Roosevelt Fights Naval Ratios and Gold Policy
President Roosevelt stands firm on a 5-5-3 naval ratio among the United States Great Britain and Japan and threatens to sail home if Tokyo pushes beyond par ity. He would back a funding boost to preserve current leverage if Japan violates the two year notice. Roosevelt shows deep ties to naval leaders and emphasizes western Pacific warfare constraints. He foresees no quick devaluation of the dollar, noting gold bloc pressure and possible currency shifts. The governance drama includes Morgenthau and the Federal Reserve, with O'Connor's shifting posts and bank affairs sparking a comic set of maneuvers as administration aims to tighten control.
