a few possibilities. Amy one of these
methods, however, is open to criti-
cism from some source. Hence, the
man-sized problem councilmen face
in coming up with solution to the
problem that will keep everyone
happy.
Vacant Lot Problem
Another major problem in connec-
ton with the assessment program is
what to do with vacant building lots
on which homes may be constructed
later.
Unless provision is made for pay
ment of the special assessment at
this time, even though there is no
immediate plan for building and use
of the lots sewer facilities, there is
no way that an assessment can be
collected at a later date when
home might be erected.
Problems such as these are rife in
the program councilmen are called
upon to set up in completing the
financing of the sewage disposal
system locally, and a lot of study
will be required before the final
answers are determined.

VA Fund Cut Closes
4 USPHS Hospitals
With ITS Veterans

Oscar r. Ewing. Federal Sc
lcurity Administrator, disclosed
yesterday that the United States
Public Health Service is being
forced to close four Of its general
hospitals as a result Of Congress
sional cuts in Veterans Admins
Itration appropriations.
The hospitals are located in
Kirkwood, Mo-; Mobile. Ala;
Portland. Me-, and San Juan,
Puerto Rico. They will stop ad-
mitting patients within a few
days and will be converted to out
lpatient clinics as soon as pro-
visions can be made for their
present patients, Mr.. Ewing said.
Cut Of SIS Millions.
DR.. Leonard A. Scheele, surgeon
general of the Public Health Serv-
ice, said the unexpected cut
amounts to about SIS millions
and requires a reduction from $50
to 375 in the number of VA
patients cared for by the Public
Health Service. He added:
"When curtailment became nee
essary, these four hospitals were
selected because their patient load
lis made up of more veterans and
fewer Public Health Service bene-
f1ciaries than that Of any of the
remaining Public Health Service
facilities.
aside from this loss, limited
funds in fiscal year 1852 and in
our 1858 budget have made it
necessary to reduce staff in our
hospitals by nearly $50 people
during the past four months.
This additional and unexpected
reduction in available funds cam
be met, therefore. only by cur
failing our operations and by con-
Iverting the four general hospitals
with the smallest average number
of patients to outpatient clinics"
Another $50 Affected.
Another $50 employees are in
volved in the closings in addition
to the staff reductions already ef-
fected, DR. Scheele declared. A
few of the personnel will be re-
tanned to operate the outpatient
clinics and as many as possible

Patients in Public Health Serv-
ice hospitals include American
merchant seamen. officers and en-
listed men of the Coast Guard,

Auditor Disallows $5,0O0 Voucher for Expenses By Delegate Bartlett

Meeting of the Territorial board of Examiners, due because of Del egate E. l.. Bartlett's appeal of Auditor Neil Moore's disallow- ance of $5,00O voucher covering Bartlett's expenses, had not been set last week.
 Governor Gruening said the meeting will take place as soon as possible. However, Henry Roden, Territorial treasurer and a member of the three-man board was in Seattle and the date of his return could not be ascertained.
 Bartlett, who is by law given the right to appear before the board to plead his case, is in Washington, D. C.
 But it is unlikely the meeting will be delayed until he is able to appear, since a decision in his favor would make this unneces- Sary.
 In case the board believed Moore's action should be sustain ed, Bartlett's appearance to state his case would be in order. How ever, the third member of the board, Attorney General J. Ger aid Williams, already has stated a belief that the $5,000 voucher should be allowed. Williams is the boards legal advisor.

Phil R. HOldsworth of Anchorage Appointed
 Commissioner of Mines

Governor Gruening Monday an- nounced the appointment of Phil R. Holdsworth of Anchorage to be Commissioner of Mines for the Territory of Alaska.
 MT. Holdsworth succeeds Leo H. Saarela, who has resigned to take position in Anchorage with the Geological Survey.
 MT. Holdsworth was born in Grants Pass, Oregon, in 1910. He first came to Alaska in the winter of 1913-14. His father built and operated Lode Mill at the Skein- Lickner property near Moose Pass.
 He attended the University of Washington between various min ing jobs and received a Bachelor of Science degree in mining en- gineering and geology in 1887.
 He was commissioned 2nd lieu tenant in the US. Army, Philip pine Division, and was Japan csc prisoner of war after engaging in guerrilla warfare against the Japanese.
 Upon his discharge from the Army he was successively con- sulting mining engineer in Seattle; Cyanide plant foreman of the Holden Mill of Howe Sound Co.,, at Chelan, Wash; and general manager of the Independent Mine of Alaska Consolidated Mining Go. at Wasilla, Alaska.
 More recently he has been gen. eral superintendent and mining engineer of the Snowbird Mining Co. at Anchorage; project engin- eer for Birch-J Johnson-Lytle Con- tractors; and a construction engin- eer for the Corps of Engineers in Anchorage.
 MT. Holdsworth has thus had a highly varied professional ex- perience in mining and engineer ing. He has been warmly recom- mended for the commissioner of mines by variety of men promi- nent in the mining world of AL aska.
 MT. Holdsworth is married and has three children.

by the basic fertility of the par
ticular pond or lake. The job at
hand, according to Wilder is to get
production in favorable proper
tions of attractively sized game
fish rather than in terms of less de-
sirable species. Fishermen like
game fish, such as bass and picker
ell, Wilder continued. This causes
rapid removal rates from ponds
which gives an advantage to less
intensively fished species in the
competition for available food and
cover. Wilder also pointed out the
survey reveals the futility of stock
ing warm water fish in ponds and
lakes where satisfactory breeding
populations of the same species al
ready exist, or. where introduction
of additional species merely adds
to an already overcompetitive situ-
alton. In the back of the book
