DEN3Y DENIES
ANY SHAKE-UP
tavy High Command Changes
Passed — Rumors Are
Beinw Circulated.
WASHINGTON, !). Cv, Feb. 6.- No
ifficial consideration is being given
o prospective changes in the higher
•ominanJ of th ■ navy, according to
■ecrctarv Denby,, when his atten
!on w.m call' 1 to the report cur
ent at Bremerton as well as other
diore stations and throughout the
leet of a general shake-up.
Navy officer.- have given counte
lance to th, rumor that Admiral
aborla will soon relieve Ailmiral
-oontz as cli:*■ f of operation-., the
atter's tour of duty having already
jeen prolong ■ I; that Admiral Cooat/,
irill be made commander in chief of
he fleet, and that Captain Jack: on
>f the Mississippi will become vicc
idir.iral of the fleet.
Subject Dropped for Time
Such an arrangement ha3 undoiibt
?dly been in the minds of the ruling
xmers. Secretary D-nby’s announce
nent means that the subject for the
,ima being, at least, has beon
Iropped.
A probable reason lies in the fact
hat a considerable element in the
tavy, with numerous friends outside
»f the service, arc urging that here
if ter in selecting officers for the
thole© posts, preference be given to
trad nates of the Navy War College.
Not War College Graduates
It is argued that there is no In
centive for the senior officers in the
tavy to take the war college course,
ntended to prepare for higher com
nands, if it secures them nothing
vhen higher commands are open.
Admirals Coontz and Eberle, for
ill their distinguished service and
icknowledged ability, are not gradu
ites of the war college, afthough
’uptaln Jackson is. The campaign on
>ehalf of war college graduates has
terome vigorous. Had any slate of
tew selections been prepared, that
ampaign has been vlgph>us enough
o cause at least temporary suspen
ildn. **■
