Less Butter. and More Guns,' Urges Secretary Weeks

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary of Commerce Weeks called on in- dustry today to support a Hess butter and more guns federal budget to meet the challenge of Soviet science.
 Weeks strongly suggested the budget which President Eisen- hover will hand Congress in Jan- uary will call for stepped-up mil itary and foreign aid spending and curtailment of civilian programs.
 The secretary addressed 1,200 members of the National Defense Executive Reserve, opening two- day conference here. The reserve is made up of businessmen who have served in government and stand ready to return in event of a mobilization.
 "The Soviet Unions sensational exploits in satellites have posed the most serious challenge of this tension-wracked age," Weeks said.
 'sAs President Eisenhower steps up the campaign to mobilize sci entific and military resources, American business must move up into the front line of defense 7
 Naming ways by which indus try can cooperate, Weeks headed the list with the exhortation: Support budget adequate fol national security"

Stevenson Refuses To Help Prepare US. Missile Plan

WASHINGTON, H-The White House said yesterday Adlai Ste venson has turned down an nvl- tation to help prepare an Amer1- can program to be recommended to the North Atlantic Treaty Or ganization.
 Press Secretary Hagerty said Stevenson has agreed, however, to comment" on the program which this country will lay before it's allies in the hope of overtaking the Russians in the guided missile and related fields.
 President Eisenhower plans to personally head the American delegation at the NATO meeting in Paris next month. Stevenson, who twice opposed Eisenhower for the presidency. will not comment until after the American program has been pre- pared.
 From all appearances, this means nothing more than that Stevenson will submit to the White House or the State Depart ment the sort of comment he nor mally would be expected to issue i publicly on something already done without consultation with him. Hagerty said he knew nothing about reports that Stevenson might go to Paris with Eisenhow- CT next month either as an official or unofficial adviser.
 Hagerty said Secretary of State Dulles invited Stevenson late last month to ''take part in the work of preparing an American pro- gram to be recommended" to the Paris meeting.
