HAMLIN Alaska Defense Speed Expected WASHINGTON, Sept. 26. WP President Trumarrs Qlsclosure that Russia may have an atom bomb appears likely to speed up air defense planning without changing Its direction. This country's military leaders have long based their thinking on the possibility of Russia having the atom bomb. They gave 1952 as the date the bomb probably would be ready for military use by a foreign power. Friday's announcement Indi cates Russia may be well ahead of the estimated schedule. Among defense officials, especially air specialists, this news is consid ered likely to hasten the develop ment or tnese phases o( atomic air warfare planning: 1. The United States must push its Interceptor fighter program. 2. It must push the program for a radar detection screen.
