Navy construction should be limited by facilities
Rear Admiral Austin M. Knight told the House Naval Committee that new navy construction this year should be confined to the nation’s building facilities. He urged immediate evaluation of capacity to meet a 1925 fleet goal and planning for stepped up programs thereafter. He warned of a dual Atlantic and Pacific threat and favored bold expansion if England is not included. The article also notes passage of the postoffice appropriation bill funding 321 million dollars with a shift to space basis for mail transport and a 50 pound parcel post limit unchanged.
