Sept. 20 ID-Sec retary of defense Wilson today posed 1he"possfl)iJiljrThate "Air Force s 137 wing goal may be re duced, but that the number of planes in wings may be increased. To news conference Questions. Wilson said the "whole matter" of the number of planes in wings and the number of wings is "open for consideration." Wilson told questioners that "no numbers are sacrasanct" and he thought the whole matter should be presented in its entirety. The Air Force had set next June 30 as the date for reaching its 137 wing goal. Wings now range from 45 to 75 planes each, de pending on the type of plane. The Air 1 Force now haa about 131 wings. - Wilson recalled that the Air Force bad announced recently it was increasing the number of bombers in a B52 wing from 30 to 45.' He said that so far there has been "no formal conclusion" on another proposal to hike the numb er of heavy bomber wings from It to 17, but that it is under con sideration either in the air force or by the Joint chiefs of staff. Wilson was asked would oth er wings, ia addition to the B52s, be "beefed up" by adding more planes. He replied this matter was included in the broad questions under survey. The defense chief was asked about published reports that the Belt X2 experimental rocket plane has attained a record altitude of 126.000 feet and a record speed of about 1,900 miles-per-hour. Wilson said "that happens to be one of the things that rightly or wrongly, we think we talk too much about." He said be did not care to make anr answer that would give authenticity to the re ports. However, later be was asked if he could verify a statement that the XI has flown higher and fast er than any other airplane and Wilson replied Some very responsible people have said that, so I think I could say that." Wilson was asked about the crash in California on Monday of B53 which killed five men and resulted in an order yesterday grounding all BS2s pending result of an investigation. He referred the question to Brig. Gen. A. J. Kin ney, Air Force chief of public in formation, who was present. , Kinney said the cause of the crash has not been determined. But he answered with a flat "no" when asked if then was any reas on to suspect sabotage.
