REP. TILMAN PARKS |
Warning Congress that an alarming condition exists on one of America's coasts, requiring the m immediate attention of the American coastal defence, Representative Tilman Parks of Arkansas, chairman of the mb-committee handling the War Department appropriations, led the fight in the Lower House for the adoption of the nation's largest peace-time military budget. Mr. Parks told his fellow-legislators that the condition was so alarming that Congress could not be advised of it publicly. Some of the arms of the American coast defence are here shown in setion, big coast defence and anti-aircraft guns, and navy aeroplanes.
