Washington, Das. 31 Aadieal dif ferences between Secretary af the Na vy Daniels and naval officers on naval organisation developed aat of Daniels' appearaae before the house naval eommktee tsday. Daniels made snggesrioas on transfer of reserve officers to the permanent navy on the aathoriaatisns of perma nent naval gtrength and on the six af ship complements, which varied great ly from those previously Bade by of ficers. The committee, with exception of Representative Britten, Illinois, indi cated agreement with Daniels. Daniels read to the committee a pro posed bill to transfer 1000 reserve of ficers to the permanent force 'as fol lows: 300 lieutenants, 30O lieutenants, jun ior grade, and 400 ensigns. To get this transfer the reserve offi cer will have to pass a strict examin ation, Daniels said, and would be sent to Annapolis for six months following their transfer. Differed With Officers Daniels' proposal differed from that of officers who asked unlimited trans fers. He also differed with the offi cer on the permanent enlisted strength which he said should sot be increased. Officers recommended an increase from about 137,000 present strength, to 217, 000. Daniels' plan will necessitate em ployment of 60,000 reserves np to June 30, 1819. "I doat Ibelicve it Wise now to fix a permanent- strength, for the navy more than fixed ia the last bill." Dan iel said. Daniel introduced a table showing the present permanent naval strength is 143,555 and the temporary strength, including reservists, aviators and trade students, is zii,Mj. Discuss Bize of Ships Daniels then began a discussion touching the size of ships eomple' ments, pointing out taat the number of men now carried on ships has been rapidly increasing. The Pennsylvania, built to earrv 900 men, carrie 1440 and the. Arizona, 1540, .Daniels said, The secretary then read a report by Admiral Hodman severely scoring the crowding of men in sleeping quarters aboard shin, chargine they were "packed in Hke sardines," while of fices, workshops and other buildings were allowed to encroach on space QU' signed for sleeping quarters. "Aftor careful investigation, I am of the opinion battleships can be op erated with smaller complements," tne report read. Daniels read a table showing Bri tain carried ia 1014, fifty, five men per 1000 tons. Suggests Old Style System Daniels suggested returning to the old Btyle system of commutation for officers, stating it would save 11,' 000,000. Another proposal which Daniels said was most important" provided for keeping the pence pay of the navy at the present war rates enacted in May 1917. The increases ranged from $6 to 15 per month. "Without this, the navy will have difficulty getting 850,000 men," Dan iel said, declaring that the navy would suffer in competition with the shipping board and outside attractions. "This 13 a step toward the. policy I have in view," Daniel continued. "Every man in the navy should ibe a trained man ana get pay for it." Under the old system navy men were among the worst paid in the world, Daniels said. The committee indicated they favored the increase. Dunielg next proposed an amendment to put navy raukijigs strictly on a mer it basis.
