A GENERAL NAVY STAFF.
Significance OF EayIor's Selection as
Navigation Bureau Chief.

Significance OF TayIoP's Selection as
Navigation Bureau Chief.
Plans are being formulated at the Navy
Department looking to the ordering of
a general staff composed of the ranking
officers of the service, which viii have
complete charge and supervision over all
matters of a technical character pertain
ing to the organization, government, and
equipment of the navy.
Il is stated at the department that the
recent selection By the President, at the
suggestion of Secretary Long. of Rear
Admiral Taylor to succeed Rear Admiral
CrowninshieId as chief Of the Bureau of
Navigation has a deep significance. For
many years Rear Admiral Taylor has been
an ardent advocate of the general staff
and although such a governing body would
greatly decrease the powers Of himself as
chief of the Bureau of Navigation. he viii
be the leading officer in its establishment
Secretary Long also believes in the
creation of general staff ard will lend
his support 10 the desires of Admiral Tay-
lor Although the plans for the organ
ization of the staff are still of a tentative
character. in general it is intended that
it shall consist Of distinguished officers of
the line or lighting forces of the navy. all
of tie officers in the present board on
construction and those officers who com
pose the general policy board of the
navy
The duties of the general staff will be
manifest. It viii perfect the command Of
campaigns, design vessels fer the navy,
make recommendations pertaining to the
personnel, and, IN fact, have a general
supervision over all questions OF interest
to the navy It will combine the duties
at present performed by the general pol
icy board and the board en- construction
but viii have much more power than
either of these boards.
