Daniels Seeks Navy Plans If League or Not
Secretary Daniels told the House Naval Committee that three provisional naval building programs depend on the peace treaty and U.S. joining the League of Nations. He said ratification would lead to “rounding out” the fleet, while rejection would prompt duplicating the 1916 program to make the fleet the greatest in the world. If Congress takes no action this session he would push a six ship program to avoid losing naval ground.
