Times Washinnton Bureau, 132 2 New York Avenue WASHINGTON, May 21.—The Navy has its own little aviation row. An amendment to the pending line personnel bill designed especially to protection promotion of naval aviators in resulting in friction between the Bureaus of Navigation and Aeronautics. This developed Thursday in testimony of bureau offices before the House Naval Affairs Committee. The testimony showed Commander John Rogers, hero of the recent San Francisco-Honoluiu flight, in the role of Billy Mitchell of the Navy. Rogers, assistant chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics, introduced the disturbing amendment. Opposition to the amendment is led by Admiral Shumaker, Bureau of Navigation chief.

qualified aviators who fail ip selection an extra promotion period, about seven years, in which to make good. The amendment, Rogers told the committee, is based on the theory that aviators may need extra time to learn general sea duties in preparation for such line competition. Conditions'! have kept them anchored close to land since the war, he said. Admiral Shumaker asserted, however, that the amendment would tend “to create a special body in the Navy.” “The department,” he declared, “la opposed to group legislation. The situation, especially affects 104 aviators given commissions from the reserve after the war. In entering the service from civil life, these men were promised promotion merely on professional examination, with at least ten years in rank of lieutenant commander guaranteed. The line personnel bill, until it is amended wall endanger their expectancies, they contend. REGULAR -GUESTS’ TAKEN To Men and Woman Arrested Deputies Find Whisky.
