NAVY RETIREMENT UP TO
SECRETARY BY RULING

IT is within the lawful discretion
of the Secretary of the Navy to de-
termine whether retired officer
shall be given an examination for re-
appointment to the active list, and
even If such examination is held, the
President is not required to appoint
him to Office.
An opinion to this effect has been
furnished the President by Acting
Attorney-General Seymour The ques-
ton arose over the demand of Capt.
John Gardner Quinby, retired, for ap-
pointment to the grade and rank of
rear admiral on the active list. Cap
tain Cuinhy based on his demand on
an act of August %. 1916. that he lie
placed on the active list as rear ad-
miral to take rank next after Rear
Admiral Thomas S. Rogers.
Captain Quinby claims that the
statute requires the Secretary of the
Navy to establish an examining hoard
to test his fitness for the Office and
requires the President. if he passes
such an examination, to appoint him
Seymour's opinion holds that if the
act required the President to appoint
as active officers of the navy the
individuals whom it names. it would
te unconstitutional, adding that he
does not believe its provisions are
mandatory.
