Arthur E. Davies of Statesville, N. C., a retired lleutenant in the Navy, filed suit yesterday against the controller | general of the United States, treasurer | of the United States and the Secretaries of the Treasury and the Navy, asking the court to direct by mandamus that the United States pay him $234.37 per m(;n!h instead of $141.75 now being paid. Davies shows by his petition that on October 2, 1920, he was retired as a lieutenant because of total physical dis- ability and that he was paid the full re- tirement pay of a lieutenant, $234.37, until April 1, 1927, when his pay was reduced to $141.75 by a decision of the controller general. The petition recites that the con- troller general's opinion was unwar- ranted, improvident and illegal, and was based upon a false legal theory that petitioner was not entitled to be retired | and receive retirement pay based upon | his first and highest naval rank as a | lieutenant, but that he must be retired | upon his provisional rank as a_warrant officer, he not having been onfirmed in his higher rank.
