Letters Sent to Sidney Mason, February 5, 1926

February 5, 1926. Mr. Sidney Mason, President, Welsbach Company, Gloucester, N. J. Dear Mr. Mason: I have your letter of the 4th. I do not believe that there is any basis provided by the Jersey State Compensation law that covers the Buckley case. A technical man in his capacity knows the hazards if any of his employment. We contimied Dr. Lemen's salary in full for six or seven months, not with any idea of a possible suit because we never believed that was a possibility, but because if any of our valuable men met wäth accident, we would take care of them. If I should be killed in a ferry accident tonight on the way home, there is no doubt in my mind that the company would contimie my salary for six months, etc. I believe that a joint defense should an action be brought against your commany would not appeal to my directors. It is most unfortunate that I will not be able to see Dr. Miner this afternoon. I have a meeting of such importance that I cannot be absent which will talte me away from the office. Hoping to catch him before he left Gloucester, I wired him as follows: IMPORTAIT MRETINO THIS APTRINOOM. WILL NOT BE IN OFFICK. If he comes over any way, lir. Lee will be hore to take delivery of the Nesothorium. If he decides to postpone his trip, I would be very happy to see him Monday or Tuesday and give him all my views in the various situations. Yours truly, President.
