TALK OF A COMBINATION TO SECURE id-rl9l'A-
TON ENDING THEIR CONTROVERSY.
Washington. Nov. &c (SpeciaD-Thcre is talk In
naval circles here Of combination OF stan and line
officers TO legislation by Congress earnestly
desired by both branches. Remembering that the
line and staff have been odds on many points for
several years. reports in the case seem untrust-
worthy at first thought, but II is said by we-in-
formed officers that the probability Is that compro-
misses will be agreed TO and that many line and
staff officers will be found working together this
winter. The present bone Of contention between
the two branches relates chiefly 20 the question Of
positive rank for staff officers. Heretofore officers
OF the line a class have opposed the passage
Of any law giving such rank TO the staff. Toward
the end Of the last session Of Congress Secretary
Herbert agreed with prominent STAFF officer that
the pending bill in Congress should be modified
as 10 give the stan rank. Nothing of this
however and measure OF benefit to either the
line or staff passed Congress.
Now 1t seems that q number of young officers OF
promotion IS particularly dark have practically de-
by Congress Of law giving 10 stan ofcers that
which they seek In return for this they expect
troduced in their behalf According to the stories
which are heard at the Navy department the
sderation Of Congress a measure similar 10 that
which favoraby reported shortly before the
in the Navy the Myer bill. 1t proposes TO trans
fer the hump 10 reserve list and bring about
officers Will urge the elimination of several objec-
tionabie features found In the bill last year notably
that which provides for selection in promotions
from the captains grade 10 the rank OF Rear-Ad-
mral They will advise however. the retention of
the feature creating the reserve list.
Some line officers say that IL members Of the
staff want positive rank they will make no objec-
ton, provided the staff viii help the line pass its
bill. They also say they are not in favor of the
reduction Of the pay of STAFF officers On the con-
trary, they would much prefer that these officers
urge on their friends in Congress that the pay Of
the line grades be increased 70 that Of stat grades

be made by one branch 10 the other IN a few d3ys
and 1t Is among the possibilities that the sUg4e--
ton will be acceptable TO bOth branches IL Is the
general belief in the Navy that it is only through
some compromise that any legislation bcnohcia! 10
