ADMIRAL W HQ |S RECRUITING
 THE NAVY
tBy United press)

WASHINGTON, May 10. - More power" is just now about the most pressing of the navys problems. With the rapid increase in fighting ships the question of finding men - suit able men - to man them is becoming more and more serious.
 The big job of raising 4o.00o TO- cruits, and that in the very near flu ture, is up to Rear Admiral Leigh C. Palmer. chief of the bureau Of navi- gation. This bureau has to do with all matters of personnel, present and prospective.
 Moving pictures, cartoons, placards, "open door" recruiting stations, brass bands. and all forms of publicity and eXhortation, are among the means Ad- miral Palmer is employing to fill up , the ranks. Incidentally, a seductive $5 a month salary increase, which will be urged on congress, for the navy's enlisted men, is expected to prove a great stimulus to recruiting.
 The new "open door" policy. chiefly advocated by Admiral Palmer, where by loo blueiackets are to Ee annually admitted to the Annapolis cadet aca- demy to become fullfledeed officers. now offers a further and very pow erful - inducement for enlistng.
 The chief of the bureau of nayiga- tion, beside being one of the most universally popular officers in the ser vice, is fulfilling earlier predictions Of his old commanders.
 He is we'll above the average and will develop to be an efficient officer in the higher grades" said Admiral Winslow, then a commander. When Palmer was a lieutenant, Admiral Pot ter said of him: He is the most thoroughly proficient officer of his rank have ever served with"
 q consider him among the best of his contemporaries" reported Captain Sims, when Palmer commanded a de stroyer of his command
