Josephus Daniels was born 18 May 1862 in Washington, N.C.
As editor and publisher of the Raleigh, N.C., News and Observer, he became
a major editorial voice in the South. He was appointed Secretary of the
Navy by President Wilson in 1913. A number of his naval reforms included
abolishing the officer's wine mess, the introduction of women into the
service, and establishment of service schools on board ships and stations.
He evinced great interest in the common man, favoring promotion from the
ranks and inaugurating the practice of making 100 sailors from the fleet
eligible for entrance into the Naval Academy annually. Under his leadership,
the Navy expanded greatly and fought effectively in World War I. He resigned
as head of the Navy Department in 1921, returning to his job as editor
and publisher of the News and Observer until his appointment as Ambassador
to Mexico from 1933 to 1942. After furthering President Roosevelt's "Good
Neighbor" policy with Mexico, he devoted the remainder of his life
to editing and the writing of a number of books, including Our Navy at
War and Life of Woodrow Wilson. He died at Raleigh 15 January 1948. |
