QUINLANMAKES SPECIAL STUDY OF TERRITORY Is Personal Representative of President in Gen- eral Alaska Survey In Alaska to make a general study of all Federal activities and conditions prevailing locally, Col D. J. Quinlan, U. S. Army, accom- panied by Mrs. Quinlan, arrived here today. He will remain here for a week, discussing problems of co-ordination and other subjects with local Federal agents. Col. Quinlan is making the Alas- ka trip as special representative of President Hoover as well as in his capacity as special assistant to the Chief Co-Ordinator of the United States. Hoover’s Interest Active “The President has a very keen interest in Alaska and its affairs and prosperity,” declared Col Quinlan. And that interest is not a passive one. The President wants all the information he can get regarding its problems, what- ever their nature, and can be ex- pected to lend executive assistance if necessary to solve them. Better and more efficlent busi- ness administration by closer co- ordination of the work and ac- tivities of the several Federal bu- reaus in Alaska, is one of the main administrative objectives aim- ed at by Col. Quinlan. The multi- plicity of Federal agencies in Alas- ka has inevitable led to some dupli- cation and over-lapping of work. It is the desire to eliminate as much of this sort of thing as is possible. Business Organization The United States, its territories and possessions are divided into nine co-ordination districts which are subdivided into 260 zones. In cach of these are Federal Business Associations, comprising represen- tatives of the various bureaus of the Government located in each. It is through these organizations that co-ordinated teamwork is develop- ed, duplication eliminated, and both efficiency and economy promoted Alaska is at present under the Seattle co-ordinator. It has four of the associations, one of which is Jocated in Juneau. Col. Quinlan said he hoped later to have a co- ordinator assigned to Alaska alone, and stationed at Juneau. In making his survey for the President and his studies relating to co-ordination, Col. Quinlan will cover most of the Territory. He will visit Cordova, Valdez, Seward, Anchorage, Fairbanks and Nome, and if possible, Sitka. He has considerable work in mind for the Alaska Railroad district. - In each of these places he will meet all of the Federal officers and agents, discussing their work and its rela- tion to the work of all others. Makes Two-Year Study He is not a stranger to Alaskan conditions. He has given consid- erable study to them during the past two years. Recently he wrote a bill for Delegate Sutherland which provides for turning over to the Territory the land now occupied by the Pioneers' Home at Sitka. He was a close friend of the late Gen. Wilds P. Richardson, who for many years resided in Alaska as President of the Alaska Road Com- mission. From him he acquired much information on Alaskan mat- ters and subjects of vaorius kinds. To the knowledge thus acquired he expects to add a store of informa- tion gathered personally on his present visit.
