Although he placed the possibility of a two-ocean attack ln the hypothetical category, he nevertheless warned members of the house naval affairs committee that recent world events make it neces-i sary to consider defense against a I “coalition of powers.”
He met with an emphatic "No, Sir!” A question by Rep. Melvin J. i Maas, R., Minn., whether half of | the present US fleet could withstand a Pacific attack by Japan, j And in connection with the gen ; eral far Eastern picture, he in directly urged that congress re-
