Friday, August 2. 1957 London Disarmament Talks Not to Effect Military Cut-Backs Washington IPi No mat what the outcome of the London disarmament conference, U.S.; military forces are going to be, cut back. -- 1 The reason: The deciling buy ing power of the dollar has forced up defense costs. While disarmament negoti ators are haggling in London for some, token '"first step" reduc tion in arms and men. Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson has clamped a S38 billion spending limit on the military services. This would be at a level some S2.200,000,000 less than the cur rent annual spending rate of $40,200,000,000 on America's de senses. And more cuts are coming, Wilson said, because of "creep ing cost increases" resulting from inflation. He added that the grass roots sentiment of the country as reflected by Congress favors reducing defense outlays. The Effects. ' Asked at his press conference Thursday about the effect of the slash in America's military might, Wilson replied it ' still would produce a "reasonable minimum" of security. But he quickly added that the Pentagon would ultimately have to answer for, the big question of "what -is enough." He said the situation is helped by the fact that "the tempera ture of the world is down a lit tle," although he was not "down grading the threat" to world peace. The government is in a "cost bind," the defense chief said, and has to "back down" on some of its military spending gcals so as not to exceed the federal debt limit." Presidential Approval Wilson, who said his economy program has the approval of President Eisenhower, said more manpower cuts are coming on top of the. 100,000 men he had ordered dropped from the onili tary rolls by the end of the year. But he refused to say how many, although he hinted that future draft calls may drop as low as 7,000 men a month. This compared with the September quota of 8,000 men the lowest ENJOY GENUINE CHARCOAL BROILED FOODS in the ' CANDLE ROOM at thQ, Medford Hotel llir Sunday M EDFORD FOOTLIGHTERS - presents . . .

The secretary said, however, Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.) was :"only guessing" when Mansfield said he has heard ru mors an additional 230,000 mili tary men might be dropped. Congress is now expected to provide S36 billion in new de fense funds for the current fiscal year instead of the S38.500.000 000 requested. The two factors of inflation and congressional cuts make it "impossible" to stay within spending limits without reducing military pro grams 6 to 8 per cent, Wilson said.
