Observation-Disclosures
Admiral Miller Says
Door to His Office
Always to Be Open

By the Associated Press.
The other day an officer distrih-
uted to neWsmen in the Navy's
working press" room a brief formal
announcement that Rear Admiral
Harold B. Miller had assumed the
post of Navy director of public re-
lations.
The announcement fell as fiat as
yesterdays newspaper, because 10
minutes earlier a trim young naval
officer had walked in and told the
reporters:
I'm Miller"
Some had known him in his former
assignment as public relations officer
on the staff of Admiral Chester W.
Nimitz, Pacific fleet commander in
chief. After individual introduc-
tions, Admiral Miller, at ~ the
youngest rear admiral on Navy rolls,
sat cross-legged on the corner of a
desk and delivered himself of some
basic principles of his creed:
1T will be our policy while I am
here to tell you just what the hell is
going on. If national security is in
volved, we will tell you that, too, and
try to explain why. But we will tell
you what's going on"
Doors Open All Day.
While bug-eyed pewsmen figura-
lively pinched themselves, Admiral
Miller continued:
"It is our job to tell the country
about its Navy We will try to keep
ahead of you in doing that job. My
Office has three doors, and all of
them will be open all day"
These bombshell pronouncements
were characteristic of the man gen.

ents in the Pacific with completely
overhaEing, streamlining and i'm

of the Pacific war to the people back
home.

Miller, then a captain, reported for
that assignment last September. His

a ssowing attitude on the part Of the
Navy noticeable in many ways-a
conviction neither boastful nor vo-
ciferous, but firm, that the United
States Navy is good and getting
better daily, faces a terrific job still,
but is quietly confident of its ability
to do it, and do it on its own terms.
AS the Navy juggernaut rolled
across the Pacific, Admiral Miller
made arrangements for sending CEN
sors along with forward units and
providing communication facilities
at the scene of operations. The old
system was to send copy by courier
thousands of miles back to Pearl
Harbor for review and transmission
He made converts of old-line
brasshats, who viewed with CLASSY

ing war correspondents out with
naval task forces. He helped de-
