ALASKA COUNCIL BEGINS
ACTIVE WORK AT JUNEAU
Permanent organization of the In
terdepartmental Alaska Council was
perfected at a meeting held at
Juneau recently of appointed repres
entatives of the several Federal de
partments held in the office of
t George A. Parks, Alaska Field Ser
vice chief and chairman of the new
organization. John C. McBride, Col
lector of Customs for Alaska, was
elected vice-chairman at the meet-'
ing. Mr. McBride represents the1
Treasury Department on the Council.,
Nine regular members represent-'
ing six departments have been ap- j
pointed to the Council. These1 _» re: <
Col. James G. Steese, War Depart- i
ment; John C. McBride, Treasury
Department; William G. Stench of
Ketchikan, Department of Labor;
Charles H. Flory Department of Ag
riculture appointed from the oiest
Service; George A. Parks, Depart
ment of the Interior; A. G. Shoup.
Department of Justice; C. W.
Cheatham. Department of Agricul
ture, representing the Bureau of'
Public- Roads; Dr. C. C. Georgeson,
of Sitka, Department of Agriculture,
representing the States Relations
Service; E. P. Walker, Department
of Agriculture, appointed from the
Biological Survey. Gov. Scott C.
Bone is ex-officio member of the
Council from the Department of
Interior, and aha ex-officto lember
of all committees. Those present at
the organization meeting were:
Chairman Parks. Colonel Steise
Messrs. McBride, Merritt, Walker
and Cheatham. Walter B. Heisel, dis
bursing- officer in Field Service
headquarters, was elected as secre
tary of the Council.
Two departments functioning in
tihe Territory have not yet annouhc
ea the appointments of any repres
entatives for membership on the
Council, said Chairman Parks. These
are the Post Office Department and
the department of Commerce. Both
were requested to name a repres
entative it was stated. It was es
pecially desired to have representa
tion from the Bureau of Fisheries
owing to the importance of its work
in and to the Territory.
Notofication of the Council’s per
manent organization will be sent
both departments unrepresented in
the hope that they will name mem
bers.
The plan of organization adopted
by the Council is similar to that
followed by the Interdepartmental
Alaska Committee of Washington, of
which Mr. Parks is also chairman.
The membership is divided into
four main groups, each having its'
own Chairman. These chairman com
pose the Executive Committee, of
which the vice-chairman of the
Council is presiding officer.
The four groups are: Group 1,
transportation, communications and
mails; group 2, mineral, timber and
power resources; group 3, fisheries,
agriculture and animal resources;
group 4, public ’welfare and educa
tion. Colonel Steese was named as
chairman of the first. District For
ester Charles H. Flory of the second.
Collector McBride, fourth, and the
third group is temporarily assigned
to the Agriculture Department to se
lect its own chairman. It is expected
that later the Bureau of Fisheries
will have representation on the
Council and rpay be given the chair
manship on the third group.
No regular meeting time was fi':
ed by the Council. It was agreed
that the organization would meet a:
the call of the chairman, or in his
absence, at th$ call of the vice-chair
man. In order to have a quorum a
vaiiable at all times, each member
of the Council instructed to name
an alternate to appear for him
should he be absent from town when
meetings are called. The Council's
■headquarters are located at Juneau.
The purpose of its organization is
to make recommendations on various
subjects affecting the Territory and
the work of the Governmental de
perrments in Alaska, to co-ordinate
the activities of each, unify policies
of the bureaus and generally to sim
plify procedure in the elimination of
overlapping jurisdiction and possible
sources of conflict.
