EXPLANATORY COMMENT
(By E. B. Black


 We find the cost to reproduce this property at prices prevailing in October 1945 to be $327 ,082, and the cost to reproduce it, less depre- citation accrued to that date, to be $227 ,896. These totals in- clude the Waynor Addition property as summarized :, totaling S9,908 for reproduction cost new, and $8, TOO for reproduction cost new less depreciation.
 Tt should be understood that re- production cost new is the cost to reproduce this property at prices prevailing in october of l945-- probably peak prices for both ma terials and labor-and that repro duction cost new less depreciation represents the depreciateds value of identicauy the same property at the same date.
 If constructing water works system the City probably would not construct an identical system, and certainly would not construct it during a period of high cost of labor and materials unless an emer- gency impended."
The Daily Alaska empire., 1946-03-06

In a second communication re- lating to the survey of utility properties in this City conducted by his firm, MT. Black has includ- ed this comment: MT. Stuart has no doubt called your attention to the fact that the cost of reproduc- tion new less depreciation as carried in our valuations of these proper ties should not be used as basis for rate making purposes. In other words, rates are seldom if ever calculated on valuations made at the extreme peak of prices or at extreme low prices, but rather on an average say for a ten year per- iod')

A MESSAGE TO THE PRESIDENTS
AND MEMBERS

Dear Presidents: While things are
moving along in the H. B. A. in. a
quiet a nd satisfactory manner and
while t h e membership continues to
grow and while we continue to in
crease with the payment of death
c | a ms to beneficiaries and while
money is still plentiful, l want to sEg-
gest to you as your General Secretary,
the idea Of making a strong attempt
to complete the payment of the bal
ance on our bond by the end of this
year.
1t is a grand and glorious thing to
think of the fact that we only lack
$1850,00 of having Ten Thousand cash
dollars with the Insurance Depart
ment in Jackson, Mississippi, for the
protection of policy holders. 1t is
still a greater thought when you think
of the fact that our home office build
ing is paid for; our taxes are paid;
our insurance paid; we have our lie
ense to do business until December
.31, 1916 and our Agents have been
issued annual license to transact bust
ness as local and general agents.
My plea to each of you is "Lets
Increase Our Membership And Let's
Deposit With The Insurance Depart
ment S185O.00 Which Will Make a
Total of Ten Thousand Cash Dollars
Up In Bonds By The Association.
No grander and nobler thing can be
done.
We should do our best to at least
put five hundred dollars on h is
amount by the June Board. 1t can be
done and I believe it will be done. I
have faith and confidence in the local
presidents to that effect.
The Executive Board would approve
Fundamentally such a move.
Peace and harmony now prevail
throughout the Association and love
seems to permeate the hearts of all.
We cannot hear of any general off
GER, agent, president or member who
is dissatisfied
Lets go to "town' while the road
is clear

Plane Contract With NAVY

The Douglas Aircraft Co., Inc, to-

ordered $4,000, 900 worth of the new
dive and torpedo plane BT2D-l.
The company said the new plane

pounds, a battery of 5-inch rock
cts and 20 nm machine guns in the

tuted the Nays sole offensive air
arm"
The BT2D-1 is credited with ex-
Iceptional maneuverability and rate
of climb and is equipped with fuse

ship is 80 feet long and weighs
10,470 pounds, minus useful load.
