medical care are provided insuring a maximum Workmen's compensation lightens the burof possibility of early recovery and return to den of work accidents by distributing it justly industry, and a considerable group of families and reasonably throughout the whole comare removed from the necessity of applying for munity, and by providing the greatest continurelief to any organization." ous incentive to accident prevention.

Years bills to provide accident compensation for wage-earners in Private FOR seven employments in the District of Columbia and to remedy what the Washington News calls an "intolerable state of affairs," have been urged upon Congress, b ut final action has been delayed. The American Association for Labor Legislation has recently made a survey of work accidents in the District, supplementing its similar study carried on in 1923-24. It shows that, while Congress delays, tragedies occur in the homes of injured workers. These findings have been laid before Congress. Of sixty-one accident cases just examined in which the compensation is known, fifty. two received absolutely nothing from their employers as compensation fol' their injuries. Only three men received something-after strong trade union 'pressw·e had been applied-from liability insurance companies. In twenty-one of these cases suits were brought for damages. Thirteen of these-necessarily under the rules of the common law since there is not even a liability statute for the District-were unsuccessful and three had not yet been settled. Three verdicts had been secured, only one of which bore any reasonable 1-elation to the losses sustained. What frequently happens when some sort of a "settlement" is made is illustrated by the following case: The widow of a man, killed in a work accident, was induced by a lawyer to let him represent her. He kept postponing the case. Finally, during the Chrisbnas holidays, he went to the widow with a check for $1,500. Her son was out of a job, her married daugb· ter could not help, her Y<>Unger daughter had had to leave school and go to work. She accepted the settlement, of which the lawyer took $500. Other widows fared even worse, like the one who, with eight small children too young to work, had to accept charity when her husband was killed by the collapse of a saffold. Such a condition is indeed "intolerable," Congress alone can provide the needed remedy.

Business men deplore and denounce increases m taxes; but the expenditures of state and local govern~ents continue to grow. Many fortns of ex~enditure by the Federal Government continue to increase, and the total burden of taxes tends to become heavier. Who is resp?nsible? Ask almost any business man, and he will blame the politicians. We shall make more pr?gress in improving both govern~e.nt and bu~mess when we put the responsibility "Y~ere 1t belo~gs. Practically every increase m ta,xes and m government interference with business is due more to our business men than to our politicians. Business men are the most influential class ·in the country. They never had so much influence in any other country as they have here, and never so much influence here as they have now. Most politicians do not disregard what business men want. They may disregard what business men say they want, but they seldom disregard what they know' the business men actually do want. And the main reason why we have so much government in business is that the politicians give business men what they actually want. Rodney A. Elward, a Kansas farmer, in an article in Natio·n's Business for July, commented upon the way "business men shudder at the word socialist," and said: "Paternalistic schemes of government are agitated, not at farmers' meetings, but in business men's organizations. I have heard more socialism preached at meetings of commercial bodies than in socialistic gatherings." Mr. Elward and· I have spent our lives in different .fields, but we have come to the same conclusion. • Probably no statements in Herbert Hoover's speech accepting nomination for the ~residency were more generally endorsed by busmess men than these: "It is the duty of the Government. to avoid regulation as long as equal o_ppo~turuty_ to all citizens is not invaded and public ngh_ts v1ol~ted. The Government should not engage m busmess • competition with its citizens." 1U I ,31 �Anc.l yet there are few bus· no t_ now effectively promotess men who are action of one kind o r anotl • mg: go_vernmental p rinciples. ler 10 V10latton of these Rega rdless of the general • • a man professcs to adhere tphrmc1ples to which . , e correct a to t.wo q11cstio 11s will afford an i £ ll'bl nswers ,, hether he realh· is opposed to exn a ) e test of 11,c:ntal acth itil's: cesSive go\'ern'l'c:sL of Socialism \Viii .he ianu· a: expenditure by the GO\'ernth1. ta_x! a) Lr's money in his own commum y or territory \\'hich he would oppose "f • were_ proposed_ t0 make it in some other c~~~ 111un1ly or territor y? \Vi l_l h e ia\'Or a form of government interferl'n ce 111. oth_er people's business that he would oppose 10 his own business ? H these quc-stio11s must be answered in the affirma tive, he may believe he is opposed to undue governmental activities and excessive goyernmental expenditures, while he is effectively promoting them. Now, anybody who will thoughtfully survey • what is going on throughout the country must agree that many business men are constantly answering "yes" to these questions. It has been constantly asserted that the Federal Government has built larger and more expensive post office buildings than private companies would have built to handle the same amount of business, and that the Federal Govern· ment has wasted large amounts in "impr~ving" watenvays which never could be made navigable for a row boat. But did anybody ever hear of a business man opposing the expenditure by the Federal Gove_rnment of $200,000 upon a building or anything else in bis own community when $100,000 woRuld have been sufficient, or even too much? e· gardless of the merits of the Boul_der. Dam co:~ troversy, for example, is it not significant th. though there is much dpposition to it from business men in other parts of the country, ~ere is no perceptible opposition from the. buSineri~ men of 'Los Angeles and the surrounding ter tory? The expenditures on highwavs J within trecent have years have been enormous. To what exten. d' "' manufacturers of automobiles and road builht~~ equipment and materials sought to prev_en\ t expenditures from being made excessive· 141 "' '1\\ 0 1 To \1hat extent_ have local business men interested t emselves m . these expenditures excepting to pull for th e ~~nstruction of highways irt their own communities and territories? How many business men can say they have nev~r favored the application to other people's b~smess of any government policy which they <ltd not want applied to their own? What often happens is illustrated by tbe condu:t of t~e agent of a large insurance company m an important western state. He was r~cently divi_ding his time between opposing at 111s state capital the establishment of a state fund for workmen's compensation insurance and advocating the adoption of municipal ow~ership of the local street railway system in his home city. He thought he was opposed to socialism, and he could easily recognize it when it was proposed to apply 'it to his own business, but he did not so quickly recognize and react against it when it was proposed to apply it to the business of somebody else. There is only a handful of theoretical socialists in this country. Extremely few of our business men are theoretical socialists. But that is no reason why we should comfort ourselves with the belief that socialistic policies will make no progress, especially if we have only to look around us to see that they are making progress. Our danger is not from the theoretical socialist, but from the practical socialist. • The theoretical socialist favors public ownership and management of all the means of production, distribution and exchange of wealth. He is not dangerous because he cannot get enough people to agree with him. He ta~es in too f!1Uch territory. Nobody wants any of his own terntory taken in. Some Socialists Are Dangerous A practical socialist is a man who will favor almost any form of governme!'tal act~on, however socialistic, which he beheves will . benefit him. Now the woods are full of practical socialists; and they are dangerous becaus~ there are so ma.ny of them, and because, u_nltke the theoretical . socialists, they get something doni:. You cannot get many people to favo~ government regulation or ownership of all busmess, but you can always get a great many to favor almost any kind of government interference ~vith almost any one k_ind of bu~in_ess. Hence while the general cloctrme of soc1ahsm m~kes al~o~t no progress in this country, practical soc1ahsm grows 151 �~~ac~ ~ec~~se so many business men constant( Jo in 111 111c1tmg the g overnment to action · · · Y t o t I11s • or • t hat Innd • of bus iness . i11 which in1rn1ca1 the d not happen to b e engaged.

State workmen's compensation insurance was establis hed in West Virginia in 1913. A high authority says it owes its creation principally to the coal mine operators. Now, can you beat that? Are the coal mine operators of West Virginia :-ocialists ? Not as regards their own business. No doubt they would unanimously oppose g-overnment ownership of the coal mines, which has had many adYocates, as "contrary to the genius of American institutions and to every ~ound principle of economics." But how about socialis m in the insurance business? Wellt hey are n ot in the insurance business. E. E. 'Watson, an actuary, after an investigalion, reported abQ_ut a year a~o that the ~est Virginia workmen's compensat10n fund was impaired" to the e~ent of almost $5,000,000, a condition said by insurance experts to be the result of the c.:harging by the state of a rate much lower than has been shown by actuarial figures to ~c sound. The result is, in e~ect, that the publ~c is p aying part of the premmms for_ w?r_kmen s compensation insurance in West V1rgm1a,_ and t hat taxes in the state are thereby made higher than they otherwise would be. Fine examples of the inconsistency of ~any bus iness men who profess to be op~osed to government in business" are afforded m the field of transportation.

O \\'lllg' l o " Inland \Vaterways Corporation" is merely a s tage name for the GoYernment of the United S_tat.es. The. barge service on the Mississippi nver system is a plain case of government ownership and operation in competition with the railroads. The operation by the Government of this barge line was begun eight years ago ostensibly as _an e:-..1)eriment to determine whether such a sen•1ce could be successfully conducted. Probably it would have been conceded at that time by all its advocates that eight years would be suffici~nt for the test. Recently, however, Congress, with the approval of business men, especiallr t~ose. of the Mississippi Valley, trebled the cap1tahzation of the Government's corporation in ord:r that it might correspondingly enlarge its service. Because the Government is furnishing and ~tending the service, municipaliti~s along tb e Mississippi and its tributaries, influenced_ { local business men' are building waterh termina Govern-s at public expense. In order to help t e • the ment's barge line compete successfully witr h railways, Congress has given a branch °Cotro: Government, the Interstate Commerc\ tes mission broad power to fix the throng rake ' ·1 ust ma • and through routes the rat ways 01 • not on ly t In other words, the Governmen ~s • its competing with the railways, but is u:~~; to regulating power to dictate terms 1 ompete make it certain the Government \VI c successfully. f <Yovernrncnt When business men who a\'or t> r10e are ownership and operation of the barge ~f [81 told that it is socialistic and, therefore contr to their avowed ~ri~ciples, they all ~ake :~ sai:ne answer. ~his _is, that government owner ship and operation 1s to be temporary, that if t!1e S7ov~rnment makes a success of the barge hne 1t will be turned over to private enterprise. T his raises some significant questions: \ Vhen did private enterprise in this country begin to show such lack of initiative and courage as to ask th_e Governmen_t to undertake any p ro1ect that private enterprise really believed could be made successful? 1f b usiness men believe, as most of them prof css t.o, that government management is sure to he inefficient, how can they believe that government management of the barge line will be efficient enough to make it a success? If the Government does make a success of it, why have the barge line taken over by private enterprise? Why not have the Goyernment ontr continue to own and operate it, and then see _1£ the Government cannot also make a success m manufacturing, mining and other lines of buslness? 1£ socialistic policy in the field of transportation is desirable, why not in all lines of bus10ess? It is easy to understand why th~ G?vernment should get out of a business in which_ 1t makes a • failure but will not private enterprise show a ~eat deal of imprudence if it stays out of the barge business until it bas been made a succ~ss at the expense of the tax-payers, and th en tnes to grab it in order to get the profits? What Makes a Failure? There are still other questions th at may be asked of business men who are backing govrnment ownership and operation of the barge me. . . b • ed to show that What evidence w111 e_ requir •th 1·t ·r it it is a failure?

Furtl_1c~mo_re, lie, investing subthrouahout the Miss 1551PP 1\ a ) 1·n water ' stanli:1 amount~ of public money ~t 191 �terminals, it seems certain that even though, measured by ordipary economic and business standards, the experiment could be conclusively demonstrated to be a failure it would be extremely difficult to get the barge service abandoned , or e,·en to preYent it from being extended. ;o, ernment ow11ership and operation of a It is generally agreed by business men that the growing burden of taxes, and the increasing tendency of the Government to interfere and engage in business, are twin menaces to our welfare. I repeat that business men themselves are 9r these menaces. They are chiefly responsi. constantly promoting schemes on a local, state and even national scale to increase governmental expenditures and thereby taxes. Business men are constantly backing projects for increased g overnmental interference and competition with other people's business. They do these things in their supposed self-interest. By doing them, however, they usually, in the long run, work contrary to their own interest and thc1:t of everybody else. They have to help pay the increased taxes that they make ne~essary, and they set precedents, by promotwg government interference in other people's business, that are used to justify similar foterference in their own business. And thus they go on, year after year, increasing taxes while dt!nouncing the politicians because taxes are high, and helping to establish a socialist state while talking at their luncheons and dinners and conventions against socialism and socialistic policies.

I understan d· tha t there are a few lapses in the administration because the Ra.11-~ a compensation awards do not come immediately under Mr. Harrin~ton ' s supervision until after these documents are filed in the court, 0 and i'reauent ly after the Judge has passed upon them .

He has suggested that Tuiro Osborne of Ca~per represent ing : the Standard in such matter, should be here and I have asked him to arrange that also. He also promised to give me a list of other persons mom he would suggest sho·.1ld a. ttend. When I have received same, I wi 11 give the matter further consideration. Presumably you and Mr. McAuliffe have given consideration to having a representative of the labor organizations here and concluied that it would not be wise. Judge Lacey l::as suggested that we have al- ways been in agreement with the labor organizations, a situation which has been very helpful in getting compensation legislation through the Legislature. I suggest this so you and 1u-. McAuliffe may consider whether it would be advisable to have Jimmy Morgan and Mr. Fox at the conference.

Mgro, Rock S9ring s, Wyoming o / Dear Mro Pryde: Referring t o your letter o:f August 1st, suggesting August 17th at 10. 00 o'clock A. M. as the date for a conference at our office with reference to possible changes in the compensation law and 01.1r- subsequent exchange of telegrams with reference to the availability af August 16th for the conference: I note that the 16th would not be available for the reasons suggested and we will re-arrange our schedule here so that the conference can be held on the 17th. I have arranged to have Mr. Calverly here and will also arrange through him for a representative from the Midwest Refining Cctm.pany to attend. He has suggested that Mr. Osborne of Ca~per representiri;g . : the Standard in such matter, should be here and I have asked him to arrange that also. He also promised to give me a list of other persons mom he would suggest should attend. When I have received same, I will give the matter further consideration. Presumably you and Mr. Mc.A.uliffe have given consideratiOll to having a representative of the labor organizations here and concluled that it would not be wise. Judge Lacey lns suggested that we have al- ways been in agreement with the labor organizations, a situation which has been very helpful in getting compensation legislation through the Legislature. I suggest this so you and Mr. McAuliffe may consider whether it would be advisable to have Jimmy Morgan and Mr. Fox at the conference.

Pryde Vice President and General Manager Th e Uni on Pe.ci f i c Co al Corn a.ny Rock Sp r i ng s, Wyoming 1 l t ear Si r : I think there should be a conference between some of the larger em)loyers of' lab or in extra- hazardous employments, to vmrk out several proposed ch ange s in th e law, to be presented to the coming Legislature. Here i n Si7e e t r1ater County , an effort is being made to use the Compensation Law a s a poli t ical convey ance. It is unnecessary for me to go into detail as to nho is doing t hi s, and the inconsistent and unreasonable changes which are being proposed. Ho ~ever, the County Attorney has gone so far as to state to the Judg e of t h e dist r ict court that the hernia statute will be repealed by the next Legislatur e. Of course, such action by the Legislature would be in violation of moder n scientific thought upon the subject. Some of the things that I think should be considered are: A law limiting the number of witnesses which the County Attorney may subpoena at the expense of the employer. Non-resident employers of labor to give surety as to contributions to the f und. ·r he constitutionality of the service charge to non-resident employers should be considered. The eff ect of lower wages upon the awards as fixed by the schedule, and the inevitable diminution of the fund, under present schedules. • A modern schedule of loss of vision should be pro posed~ in lieu of the present schedule. The sta tuto ry fees for investigatio n s made by Commissioners u p on reference by the Judge to be fixed by law. I wrote a letter, a few days ago, to Judge Tidball, protest~ng the bringin3 bJ the County Attorney of many witness e s, in behalf of claimants who are iuduced to bring suits by one Dan ~allie. I stated to the Judge' I t I I �Sl'Alll>Al!ll FORM 2103 111-29-10,000 THE UNION PACIFIC COAL COMPANY IN REPLY PLEASE REFER TO OFFICE OF NO. t ha t almos t every t hi ng t hat t h ese witnesses would testify to v:ould have been admitted without any witnesses. But that is not the idea. The using of t he s e vi tnesses is a t the exp ense of employers, and is a gratuity. I think it would be well if you would consider this l.etter, and s e e i f ar range2nents can be made, sometime before it is too late, for such a meetin; , and t o h ave a p rogram for consideration which has been well thought out . At lea st t hose who attend this meeting should be those who have had a ctual experience in t h e op eration of the law, and who have given consideration to t h e administration of the law in other states. It vmuld seem to the writer that Rock Springs would be the most favorable pl ace to have the meeting. '.Cb'.C:H �t _"'J [\ 'i \ .\ i: ~. \.''

Tanaka: \l'lorkman was struck by a fall of top coal while employed in Rock Springs No . 4 rfci.ne on Oct. 17th, 1932, which caused the follo\·.d.ng injuries: Fracture of the 7-9-10-11 and 12th left ribs; both ischia; sacrum; and 1st lumbar vertebrae vath separation of both sacro-illiac joints and severe shock. Workman is married, wife and four children residing in Rock Springs, the children range in ag e from 2 to 9 years, workman has been in our employ for 20 years ·w ith the exception of the years 192 0 and . 19 21; he is .51 years of age and in very poor circumstances. On October 19th, 1932, in conversation v.d.th Dr. 'l'. H. Roe, at the hospital here, we .were advised that the shock had subsided but the worlcman's right lung appeared to be filling with fluid, a11d that due to the serious condition of the worlcman at that time Dr. Roe ,,as unable to make proper examination to determine as to whether or not this was due to hemorrhage or pneumonia, but that he suspected pneumonia, he said that the workman was in a highly nervous condition and that unless he v,as kept quiet and gi van special attention that there was not much hope for his recovery, and he suggested that the worlcman be removed to a private room and that a special nurse be assigned to look after him. 'Ihe Doctor stated that he thought this special care should extend over a period of about ho weeks, We got in touch with Ur. Butler, of the Feck Springs �- 2 .:ipital Commission, and explained the circumstances to him and he agreed that under these conditions that the workman should have specia l care, but that the rules of the Commission prohibited payment for private rooms an d special nurses but that he thought that arrang ements could be made to take care of the additional expense in this case, and that he woul d take the matter up with John McTee, another member of the board. I~r . McTee advised Ur. Butler that such an arrangeme11t was agreeable with him and that payment could be taken care of in some ,ray. Vl e informed Miss Shields, Superintendent of the Hospital, as to the result of our interview with Mr. Butler and that it was our understanding that the Hospital Commission would make provision to defray the expense of private room, special nurse, etc., 'I he v1orkman ,:1as then transferred to a private room and a special nurse detailed to attend him. This special care was contin- ued over a period of ho weeks at which time wo rltman had sufficiently recovered to allow removal to one of the hospital wards. Later, ho'\'rever, when the bill for these services, in an amount of $125 .SO, was presented to the Commission for payment the third member of the board, Joe Kudar, made objection to payment on the grounds that the rules of the Commission must be lived up to regardless of consequences, Mr. licTee then voted with Kudar not to allow the bill and payment of the amount was refused. It is easy to see and understand the possibility of imposition should the commission make no discrimination in the payment of bills of this character, it being generally understood that the cost of service of this character is to be paid by the workman or his family, but considering the unusual conditions of this case and in connection with the fact that this special service �- 3& prescribed as being entirely necessary, by '-.t he Surgeon who is in the en:plo_y of the Commission certainly such special service should be provided a nd not at the expense of the hospital, nurses, or the injured workman. I am enclosing herevd.th bill ol Nurse Sweeney for servic es an d th e hospital is carrying a balance of $41.50 for rent of private room and nurse's board. (sgd) copy H. J.
