IMPORTANT: The recommendations listed above which are marked asterisks (*) should receive your early attention, as we have found by experience that the conditions to which they apply have been frequent causes of accidents. The remainder of the recommendations listed are ourbry suggestive, and compliance with them should therefore be considered as wholly optional on your part. l1a. February Twelfth Nineteen Twenty-nine President Frank L. McVey University of Kentucky My dear President MrcVey: I have just received your note of the 11th instant pertaining to the recomnendations of the Aetna Life Insurance Cornpany relative to certain safety devices for machirnes in the shops and laboratories of the Col- lege of Engineering. My estimate of the cost of Providing these safety de- vices is $385.00. We have a difficult time in carrying on the operations of the College of Engineering with the money provided for such purpose and it would be im- possible to take from our current budget this amount of money. If money is appropriated for this purpose, I will be glad to comply with the recommendations of the inspector of the Aetna Life Insurance Company. This report might indicate to the casual observer that we do not give consideration to the question of safety in our various shops and laboratories but I have been always much concerned in protecting instructors and students from serious injury. As evidence of our watch- fulness in the installation of safety devices we have been singularly free from accidents. The inspectors of insurance companies frequently indulge in hair-splitting reasoning and whereas they do much good in the general work of accident prevention they at times become a nui- sance in making recommendations for installing safety devices that are unnecessary. I will, however, be very glad to carry out the full detail of the safety report if money is provided for so doing. Very truly yours, F. Paul Anderson Dean lib. Aetna Life Insurance Company St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 14, 1929 University of Kentucky Lexington Kentucky. Gentlemen: Attention: D. H. Peak, Business Agent I am in receipt of your letter of January 12th with ref- erence to suggestions which our Inspector made pertain- ing to the physical condition of equipment around the Farm and Experimental Station at Lexington, Ky. The report of our Safety Engineer indicates that the phys- ical condition of the equipment in this Experimental Sta- tion, as far as safety precattions are concerned, is much below the average manufacturing plant in the State of Kentucky. The men who use this equipment will be the owners, manag- gers and superintendents of our future plants in this state. It seems to the writer that every effort should be made by our State Institutions to train and educate the future heads of business in the great problem of accident prevention. nhat will be the future attitude of the young men who receive their training around unguarded, dangerous equip- ment in this College when they leave and accept positions of authority in manufacturing plants. The National Safety Council and other public organizations interested in safety have come to the conclusion that safety begins at home and in our schools. For this reason we believe that every effort possible be made to immediately comply with the suggestions which our trained engineers have submitted regarding your physical equipment. We also believe that every effort should be made to ed- ucate the students in this Institution along safety lines and we will be glad to render any assistance possible in such a movement. Very truly yours, S. R. Millman Supervisor of Inspections SRH*1W COPY 12. 8. Report of Mlerorial Building Funds. President HcVey reported hant a stater.mient had been received from John R.

Injumies to Employees. President McVey reported that Stephen Saunier, an employee in the machine shops at the Uni- versity, had recently lost an eye as a result of a piece of steel entering his eye. The President indicated that Mr. Saun- ier had received insurance from the Workmen's Compensation Board in the amount of $1200 for the loss of his eye. The President presented a letter from Dean Cooper regard- ing an injury received by an employee at the Robinson Sub-Ex- periment Station. 13'. Lexington, Ky. April 8, 1929 President Frank L. McVey University of Kentucky Dear President MicVey: In accordance with our conversation, I am presenting a brief statement relative to the Henderson Corbs case. Hr. Combs, an employee on the Robinson forest tract, was struck on the leg by a piece of timber. Some eight or ten days following, he complained that he was disabled. Mr. Jones, the superintendent, suggested that he have Dr. Hoge.make an examination. After mak- ing the examination, Dr. Hoge reported sores rather than injury, for which he gave Mr,. Combs several treatments. The case was reported by Mr. Peak to the Aetna Insurance Company. Their adjuster made a trip to Jackson, took up the matter with Dr. Hoge and refused compensation as he indicated that the injury on the leg was not a dis- abling one, but due to "an infection in his blood rather than from the contusion." The matter is thus returned t'o the University, Dr. Hoge expecting to receive his fee from us. The quest ion is whether we may legally pay this fee, it having been refused by the insurance com- pany which Vre employ to protect us against such claims. The total sum involved is $45. It is my suggestion, unless there is some legal reason why we should not, that we secure authorization to make the payment. I should not hesitate to draw the requisition at present, except for the possible questions of liability and legality that may be involved. Very truly yours, Thomas Cooper Dean and Director The matter was discussed and motion was made, seconded anr carried that the bill of Dr. Hoge be paid. 14. 1.1. Lease of Part of Scovell Park. A communication from Asher Coal Company was presented to the Board of Trustees, ask- ing permission to lease a part of Scovell Park for the purpose of installing a coal yard.
