INSTANCES CASE OF
COMMANDER BAGLEY

Washington. ID. e.. Jan. 23.-The
Knight Board Is unable 10 agree with
Secretary Daniels that naval officers,
who lost their ships through enemy
submarine action and performed
meritorious service in connection with
such loss, should be awarded high
decorations. the Senate investigating
committee was told today by Rear-Ad-
miral Austin M knight.
Admiral Knight said that a high
decoration was not deserved unless
the sinking was accompanied by often
sive action against the enemy. He
said that in the case of Commander
Bagley. Secretary Daniels ,brother-in.
law, no decoration was recommended
sinking of the destroyer Jacob Jones
as Commander Bagley did not en-
gage the enemy. A Navy Cross was
recommended for the officer, he said,
for good seamanship displayed in TAX
ing off the crew and passengers of the
torpedoed British steamer Drama
Commander Bagley was not recon-
mended by his immediate superior, he
said. for any decoration in connection
with the sinking OF the Jacob Jones.
Officers whose vessels were tor
pedoed. but who by good seamanship
and discipline in saving their ships,
earned the ID. S. NJ, Admiral knight
declared
"The case OF ship destroyed by a
enemy against which she had no op
portunity to fire a shot," said Admiral
knight, lis in the opinion OF the
Board, widely different from the case
Of Lawrence and Perry. cited by Secre
tary Daniels in his letter of January
3rd TO Senator Paige.
Lawrence owes his fame not to his
conduct after the loss Of his ship,
when he was helpless and dying, but to
the heroic spirit he manifested
throughout the engagement. IL was
before-not after--the loss of his ship
that he uttered the words that have
made his name immortal and which
ARE quoted by Secretary Daniels as es-
tablishing precedent for his action in
certain cases
Perry is. noted in history not for
the loss Of the Lawrence, but for the
indomitable spirit with which he re-
sumed the fight on the Niagara and
for the courage and intelligence with
which he lead the almost defeated feet
to victory"
Admiral Knight said Secretary Dan
iels did not furnish the Board with any
policy to guide it in making its recon-
mendations and the Board did not ask
for one, as the members did not con
slider it was necessary.
