Navy Secretary's New Job

Secretary of the Navy Paul Morton,
whose intent to resign from the Cabi-
net was announced recently, will be-
come president of the New York Sub
way System at a salary equal TO that
of the President of the United States.
He will remove from Washington to
New York city and assume control of
the subway transportation as soon as
President Roosevelt releases him and
appoints his successor.
The latest gossip concerning the
scretaryship of the navy centers
around the name of MIR. Charles j.
Bonaparte, of Baltimore, who will
become secretary of the navy when
Secretary Paul Morton resigns, on
July !. Mr.. Morton issued a formal
statement yesterday afternoon an
nouncing that OH July l he would re-
sign the navy portfolio to associate
himself with the Ryan syndicate in
New York, which owns some 300
miles of crosstown lines. and which
intends to compete next fall with the
Belmont syndicate for building vast
network of subway lines. Later in
the day, when President Roosevelt
was asked whom he would appoint to
succeed Nj. Morton, he smiled and
announced that he had selected Mr..
Bonaparte. of Baltimore.
