Need Stability in Military Policy Said to Coolidge
Secretary of War Davis urged a stabilized military policy to guarantee security and stronger national defense. He reported progress but noted weaknesses in strength, organization, housing, and a 1,000,000 man reserve, while calling for Panama Canal expansion and inland waterways policy. Davis praised Philippine governance but warned on self government slowing economic progress and suggested land reform and public land use changes. He proposed dam construction on the Chagres River to boost canal traffic and outlined Waterways Corporation policy options for Congress.
