concentrations of the Naval Board

Secretary Long has finally settled the
question Of chaplains' uniform, which
has been before a naval board for sew
eral weeks. \ controversy has long
waged within the service regarding the
necessity OF having chaplains wear a
uniform. Some Of the chaplaius de-
sired il, others thought their influence
would be greater if they had no official
garb other than the style of apparel
usual TO clergymen The disSensiOns
led to a discussion as to whether chap
lains were really needed in the navy.
The whole matter has been disposed Of
by Secretary Longs approval Of the
boards recommendations and here
after officers Of that grade viii possess
two coats. one of the usual blue frock
pattern and the other OF the white scrv-
ice pattern. The gold stripes on the
sleeves of the ordinary naval uniform

affixed TO the collar. The frock coat is
of the general style of the garment
worn by other officers, except that
black buttons and black stripes on the
sleeves VIII be worn instead of gold
buttons and gold stripes. The frocN
coat will also differ from that Of other
officers by being single breastedF The
