Stejneger Will Take
Decoration Under Bill
Signed by President
Curator Of Biology at
Museum to Receive
Honor From Norway

DR.. Leonhard Stejneger, head GU
rator of biology of the United States
National Museum, yesterday was
given authority in a bill signed by
President Roosevelt to accept the
decoration of Commander of the
Royal Norwegian Order of Saint
Olav in recognition of his scientific
work
The decoration already has been
awarded by the Norwegian gov
eminent and is in the hands of the
State Department. 1t is to be
conveyed to DR.. Stejneger by the
department when it receives official
notice the bill has been signed An
act of Congress was necessary, it
is pointed out, for any officer of
the United States Government to
receive a decoration from a foreign
government. Back in 1906 DR..
Stejneger was made knight, first
class, in the order in which he now
is to become a commander
DR.. Stejneger, who lives at 1472
Belmont street NV, is a native
of Norway and has been head
curator of biology at the museum
since 1911. He will be 88 years old
October 80
DR.. Stejneger, who has been on
scientific expeditions to various
parts of the world, came to this
country in 1881, already having
distinguished record as a scientist.
In 1928 he went on a natural
history expedition to Bering Island
and Kamchatka, collecting for the
National Museum. From 1884 to
1889 he was assistant curator of
birds at the museum and in the
latter year was made curator of
reptiles. Although long past the
retirement age, DR.. Stejneger has
been retained in his present post
by presidential order in recognition
OF his unusual scientific ability.
Scientists in recent years have
named newly discovered reptiles in
honor of DR.. Stejneger. He long
has been prominent in many sci
entific organizations and is the au-
thor of numerous scientific volumes
and has written hundreds of zoolog-
ical papers for scientific journals.
