Gent~emen:
November 5, 1963
I wish to sincerely request that favorable consideration be given my application
to the Employees' Pension plan, in order that I may contribute and spare in
future benefits as covered by the Pension Act.
Attention is called to the attached report of Dr. Harrison, in which he rates me
a "Fi.rst Class Risk," but shows a past history of hernia, for which I underwent
operative repair, also a back injury of which I have recovered. If I am accepted
under ~he Pension Plan, this letter will serve as a waiver of any claim for dis-
ability or other benefits under the Pension Plan should such disability or claim
stern from hernia or back injury above mentioned.
Very truly yours,
/s / Paul Mack

under the Pension Plan, this letter will serve as a waiver of any claim for dis-
ability or othex benefits under the Pension Plan should such disability or cl.aim
stem from hernia or back injury above anentioned.
