Khrushchev's Estimate
On Alarms Seen Low

VIC hlSdI llldIllbllJ experts Ilg-
ured that each side has enough
potential nuclear punch to de-
ter the other from starting an
atomic war.
| Mr.. Khrushchev referred to
the United States atomic po-
Itency in arguing yesterday at
the Berlin Communist meeting
that Red China's hard line
international relations policy
would provoke a nuclear war.
He said it is better to live beau
tifully than to die beautifully.
Russia has a 100 megaton
bomb, he declared, without
mentioning the Soviet's numer-
ical inferiority in A-weapons.
Experts Issue Report
The disarmament study was
undertaken by a group of non
Government experts assembled
at Woods Hole, Mass, last
summer. Their report, recently
issued by the Disarmament
Agency, said:
1T is estimated in unclassi-
fled documents that the Ameri-
can nuclear stockpile consisted
of about 325,000 Kilograms of
U-235 and $4,000 Kilograms
PU-239 in January, 1860. These
numbers can be translated into
weapons roughly independent
of yield) at above five TO 10
Kilograms per weapon.
"Extrapolating the stockpile
estimate, the United States
could have at least $4,000
weapons by 1863 these
weapons would be Of various
sizes and uses.
Presumably the stockpile Of
the Soviet Union is smaller,
since its nuclear production
program is a more recent un-
dertaking However. 1t is diff
ficult to imagine that its stock
pile would be less than the
equivalent Of 5000 weapons by
1868.
Adequate Deterrent
"The estimated number Of
weapons is certainly adequate
to fulfill the strategic deterrent
requirements of both sides.
For a limited war capabil-
ity a much wider geographic
deployment and a larger spec
Itrum Of yields are required.
However, II is difficult 10 be-
lieve that the United States
has not set aside most reason
able tactical needs. II so, its
stockpile has reached a limit
lof reasonable military useful
mess. The United States may
conclude, on the other hand,
that the Soviet stockpile has
lnot reached a similar limit
