Major Galloway wrote extensively for technical publications, especially for the American Society of Civil Engineers. He was signally honored by that Society in 1940, when he was made an honorary member and also was awarded the Thomas Fitch Rowland prize for his paper on "The Design of Rock-Fill Dams."
He served for some years as president of the Board of Directors of the California School of Mechanical Arts, and he was a member of the Astro- nomical Society of the Pacific, the Society of Military Engineers, and the Seismological Society of America.
Much interested in the early history of the West and its railroads, he was a member of the California Historical Society, serving as a director at the time of his death. He was a charter and life member of the Commonwealth Club; an honorary member of the Bohemian Club and a long-time member of the Hillside Club of Berkeley.
Major Galloway is survived by two daughters, Mrs. E. Ronald Foster of Berkeley and Mrs. Alice Wilder of Oakland; three grandchildren, John Douglass Foster and the Misses Margaret Ellen and Rosemary Foster, also of Berkeley. He also leaves a brother, Mason Galloway of Cupertino. Mrs. Galloway had passed away about 1 8 months before his death.
The national publication of the American Society of Civil Engineers said editorially, in referring to Major Galloway: "No civil engineer on the Pa- cific Coast has enjoyed a more secure place in the esteem and affection of his fellows." Aubrey Drury
