British Aid in Pacific and Truman Coolidge Parallels
Ex Representative Norris Poulson reports British aid to the U S against Japan is uncertain and highlights Indian troops as a potential, yet unreliable, force. Admiral King opposed British naval help in the Philippines, and Greek Salonika saw Indian troops side with Greeks. Truman’s likeness to Calvin Coolidge noted in policy luck and career moments.
