a U.S. Could Destroy Russ War Power-McNamara ra Armed Services Committee the new $48.3 military budget, McNamara also said the United States would use nuclear weapons in a limited war if necessary despite its buildup of conventional forces. Here is the defense picture painted by McNamara for the present and future years: Retaliatory Strength The United States now has about 50 intercontinental ballistic missiles. By the end of 1964 it will have about 1,034 -126 Atlas, 54 Titan 54 Titan II and 800 Minutemen. By the end of the next fiscal year, it will have 14 wings of B52 bombers, or 600 planes.

Each B52 can carry nuclearSkybolt missiles which can be launched 950 miles from the target. The Air Force also will have two wings of supersonic B58 bombers and hundreds. of ed i m-range B47s. Construction of missile-firing Polaris submarines will be stepped up. Reserves McNamara recommended that 30,000 paid civilian Army Reservists and National Guardsmen be cut from the current 700,000.

The number of paid Air Force would be increased by 1,000 to 61,000. Authorizations for drill-paid Naval and Marine Reserves would remain unchanged at 125,000 and 45,500 respectively. Continental Defense No matter how much money is spent, simply cannot in this day and age provide an absolute defense for the continental United States." But to do the best job possible, the administration wants to spend $2.1 billion for defense against any attacking bombers or missiles. This includes funds for tinued research on the NikeZeus, but no production money for the anti -missile missile. In this connection, McNamara warned that Russia "probably already has some missile- -firing submarines, a few of which may be nuclear powered." Arms Modernization The budget calls for mod ernization of weapons ranging from the foot soldier's rifle to tanks, ships and planes.

For example, eight old small arms will be replaced with a family of three NATO- standard 7.62- mm weapons.
