DENBY RESIGHS A8 SECRETARY OF NAVY (Continued from First Page) yéars a man who knew by personal experience the viewpoint of enlisted | men, both in the navy and In the | marine corps. He had served as| gunner’s mate abourd the converted cruiser Yosemite during the war with Spain and through all ranks and grades from private to major in the marine corps during the World War. Mr. Denby also had a background of personal information as to the situ- ation in China and in the Orient gen- erally which he drew from ten years' employment in the international cu: toms service in China when that sery- ice ‘was directed by Sir Robert Hart. The service of Mr, Denby began dur- ing the time that his father, Charles | Denby of Evansville, Ind., was Ameri- | can minister to Peking. Had Special Knowledge Through this personal knowledge af | the Chinese customs situation, the navy secretary was able fo be helpful to the special committees assembled at the time of the Washington arms | conference which dealt with the Chi- | nese abstracts of the supplementar treaties. His executive functions at | the navy department were such, how- | ever, that the task of directing the de- liberations of American naval experts, who helped frame the technical clauses of the naval limitation treaty devolved wupon Assistant Secretary Roosevelt. Is 54 Years of Age. Mr. Denby was born in ansville, | 54 years ago today. He passed through the public schools of that city. His alma mater, however, is the University of Michigan, from which he graduated with the degree of LLB.

After his return from China, Mr, Denby began his political carcer when he was elected in 1903 to the Michigan house of Y entative He wa$ chosen to the #5th cangr as a member of the house from Michi- | gan, and served there from 1905 to 1911, He later was a member of the Detroit charter commission and when the United States entered the world wur in April, 1917, he prompt- Iy enlisted as a private in the marine corps and was sent to the marine corps training camp at Parris Island, 8, ., where virtually all of his war | service was rendered, the only excep- tion heing a trip to IPrance in 1918 as | an observer of Irench -methods of training. Had Strong Opinions Although a provisional major of the marine corps, reserve division, at the | ond of the war, he resigned that eom- mission before he became s ola of the navy. He carried with him | into the navy department, however, strong opinions, both us a er and us an enlisted man, as to disciplinary processes and: throughout his term as Youring - 11395 Sedan - - 1845 Prsces £ o b facsery C.
