By RUSSELL BRINEs

WASHINGTON, QR = Gen. J. Lawton Collins says the Army has increased its firepower by 50 per cent over World War II and is making superior weapons to those of the Soviets."
 The Army Chief of Staff told Congress the Korean campaign which officials disclosed has cost the Army alone over eight billion dollars-pr0ved this superiority.
 Collins said the American ar senal of weapons-from artillery to tanks-row would be "tre- mendously effective" against mass Russian attack in Europe.
 In the future, he said, "atomic artillery and guided missiles with and without atomic warheads will greatly enhance the power" of forces trying to hold back a mass assault.
 In another atomic development, Gen. Alfred M. Gruenther told newsmen yesterday that Western European defense forces are being trained in such a way that tac- tical atom bombs can be used. to best advantage against any sur prise Russian attack. Gruenther is Gen. Eisenhower's deputy in Europe.
 The subcommittee also was told that Army draft calls will jump to around 50,00O a month after July l, more than triple the 15,OOO scheduled for May. New recruits will be needed to replace between 100000 and 100000 inductees who will be released from service be- fore June 30, 1853.
