Delivery Means

For this reason, the experts pre-
fer the term, arms Control" to
disarmament" They believe that
total disarmament is q utopian
dream. What is possible, they say
Is gradual reduction of arms, some
control over means of delivery,
and agreement on such matters
as the peaceful uses of space, and
over nuclear testing.
The chances for nuclear test
pan are slim, most observers agree,
but it is possible that the major
powers may try for some agree
ment on space matters, and pos
sloly over non-atom zones in the
Arctic (as in Antarctica).

New Strategy

Coincidentally, the Air Force de-
veloped a new strategy which
would bolster the need for manned
bombers. Under it, the United
States would only strike at enemy
military forces some of which
are hidden and mobile - unless
our cities were first hit by nu-
clear warheadS. This could save
millions of American lives, it is
asserted, if it discouraged the
enemy from attacks on our popu-
lation centers.
After Gen. Curtis LeMay, Air
Force Chief of Staff and the last
of World War lis high-ranking
bomber chiefs still on duty, testi-
fled, under questioning, that the
BIO now RS-70) program should
be expanded and accelerated,
things happened on Capitol Hill.
The House Armed Services Com
mittee, rejecting the advice of
Secretary Mcnamara and Gen.
Lemay'S four Joint Chiefs of Staff
colleagues, voted unanimously to
recommend an appropriation of
$491 million for the big plane.
This was $311 million more than
Mr.. Kennedy requested. Further
more, the committee, in its bill,
said that the Secretary of the Air
Force shall be directed" to spend
the bigger sum.

Might Avoid Fight

The President and Mr.. Nc
Namara, while firmly convinced
they are right, do not appear to
relish a head-to-h fight with
Mr.. Vinson. They indicated that
they would try to persuade the
House Appropriations Committee,
which is jealous of its own re-
sponsibility for appropriations, to
press for striking the word "di-
rected" from the final bill. Should
that fail, an attempt to keep it
out of the Senate's version doubt
less would be made.
Mr.. Kennedy is in no easy po-
sition. With $40 billion in defense
contracts in the offing and con-
tractors and subcontractors in
nearly every State in the Union
likely to benefit, the pressure is
great.
If Congress backs Mr.. Wilson's
demand-and on defense matters
it often does - should the Pres
ident risk losing critical votes for
other important legislation he
hopes to get enacted this year?
With the anti-missile missile
system, the fallout shelter pro-
gram and the increased emphasis
on conventional warfare forces
and weapons due to add many
billions to the defense budget
now nearly $50 billion-can he
afford to approve a bomber pro-
gram which critics claim to have

Vinson Challenge

Chairman Carl Vinson, a dean
of Congress and the most influ-
entail single legislator on military
affairs. had flung down the gaunt-
let to Mr.. Kennedy and his De-
tense Secretary.
Mr.. Vinson had had fights-al
losing ones-with Presidents Tru-
man and Eisenhower. For exam
pie, Mr.. Truman refused to spend
money for a giant Navy aircraft
carrier in 1850 and Mr.. Eisen-
hover ignored funded requests to
buy additional bombers and to in
crease Marine Corps personnel.
The Armed Services Committees
report accompanying its bill made
it clear that Mr.. Vinson was going
to carry the BIO fight further
than he had ever carried any in
the past. The report, referring to
the fact the bill had directed"
action, said:
IF this language constitutes a
test as to whether Congress has
the power to so mandate, let the
test be made and let this impor-
tant weapons system be the field
of trial"
Actually, how can the test be
made? Unless Mr.. Kennedy gives
in, it would take the Supreme
Court to decide the constitutional
deadlock and it appears hardly
likely that it would go that far.

be one Of the first items dis
cuSSed at the conference, and may
bog the conference down for weeks.
The Russians will probably offer
another nuclear moratorium, but
the United States already has
said it would never again agree
on an unpoliced test ban.

Cost in Billions

Mr.. Kennedy told his news con-
ference on Wednesday that a
force of 140 planes would cost $40
billion (more that $40 million
apiece and in toto more than the
entire Federal budget of the early
days of the New DeaD and would
not be ready until 1910 or 1871.
Air Force cost estimates are con-
Siderably lower.

Air Force redesignated the BIO
as the RS-70, changing it's mis-
sion from a prime nuclear bomber
to a reconnaissance strike plane,

representing the Soviet bloc, the
West, and the neutrals - two
powerful nations will be conspi-
cuously absent France and Red
China.
France, led by President de
Gaulle, sees no sense in the meet
ing, and has predicted that the
disarmament conference will
achieve nothing. Red China -
with the largest population in the
worlds not a member of the
United Nations, and was not in
vited to the conference.
Any agreement reached in &C.
neva, would have to be approved
by both France and Red China
before it could be put into effect.
While France is likely to assent,
the same can not be said for
Picking. The Chinese seem I'M
likely to agree to any disarma-
ment treaty until Formosa is
united to the mainland hardly
possible IN today'S world.
The foreign ministers meeting
that will begin tomorrow will con-
Germ itself with the political is
sues. The United States wants to
learn the Soviet Unions inten-
tions in Central Europe and in
deed, around the world.
The atmosphere is gloomy even
though the Soviet Union and the
United States signed cultural
exchange agreement last week,
and after two weeks of letter writ
ing, Mr.. Khrushchev surprised
most people by dropping his sum-
NIT proposal and sending Mr..
Gromyko to Geneva.

Present MEETING

This week, another chapter in
the story of disarmament will be-
gin in Geneva. Seventeen nations
will meet under the auspices of
the United Nations to discuss anew
the ways and means of bringing
the arms race to halt.
By the end of the conference
ii not sooner-the following ques-
lions should be answered:
Q Whether the arms race will
continue undated, or whether the
big powers may agree on some
method of control.
Q Whether. nuclear tests will
continue to be exploded in the
atmosphere, or whether the
powers will decide to eliminate
this especially dangerous by
product of the arms race.
Q Whether a solution can be
found to some of the more press
ing political problems, such as
Berlin, and Southeast Asia. These
are closely connected with prog
ress on disarmament.

Instead of the iron discipline
of the Stain era, when food lines
were the order of the day, the
Soviet style of life is now more
relaxed, and workers are encour-

Mr.. Khrushchev noted in his
speech that food consumption of
quality foods meat, milk, eggs
and butter-had risen about 40
per cent in recent years. But the
supply was not keeping up with
the demands, he added.
His speech also made these
points:
. Communism cannot succeed as
way of life c'from each ac-
cording to his work, to each &C
cording to his need'D, until there
is an abundance of wealth-in-

from the Chinese view that COM

the abundant wealth following

. There is much to learn from
Western methods of agriculture.
He thereby opened the door on
more reasonable discussion of
Western ideas within the Soviet
Union.

talked over publicly. BY discuss
ing the situation honestly and
openly, Mr.. KhruShchev contrasted
himself with Stain who tried to
cover up Soviet shortcomings. The

Suicide Threat Tishtens Control Over Nuclear Weapon Safety System

 That incident was described along with several others which contributed to the decision 10 change rules, but the Pentagon said none of them could have produced nuclear explosion.

Airlines Told They
 Can Boost Profits by Lowering Freight Rates

MONTREAL tR - The worlds airlines can boost their profits con- siderably by taking a different ap- proach to air freight business, the International Civil Aviation Or ganization said in a report issued Tuesday.
 Measures recommended in the Ill page report included "selective reductions in air freight rates, vigorous sales promotion and cooperative arrangements among carriers such as pooling and sale of space to one another.
 ICAO, a United Nations agency, stressed the earnings it claimed airlines could gain by decreases in air freight rates.
 The report said only very small part of world freight is car ried by air.
 But it added:. If only 10 per cent of the world freight traffic were to find air freight rates ad- vantageous, the present volume of air freight traffic would be multi piled at least 200 times"
