Dec. 14 (AP) -The committee for Economic Development estimates today that national security will cost at least $20,000,000,000 a year for years to come. In the face of this costly cold war defense, it urged definite action to (1) safeguard civilian supremacy in the republic (2) strengthen long-range security and (3) protect individual freedom.

The C. E. an organization of business executives, said the $20,000,000,000 estimate on the annual cost of security for the next several years embraces several items. Military defense is the big one, followed by rearming of non-Communist nations, European recovery spending, atomic energy development, United States broadcasts overseas, and much of the government's diplomacy and intelligence work. One of its principal recommendations was for a transfusion of civilian leadership intqf the whole security program.

The C. E. D. criticized today's policy and other matters have been credited with influencing Urges Stronger Resources Board Ihe report stated that the ffov- ernment's National Security Resources Board, set up to plan for defense mobilization, "has not ljx-ed up to its potential."

That the National Security Council the top committee of Cabinet officers which advises the President on security matters be enlarged by adding three full-time civilian members with no other Government responsibility.
