PROX Circular 340 BITS LIFETIME GUARANTEE Every Prox cutter chain is guaranteed for life against breaking and any broken part will be replaced without time limit. Invincible ToolSteel Chain HOW IT WORKS Quick and reliable operation is apparent from the design. The circular back of the ToolSteel bit is perfectly embraced by the tool post, with its flat front face wedgelocked against an inclined surface ahead. The Mac-It screw "steps on the toe" of the toolpost forcibly, and working forces simply help tighten up this wedgelock, yet bit may be changed quickly. Once locked, neither the bit or toolpost can lose out, nor can the bit be improperly set, insuring absolutely uniform bit gauge. The toolpost may be removed by turning the screw several times, no "bite" of screw being required to keep it in, insuring positive locking action without back straining effort. The invaluable feature of compactness is retained in the Invincible-ToolSteel chain. It was not necessary to make it a lot larger to make it stronger. There is no massive or overhanging link or bit holder structure, consequently drag, leverage, and cutterbar and machine upkeep is reduced. The toolpost is squarely behind the ToolSteel bit and is cut to fit the circular back of the bit, so that under extremely abrasive conditions the toolpost is capable of wearing down to a stub without losing bits. �, STR ONGEST HARDEST BIT This ToolSteel bit is formed with a full circular back edge-the strongest possible design-not sawed straight line with slender angle. It is made by a new patented multiple forging process, of fine alloy tool steel, then scientifically hardened in modern controlled heat treating furnaces to an extreme hardness closely approximating that of High Speed (tungsten) steel and possesses high shock resistance. It is an ideal cutting tool for mining machine service. The Invincible ToolSteel Chain NO BIT IS CHEAPER When all costs are considered, along with savings and advantages obtained with ToolSteel bits no other bit is cheaper to use. The ToolSteel bit gives you saving in power, increased tonnage, decreased machine upkeep, and gets the job done on time. E ach of these ToolSteel points cuts at least as much as a hard tipped ordinary mine bit, and many times as much as usual treated mine bits. At small added cost the ToolSteel bits can be supplied from factory tipped with Borium or Hastellite, and some mines also tip them. NO BIT IS QUICKER ToolSteel bits are quicker and easier to set than usual mine bits. There is only one holder, no hard "bite" of the screw is required, and no time is lost in gauging. Yet all bits are as evenly gauged in the chain as teeth on a saw, and they can't lose out. It is only natural that upkeep costs for mining machines using this chain and bit should be much less. DEPENDABLE SER VICE Every part is drop forged-no castings used. The nickel-chrome-molybdenum steel used in these chains is a very fine alloy specification also used in aircraft engines. That is why Invincible chains with ToolSteel bits have set such new high records as 700,000 tons in IIlinois hard cutting conditions, and raised a former average of 16 places to a new average of 28 places cut per 7 hour shift, with a high record of 36. STANDS THE PUNISHMENT ToolSteel Bit Actual Size Any chain will do if the cutting is easy, but the Invincible chain shows its superiority in the meanest cutting conditions a mining machine is ever required to meet. The patented Interlocked and triple-riveted design is a feature afforded on no other chain. Of course the bits will not cut sulphur balls -no steel will do it. But this chain and bit will stand the racket, get the work done, and give a good account of itself. It is a fact that the ToolSteel bit and its holder protect the chain against coring so that the chain life in extreme hard cutting is often doubled. The Interlocks act as little rakes to bring out the cuttings and leave a clean kerf. �' TIME PROVE N A good many ideas about bits and holders have exploded against an unseen sulphur ballthe requirements are extremely trying. The Invincible-ToolSteel chain and bit meets all these requirements and has four years of fully proven highly satisfactory experience to its credit in a great many mines. You are not asked to experiment-the advantages this equipment offers you went through several years testing and changing prior t o placing it on the market four years ago. PROX CHAINS AND BITS ARE MADE IN THIS MODERN SPECIALLY EQUIPP ED PLANT ON THE BANKS OF THE WABASH RIVER , • EXTRE M E SIMPLICITY AND CONVENIENCE You can use the Invincible-ToolSteel chain and bits on your mining machine wit hout changing the usual sprocket or cutterbar in any · way-nothing special is required. Th'e single bit holder has a one inch round shank, it is drop forged and completely machined. Seated against its front face, and protecting it, is the ToolSteel bit. Acting on its "toe" to wedgelock the bit is a ¼" Mac-It screw. No hard pressure of the screw is needed, for working force on the bit simply tries to tighten this wedgelock. Cores coming between bits are bumped off by the slanting sides of the holder before injury can be done, and the holder head may be worn half way to the chain block without losing bits. The bits are aiways easy and quick to change, and holder cannot lose out because of the screw down upon its toe. THE F ULL SOLUTION The ToolSteel bits arrive at your mine in sealed steel convenient containers of 500, and they completely supplant your old bit program. No more forges, sharpening machines, hard facing equipments, or collecting or distributing of bits through the mine. This container of bits represents your entire cost for the cutting obtainable with 1000 scientifically hardened alloy tool steel cutting points each exactly uniform in hardness, toughness, shape, clearance, gauge and cutting power-things you could never obtain with your old bit program. - YO U CAN'T LOSE If you contact us next time you need a cutter chain, we will be glad t_o ~end you ~omplete information, if you will mention the type and length undercut. of your mmmg ffl:achmes.

These sockets accommodate full 4¾ " mine bits-you are not forced to use short bit stock. Of special interest is the fact Prox chains bring the cuttings out to produce a cleaned kerf due to the interlocks acting as small rakes. The P1·ox chains give you many very definite advantages that entail costlier manufacturing operations. Due to their widespread use on all the popular types of mining machines they are offered you for no more than you would pay for other chains that do not have these advantages.

Balance is essential between the various machines making up a mechanical mining uni to If your loader can put out 400 to 700 tons in a shift and your· cutter can provide only 300 to 400 tons ... the result invariably is a reduction in possible output per man and higher cost.

Dear Sir: Your interest in this great subject of Resuscitation led us, some months ago, to send you literature on the H-H Inhalator. You will be glad to know that the treatment proposed has been securing results far beyond the fondest expectations of the sponsors. H-H Inhalators are contributing daily to the saving of lives tha t would otherwise doubtless be lost. Your hesitancy in adopting this treatment may _,,,. ,have been due to an opinion that this was an experiment. ,/ Far from that -- it is a definitely established power for . /. good. H-H Inhalators will give victims of gas asphyxia i~ n, smoke suffocation, etc., every possible chance for c mplete recovery without complications. �Partial List of Users of THE ~ H INHALATOR OIL COMPANIES Atlnntic Refining Co.

A Growing Menace in Factory, Mine, Home and Garage Many hundreds of lives are lost annually in the various industries and in the home from gas asphyxiation, smoke suffocation or from respiratory failures due to other causes. Many more are only partially overcome but are subjected to doubtful and often dangerous treatments, due to the lack of proper knowledge and facilities for handling such cases. Carbon Monoxide is one of the chief health hazards around blast furnaces and Fresno (Cal.) Fire Dept. in mines in case of fire or explosion. Givini:thevictimeverypossiblccbance Every stove in a dwelling house is a ' potential hazard. It is one of the dangers every city fireman faces . . Men who work in garages are almost daily subjected to partial poisoning by carbon monoxide. To meet the constantly growing demand for more knowledge on the subject of Asphyxia, a commission, formed at the request of the American Gas Association, began investigations to determine the best means of treating individuals overcome by gas, smoke, fumes, etc. THE COMMISSION REPORTED: MECHANICAL DEVICES OFFER NOTHING that Manual Respiration can not offer, and strongly recommends that the prone method be employed. INHALATION TREATMENT APPROVED-consisting of the inhalation of a mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which causes a rapid ventilation of the lungs, quickly removing toxic gases from the blood. H-H INHALATOR EXAMINED AND APPROVED for the administering of the inhalation treatment. C.lia.ll'Lber ofCo.n,.merce .B/lig. • .P.ins..burg.h, Pennsy/vanza �No. 801 _;n;;,e uafety App/lances Co. PAGE 3 The Principle of the Inhalation Treatment A victim of gas asphyxiation, smoke suffocation, etc., who is still breathing, is for the time deprived of the power to transport sufficient oxygen from the air thru the lungs to the blood. Theoretically, oxygen inhalation is the obvious method for overcoming the asphyxia. Practically how• ever, the inhalation of oxygen alone does not fulfill its theoretical promise. An auxiliary agent is needed. The breathing of a normal man or animal, as is now well known, is largely regulated by the carbonic acid gas (CO,) produced in the muscles and organs and carried by the blood to the respiratory center in the brain. Carbonic acid is the natural stimulus to this center and thus regulates normal breathing. The supplying of enough carbonic acid gas mixed with oxygen has been found to serve as an immediate stimulus to spontaneous breathing by the patient, thus drawing oxygen in and washing the poisonous gases out of the tissues. Carbogen is the trade name of the correct mixture of oxygen and carbon dioxide to produce normal stimulation and the maximum absorption of O"")'gen. The H-H Inhalator is a d evice • for administering Carbogen to the patient. When respiration has stopped, artificial respiration by th e manual prone pressure method should be employed to start spo n• taneous breathing. This effort should be assisted by administering Carbogen simultaneously from the H-H Inhalator. Carbogen, by causing full ventilation of the lungs, rapidly eliminates poisonous gas from the blood and thus terminates the co ndition of asphy,da. The treatment is highly effective, inducing ra pid an d com• plete recovery if applied early enough.

Deer Mr. Segrave; Your letter of Ju11e 21st at hand. Wish to state in re~l;; th[tt ns you said in your letter, newspapers u:sua.11.y tell of the ~·,ork of the pullmotor i11 gas disasters, but ,for ;rour information the kin'ti of oxygen machines that ,·,ere used at the time were the H~H Inhalator. We succeeded in completely restoring the lives of ·two men wr. o were taken out of the Power Plant apparently dead by the Prone Pressure metPod of resuscitation in connection with the lnhalator. Regarding the details of the die aster, I can say no1;h ing more than the exue.ssi ve gas pressure vh ich was thrown into the lines b r oke thru the water seal and gas escaped i1Jto a basement room in which two electricians were at work. The gas fumes were so dense that the remaining six men v.ho we re partially over come were those who rusbe d into the building for rescue \.Ork. The two men that were restored to life by resuscitation am the lnhalator were placed in a hospital on Sunday and one was dismissed on Tuesday and the other on Wednesday and are now back at work. The remaining ,,.,ho were partially overcome by gas lost no time with the exception of one man who lost a cou:ple o-f days which was due to stomach disorders. I need not state that the li-H Inhalator measures up to all that is claimed for there is no better recoIIlllendation can be given than the fact that I have placed an order for another Inhalator which we expect to use and along with the two that we alreadY have ivill be used exclusively for rese=ue warle.

The Inhalator has been borrowed by various hospitals on cases which have nothing to do with gas asphyxiation° The police departments of l?awtucket and Central Falls have also called for the Inhalator on various cases of electrical shocks, drownings, etc. During the past year we have had several calls for the Inhalator due to attempt at suicide by gas. In all these cases the application of the Inhalator has been successful and the persons fully recovered from effects of the gas poisoningo One woman at Central Falls having been overcome for some little time before her case ·was known. One call of some little interest was made at Woonsocket where three men had been confined in a gas filled bedroom for many hours. The initial use of the Inhalator prolonged the lives of the victims as they lived two days after being resuscitated, but due to other symptoms outside of the gas it was impossible for the men to live . . We have also had many small cases where the patient was only partly overcome by gas and the Inhalator hastened their recovery and prevented a great d~al of the after sickness. We have also used the Inhalator in demonstrating first aid at public exhibitions.

On hearing a report similar to a heavy bottom shot they stopped work. In a few seconds the air became hazy and Johns knew something serious had happened. He and his buddy decided to take the motor which was standing nearby and run out to the main heading whioh was the main haulage on the intake. They had only gone a short distance when the motor ran onto a fall. By that time Johns and Beltti were groggy and Johns having his Self-Rescuer with him put it on and started with his buddy to walk. They had only gone a short distance when Beltti was overcome and Johns went on alone. On reaching the main heading be met William Harper who was bringing a trip from the outside and be told Harper where Beltti had fallen some distance in the 7th left heading. Harper took the Self-Rescuer from Johns (the main heading and haulage ventilation not being damaged) and went back into the 7th left, with the motor 1 located Beltti and brought him outside unconscious, although later he came around in good shape. Raymond Johns was one of the few who believed in carrying the Self-Rescuer or, •tin can", as some of the miners named it, and he said that had it not been for the Rescuer he would have lost his life. Beltti also owes his life to the fact that Johns carried the Self-Rescuer. The bulletin attached shows several methods of installation. If you will be kind enough to fill in and mail the enclosed card to us, one of our representatives will gladly arrange a demonstration for you at your mine in actual carbon monoxide gas - of course without any obligation whatsoever. very truly, PLIANCES COMPANY, I, ,.,,_f!M -...... , .....1....__ BBl'.:LB B.

There's a feeling of security wearing a Hard Boiled Hat, and this tends to raise the morale of the wearer. Hard Boiled Hats weigh only 7 ounces, so the men are equally strong for them from a convenience angle. In commenting on the experiences of his mine safety department, Mr. W. D. Brennan makes the statement at the Fourth Annual Convention of Practical Operating Men under auspices of the American Mining Congress, held at Cincinnati, Ohio, from May 16th to 20th, 1927, that: "Hard Boiled Caps are one of the safety precautions used by the under-ground workers on the properties under Mr. Brennan's direction, and Coal Age for May 26th, 1927, reports him to say that 'Now the Company (Phelps-Dodge Corporation) is insisting on the use of Hard Boiled Caps in the coal mines. Where they have been installed in one of the metal mines of the same Company they have practically prevented the occurrence of head accidents from the falling of _rock. They have unquestionably saved several lives during the present year.'" Two Styles 1. Special processed fiber, water and acid froof, non-conductor o electricity, blow resisting. 2. Air space, allowing free circulation of air. 3. Ventilating holes. 4. Lining adjusting cord, adjustable to fit head comfortably. 5. "Hammocking" effect of lining distributes blow equally. 6. Lining sewed on outer side of hat. Can't tear loose. 7. Sweat band; insures comfort. 8. Southwester brim pro• tects neck and shoulders. The Hard Boiled Hat Pre-rents Head Injuries The Hard Boiled Hat supplies individual protection to the miner. It is made of fiber, pressed together under a patented process, so as to give positive protection to the wearer. EYery Miner Wants One Once a miner has worn a Hard Boiled Hat it is hard to get him in a mine with- Hard Boiled Hats come in two styles for mine use, either without lamp bracket or with lamp bracket for carbide or electric lamps. The Southwester type protects the neck and shoulders, as well as the head, and is especially valuable for wet places, shedding the drip. Send For _a Sample We will gladly send you a Hard Boiled Hat or Cap of the type in which you are interested. Specify with or without lamp bracket and whether carbide or electric lamp. The price of a Cap is $2.75 and $3.00 for the Southwester. Quantity prices will be quoted on application.

In other words, as I understand the law, the Co~l Company is not required to pay 1-1/2% of ~he wages of all of its employee but only those engaged in extra hazardous e~plo~ent and I desire to be assured that we are paying only what is required. Office and Store Department employee are as I take it, not engaged in extra hazardous employment and it may be that certain of the ground men in the service should not be so classified. No doubt the State has been called upon to interpret the law and · possibly has issued a list of employee to be regarded as engaged in extra hazardous employment and if ao, I would be glad to have you send me a copy ot the ruling. �- 2 If you have not already arranged. to do . so, perhaps it would be we~l to have your Auditor check the amounts and returns mad~ by the Union Pacific Coal Company to assure us that we are making payments only as are required by the law.

Dear Sir: Referring to questionnaire sent out by A. D. Hoskins, State Treasurer, having reference to c ontempla ted changes in the compensation law, I am enclosing herewith, copy of my reply. Think this m~tter should _receive our vigorous consideration, and protest agains t the State Treasurer, or any other State Officer taking upon · himsel f by w~y of recommendation or otherwise, the establishment of some form of commis s ion or other expensive method which will increase the cost of compensation, and reduce the net result to the employee. I have therefore sent out notices calling a meeting at Rock Springs, January 2nd, and feel that the operators should get together and fight vigorously, the questions contained in this questionnaire.

Brooks, · General Manager, Union Pacific Coal Co., Rock Springs, Wyoming. My dear Mr. Brooks: I was very glad to hear from you regarding your opinion of the Wyoming Workmen's Compensation Law. On Sunday I had a conference which was attended by a nll!Ilber of representatives of labor, the State Mine Inspector, and Mr. William Sammon, who has charge of the administration of this law. The more we discussed the matter the more doubtful I became as to the amendments and changes that appeared to be necessary. I am not an expert on workmen's compensation. It is a very complicated matter and after listening to those who seemed to know so much more about it than I it was difficult for me to arrive at any positive conclusion. I will sa;y, 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 sho~ld be amended to include practically all workmen within the State; second, ~he amount paid for temporary total 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 getting along pretty well. Very truly yours, ~ I). CV~. �Jn.nuary 8 lnd5e. J . .1.

Brooks, Gen.Mgr., Union Pacific Coal Company, Rock Springs, Wyomi ng. My dear Mr . Brooks: Your letter of December 23rd reached me i n du e . s eason, and have endeavored to comply with your reque st, but for r ea.aons hereinafter enumerated have been unable to do so pr omptly . In the fi r st place the report for th e year ending October 31, 1920 shoul d have been out of the pri nters • hands long before this, bu t for some reason i s no t yet off the press. I have been waiting to get thie year ' s experience, as I have no doubt this is t he one you would desi re the moat. Even the reports of last year are hard t o get, and am haTing the Olympia office s end you some direct, hopi ng you may fi nd information in them that \7111 be benefici al i n your work there. Several oo~ies of the Mining Code , t oget her wi th amendments of the l egislature of 1919 are being s ent under separate cover, as per your request. As to the personal featur e in dealing wi th administ rati Te problems , I am inclined to the :. belief that most states are top-hea-yy wi th oommiasions, resulting in a great de al of waste of the taxpayers• money, merely paying political debts in a large number of cases to men who may be good politicians but l aok administratiTe a.nd exeoutiTe ability, not to speak ot intense interest in the work assigned the~. As to my opinion regarding the personnel suggested by your law, were men to fall into the hands of a just judge, they would indeed be fortunate, but an act of this kind should be as far remo ved from legal and financial interests as it is possible tor them to get, a.nd~laoed in the hands of upright, unbiased administrators whose sole object would be to administer the law equitably and oonsiderately to all parties concerned. Different states have had different experiences, and I am loath to criticise without having concrete facts for guidance, but I do think our own law oould be handled at much less expense than it is now. You appreciate that the administration expenses are paid for by general taxation, an appropriation made by the legislature for this purpose. And yet I am informed by Mr. Andersen that under the Montana syetem, which is eleot1Ye as to whether they come �I • lil', E• s. Brooks a I I under the state or private administration1. their costs are less · with higher compensation awards than are paid in our own state·. · How· this can be I have no means of determining, but sU:oh is the statement made by Mr. Andersen. I should suggest that aside from your District Judge, some man not directly connected with the court, such as the clerk, but rather a .public spirited citizen, either a laboring man or some level headed business man, be entrusted with the administration of your law. It looks too one-aided to have the whole-hearted support of all elements of society. This ia · merely my own humble criticism for yourself personally, and ' not as expert adTice for public use. Mias r.aehburn, the Association and myself appreciate your greetings, and extend the same to yourself and Mrs. Brooks. · Hoping that you will live to see many happy returns of the season, and with kindest personal regards, I am Ve:ry truly yours, �PERCY GILBERT coM1'fiSSiONERS SECRETARY H,L, HUGH~~AIRMAN ERNEST A , SEABORG E,S,GILL STATE OF WASHINGTON r --.. llj OFFICE OF I INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE: DE:PARTM E: NT .........

Tha basis of his argmoont being, th:lt tm fund is in a :position to carry this increase as the earnings for 1920 are ninety paroent above tha e:xpanditures. No doubt this is a fact, but must keep 1n mind that during tha yaar 1920 tm production of oil and coal, tla two oomnodities contributing the most money to tlla fund :ra at tmir heighth. I cannot speak on- the oil as intelligontly as on coal, but we all lmow that eyoming surpassed all p:revious Jaarly productions and worked more dqs during 1920 than any previous years. As our asseaSJIBnt 1s based upon payrolls, this naturall.il means that contributed more money to the t1md. I think the condition in 1921 will be tm 1"8verse •. I believe wyomillg tonnage will be much less and the nuni>er of worldl1g dqs will be greatq deo:reaaed. !lhis will mean smaller ~ l l s and consequently a less amount of momy paid into the f'1md, so that I believe tla t at t:m end ot 1921 this relation between receipts and expenditures of 1921 will exiat, so that I th1Dk these tacts must be ta.ken into consideration detemintng Just how much the oonp3nsation should be imreased. we belieft i t shoUl.d be im:reased, but not to tbe extent of ninety ;i P&l'Oe:nt. !be bill pnaented to the legislatme will no 4o'abt adTOO&te tm n:tandillg to tm state of soma t22e.e1t.66 whioh the State :baa transfer.red. t:L-oa ita ge:nanl t,mct to tm worlmants oom- 1!1!1 �SUPERIOR ROCK SPRINGS COAL CO . Page 2o (llr• E o So Brooks) o pensation f"an.d. There is a question in rru mind as to whatl:lar this should be done ina.smuoh-a.s the taxpayers and .the state desire the workman's compensatio~ fund, and in order to get it started9 appropriated a certain amowt of money each year. Now that the worlmlan 1 s compensation fund has becona self-supporting, I do not believe it is right for tllam to ask that this money be given back to thamo However, I do thinlt th.at th.a amotmt contributed could be decreased over a period of three or four years so that at tha end of this time 9 the State would be relieved of tha contribution. I bslieve that State off'ioials and particularly the employees ara endeavoring to receive benefits from tlla large flmd that has accumulated and have entirely igntirad tmi employer who has created this :f'Und 7 in their desire to distribute a. portion of' ito If the fund has beoome top heavy and it is the belief that it is now self-supporting, I think that the rate paid by th.a employer should be reduoed possibly to one and a quarter ~rcent or on.s paroant o The compensation to the employee increases and tha State gradually relieved of its contribution. I think yre should not lose sight of tha fact that their are three parties interested in this f'llnd 9 the employe:r, the employee and the state. It is interesting to note tha awards ma.de for injuries during the existence of the workman's compensation. These are sho\'Jll in tha fourth report and the supplement report, and I list them below for your information:First .Period second Period Third Period FOurth Period Fifth .Period $62,171.91 99,598.03 94,953.6'1 131'15'1.95 233, 02.7 • '11 You will note that the awards for injuries have gradually increased each year. !his no doubt, being dua to the fact that the worlm:en•s compensation law is gradually extending tm scope of its work and :naturally more 1njur;les are coming under its jurisdiction, so that I feel that during 1921 the depa.rtnent will be faced with a:n increased amount of awards with decreased receipts. I bel:leve tba. t the idea of having a commission to handle this conpensation 1s a dead issue as it seems that all employers and eiqployees are opposed to it, and while it has been advocated in the Treas1U'8r 1 s report, I do not believe it will become an issue. I talked with Martin Cahill and James Morgan quite a number of times. I believe that they are wry reasonable in their dellBD4a from the standpoint of the employee. Morgan seems to teal that \VYOmiDg should be at the head ot the 11st of all other states 1n 1ta oe>q,ensation to emplo19es, but I believe this is going a li'ttle strong. I think records show that out of the forty five states and territories, that \VYODlllJ8 ranks :tifteenth in tm amount of ooJll!)&nsation. Or 1n othar words, Wyoming is in the first third which I think is ~ oallent position o o n s i ~ t h a t om- OOJl!l)8J1eation law is �SUPERIOR ROCK SPRINGS COAL CO. page 3.-(Mr• E. s.

There are quite a number of otbar minor corrections of the lav, which will come up9 but I do not believe thay will affect the employer one way or anothero If at any time I can be of assistance·9 I will be very glad to have you call on meo very truly yours 9 SO.PER!OR ROCK SPRINGS CO.AL COo o General Hanagaro HOM-te "' �Superior ock Springs C oal Co.

Coal Co. 0 Rock Springs, Wyomingo Dear Mr. Brooks:I have your letter of the 11th and I consider the thought as expressed therein an excellent ideao The doctors certainly do not come through with reports so as to be able to settle matters promptly; and furthermore, it is getting so that they are leaning more towards the miners than the companies; as they get their appointments and election from the miners, it will be necessary for us to impress them, in some way, so that we will get a fair deal and prompt action. I very much favor your scheme, and I will be glad to participate. I take it the expense of this matter will be borne by Southern Wyoming Coal Operators Association. Yours truly, PJQ-P.

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.

Our Master Fisherman, l5r. L. r:. Mitchell, who is re~overi11g from an attack of pneumonia, ..-r.Ul, I am afraid, if he is well enough, have to be in Chicago, but Ur. Pryde ,,ill Gend one of our Engineers, 1:Ir. John A. Smith, who is a very fine type of man, mth one of our cars, to lead you to Je.ckson, uhere :r!ir. Pryde uill have arranged for accommodations in advance by long distance telephone. llr. Smith tdll probably have v!l.th him one .o f our m,st expert fish.ermen, Mr. n. D. Bryson, Superintendent of the Colony Coal Company, at Dines, \':yoming, uhich is just outside of !lock Springs. llr. Bryson is a very fine gentleman \Yho, I understand, knous all. the fish by their first names. They \1.i.11 tako some tackle ui.th them. \'ihile rtJack" Smith does rIOt claim to be a fisherman , he knor1a everybody in that country, and \'"Jill convoy your party, these tuo gen1;lensn reme.ininz uith you as long as you wish to stay. �2 \1hile I did 1wt specifically ask you, my recollection is tha·~ you said lli.ss Knight, the Professor and his t1ife, wuld make up your party. If there are more, just advise Hr. Pryde in your wiro hot! many ro oIl1SJ you \"Ii sh . I aau Mr. Hitchell thi s morning, and he states that the fish are bitiit; ,ronderfully, rutd they could be caught most easily from a boat, a supply of boats available. Do not, however, get out too far on Jackson Lnke, as uind storms como up very suddenly , lir. Mitchell advising the best fishing ia a fet1 hundred yards from the shore, t'.here tho fish find feeding material. I mah you am your party to feel that you are my personal. guests from the tima you arrive in Rock Springo until you clear the fishing grounds, and you uill find Hr. Pryde a most gracious gentleman, who tlill take delight in doing for you and your party what I uish I could do for you personally, it impossible !or me to be on the grom!d. I expect to leave 1:bnday for tho Pacific Coast , and ,Jill not be back in Orne.ha before the e:ighteenth or nineteenth.

Pryde/ Rook Springs �Omaha, June 2., 1933. Mro Go Bo Pryde: Some months ago., Bishop Eo Vo Sha.yler of Omaha asked me if I could tell him about the fishing around Jackson Hole:, he advising that he had prOlll.ised Professor Knight, his brother~ in-law, who is on the staff of Ohio State University$ to bring him out to Wyoming for some good fishingo I had in mind getting Mro Mitchell to run up with the Bishop, steering him around for a couple of days$ but LonVs illness will perhaps prevent his doing this, the Bishop reaching Rock Springs about June 18tho I wish you would think this over and if you can get one of our boys who is an expert fisherman and conversant with the country, who would be willing to go up there for a couple of days., I would like to have him do so and I will personally take care of all expenses attached to same. I dontt ·think Jack Smith is a fisherman., but a man of Jack's fine qualities would appeal to the Bishop and Professor Knight. In this connection, there would perhaps be two or three ladies in the party. Please think this over so that I may discuss same with you at Rock Springs next weeko � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
