From the discussions could come the first substantial flow of American arms to the United Kingdom since World War II. as well as a sharing of American know-how in production and use of new weapons. Most American military aid to Britain since World War has been Indirect rather than through direct shipments of American arms. Wilson and Sandys began their talks yesterday, along with their senior civilian experts in the fields of missiles, new weapons and research, They said the three purposes of the tajks were: to exchange views on the military situation, 1 2 to compare strategic thinking and 1 3 to explore the possibility of further cooperation in military research and "in other ways." The fact that Sandys was accompanied by top scientific and weapons experts rather than by military commanders emphasized that Britain has the scientific and research brains and willingness to push ahead with further explorations in missiles and atomic weapons.
