Taussig urges impregnable base and Pacific alliance plan
Rear Admiral Taussig told the Senate naval committee a strong U S base in the Philippines and a coordinated Allied action with Holland and Britain are essential to deter Japan and safeguard U S interests in the Far East. He warned of a potential push toward war if the U S fails to project strength, while the Navy denied policy alignment with his personal views. Major Eliot suggested larger naval expansion and questioned the value of Taussig’s Allies alliance, proposing Australia bases as a practical alternative.
