NATO Arms Plan
 To Cost The West
 300 Billion Dollars
By ARTHUR GAVSHON

LISBON, Portugal, (P9 - The Atlantic Allies laid down Satur- day carefully-drawn plan to tap western taxpayers for 300 billion dollars for Communist arms sum they believe can be Scraped up without bringing ec- onomic ruin.
 The cost will be spread over the three years ending with 1854 and is equal to $75O apiece for each of the 40O,0O0,OOO people in the 12 original Atlantic Pact Ma tions.
 The plan forms an economic tightrope for many of the hard up European nations. Many had to increase their arms spending, and the 1854 armament goals were reduced slightly, to make ends meet under the plan.
 It set down ways and means to finance an army that is meant to include 30 front line divisions and 20 in immediate reserve by the end of 1852, with planned expansion to some 88 divisions by the end of 1854. Included in the plan is a net work of airbases reaching from the Arctic to the Equator, com munications, ships, tanks, guns, ammunition, uniforms, barracks | and such like.
