Representative Kilday. Demo-

Sheehy FIays Custer
OF Denfe|d, Calls on
Matthew'S 10 Resiqn

Msgr. Maurice S. Sheehy. for
mer Navy chaplain who now heads
Catholic University's department
of religious education, declared
last night that those responsible
for the removal of Admiral Den
field as chief of naval operations
have committed a heinous crime
against their country and against
national security"
The educator, who served as
Navy captain in charge of chap
lains in the Pearl Harbor district,
described yesterday as another
day of infamy."
At the same time he sent a tele-
gram to Secretary of the Navy
Matthews urging him to resign
Immediately "in the interests of
national security"
Cites Pledge of No Reprisals.
Father Sheehy's statement to
the press follows:
This is another day of infamy
in the history of the United
States of America.
Until this year it was cele-
brated as Navy Day by millions
of men and women who served
in the Navy and who on this oc-
casion paid tribute to our heroic
dead. The candles have been ex-
tinguished by new form of Gov
ernment set up in our National
Capital.
"On the other day OF infamy,
December 7, 1941. most of the
Pacific was wounded by das-
tardly and cowardly blow. Today
the soul of the Navy has been
placed in grave jeopardy by
arbitrary and illegal action.
when the Armed Services
Committee summoned various
military leaders to testify recent
ly, they solemnly swore to tell the
truth. The chairman of that COM
mittee stated that no reprisals
would be taken.
Refers to Johnson's "Ambitions."
Faithful to their oath and to
their allegiances to our commun-
ity, certain naval officers gave
testimony which, while not harm
full to national security. was
deemed politically obnoxious.
II deplore the fact that to fur
ther his political ambitions Sec
retary of Defense Louis johnson
insisted that a Catholic be ap-
pointed Secretary of the Navy. His
new Secretary is man of high
integrity who knew nothing about
the Navy. He has relied largely
upon the guidance of naval lead
ers. particularly Admiral Louis
Denfeld. When Admiral Denfeld
gave his testimony to the House
Committee, he spoke fearlessly as
the representative and spokesman
Of 100000 men who are giving
their services to the country in
naval uniform.
1T is my belief that those re-
sponsible for the removal from
office OF Admiral Louis Denfeld
have committed a heinous crime
against their country and against
national security. Many naval Of
f1cers will, know. resign in pro-
test. However. far more i'm
portant is the usurpation of power
by one man in defiance of the will
of Congress-"

him the Distinguished Service
Medal.
Admiral Sherman took part in
the initial surrender conferences
with the japanese at Manila and
he later watched the formal sur
render aboard the battleship Mis-
souri, in Tokyo Bay.
In 1945, Admiral Sherman was
named deputy chief of naval oper-
ations. There he was responsible
for plans. operations. intelligence
and joint activities including liai-
son with the State Department on
international matters.
Admiral Sherman was assigned
to Mediterranean sea duty in
l947.
In addition to having a home
in Washington, he maintains a
residence at Melrose, Mass.

had stood on the lawn, accepting
a nice gesture. The uniformed
men of Branch 80 of the Fleet
Reserve Association were express
ing their support of him. They
shook hands with him. Then
they serenaded him. They sang
For He's a jolly Good Fellow" :"
Anchors Aweigh." And they
cheered him.
He told them the Navy was
bigger than any individual, that
it would carry on.
Later, when things were quiet
again, Admiral Denfeld told The
Star he first learned of the news
of his dismissal from Rear Ad-
miral John Dale Price. Deputy
Chief of Naval Operations for Air.
Heard 1t Over Radio.
"He heard about it over the
radio and told me when I come
out of a meeting of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff" Admiral Denfeld
explained. II haven't been for
mally notified. At the moment,
everything is just as usual. I'm
going down to the Office as I do
every day"
The telephone rang again. 1t
was Mark E, Andrews, former As
sistant Secretary Of the Navy,
calling from Houston, Tex.
"Yes, Mark, I'm sure I did the
right thing" the admiral said into
the telephone. Il have no regrets
whatever"
When this conversation ended,
the admiral was asked his i'm
mediate reaction to the dis
missal.
IT was a little surprised" he
commented. Il had read things
in the press for a week"
Wife Recalls Promise"
His wife interjected: But they
promised there would be no re-
II will be glad to step down
If by doing so I can help the
Navy and the country" he said.
z For q moment the admiral was
lost In thought. This was the
anniversary Of what used to be
Navy Day. There will not be any
more Navy Days. Under unifica-
ton there will be only an Armed
Forces Day.
Would he see Secretary Of the
Navy Matthews today? He didn't
know.
Its up to him." the admiral
said quietly.
Comdr. Sargent walked the
floor, his hands behind his back.
He was thinking of his associa-
ton with the admiral since 1919.
Way back to the days when he
was Chief Yeoman Sargent.
Loyal Friend, Good Boss"
II began with Admiral Denfeld,
and I'm damn happy to go out
with him." the commander de-
clared. IF he retires, I will too.
He's a loyal friend and a good
boss"
Frisco, one of the Denfeld
dogs (there also is Butch), wan
dered in and lay down near the
fireplace.
Mrs. Denfeld spoke, almost a
little fiercely. She said the ad-
miral had done nothing to be
ashamed of.
The questions of possible re-
tirement, of resignation and of
transfer came up.
II can't say anything now" ex-
planned the admiral. There would
be no formal statement until he
received official notification of the
dismissal.
Comdr. Sargent had gone into
another room that had ship mod
els in it.
Il guess this is the admirai's
most priced possession" said
