By ELTON C. FAY
WASHINGTON 1 Secretary
of Defense Wilson totd Congress
Thursday he has ordered the high
command to make a "complete
and careful" new study of the mili
tary setup in view of changes in
weapons field and in the interna
tional situation.
He wants the picture of what
may be needed in the next three
years.
In testimony prepared for the
Senate Armed Services Commit
tee, Wilson also disclosed that mil
itary manpower will increase to
about 2,840,000 by the end of the
next fiscal year from the 2,814,000
estimated for June 30, the end of
the current year.
He also said that to provide a
"measure of flexibility" President
Kisenhower has authorized a man
power celling of 2,906,000 for the
next fiscal year. But Wilson said
use of that authority will be made
'only after complete justification
for need and mission."
Wilson emphasized the build-up
of the Air Force's strategic bomb
er fleet and the expanding guided
missile program.
He said a "major portion" of
procurement next year will be de
voted to new weapons, including
Marge sums for missiles."
During the coming fiscal year,
said Wilson, the Air Force will
complete its planned build-up to
137 wings, an increase of 10 over
present strength.
"The present planned build-up
of SAC (Strategic Air Command)
forces will be completed by June
30, 1956," Wilson said. "The me
dium bomber wings are already
fully equipped with B47 jets. In
the heavy bomber wings, major
emphasis is now being given to
the replacement of the B36 with
the new B52 long range jet bomb
er. By the end of the coming fiscal
year, a number of these wings will
have been converted to the BS2."
The Strategic Air Command is
2
MITATIOHS fL'Jl
understood to consist presently of
SO of the 54 wings planned under
tne 137 wing program. Under that
program, there eventually will be
11 wings of B52 heavy bombers.
At present there are about seven
wings of the piston-jet combina
tion BStis.
Wilson said that "conversion of
the B36 wings to B52s will be car
ried out "at an accelerated rate."
lie said, too, that "a substantial
number of jet tankers for air-to-air
refueling of the B52 bombers
is also included in the Air Force
program."
In announcing that large sums
for missiles will be included in the
buying program, Wilson said mis
siles "have been under accelerated
development for some time."
In addition to the B52 procure
ment program, Wilson said empha
sis is being placed on faster-than-sound
fighters the F8U and Fall
Navy planes and the F101, F102
and F104 Air Force fighters.
lie said the continental air de
fens? system "will continue to
grow in scope and effectiveness
during the coming liscal year.
In that connection he mentioned
' improvement and development of
radar sites in the United States
and. in cooperation with Canada,
j work on the mid-Canada and Dist
!ant Early Warning (DEW) line in
the Far North. The "Texas tow
' ers," which are being built out in
the sea at the edge of the conti
nental shelf, will be expanded
! steadily, Wilson said.
I He announced that the first seg
; ment of the new automatic warn
ing-aircraft control system, known
as "Sage," will "soon go into oper
ation." In this system data from warn-
! ing nets is fed automatically into
electronic computors and the in
formation is flashed immediately
to fighter planes and antiaircraft
I batteries.
j Here is the way Wilson de-
Slliut'U nr inaivcui planum i,n
services other than the Air Force
as of the end of the next fiscal
year:
Army 19 divisions. 10 regiments,
143 antiaircraft battalions. An in
fantry division will be converted
to an airborne division, to be used
special experiments with new
organizations, tactics and weap
ons." There will be an increase in
Army units armed with new weap
ons like the Honest John bombard
ment rockets.
Navy To have a total of 1.005
ships including 411 combatant ves
sels, compared with a present force
of 984 ships including 403 war
ships. Marine Corps Continue at three
divisions and three air wings.

House Subcommittee
Studying Newsprint Deal
WASHINGTON (.ft A House
subcommittee studying newsprint
supply problems is thinking about
calling in some publishers to hear
"their side of the story."
Rep. Klein (D-NY), the subcom
mittee chairman, said Wednesday
"we'd like to know what they'd
say to do in case of an emergency
when no newsprint was available."
A Commerce Department report
received by the group Tuesday
foresaw "an apparent substantial
deficit" of newsprint "for some
years to come."
Kelin said he would talk over
with the rest of his group the
idea of taking testimony from pub
lishers. The New Yorker said his sub
committee was concerned about the
small newspapers getting the news
print they needed.
