secretary of state has ordered a re-evaluation of US plans to sell Saudi Arabia 2000 sophisticated air-to-air Sidewinder missiles State department and congressional sources say The re-evaluation while short of a reversal represents a sudden and major change to plans At the beginning of the week he had ordered aides to draft a letter formally notifying Congress of the $57 7-million sale However the secretary changed his mind Tuesday night the sources said after some members of the House and Senate said they would fight the arrangement and the White House expressed concern over the political study cm grounds that 'the Saudis already are well-equipped for their defense The memo also raises questions about the possibility that the Saudis would transfer some Sidewinders to other Arab nations in the event of a new Middle East war Current US law prohibits such third-country transfers but Rosenthal said there is little the United States can do to prevent such movement The particular version of the Sidewinder is the American- but is easily adapted to be carried by the Soviet-built MIG and the French Mirage Both these planes are used extensively by Arab nations The White House intervention came when it became clear that sup porters both in and out erf Congress were ready to make a big fight just as President Ford is preparing his final effort to win the Republican presidential nomination ramifications Rep Benjamin Rosenthal (D-NY) for instance sent Kissinger a letter arguing that Saudi Arabia does not need tiie missiles and that the deal "would exacerbate the arms in the Middle East Because of the size of the sale the administration must submit the arrangement to Congress which can disapprove the transaction Rosenthal told Kissinger he would sponsor a resolution of disapproval and "will work vigorously to the transaction Sen Clifford Case (R-N-J) Sen Abraham A Ribicoff (D-Conn) and Sen Richard Stone (D-Fla) among others have expressed similar sentiments Doubts about the sale also came from the US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency which has questioned the arrangement since its inception In recent days the arms control agency has circulated a memorandum in
