I took theposition that it would be very embarrassing to
present such a request to our Board, especially in view of the fact
that we vere the winners, and that it would be hard to convince our
Board that we should pay counsel for the plaintiff, for after all,
had he won, he would show no nercy to us, and we would not have ex-
pected same. Judge Forman stated he could appreciate our position,
and that under the circuastances, even though Judge Ackerson' S decision
sould seen to place no responsibility upon the Insurance Companies,
he felt that in this instance the Insurance Companies should contribute
to the fund to reinburse Mr. Unger and pay Mr. Ennerglick. His sug-
gestion was to the afect that the Insurance Companies, namely the Globe
and Now Ansterdan, should pay $1000.00 and the U.S. Radium $2000.00.
Mr. Emmerglick initially requested a fee of $75.00, but after
the Judge's suggestion, he stated that he would be willing to accept
$2500.00 if this matter could be brought to a definite conclusion within
a reasonable time, and that if hu received such an amount of moncy, he
would agree not to be aparty to the appeal of Judge Forman's decision;
and furthermore, that he was serving as counsel in behalf of four other
compleinants, and that he would withdraw these Actions; that he was
also retained by counsel on behalf of other cases in shich is suggestion
would be influential in their decision as to what course to pursue.
Judge Forman indicated he would not sign the order until this
had been given consideration and he had some word from the In-
surance Companies' representatives, as well as the Corporation.
