Army and Navy Notes Plan Merger in Navy
The Tribune reports a broad plan to amalgamate line, medical, and staff corps in the Navy, urging Congress to authorize legislation. Rear Admiral Wainwright supports consolidation to unify duties such as design, construction, and shore management, while pay officers and naval constructors push their own roles. Opposition from staff corps fears diminished interests, with Representative Padgett and Senator Hitchcock weighing in as hearings loom and debates continue among naval officers nationwide. In the War Department, an Army reorganization into three divisions with Governors Island, Chicago, and San Francisco as hubs prompts protests, but the order aims to cut costs and streamline administration, with Congress expected to be urged to defer intervention.
