81 Billion Military
Cost Cut Next Year
Forecast by Wilson
By John A. Giles

Secretary OF Defense Wilson,
doubling very much the Rus
slams have a policy for starting a
war right now" indicated yes
terday military spending might
drop around So billion in the
next fiscal year.
This would be around $40 bill
lion, or about 5 per cent below
the outlay for the current fiscal
period.
Further. Mr.. Wilson said the
Defense Departments request
for new appropriations-as op-
posed to expenditures-may De
less than the $50 billion the ad-
ministration asked this year
Congress finally gave the services
$34.3 billion.
But the Secretary was chary
of making any predictions as to
a balanced national budget. He
did not know when defense
spending could be trimmed sufti-
GENTLY. adding that he was not
aware of all the facts of the
overall problem.
Warns of COmplacency.
The Soviets have their prob
lems." he said, but cautioned this
should not lead to complacency
in this country. Nor should the
Specter of Russian development
of the hydrogen bomb lead to
any panic, he added. But at the
same time. he warned an un-
| forseen incident could set off a
conflict.
His remarks were made at a
news conference attended by AS
SiStant Secretary of the Air
Force Roger Lewis, who said it
might be possible to have 120-
wing air arm by next July in
stead of the 114-wing force first
considered possible under the
Eisenhower economy program. A
wing consists of 80 to IS planes,
depending on type.
/ Mr.. Wilson reiterated the Joint
| Chiefs of Stats were to take a
new look" at the overall mill
tary structure in the light of
current conditions and that no
final air target for the next fiscal
year had been decided upon. He
expected the chiefs report with
in a week or so.'
Sees Reds Trailing.
The secretary conceded that
Russian developments posed a
grave question that must be
taken into consideration by the
chiefs, but he said he did not
consider them to have come
along much ahead of schedule. -
He said there is "every reason
to think we are ahead of them
in weapons developments.
Mr.. Wilson specifically cited
the Russian MIG-15 as an "over-
rated airplane" and called at
tention to the fact that Amer
ican SabreJets outfought them
in Korea. He added the Soviet's S
best bomber was copy of the
World War II B-29
When asked whether he
thought the Russians were aware
of American airpower. he re-
ferred to the annual military air
demonstration held in Ohio.
The Russian officers had their
cameras, he commented.
Parries Atom Questions
! He tended to throw cold water
on rumored plans to make avail
able to the public more infor-
nation on atomic weapons.
He said that indicating the
number of atomic bombs would
mot help our country" adding
that it would be meaningless
anyway without giving the size
of the weapons, the planes that
can deliver them, and the tar

There was some talk of one Of
the Yiddish dailies capitalizing on
the strike situation with one page
printed in English. It might be a
good idea for the non-Jews some
times to read a Jewish news
paper. Maybe some day, one of
the Yiddish dailies will be trans
formed into an English-language
daily and perhaps non-Jews will
read it as many Jews today read
the Christian Science Monitor,
which is an excellent newspaper.
It certainly is one of the oddities
of life that a church which is de-
voted to faith healing should have
developed one of the great dailies
of this country.

work of Adolph Ochs. who mar

Isaac NJ. Wise. the founder Of Re-

Perhaps his Jewish antecedents
helped him. We Jews have been
