ERA OF RETRENCHMENT
IN NAVY Department
Secretary Moody Thought to Be En-
deavoring to Establish Record
for Economy

Secretary Moody's ideas of retrench-
men and reform in the administration
of the Navy Department proper are
being put into execution with a rapidity-
that has set the whole clerical force
of the department by the ears.
Mr. Moody recently sent out circular
to all the principal ofiicerssof the de-
partment instructing them to reorgan-
ize their offices so that efficient clerks
would get the higher salaries. In this
circular he called attention to an act
Of Congress concerning the classification
of clerks under the executive govern
ment, which said in effect that nothing
in the act could be construed to per-
NIT the maintenance of d civil pension
list.
This language has been interpreted to
mean that aged clerks shall give way
to those having youth and activity. and,
in consequence, there have been a num-
Der of reductions in the salaries of vet
eran employees.
The clerical force of the Bureau Of
Navigation Is being completely rcorgan-
lied, and when the reorganization has
been effected the other bureaus will
have to go through the same experience
in turn.
Vacancies existing in the clerical force
OF the Navigation Bureau will not be
filed, and Mr.. Moody hopes 10 make a
still further reduction of 10 per cent
From what is said at the Navy Depart
ment, 1t is evidently the Secretary's
idea that he can run the naval esta5-
lishment very much cheaper than any of
his predecessors.
