 Announcement of the change came from Fred R. Geeslin, Act ing Supt. of Alaska Native Service, who declaretl We were fortunate in being ahle to retain MT. Carrier during the important beginning period of reconversion of the former Naval Air Base at Sitka following it's acquisition last August for use as an orthopedic hospital, sana- tolium and. in another area, as a vocational and boarding school fur Alaska Native peoples.
 "As former commandant of the Naval Base, Carrier possessed a valuable knowledge of the vast in- stallation and it's reconverion needs, and We feel his contribution has been extremely valuable
 within the nine months period since acquisition of the Japonski and Alice Island plant, the Eklutna ] Vocational School near Seward and the Skagway Sanatorium have been closed and pupils and patients transferred to Mount Edgecumbe, thus reducing overall operation and administration costs for both school and medical needs. Accommodations have already been provided at Edgeculnbe for 400 school children 120 tuberculosis patients and 50 or thopedic cases, while simultaneously quarters have been reconditioned and equipped to house the neces- sary personnel,'' MT Geeslin eX- plained
 Termination of Carriers employ ment, it was pointed out, is in line with an overall reduction in forces for the Alaska Native Service af- fecting all departments and activ- ities, in view of the serious re- trenchment program now being fac ed.

PUD Rate Change
To Save $4,000
Yearly For Users

The Benton County PUD today
announced an adjustment of rate
schedules that is expected to save
approximately $4,000 a year for
the power consumers of Benton
County.
During a temporary develop
ment period, the schedules contain
a surcharge, added to assure the
feasibility of the districts opera
ton and to provide funds for new
construction. Removal of the sur
charge is expected in about six
months, PUD officials said, and
will result still-further lowered
rate schedules which will save
consumers an estimated $4,000 a
year.
Officials emphasized that the
adjusted rates are the results Of
a careful study of existing REA
and PUD schedules, and repre-
sent the consolidation of over
twenty p. p. & L. schedules into
four. The revised schedule is con-
sidered an adjustment" rather
than a rate reduction. Future rate
reductions are expected to become
possible as PUD revenues increase
and operating costs are reduced.
Complete schedules Of the new adj
juSted rates are available at the
PUD offices.

$33,664 Is Years
Fire Dallaqe

The late December fire of the
Stricken Motor company raised
the city's annual fire loss for 1916
to an estimated total of $33, 1854,
according to Fire Chief Herb NAL
chow's annual report.
During the year the rural fire
losses amounted to $13,365. Calls
averaged two per month in the
city and Is rural calls for the year.
There were two false alarms.
Biggest loss in rural fires was
the Y Grocery which burned on
June Is, with a loss estimated at
$4,000. Others were the Mills
and Perkins homes that were total
losses.
Of the fires within the city only
a few accounted for losses of ST.
600 Or more. Among those were
the Babcock Oil company, the
Farm Labor camp, the Twin City
Creamery and the Todd house on
Avenue G.. Other fire losses rang
ed from one dollar up.
The record for the year was es-
tablished in July when five calls
resulted in no loss of property
Two other months had losses OF
less than 500.
With the establishment of the
rural fire district it is expected
that total losses will be consider
ably reduced.

Chamber Plans
New Departure;
City Gets Fund

Kennewick Chamber of Com
merce will. introduce a new pro-
cedure at next weeks session. In
stead of the regular business meet
ing tables will be separated in
such way as to permit groupings
of committees who will use the en-
tire time in discussing their var
ious problems.
Presiden Rolfe Tuve has asked
each committee to outline a plan
of action for he year and offer
Suggestions as to what each can
expect to accomplish. These in
turn will be amalgamated into an
overall plan for the chamber.
Secretary r. c. Rector will no.
tify all members by mail and re-
mind committee chairmen Of the
project.
At today's session members
heard a report from City Council
man Paul Richmond to the effect
that the city had been notified that
paymen will be made of $4,000
to the city from the State Devel-
opmnet Fund. Another sum of
the same amount will be paid to
the city on matching basis for
a total of 100000.
This money will be used in a
street and alley surfacing pro-
gram. More than five miles of
city thoroughfares will be covered
in the program including alleys in
the down town area and streets in
all parts of the city.
E. S. Black, superintendent of
schools, pointed out the need for
increased Junior high school space
with present facilities already
crowded. He quoted figures of
larger classes in the lower grades
that will make the present build
ing entirely inadequate in a few
years.
