NAVAL PERSONNEL BILL.
Col. Roosevelt Believes in Keeping Officers
and Men OF Best Possible Grade.

New York, Nov. Coin the December
number of the North American Review
Gov.-Elect Roosevelt publishes a
strong plea for the naval personnel
bill Col. Roosevelt describes the state
of friction between the line officers and
the engineers which he found existing
after he became assistant secretary of
the navy and the steps taken to devise
means for ending that condition of at
fairs.
The measure is the result of the con-
sidera ton given to this question by a
board containing line and engineer Of
ficers. The principal adopted by the
board as the basis for the measure was
that both branches of the service
should be amalgamated so that the
American naval officer hereafter shall
be essentially a fighting engineer. He
says that the amounts paid by the
United States government to the Off
GERS of the navy are less than those
paid to corresponding ranks in the
army and that the new bill proposes TO
correct that anomaly.
1T is useless says Col. Roosevelt,
ito spend millions of dollars in building
perfect fighting machines, unless we
make the personnel which is to handle
these machines equally perfect. We
have an excellent navy now: but we
can never afford to relax our efforts to
make it better still. Next time. we
may have to face some enemy far more
formidable than Spain. In my judg-
ment, the personnel bill will markedly
increase the efficiency of our already
efficient officers
