In a former editorial series on the new navy, the piece argues United States bases beyond yards, notably Canal Zone and Pearl Harbor, are crucial for fueling, repairs, and replenishment. It stresses bases must be large enough to dock and service all ships, supply fuel, ammo, and reserves, and enable operations toward South America, with position, resources, and strength as key demands.

Navy expands Pacific base network across islands and routes
The navy is rapidly expanding a chain of Pacific bases from Alaska to the Philippines and beyond. New stations near Midway, Wake, Johnston, Palmyria, Samoa, and Guam support planes and submarines, with Pearl Harbor remaining the principal overseas yard. Experts say bases equal multiple battleships in strategic value. Admiral Stark emphasizes bases, ships, and men as the navy’s core.
