McNamara urged to resign over defense shortages
Kenneth T. Lyons of the National Association of Government Employees called on Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara to resign for ordering the closure of Watertown Arsenal in Massachusetts and Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. He cited critical shortages of weapons and spare parts for Vietnam, with private bids rising sharply and some parts costing far more than normal. Lyons warned Congress and noted Watertown’s plea to keep the Watertown Foundry. He cited failing efforts to obtain castings from foreign governments and said McNamara should resign in the best interest of national defense.
