YOUNGER COMMANDERS.

The New York Evening Post COM
ments as follows:
President Taft's message to congress
last week, urging the passage of the
navy personnel bill, drew attention
again to what has long been an ano-
maly in our service. We mean the
relatively high ages at which officers
OF our navy become captains and ad-
mirals. This is due to over-sIow pro-
motion by seniority, which again is
caused by congestion in the lower
grades. The average age of naval
captains is at present 55 and of rear
admirals soy. Mr.. Taft made some
comparisons with conditions in other
navies to show how much younger
their officers reach command grades
Thus the average age OF English can
tains is A, German As. Japanese a.
though the French ARE nearly as old
as ours, 81. Rear -admirals in foreign
navies are from four to ten years
younger than in our own. The effect
OF the measure which President Taft
endorses would be to cause our officers
to reach the rank of captain at the
age of As or AZ, and that of rear-ad-
miral at 81 or SIS.
The case for Fastening the pronno-
tion Of good officers, and for doing
away with what the president calls
the absurd system of expecting that
every officer will pass through all the
grades and retire as a rear admiral,
seems very strong. 1t is not that men
of 55 canpot be efficient captains. or
that we do not have good commanders
of a squadron at so, but that their
training under existing conditions ia
not what 1t ought to be. Adequate
experience in command is not had by
our older officers until just abous the
time 1t becomes necessary for them to
retire for age. This is certainly an
abnormal condition for the line of the
navy. BY more rapid promotion which
Implies, of course, the retirement of
many officers in the lower grades. who
now block the way we should seek |
to get men who could serve for 1--WE
or six years as captains or ten years
as flag officers. Skill and practice are
most OF all indispensable for command
at sea, and we ought not to persist in
a system which so soon puts skill and |
practice on the shelf for age. This is

POOR TAFT.

Chicago must have designs on the
president.
When he speaks in that city at the
Irish Fellowship clubs banquet on
March H. he will stand on twelve
square feet of ''ould sod."-which has
been shipped to America from Queens
town.
But that isn't the worst Of 1t. There
win be blarney stones to burn-and
he's going to be fed on gemsbok.
That hasn't anything to do with
Edward Box, or The Ladies' Home
Journal. It is some new kind of a
creature Theodore Roosevelt and his
son found in East Africa.
This particular specimen which is
to be fed to President Taft was cap

was slaughtered in Egypt, and then
shipped In cold storage around the
cataracts OF the Nile, through the des-
