pledged three Polaris submarines at present on patrol In the Mediterranean. PLEDGES CONTRIBUTION Britain committed a number of medium-range bombers, its 180-plane force ol long-range bombers, and four Polaris- armed nuclear subs expected to come Into service, four or five years from now. The proposed force may be the forerunner of a multi-lateral nuclear force with submarines and surface ships manned by mixed crews and with firing control exercised collectively by the contributing governments.

An Interim report may be ready by December. The allied nuclear force will give additional strike capacity and greater diversity to Gen.
