WILBUR IS SILENT
IN MAGRUDER CASE
Secretary Is Not Yet Ready
to Announce Course.
Congress Blamed.

Secretary Wilbur is not yet ready
to announce the course the Navy De-
partment is to follow in the case of
Rear Admiral Thomas P. Magruder,
whose published criticism of naval ad.
ministration threatens to involve de-
partmental officials in q serious row
with the incoming Congress.
Both Secretary Wilbur and Admiral
Edward w. Eberle, chief Of naval
operations. are making close analysis
of the charges contained in the maga.
zine article, and disciplinary action,
IL any is to be taken, will be deter
mined by the results of this inquiry.
1t is felt in the department that the
Magruder charges are aimed at the
department as a whole rather than
at individual officials.
Uncertainty ih Policy.
That the Censorship" rule that
governs the publication of articles by
persons in the Navy is subject to
varying interpretations is admitted by
high officials. but it was declared that
the real intent of the rule is well
known. Without intending to gag"
officers, the rule seeks to have all ma
terial for publication concerning the
Navy submitted or filed with the de-
partment for possible correction. But
the rule does not state specifically
whether the article should be sub.
mitted before it is published, which
has resulted in a number of officers
being subjected to discipline in the
past.
In view of the uncertainty that
hinges about the policy, suggestions
were made today that the rule should
state. beyond any doubt, the time limit
in which such articles should be filed
with the department. Mr.. Wilbur,
thus far. has not expressed himself on
this point.
Laid TO Congress.
Meanwhile. Admiral Magruder was
reported in Philadelphia as sticking
to his guns"
Any act of discipline meted out to
the admiral. it was believed, would
spur naval critics in and out of Con-
gress to press for an inquiry that
might cause the naval administra-
tion embarrassment. Naturally, Sec
retary Wilbur doesn't wish to stir up
another Sims controversy in the de-
partment. but it was said on his be-
half today he too would stick to his
guns" if he believes Admiral Ma
gruder deserves disciplining.
Much that Admiral Magruder has
to say about the navy yards is laid
directly at the door of Congress itself,
for the Navy Department has long
sought to close some of the surplus
yards. 1t is the criticism directed
ut the fleet which most concerns
higher officials and these charges are
being closely analyzed to determine
the admiral has distorted
the truth or made plain misstate-
ments of fact.

When Old Man Coyote had caught
that plump hen in Farmer Browns
dooryard, he had done it so quickly
and quietly that the other hens had
known nothing about it. You see,
that plump hen had been off by her
self. SO after leaving her hidden in
the grass. Old Man Coyote ran back
swiftly, but just as cautiously as be-
fore. This time he did not find a
plump hen quite so handy. He had
to cross the dooryard in order to get
one. He didn't hesitate. Like a gray
flash he shot out into the midst of
those surprised hens and seized one
of them by the neck. Then while the
others ran in all directions, making a
terrible racket. Old Man Coyote
lodged around the corner of the barn
and once more headed for the Old
Pasture.
This time he kept right straight on
going. When he reached the Old Pas
ture he headed straight for his old
home-the one he had had to give up
when Mrs. Coyote had chosen another
home. Straight into his old home he
went and there he left the plump hen.
Then. turning back, he made straight
for the plump hen he had hidden in
the grass-the first one he had caught.
She was there just where he had left
her. Picking her up he carried her up
to his old home and put her with the
other one. Then, grinning in a very
pleased way. he trotted up to the hid
den new home, of which Mrs. Coyote
was % proud. He knew she would be
waiting for him there.
You should have seen the look of
disappointment on her face when she
saw Old Man Coyote trotting up with
