PEARY COMMANDER
Secretary Meyer Says Right
Title for Explorer is
" Civil Engineer"

WASHINGTON. ID. C.. Feb. IL
Antagonism TO the Hale and Allen
bills, which propose To, give the rank
OF rear admiral to Commander
Robert f. Peary, and retire him on
full pay, was shown by sub commit
tee of the house committee on naval
affairs when the six members OF that
body today voted unanimously against
bestowing that honor upon Peary.
Commander" Peary's naval record
was given 10 the committee In let
ter from Secre tary or the Navy Meyer.
In which was contained the infofma-
ton that he should be designated as
civil engineer" and not "comman'
der" The secretary spoke of Com
mander" Peary's discovery of the pole
as self imposed eut most COM
mendable task" He said that Peary's
various exploring expeditions cannot
be regarded as having been conduct
ed for a strictly military or naval pur-
pose, and for this reason il seems IN
appropriate to center upon him title
for which his previous education.
training and service have not fitted
him."
While the members of the commit
tee might look with some f7vor 10

expressed themselves as wholly
against any Plan of Hpensioning' MN
