HOSPITAL TALK HEARD BY XIV WAMANS

Mrs. Earl F. Graves, board member of the Valley Hospital Association that became defunct yesterday, talked to Kiwams Club members Monday about management details of the pres ent Valley Hospital and the pur- pose of the new Valley Hospital Association, Inc.
 The discussion on management was focused on it's most impor- tant function-that of obtaining the necessary qualified personnel. After describing the qualif; a. tions, experience, and duties of the nurses, she emphasized the present need for a trained anes- thetist. Because the hospital has had no anesthetist, no major sur gerry has been performed at the hospital for more than a year.
 Mrs. Graves stressed the inn portance of tonight's organiza- tional meeting of the Valley Hos pital Association, Inc. She urged all members and all those who wish to become members to be present at the school lunch room at pm. tonight. Board members will be elected from a slate of candidates chosen by the nomin- ating committee and from any

CARP END 8-DAY STRIKE

An eight-day strike of the An chorage AFL-Carpenters was ended Monday night when a strike committee recommendation that the Territory-wid wage dis pute be submitted to the Wage Stabilization Board for settlement was approved by overwhelming vote.
 The agreement followed the fill ing of a $5,000,00O damage suit by the Associated General Con- tractors, which charged that the strike was contrary to an agree ment signed by the Carpenters and ACC on April 26. According to ACC, the carpenters had agreed then to submit the wage dispute to WSB for settlement. @ The carpenters are asking for increases in hourly pay up to $3.70. The present wage scale is $3.14. Last December other un- ions received raises of 25 cents hourly, subject to approval of WSB, after negotiation with the ACC. These raises were recently reduced to 20 cents by authoriza- ton of WSB.

Coop Takes Swift Measures 10 Filter Debris From Wafer

It's official now that an un- usual amount of dirt has been present during the past two weeks in the city's only present water supply; but before this not-too-Secret fact could break into print the management of the Coop which owns the water system, had already taken dras- tic steps to correct the situation.
 Councilman Allan Mick called the matter to the City Councils atention last Wednesday after having been called over to the Matanuska Hotel to take look at the clogged-up pipes and drains there. The hotel, which was ap- parently hit the hardest by the accumulation of dirt in the water, had repair bills mounting into hundreds of dollars when wall board had to be removed from IA rooms, made completely useless because no water could get through the pipes. The pipes be- hind the wallboard had to be taken out and replaced with new pipes. For a time Manager John L. Sullivan thought the hotel would be forced to close down. However, by putting in filters and screen where the water line enters the hotel, further damage to the pipes was checked, even though the keg-sized filters had to have the dirt dug out of them every six or seven hours. Several fish were found in these collec- tions of derbris. Friday of last week, Sullivan reported that the filters suddenly had ceased to fill up with dirt as per previous schedule, and the water appeared to be clear.
 This clearing of the water fol- lowed immediately after the Co., Ops emergency measure last week erecting a screen weir to stop the current of Carnegie Creek where it flows into the Co., Op line. Coop Manager Roy Brock reported that this tempor- ary measure caught a lot of or ganic matter that flows through the creek, particularly at break up time. Water consumers may have noticed already a lessening of water pressure occasioned by the cutting off of the water sup ply from the creek. The water shortage during the three or four days when the Coop must rely on it's springs alone should in- convenience no one, Brock said if common sense conservation measures are followed. During this period, which should be end ed this week, the Coop will be putting in a filter plant at the Carnegie Creek tie-in, Brock ex- 'plained.

THE WATCHER
She always leaned to watch for us,
Anxious if we were late,
In winter by the window,
In summer by the gate;
And though we Knocked her tenderly,
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more
safe
Because she waited there.
Her thoughts were all so full of US,
She never could forget!
And so | think that where she is
She must be watching yet,
Waiting till we come home to her,
Anxious if we are late
Watching from heavens window,
Leaning from heavens gate.
