LETTER FROM THE NAVY DEPARTMENT
Navy Department,
Office Of The Secretary,
Washington, January 15, 1941
The Administrator:
Federal Works Agency, Washington, D. C.
Sir: The matter of access roads to the Military and Naval Establishments and certain private establishments engaged on national defense production is assuming great importance. It is understood that a preliminary survey of the requirements for access roads to Naval Establishments has been made and that the complete project of providing adequate highways for the national-defense program may require a total expenditure approximating $230,000,000.
Informal inquiry of the Public Roads Administration indicates that a report is being prepared on this subject for submission to the President about February 1, 1941, and it is requested that early action be taken to accomplish at least the most urgent projects in the program.
Respectfully,
2
