more to Russian strength than
If they stood around in uniform
doing guard duty.
He said it is more important
to reduce weapons than the
number of men under arms.
Mr.. Dulles said the United
States constantly studies its own
military needs and will not re-
duce the forces which it. thinks
are essential for the defense Of
the United States merely as a
propaganda move.
He made these statements at
q news conference devoted al
most entirely to an appraisal Of
the Soviet announcement Of yes
terday that Moscow intended to
reduce the size of it's military
machine by IL million men. The
announcement gave no figure on
the size of the Soviet force that
would remain after the cut,
scheduled to be made by next
May /, but previous estimates by
American sources would indicate
that the cut would leave about
80 million persons under arms
in the Soviet Union.
Fewer Than U. S. Total
This would be perhaps 100, 900
fewer than in the American
Armed forces.
This does not take into con-
sideration, however, the men
under arms in countries allied
with either the United States or
the Soviet Union.
Mr.. Dulles opened his news
conference by reading a pre-
pared statement asserting that
the United States welcomes the
Soviet announcement "if this
proves to be evidence Of an i'm
tent to forego the use of force
in International affairs" He
pointed out, however, that there
could be no verification of the
carrying out of the Soviet's an
nounced intention.
Mr.. Dulles added, in answer
to a question, that he thought
the Soviet announcement could
be explained by economic factors
rather than a shift in Soviet in
tentions. He said the Soviet
needed more manpower on its
farms and factories and was get
ting this manpower from its
army.
Sees Propaganda Goal
Having done this, Mr.. Dulles
continued, the Soviets are trying
to use it as propaganda weapon
and are trying to persuade other
countries to cut their armed
forces.
