became due for promotion in the line
on July q.
For the purpose Of recommending
officers of the Corps of Engineers for
to the rank Of commander
the Bureau Of Yards and Docks has
requested the appointment of a board
to convene on August Is. In all
probability the board will consist of
the following officers: Rear Admiral II !.
H. Rousseau. c. w. Parks (retired),
l.. E. Gregory and Capts. r. E. Baken-
hus. r. c. Hollyday and G. A. Mckay
The reason that the Bureau Of Yards
and Docks requested the appointment
of this board is that the recent line
selection board recommended for pro-
motion to commander the running
mates of Lieut.. Comdrs. Gaylord
Church and Ralph D. Spalding of the
Corps of Engineers. as in accordance
with the equalization of promotion
law these two officers now become
eligible for selection to the next higher
rank. There are two additional lieu

who became eligible for selection to
the next higher rank in accordance
with that law, which makes a total of
four who may be considered.
Postponement has been made of the
date for the converting of the selec-
ton board to recommend officers of
the Dental Corps for promotion to
commander, due to the absence on
leave of certain rear admirals of the
line who are available for duty as
members Of that board. The date was
originally set some time during Au.
gust, but 1t will be some time early
in september before the board will
be convened. The membership of that
hoard has not yet been decided upon,
but in all probability it will be com.

Due to the fact that officers of the

Easy to Improve Fire
Protection, League Says
National Underwriters Rate Most
Minnesota Communities i'm Low
Expensive Classes.

Minneapolis, Nov. 3rd-That scores
of Minnesota cities and villages could
make saving of approximately one
cent thousand ON all fire insurance
premiums paid by residents of the
community if they would only do so
little as pass satisfactory fire pro-
lection ordinance is pointed out by
Harvey Walker, a representative of
the League of Minnesota Municipal
tiles. MIR. Walker has made a tho
rough study of fire insurance in Min
nesota which shows that only two
Minnesota communities, Minneapolis
and st. Paul, are in the third class
of fire insurance risks as the Ma
tional Board of-Fire Underwriters
rates them, while only five others
have got into the fourth class, these
being Duluth, Winona, Virginia, Ro-
chester, and Red Wing, Hibbing,
Chisholm, Saltwater, and Eveleth are
in class 5. Others are in higher
classes and pay higher fire insurance
rates.
Results of Mr.. Walkers study are
published in Minnesota Municipal
tiles" which is issued by the league
from it's offices at the University of
Minnesota.
Ratings ON fire insurance are based
on community's deficiency under
perfection. No city in the entire coun-
try is in class 1, and only one or two
are in class g.
Starting with zero, the schedule of
the National Board admits of a total
deficiency of 5000 points which are
divided into seven major items as
follows: water supply, 1900; fire de-
partment 1900; fire alarm system $50;
police department so; building laws
200; fire hazard ordinance 800, and
structural conditions 700. Thus by
passing an ordinance community
can improve one-fifth as much as
it could by developing fire depart
ment that was absolutely perfect and
graded none of the 1900 points of
deficiency obtainable on that score.
Cities having from 1,OO1 to 1900
points of deficiency are in class 3;
those with 1901 to 1000 points of
deficiency are in class 4, and those
with 2,001 to $500 points of def
cheney are in class 5. Glass runs
up to 5000 points and class to
$500 points. Most of the smaller
Minnesota communities are found to
be in classes 6, 7, and 8.

crested in this study, which includes
