Secretary of the Navy Newberry has received papers and letters from Cameron McRae Winslow, President Roosevelt, and the Navy Bureau of Navigation regarding an unnamed matter. Roosevelt did not intend to act on it and Newberry will have to leave it to his successor. Newberry considers Winslow one of the best naval officers he has known. Considering the circumstances, Newberry does not believe that Winslow’s suspension is a reflection on his professionalism.
