neerS, these two issues being regarded
in the department as being as veX-
atious as a general revision of the
Army single list.
1t was suggested this week that in
any revision of the single list the de-
liberations should be founded on right
and justice, and that there should be q
determined effort. regardless of what
ii may bring to those who are not
interested in, and who are opposed to,
an alteration in the existing conditions.
The determining factor which will
enter largely in the study of this ques-
ton, which is now being made by the
personnel section of the general staff,
will be the Contentment of personnel,
but as pointed out in these columns
recently, the acquisition of Satisfac-
ton by one group of officers will in
evitably transfer discomfort to another
group of officers, who would, as result
of the first group being benefited, be
reduced in numbers on the promotion
list.
The War Department, being fully
cognizant of the many qualifications
involved in any revision of the Army
promotion list. has persistently op-
posed any proposed changes which
have been made in connection thereto.
and those who have made a thorough
study of the subject have indicated
that the department was fully justified
in taking this position. The study has
not advanced to a sufficient stage to
permit the fOrecaSting of the probable
results, but ii is generally conceded
that recommendations will not he
made for Il revision of the Army pro
motion list.

In keeping with the War Depart

they have been especially fitted for

As was anticipated, the Fcommunica-
tions received this week by the War
Department general staff from the
chiefs of the various branches rela-
tive to a revision of the Army pro
motion list. contain wide differences
OF opinion as to the wisdom of effect
ing a general change at the present
time, the purpose of which would be
designed to adjust the claims OF those
officers who consider themselves ad-
rersely affected by the existing situ-
alton. Profound interest was taken

\ claim has been submitted by
Lieut.. Kenneth l.. Coontz. L. s. ".
fer decision by the controller gen
eral of the United States which in
wolves the right to count, for longev-
itN purposes, such service, not at the
Naval Academy, performed by him
self as a midshipman. While he was
a nidshipman he made three midship-
man cruises, a total of S months and
20 days, which was spent in actual
service afloat. performing the duties
of and actually replacing an enlisted
man during this time. According to
Lieut.. Coontz. this was not service
performed "at the Naval Academy"
but was actual service atioat. and he
contends that he is entitled to count
that service as much as any enlisted
man can count service.
Should favorable decision be given
this claim by the controller general,
it will simply add months and 20
days to the time which Lieut.. CoontZ
now counts for longevity. Lieut..
Coontzs class, that Of 1917. as "a result
of the passage of the last pay bill,
suffered a reduction in pay of $40 per
month. In the event that this adj
ditional time can be counted for lon
gevity, that loss will be reduced for
the period of months and 20 days
to S10 a month.
Great interest is being evinced in
this case by Navy officers in Wash
ington, where Lieut.. CoontZ Is well
known. Considerable significance is
attached to this claim, which, in the
event that it is decided favorably by
the controller general. forecasts the
filing Of many other claims by Off
GERS occupying a similar position.
The proposal recently made for cre-
ating a single promotion list for the
Navy has culminate in the efforts of
