Trepassey Bay -- U.S. naval ships (LOC)

• TVL1970 said:

  US Navy ships in Trepassey Bay, Newfoundland there to support the Curtiss NC flying boats' transatlantic attempt. They are from front to back, (still in wartime dazzle camouflage) the tanker USS Hisko (ID-1953), USS Upshur (DD-144) (adjacent to Hisko), USS Aroostook (ID-1256), and USS Prairie (AD-5). See: www.navsource.org/archives/11/0603.htm www.navsource.org/archives/09/03/0305.htm

  Thanks TVL1970, we'll add this information to the catalog record.

  This photograph was not taken from Signal Hill, as labelled, but rather from 'The Battery', which is below Signal Hill.

• Deirge Del said:

  The Wikipedia article on British Empire Economic Conference is a start point; and it is being held in Ottawa, Canada. It seems to be about trying to recover from the Great Depression, and tariffs were being discussed. Even if not wishing to be part of the commonwealth RoI would be very interested in any trade/tariff implications with UK and indeed the Commonwealth and it was probably better to be at that to try to influence decisions than not be at it.

  Was Lemass there too? Looks like him seated 3rd from right. O'Kelly seated 7th from left?
