Millions to fund new navy building program in Washington
Roosevelt will be urged in Congress to request an immediate deficiency appropriation of about 26 million dollars to begin expanding the navy. Chairman Vinson emphasized a real navy, expanding yards at Mare Island New York Philadelphia and possibly more, with private hull construction to handle half the contracts. He stressed defense over aggression and urged swift passage and a 25 million deficiency for this fiscal year.
