DENNY AND M'CARL
|. FRICTION GROWING
Interference in Navy Affairs
May Bring Request for
''ShOWdoWn."

The question of how far the author
ity of Controller General McCarl le-
gally extends into the administration
OF the Navy Department probably
will be carried to Attorney General
Daugherty for determination.
Further instances Of what Secretary
DENLY recently termed the inter
ference by the controller generals
office came to light today in publica-
tion OF instructions sent by ii to
naval disburslng officers. A blunt state
ment in these instructions that GER
tain formal orders of the Navy De-
partment must not be followed is ex-
peced to lead Mr.. DENLY to ask for
a showdown on the whole subject
Many officers and enlisted men have
complained to the Navy Department
as result Of decisions of the con-
troller general, who is declared by
some of the complainants to have in
effect reduced pay despite the specific
provisions of law. One decision was
said TO have overruled previous
opinion by the Court of Claims. An
other was said to have forced a
waiver of the annual allowance of
5130 made to reserve officers when
ordered to the active list.
Secretary DENLY recently invited Mr.
McCarl to join him in the request for a
legal decision on the points of issue be-
tween them, but it was said at the
Navy Department today that there
had been no response
