STATUS OF NAVAL OFFICERS.
The Positions of Machinists and
DOntsNainS Defined.

The Secretary of the Navy has received from
the Attorney General opinion ON the question
of whether machinists are line staff officers,
and also whether boatswains and gunners were
line officers. The opinion fixes the status oi
machinists as of the staff and boatswains and
gunners as of the line The opinion says:
81 think boatswans and gunners not I'M
properly classed in the regulations as officers
OF the line and that they properly be given
the s.ar upon their uniforms The machinist has
existed in the Navy for some time of course,
and yet for no great period he has been a
rated petty officer. The personnel act of this
year creating the Office of warrant machinist
shows plainly that Congress did not intend to
place the machinists in its own list of lire Of
fcers, for il repeated that list in section T. and
omitted them. They had previously been con-
nected with the engineer corps or its business
"a staff or special corps no part of which had
been exercising military command.
''The personnel bill has been regarded as ipao
facto transferring all the officers of that corps
to the line of command. As these machinsts do
not appear 10 have previously exercised military
command, ] think that before they to be
held to command, and others, including senior
officers held to be under obligations to obey
them, something positive TO that effect should
be produced from the personnel act or from the
.;eneral nature of their duties elsewhere. The
presumption is the other way and l find nothing
to overcome il.
