In addition, the Navy laid out plans for a major new submarine program, the Undersea Long-range Missile System, which would become operational in the late 1970s. Some 60 per cent of the Pentagon budget currently goes for personnel, operations and maintenance.

In a statement to the Senate June 24, Stennis noted that in "ordinary times" there is no need for anything approaching the $.5 million man force. "I am also convinced that the surest, quickest and most effective way to reduce the tremendous military budget is to reduce the number of military personnel. "Since military pay and allowances alone now account for about one-third of overall military expenditures," he added, "the budget will go down rapidly as the size of the force is decreased." A week later, in a lengthy de fense of past Pentagon weapons ex penditures, Stennis said "I think we would make a mistake not to have frontline weapons. We must have the best." Stennis is known to feel the na tion's security is more dependent on up-to-date weapons than on a large standing force. A cutback in troops would include, in addition to Vietnam, a substantial reduction in the U.

S. force in Europe. This level has been under fire in the Senate because of its drain on the U. S. balance of payments as well as the feeling that Europeans should as sume a larger share of their defense, i Pearl S.

This is the clear message of two recent statements by Sen.

John Sten- nis, chairman of the Armed Services Committee, and from back ground discussions with other key congressional defense experts. They indicate a million-man cut back in the 3.5 million man mili tary establishment would save some $10 billion annually of the $80 billion the Pentagon now spends. Between this sum and the antici pated decline over the next few years in the $25 billion annual cost of the Vietnam war, more than enough funds would be available to pay for new missile systems long-range bombers, submarines and even the controversial Safeguard missile defense program. It would mean most of the $10 billion annual fiscal dividend the extra government revenue available from the growth of the economy could be channeled into domestic projects. Hearings last year by the Senate preparedness subcommittee laid the basis for increased spending over the next decade for military hardware, especially on items deferred in recent years because of war costs.

The current Pentagon budget includes go-ahead funds for the Advanced Manned Strategic Aircraft, a new bomber long sought by the Air Force; and to convert land-based Minuteman II intercontinental ballistic missiles and tea-based Polarises COLUMBIA PICTURES PRESENTS nnnn Sayreite Attends Claims Seminar David Sheldon of 302 N.
