Invasion Plans Discussed By Secretary Knox
Secretary Knox rejected claims of an imminent international incident and said both sides are avoiding actions that could trigger conflict. He noted Japan could still use submarines to reach Kiska but a permanent garrison would strain supply lines. Knox praised US carrier construction, predicting a larger fleet by year end, with adequate planes and pilots aboard. He also denied American fleet movements in the Mediterranean, placing that theater under British control.
