By the Associated Press

Senator johnson yesterday
charged that Secretary of De-
fense Gates has adopted a dam
gerous new method for estimat-
ing Soviet Russian missiles and
military might.
ANY rosy picture based upon
second-guessing Nikita Khru-
shchev can quickly turn blood
red" the Senate Democratic
leader said in q statement blis-
tering recent testimony by Mr..
Gates and other administra-
ton spokesmen supporting the
new defense blueprints and
budget.
Mr.. Gates surprised some
members Of Congress by testi-
flying there Is no deterrent
gap" in overall United States
military might compared with
that Of the Soviets.
Revised Downward
He said that prior United
States intelligence estimates Of
Soviet missiles and military
power had been revised down.

the Soviet Union probably
would do, as opposed to former
estimates which were made on
what they were capable Of
doing"

|Is something less than the mar
imum possible.
They also estimate how cas-
lily the Soviets could increase
their production - estimates
based on known lead time and
production, on availability Of
electric power. on the priorities
apparently given other produc-
ton on efforts and so forth.
This gives estimates Of prob
able production and Of maxi
mum possible production. At
the same time, estimates are
made Of probable and maxi
mum accuracy and size Of their
weapons.
We know the number Of our
Strategic Air Command sites
and the degree Of protection
they have. We know what
number Of missiles and bombs
delivered with a particular ac-
curacy can knock out SAC.
Chart Form
The data Is reduced to chart
form with one set Of curves
representing maximum and ex-
pected Soviet production, and
another set representing maxi
mum and expected size and ac-
curacy Of their missiles. II,
when projected into the future,
the quality and numbers curves
combine to equal knockout
strength. then this country Is
headed for possible trouble-or
for new efforts to build more
retaliatory force and protect It
better.
Mr.. Gates says he will see to
1t the Soviet Union can never
reach knockout strength. But
his critics and some service
spokesmen In the Pentagon say
he is letting the enemy come
too close.
The public will never know
exactly what the intelligence
estimates are or what our pre-
else defensive plans are. But
Congressman on the Appropria-
tions and Armed Services Com
mittees do know.
Last year Congress voted
more money for missiles than
the administration asked, end
the Pentagon Is increasing its
ICBM program. This years ap-
preparations bills will tell the
final story Of whether q group
Of informed critics in Congress
believe the administration pro-
gram will raise the margin Of
safety high enough.

johnson Blasts Gates
On Red Missile STUDY

Senator johnson, chairman
Of the Space and Preparedness
Subcommittee, recalled that
last year Mr.. Gates predeces-
sor, Secretary of Defense Neil
H. McElroy, said the Soviets
could have a 3-1 edge within
two to three years" He added
"The missile gap cannot be
eliminated by the mere stroke
of a pen. II our defense pro-
grams are being based-as pub
licly stated by Secretary Gates
on Soviet intentions rather
than capabilities, there is real
reason for concern.
1--WE certainly cannot afford
to stake the lives and the fu-
ture Of ITS million Americans
on the ability of some officials
to read Nikita Khrushchev's
mind"
"It is difficult to base our
planning upon estimates of
Soviet capabilities" he said.
Even then we must rely on
bits and pieces Of information,
which can seldom give q COM
pletely accurate picture.

Mr.. Gates also was criticized
yesterday by Representative
Kowalski, Democrat Of Connec-
ticut, a former West Pointer
and Army colonel. He said
"honeyed words by Secretary
Gates and reassuring generali-
ties by other administration
leaders will not end the missile
gap which now threatens our
national survival"
Mrs. Kowalski, a member of

phasized rhetoric rather than

INTERPRETIVE REPORT

controversy. 1t is generally
agreed that the Soviet Union
must not be permitted to get
so many long-range missiles
and planes that it could knock
out the Strategic Air Command
in one blow. AS the Russians
build more planes and missiles,
we build more planes and
missiles and we give better
protection to them.
Never Enough
Thus the Russians can have
more and more missiles, but
never enough.
But how do we scale our ef-
forts to keep ahead Of theirs?
1t starts with an intelligence
operation. The first step is to
estimate how many missiles
the Russians could build If they
cared about nothing but mis-
sileS. Knowing their steel pro-
duction. their available man.
power, their levels Of technical
skill, ETC.. the maximum threat
is calculated.
From this the intelligence
operators subtract the re-
sources which it is known Rus
sia will put into other projects.
This is about where intelli-
gence estimates were a year
ago when the Pentagon re-
ported that the Soviet Union
had the capability Of producing
three ICBM's to every one this
country planned to build.
During the past year intelli-
gence agencies have been add
ing to their knowledge Of what
1CBM factories actually have
been erected, and how much
they actually are producing. It

that meeting there was q furry

Spokesmen say the answer
is no." Despite Mr.. Gates

press conference of the assump-
ton that intent" Of the Rus
slams to build missiles had been

formula for "capability," the

ing Just as they always have
been.
Not a Factor
The intent of the Soviet
Union is not a factor in draw
ing up an intelligence esti-
mate. The professionals say
they don't even use the word
intent in their work, as it tends
to confuse them. They can
not. read the mind of the
enemy. They only estimate
what the enemy can do, what
he is doing, what his alterna-
tive courses of action are and
which courses are the most
and least likely for him to take.
And the administration,
when it gets these estimates,
plans its future defense so there
VIII be no gap in vital areas
between enemy capabilities and
American defenses.
Not every conceivable even
tuality is defended against, No
administration critic suggests
this or any country could buy
q total defense against every
thing. The administration saws
