WASHINGTON, July 28- The Navy Department asked Congres sional authority today for $245,- 100000 worth of shore base con- struction, including urgently needed facilities for underground storage of oil in Hawaii.

No Justification
 For Jap Bombing

WASHINGTON, July 30 (P) - The United States lodged immed fate representations with the Jap anese government for the bomb ing of the gunboat Tutuila at Chungking.

Captain of US. Destroyer Drops
 Bombs Near Sub

WASHINGTON, July 29 (P) - The Senate Naval Committe re- ported release today which quoted Secretary Knox as testi- flying that the captain of United States destroyer dropped three depth bombs off the coast of Greenland, when he believed his ship was in possible danger of of an attack by submarine.
 The testimony contained the re port of the committee which re- commended that no further in vestigation be made of the news paper reports of shooting by Am erican naval units in the Atlan- tic, conveying British merchant men.
 Secretary Knox was quoted as saying that lone United States destroyer, operating off Green idllu, nearu an SOS rom steam CT and proceeded to the location and picked up 60 survivors of the steamer. While engaged in this act of mercy, the operator of the listening equipment reported to the captain that he thought he heard submerged sub. The cap- tain immediately turned in the direction indicated and dropped three depth charges. In doing this he very prudently exercised the right of self preservation, for had there been a sub there, his destroyer might have been sunk"
