Maj. Goldman, 50
Years in u. ). Service
Fish-WiIdIife Service
Senior Biologist Took
Government Job at 18

Maj. E. A. Goldman, senior biolo-
eist of the Fish and Wildlife Serv-
ice, Interior Department., tomorrow
will round out his 50th year in the
Government service.
At noon group Of his associates
will stage party for him at the
Agriculture Department cafeteria.
1t was on March l, 1892, that Maj.
Goldman, then 18 years old, re-
ceived his first appointment to a
Government job. He has continued
in the same work, but the work has
moved about from one department
to another.
He Is recognized as one of the
eountrys leading mammalogists. an
authority on habits and habitats of
our native animals. When he came
to Washington to start his career
1t was to take a post with what
then was called the division of
ornithology and mammalogy in the
Agriculture Department. Later he
found himself in the Biological
Survey.
Proud of Mexican Treaty.
Finally he turned up where he
Is now, which Is in a comfortably
cluttered Office reached by for
hidden corridor lined with mysteri-
ously labeled packing cases in the
National Museum.
His knowledge of Mexico led to
one of Maj. Goldman's proudest
achievements-the treaty protecting
the lives of migratory birds and
animals, similar to the one long
in effect between this country and
Canada. It had been hanging fire
for a dozen years or so, Maj. Gold
man said, before he was sent to
Mexico City in 1887 to aid the State
Department in the negotiations.
And in 1887 the treaty was signed.
Maj. Goldman's various survey
trips have taken him over a con-
siderable portion Of the United
States. too. And, during the dig
ging Of the Panama Canal, he was
in Panama for two seasons, making
surveys of wild life there.
Served With A. E. F.
His military title dates back to
the First World War, when Maj.
Goldman served a year and a half
overseas with the A. E. F.
Born in Illinois, Maj. Goldman
was taken to California when young
and still maintains his official resi-
dence there. A resident of Wash
ington for more than half a CEN
tury, he lives at 2702 Seventeenth
street NE, with his wife.
