"Woodrow Wilson" as President and "Josephus Daniels"
as Secretary of the Navy, 1p, 15½x19. On vellum.
Washington, 1916 May 27. Appointment of Weyman P. Beehler as
Lieutenant in the Navy. DANIELS served as WILSON's Secretary of
the Navy for eight years, 1913-1921. As Secretary, he instigated a series of
administrative reforms and oversaw a modest expansion of the Navy from the
summer of 1915 in spite of his own pacifist tendencies. Nevertheless Daniels
came under heavy conservative criticism both before and during U.S. involvement
in WWI, chiefly on account of the Navy's limited preparedness for war. Folds do
not touch signatures. "680" in unknown hand at lower blank edge. Paper clip
stain at upper left edge. Lightly creased. Fine, 2½-inch
seal. Overall, fine condition.
