During the recent Hawallan maneu-. vers of the entire fleet and the subse. quent Australian-New Zealand cruise of the battle fleet, no serious machin- ery casualties were reported on any class of combatant vessel. Morale High, Report Says. The high morale, he declared, was manifested to = "ne extent by the fact that net deser ns have decreased from 3,483 in 1923 to 991 in 1925, or about two-thirds, while re-enlistments have increased from 50 per cent in 1923 to 72 per cent in 1925. Except that the authorized enlisted strength of §6,000 men could not be maintained in the last few months be- cause overexpenditure would have re- sulted, and the number was accord- ingly reduced to 82,000, Mr. Wilbur said the personnel situation during the year was “uniformly excellent.” He added, however, there was “a serious shortage of line officers” and that this condition would persist under the limitation of appointments to the Naval Academy contained in the last appropriation bill. This allots three appointents to each Representative ;« and Senator instead of five, as author~ ized by general law. The death rate in the Navy from disease during the year was 1.78 per 1,000.
