NAVY MORALE
LOW, STATES
ADMIRAL
designations Increase and
Dissatisfaction Rife
Over Low Pay.

designations are increasing and
the morale of the navy is lower
than at any time In years. Rear
Admiral Thomas Washington. chief
of the Bureau Of Navigation. told
the House Naval Affairs Committee
during his testimony on the naval
appropriation bill yesterday.
The reason for this condition, he
declared. is that the pay has not
been increased as the cost of living
has advanced. To raise the per-
sonnel to the necessary strength. he
added. the pay of both officers and
men must be increased.
Admiral Washington denied that
the lowered morale was in any way
due to the circulation of Soviet or
Bolshevist propaganda among the
enlisted men.
The ADMIRAL recommended that
the strength of the navy for the
next fiscal year be fixed at 143,157.
The number of men now in the
service is 1O1,6so. he said, and this
number will be reduced by 10000
whose enlistments expire before
July 1.
''Enlistments are not up to ex-
pectations because of the low navy
pay" the committee was told, "and
general dissatisfaction has resulted.
Better opportunities are offered for
higher pay in the merchant marine
and other walks of industry.
About fourteen per cent of the
regular navy officers have resigned
since the signing of the armistice.
The number of designations ac-
cepted is 4s3 and sixty-six are now
pending.
Admiral Washington recommend =
ed the operation of a reserve of
26,954. Men in this branch of the
service would be required to serve
on active duty not less than twelve
months nor more than eighteen.
Then they would be subject to call

Continuation of the present sys-
tenn is a crime against the peoples
of Eastern and Central Europe he
said. The present system of inter-

gamble which has resulted in imitation

a worldwide boomerang. The present
system will result in a continuation

tions and Bolshevism
Everybody desires restoration of
international trade to its pre-war
standard. but this is impossible un-
less we restore pre-war exchange
