Synopsis

Excerpt from Laboratory Glassware and Scientific and Surgical Instruments: Hearings Before the Subcommittee of the Committee on Finance, United States Senate, Sixty-Sixth Congress, Second Session

One reason why this bill should be passed is in itself ample for prompt approval, and that is that the national defense requires 1t. Who does not remember Uncle Sam's appeal for the loan of eyes. For the Navy?

We are told that Carl Zeiss in Germany had pairs of field glasses all ready for the men who manned their submarines and field artillery.

Everyone is familiar with the fact that in modern warfare a piece of artillery is directed by sights and range finders and without these it is as helpless as an automobile without a steering wheel.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand.

The author presents testimony from leaders in science, industry, and the military, representing some of the largest and most prestigious institutions in the country. The author also provides detailed production costs for a variety of products compared with the prices of foreign imports, solidifying the point of view that these domestic industries required protection to survive.
