Navy aviation program seeks 400 more planes for parity
Washington Jan 16 chairman Britten of the house naval affairs committee said a new 38,000,000 navy aviation program is being drafted. He argued the current five year plan would only yield 1,000 modern planes by July 1921 and that 600 planes are insufficient. The plan would equip new plane carriers Lexington and Saratoga and new cruisers. He noted expansion of lighter than air craft with two large 1,500,000 cubic foot dirigibles at Akron and tests will determine if they fit wartime needs.
