The piece argues that Britain built 27 warships for Japan with Brazil as a screen and warns the U.S. must expand its fleet to counter Japan’s rising naval power. It cites Roosevelt’s naval policy and Congress approving two Delaware-class ships, noting Japan is building faster and the Pacific control is at stake. It also notes a Colorado timber testing lab coming to Boulder.
