Dear Hr. Halloryi
The chart below shows a ooraparison of the accident experience produced by your plant during this and previous years.

The comparison shows an excellent decrease In the nuaber of accidents. The nuaber of lost tine accidents increased, but the number remains less than the total produced during 1961.
The Ices rate (losses per 1000 manhours) produced is 2.87. This ' measurement of accident control has not been kept In the past, hut
the 2.8? represents a eery favorable degree of lose control.
On the following page* yon will find a review of lose control efforts and an outline of Objectives for 1964.
Very truly yours,
