Cmtlr. Bob Engrain
Speaker At Rotary
Commander Bob Engram, Main
tenance and Operations Officer,
District Public Works, spoke be
before the Rotary Club Tuesday at
the weekly meeting of the club.
Fnoram spoke mainly on the
work connected with the District
Public Works. He dealt with the
contract awards from that depart
ment, for work performed on the
Naval Station. He expressed the
desire for more local contractors
to turif in. bids on the jobs offered.
“What we do on the Naval Station
affects the economy of Kodiak,”
he said.
“Jobs in the past have been done
mostly by outside contractors,’’
Engram said. “The Navy would
like to lean more heavily on local
help, to your and our mutual
benefit,” the officer stated. He
said there had been only one bid
der on some jobs in the past. To
make it competetive requires two
or three.

where local bidders have done
work on the Bast, the speaker
pointed out. Instances where work
was done by local men has proven
very satisfactory.
He asked the question, “Why is ,
it there have been so few local
bidders,” He answered his own
question by saying, “Many of the I
jobs have involved large sums of 1
money, and could not be handled j
by the small operator.” He stated, i
however, he thought some cooper- 1
ation among the business men and
people of Kodiak, might make it j
possible for local operators to !
handle the jobs. Your economy
would thereby be affected, and
both the Navy and Kodiak would
be mutually benefited.
The views on many of the
matters discussed in his speech,
Engram said, were purely person
al. “I have k great interest in Ko
diak,” he said, “and strong con
victions along these lines. I would
like to see a closer linking of the
Naval Station with Kodiak’s utili
ties,” he stated. He cited as one
instance in which the two could
work toigether, would be in some
of the power supply from KEA
going to assist during peak loads
on the Station. “Working togeth
er,” he said, “ could result in
cheaper power to the residents of
