My dear Eds So rry I m issed seein g you when you were in C lev elan d . I ta lk e d t o V essy on Saturday and th e re was not much we could s t i r up between u s . We both seemed t o be opposed to the re p o rt o f th e committee. I suggested to Vessy th at I would w r ite a l e t t e r to th e Chairman and I am sending you herew ith a copy o f th is le t t e r . Perhaps in Chicago you might d isc u ss the q u estio n w ith semeone in a u th o rity in the N ation al S a fe ty Council and in t h i s connection I w ill add th a t The Ohio B ra ss Co. h as never been unmindful of the a c cident prevention and h ealth promotion and in cid en tally the Ohio B r a ss Company won th e N ation al S a fe ty Award fo r th e ir accid e n t record in the c la s s in which we belong f o r th e period j u s t p assed . T his award was made in Chicago a t the N ation al S a fe ty Congress during October 1931. I think th e recommendations o f th e committee a re e n tir e ly too d r a s t i c and much more severe than i s n e c e ssa ry . The f a c t o f the m atter i s th a t the commit te e does not know except by h earsay what i s n e c e ssa ry . Xours v ery t r u ly , LWOsC L. W. Olson Factory Manager
