    In the following cases the parties were represented by the same counsel as in the preceding case of Knox v. United States:
    
    RIDLEY McLEAN v. THE UNITED STATES.
    [No. 32828.
    Decided January 8, 1917.]
   Per Curiam :

This is the case of a lieutenant commander in the Navy claiming additional pay as aid and who served as fleet ordnance officer to a rear admiral in the Navy.

Under the decision in the case of Knox v. United States, ante, p. 22, the plaintiff is not eligible for appointment as aid, and therefore his petition is dismissed.
