Resignation of Aid to Operations Fol-

with Secretary Over >ary's
Condition.
Washington, April 2 —Something of
a sensation was created in naval cir-
cles here today when it became known
that Rear Admiral B A. Fiske who has
an international reputation as a naval
expert, had tendered his resignation
of the office of aid for operation and
that the resignation had been promptly
accepted by Secretary Daniels.
The retirement of Rear Admiral
FIske from this important post was
the culmination of a long series of
difficulties between the aid for op-
erations and the secretary of war.
Admiral Flske round himself out of
tune with the present administration
from the outset. He advocated a
larger building program, a more up-
to-date organization and repeatedly
urged the development of the service
to subordinating eivrythlng to light-
ing efficiency.

has helped others and can help you.
