 In an interview this morning with MT. Meyer Blum, a member of the firm, he stated that while the con. cern has sustained a heavy blow by the destruction of it's store and the big stock therein. they were not un- dismayed. and despite their heavy loss they would not only rebuild, but would commence at the earliest pos sible moment the erection of a build ing which would surpass even tho beautiful structure just destroyed; building which you'd be a source of pride not only to the concern but to the people of Valdez, and second to none ia all Alaska.
 Already plans for the building are being discussed and MT. Blum sur ed the representative of the Prospec- tor that no time would be lost in bringing the structure to completion. Much depends on the weather condi- tions as to just when the start will be made, but the first opportunity will be embraced. >.

 In regard to the bank, MT. Blum stated that arrangements had not yet been completed for opening that in- stitution. It will probably be a day or two before it is safe to open the vault owing to the intense heat to which it was subjected. AS soon as possible quarters for the bank will be opened and business resumed.
