porarily by the commander-in-chief and

posed in an amendment to the naval ap-
preparation bill which has been adopted

may not be outranked by visiting .oreign-
ers when the international fleet gathers
for the Panama canal cruise.

ment to abolish the naval "plucking
beard" and authorize the President to
restore officers retired by the board 10
