This memo urges naval officers and midshipmen to contact their senators, congressmen, and any other influential people they know and express their support of the Navy Personnel Bill, which, the memo states, would “add to the efficiency of the personnel” and “save the country nearly a million dollars each year as compared with existing law.” The memo also quotes a Special Order issued by the Navy Department.
