Your acceptance of role of anonymity set the tone of your ser- vice.
 While you worked increasingly in the nations ranks, President Roose- welt thought it wise that you should not be on active duty, that you should appear, not in the uniform of the Naval officer which you are, but in civilian clothing. Likewise he directed that your special du- ties not be publicized during hos tilities. You furnished confidential intelligence of great value to the Navy throughout the war. In your column and broadcasts you dis seminated news which materially aseAsted recruiting. In addition, your assistance In the solicitation of funds for Navy Relief was sig nificant
