Findings. Of the court of inquiry on
the west coast destroyer disaster Il,
holding. eleven officers for. general
court martial, as announced by Sec
retary DENLY, cansed little. surprise
among officers in the department
Throughout the service there has
been q. feeling, almost a conviction.
that there would be no "whitewash"
applied, but that the investigation
would go to the bottom of the mat
ter, probably the worst peace-time
disaster tn-'tfe Navy's history: - So
that this action did not imply that
the court Of inquiry believed all of
the men who VIII be court.martialxd
are guilty The court martial will
serve the: double :purpose Of .nxIng
tho responsibility On those guilty and
ible an opportunity to clear their rec
ords Of any stigma.
The report received by the Secre-
tary from the commander in chief Of
the battle fleet was a telegram which
merely gave the names of the off,
and the personnel OF the court that
will try them The. record OF. the
original court will be held on the
west coast for use In the cpurt- mar
,tial. but ita In. understood that. the
summary Of the courts findings will
be made, pHb1ic- On llfe WEST 0oast. :.

Implicated, It -is generally believed
that those. officers held most vitality
responsible for the inexplicable dis
aster in which seven destroyers were
piled on the rocks will be shown little
