and a new all weather fighter

knowledge is evidence of the
modern technology of the Soviet

them

from a Defense Department pub

The Pentagon is holding fast
in its refusal to release photo
graphs of Russia's new war
planes.
It has such pictures. They
have been obtained by intelli-
gence sources since the planes
were first seen flying over Mos
COW April II.
In the meantime there have
been numerous flights. Every
body in Moscow, including resi-
dents of foreign embassies, has
had chance to observe the
much discussed flights and to
photograph them.
Then why the secrecy? Why
has the Defense Department
concealed what it knows about
the planes-when apparently the
only people from whom the facts
are concealed are the American
people2 Z
Defense Secretary Wilson's
public-relations aides have an
answer. They claim that Air
Force intelligence chiefs have
convinced the top Pentagon
brass that release of the photos
could compromise the agent who
snapped them. The theory is the
Reds might be able to trace his
location if they saw the pictures.
The suspicion persists, how
ever. that the Pentagon simply
does not want the American
people to know too much about
Russia's new air strength. The
story of the Moscow flights has
