curacy of gun fire surpassed all other
ships of the fleet by the greatest mar
gin ever achieved since target practice
was inaugurated in the navy. As one
ranking officer has said: "The Texas II
in class by herself"
Naval Officers Rcsentful.
There is. accordingly, bitter comment
throughout the service that the COM
mand Of this superb ship should now
fall 70 the lot of Captain Blue, who
leaves the Bureau Of Navigation to re-
ceivc il. Very naturally the present
Secretary of the Navy wished TO recon-
pense by any means in his power the
only naval officer in the entire service
who has consistently upheld his policies
for the navy, If such they may be
called, and has steadfastly stood be
tween the Secretary and Congress. the
press and the country, lending the Sec
retary's unmilitary administration OF
the department the official sanction and
approval IL so desperately needed from
the first.
1t was Admiral Blue who testified be-
fore Congress that the fleet was up to
the highest point of efficiency, when
documentary evidence from Rear Ad-
miral Fiske and Rear Admiral Fletcher
60 the direct contrary was on file with
the department. 1t will be recalled,
too. that Rear Admiral Blue testified
that the ships of the navy were fully
manned, nay. that some of them had an
excess of complement, when, as mat
ter Of fact. the commander IN chief had
submitted a suppressed report giving IN
detail the dangerous shortages.
Then Fiske was Relieved.
Rear Admiral Fiske was relieved
from his high Office as chief aid to
the Secretary for daring TO tell the
truth concerning the unprepared con-
dition of the navy. Commander Yates
Stirling was superseded as commander
of the submarine fiotilla for daring TO
tell Congress the actual condition of
the undersea craft. Rear Admiral Blue
formerly commanded the little 1000
ton gunboat Yorktown; he was after
ward. for a short time, executive otflcer
of the cruiser South Carolina. He has
never seen service OF any kind or IN
any capacity on a first class ship. Yet
in return for services rendered, the
Secretary Of the Navy now bestows on
him supreme command of one of the
finest and latest superdreadnoughts IN
the feet
Captain John Hood. retiring COM
mander Of the Texas, could ably and
brilliantly discharge any responsibility
within the gift of the department. His
successor, Rear Admiral-now Captain
Blue. has yet TO prove, in the opinion
Of naval officers, his capacity to dis
charge any responsibility whatever.
His appointment is further notice to
the service that politics rather than
efficiency are the means to promotion
in his refusal to recognize the navy
as military organization, where pro-
motion attends the extreme of self
sacrifice, hard work and devotion to
duty.

What he did not know was that

She has been bought and paid for. 1t
is a touching story. When Geraldine
was only six months old a dark man

a native of the West Coast. He caught
poor Geraldine and sold her for red

After the war broke out. the trader
