ROBINSON NOW IN CHARGE
OF NENANA POWER PLANT
City Electrician Frank 0. Robin
son assumed charge of the Nenana
power plant this morning, in addi
tion to his other duties following
formal action by the city council at
a special meeting of the aldermen
last night. Engineer Earl Young,
who was in charge of the plant un-;
der Superintendent of Public Utili
ties Henshaw, has severed his con-1
nection with the city and no one will
be appointed to succeed him. it be
ing the plan of the new regime to
have more of the repair work done
in future by the Commission shops.
The resignation of H. C. Henshaw
as city clerk and magistrate was ac
cepted by the council last night, but j
Mr. Henshaw will continue in the
sendee of the city until his sue- ■
cessor Burdett Tunison, has famil
iarized himself with the work and
the rush of month-end business is
over. The appointment of Mr. Tuni
son was ratified by vote last night
and he assumed his duties today a5
city clerk, magistrate, tax collector
and accountant for the public util
ities. The office of superintendent of
public Utilities was abolished at a
previous meeting.
Dr. J. H. Romig appeared before
the council in connection with the
’ effort which is being made by the
f aldermen to keep the Government
■ hospital open. The doctor stated that
• it is the apparent intention of the
Commission authorities to close the
' institution shorly, and he suggested.
' in the event the hospital is closed,
that the council urge the lailroad
authorities to keep the equipment in
tact until such time as plans can
be formulated for reopening of the
hospital. Hope was expressed by the
doctor that the council would be
able to convince the Commission of
the need of a hospital permanently
at this point, for the accomodation
of patients from surrounding dis
tricts, who represent approximately
fifty per cent of the number re
ceiving treatment at the hospital.
1 The other fifty per cent is divided
between the town of Nenana and
the railroad about equally.
The doctor expressed regret that
territorial funds are not available
■ for hospital work. Hospitals, he
• pointed out, are just as much need
ed in the territory as are schools
and should receive financial aid.
He thought the Nenana hospital es
pecially deserving of support in view
of the large area directly tributary
to the institution, and the fact that
the city of Nenana is giving the
hospital free light, heat and water,
amounting to nearly $4,000 a year.

ippeared fcefore the council to in
'orm the members that there is a
novement on foot along the lower
ranana and Yukon rivers to keep ,
;he hospital open for the benefit i
>f tributary communities, and he i
idvised that the city cooperate with
he various communities with a view
:o presenting a united request for:
favorable action.
The council will address a letter
mmediate'y to the Commission au
horities at Anchorage, explaining
he situation in detail and request- j
ng that the hospital, if closed, be
eft in such condition that it can be
•eopened and placed on an efficient'
oasis without delay.
Mayor Frank Teufel read a let
:er he had received from W. F.
rhompson, Fairbanks publisher, of
fering to stage an airplane exhibi
:ion in N’enana in connection with
he Fourth of July celebration. The!
i
etter will be turned over to Chair- ■
nan Joe O’Connor, of the celebra- j
:ion committee and, in the mean
:ime, the council will make a survey
of the city park reserve, in the !
southeastern part of town, with a!
dew to putting it in condiion for
ose as a landing field and ball
oark.
It was suggested that the council
ippropriate a sufficient amount to
ourchase drums and several horns
leeded to put the N'enana band on
t musical footing but action was de
’erred until Thursady night, at
vhich time leaders of the band
novement will be asked to meet
.vith the council for the purpose of
•xplaining just what is needed. The
‘entiment of the council was in fa
,or of giving the band all the sup
>ort possible.
In response to an advertisement
•ailing for bids for the removal of
ishes from the city power plant,
'our proposals were received as fol
ows: Cyriele Verhaeghe $72 per
nonth; C. N. Christien $75; George
dupprich $75; Pete Schmidt $90.
["he contract, which calls for the re
noval of the ashes at frequent in
ervals and distribution about the
•ity as directed by the street com
nittee, was awarded to Verhaeghe,
he lowest bidder.
Former Councilman Tom Smith
iddressed the council on the ques
ion of reorganization of utilities
"orces and expressed the hope that *
he present council would look care
'ully into any changes, always with
i view to safeguarding the interests
>f the city and the efficiency of
he utilities. He was assured that
he matter of reorganization had
>een given careful consideration and
hat the council was of the unan
tnous opinion that the changes al
eady decided upon would work out
atisfactorily.
