Head Matter:
JAMES M. HELM v. THE UNITED STATES.
[No. 32986.
Decided January 8, 1917.]

Opinion:
Per Curiam:
This is a case where a captain in the Navy was ordered to the Boston Navy Yard for duty as captain of the yard and claims additional pay as aid to the rear admiral who was in command of the yard.
This case is governed by the decision in the case of Knox v. United States, ante, p. 22. The plaintiff at the time he was ordered for duty was a captain in the Navy and was not eligible for appointment as aid.
The petition of the plaintiff is therefore dismissed.
