...expedite development at the Panama Canal Zone and Hawaiian bases. Development of these two bases is especially necessary at this time. The limitation of armament treaty does not prohibit the building of light, fast cruisers. Accordingly other nations-one of whom is Japan-have specialized in ships of this type.
