NEW HEM OF JUC.
MAJOR MALCOLM ELLIOTT IS
YOUNG IN YEARS BUT IS OLD
IN EXPERIENCE
Major Malcolm Elliott, Corps of
Engineers, formerly district engineer
for the New Orleans District, has been
assigned to duty with the Alaska Road
Commission as its President, reliev
ing Major Douglas H. Gillette who
will continue on the Commission as
Engineer Officer, it was first officially
announced at Juneau last week. War
Department orders covering the
change were issued early this month
and Major Elliott probably will arrive
within 30 days to assume his new
duties, Major Gillette said in making
the announcement.
The new President of the Commis
sion is a veteran of the Spanish
American War altho he is but 46 years
of age. He served in that war with a
California volunteer regiment and lat
er with a regular army outfit. He
also served thru the World War and
attained the rank of Lieut. Colonel in
the Engineer Corps of the National
Army. He was commissioned major
in the regular army in 1920.
With Major Gillette and Major John
C. Gotwals, former Engineer Officer
of the Commission, Major Elliott was
assigned to duty in Louisianna last
Spring and co-operated with Governor
Parker of that State in flood relief
work. He had charge of field head
quarters at Baton Rouge.
Col. James G. Steese, whom Major
Gillette succeeded as President of the
Alaska Road Commission will leave
New York for Columbia, South Ameri
ca, in a short time, the latter said.
He is now general manager ofxthe
Gulf Oil Co., of South America in the
Columbia field. The Company con
trols several million acres of oil land
under consession and leases and is
launching a gigantic development pro
ject which Col. Steese will head. It
involves the construction of 40 miles
of pipe line, wharves, warehouses and
plants of various kinds. The Colonel’s
headquarters will be in Bogota, the
capital of Coulmbia. He will fly there
from the coast.
Alfred Rosness, well known local
resident, departed for Seattle Satur
day a passenger on the S. S. Alaska.
