|Zhukov Says Atom Arms
Cannot Win War Alone

NEW YORK, Aug. 7 (P.-So-
Wet Defense Minister Georgi K.
zhukov says the new combina-
ton of air power and nuclear
arms by themselves cannot de-
eide the outcome of an armed
struggle"
The Russian marshal says a
future war will require large
armies and tremendous quanti-
ties of ordinary arms. despite de-
velopment of air power and nu-
clear weapons.
Marshal Khukov expressed the
opinion in response to questions
submitted to him in writing by
Hanson w. Baldwin, military edi-

ing a visit to Moscow last month.
Marshal Zhukov'S written an
swers to Mr.. Baldwin were trans

the Soviet Embassy in Washing

The Embassy said Mr.. Bald

zhukov's answers would be pub

The Times story today said
Marshal Zhukov's answer on the
air power-nuclear question "sug-

factors that came closer TO that
of the leaders of the United
States ground forces than to
those of the nuclear air power
school of thought"
Marshal zhukov gave this ex-

governments announced inten-

by $780, 900 men:
we were motivated first of all
by considerations of strengthen-
ing peace in the entire world and
reducing tension in the relations
between the states, as we'll as by
considerations of developing the
peaceful economy of the Soviet
Union and raising the well-being
OF the peoples of the USSR."
Asked whether the United
States had exaggerated Soviet
air power. Marshal Zhukov re-
piled that he had no precise
data on official United States
estimates of Soviet air strength.
He added:
1T is possible that some circles
in the United States, especially
those interested in armament
orders, are inclined to exaggerate
