NAVY.
Whether or not The American naval
mission to Brazil will be continued be-
yond the term of the present four
year contract, which will expire next
November, is the subject of consider
able discussion in naval circles. From
all indications. 1t is expected that the
Brazilians will favor the extension of
the contract. but it is hardly likely
than any activity along this line will
be taken until after the presidential
election. which will be held in March.
Probably the most promising candi-
date for the presidency of this South
American republic is DIR. Washington
LuiZ, former governor of San Paulo,
who, in view of his strong convictions
FOR maintaining small. efficient
Navy, would in the event of his cleo
ton to the Presidency of Brazil, de-
sire that the American naval mission
remain at Rio. Dr. Luiz has high
opinion of the ability of Rear Admiral
Carl T. VOgelgesang, who organized
the mission and served at its head
until about year ago, at which time
ne returned to this country and was
assigned to the command of the bat
tleShtD division of the scouting fleet
Should DR.. LUZ be returned victor
at the March election, it is quite pos
sible that he would request the re-
detail of Admiral Nogelgesang as
head of the mission. The latter, how
ever, 1t Is understood, prefers his as
signment with the fleet to remain at
sea. Extension of the contract will
necesSitate a number of changes to
be made in the personnel of the mis-.
sion, as the tours of duty of several
officers win have expired by next No
