IS DISTRICT EHCINEER
For the past three years Major John
C. Gotwalls, for a number of years
first assistant to Col. J. G. Steese on
the Alaska Road Commission, has oc
cupied the position of district en
gineer for the St. Louis district, hence
the appearance a few days ago of his
name in connection with the Mississ
ippi flood rescue work.
The result of the floods has been to
| call practically the entire Engineering
Board of the Federal government to
! the South, including Major Gotwals
and other district engineers, to grap
! pie with the immediate problem and
find a way, if possible, to prevent a
recurrence of the disaster.
The clipper ship Silver Wave, in
port the other day en route to Nome,
is a new vessel having been built to
replace the former Silver Wave, of
Arctic trading fame, which was
| wrecked.
