J.H. ROSSETER TO
| QUIT SHIP BOARD
Director Of Operations d.
vision Asks to Be Re-
lieved December |.

Considerable speculation is being
INDUCED in by those interested in
the Shipping Board over who will
succeed Henry NJ. Robinson, one Of
two commissioners in the Shipping
Board who resigned September Is.
1t is officially announced that the
successor will not be named until
President Wilson returns from his
trip. No names have, been brought
to the front in this connection, but
IT is generally known that Mr.. Rob
!hson's successor will be a Pacific
Coast man and a Republican.
II is also admitted that the man
who succeeds Mr.. Robinson will not
be a shipping man. but probably a
big business man.
Mr.. Robinson was formerly the
representative OF the Shipping
Roard at Paris. He has only been
in Washington a short time, living
at 202s Connecticut avenue.
Another who will resign from the
Shipping Board is J. II. Rosseter,
director OF division OF operations.
He has asked to leave December !.
II is announced that a naval officer
probably will be named to take his
place.
Both Mr.. Rosseter and Mr.. Robin
son are California men.

Officers Think Daniels
Will Urge Wage Raise

offcers and men of the army and
navy confidently expect that Secre-
tary Of the Navy Daniels, who re-
turned yesterday from his Pacific
trip. will urgently recommend TO Con-
gress the necessity OF increasing the
pay of the officers and men of the
services, who are vainly trying to
make both ends meet on pay rates
ests blished eleven years ago. II ~
believed that Mr.. Daniels action will
take the form OF recommending the
passage OF the Stiness bill. recently
introduced into the House, the pas
sage of which was strongly urged on
Saturday by Secretary OF War Baker.
IN letter to the Chairman Of the
House Military Committee
The Washington herald., 1919-09-22
DANIELS BACK;
ON JOB TODAY
Secretary Takes Only Day S
Rest Before ResWning
Charge of Dept.

Secretary of the Navy Josephus
Daniels, who has been with the
Pacific fleet for about six weeks
returned to Washington this even
ing from Seattle.
Mr.. Daniels will resume charge
at the Navy Department today and
meantime devoted yesterday to rest
One of the special objects of Mr.
Daniels in visiting the West coast
was to observe personally where
the navy establishment needed
strengthening all the way up from
the Panama Canal to Puget Sound
The most important of his objects
where a new primary base for the
fleet should be located.
"On these questions" he said, 81
shall have to make a report first
to Congress"
The opinion Is still as strong here
as it was before Daniels went out
West that the great naval base OF
the Pacific fleet will be at Sar
Francisco. 1t is known that the
Naval Affairs Committee of the
House is anxious to get a report
from Secretary Daniels and 1t also
probably will call him before II for
the expression of his opinions al
length.
The news that Secretary Daniels
had arrived was soon known here
and he had many visitors notwith-
standing his day of rest. His two
sons also came here to see him
Lieut. Josephus Daniels. jr.. NJ. c.
who Is secretary and treasurer OF
the Raleigh News and Observer
and Jonathan Daniels, who came
here from Richmond.
