said today U. S. nuf lear weap

But it indicated at the same
time in a report to Congress
that this country still lacks
special nuclear warheads for
long-range missiles and for
anti-missile missiles to coun
ter Soviet weapons.
It hopes to remedy this lack
to some extent in the nuclear

Pacific. But missile warheads
canont go into production
ahead of the missiles, and this
country has not yet perfected
either long - range rocket
weapons or short-range de
fenses against enemy missiles
Mostly Bombs
Presumably the bulk of
weapons in the U. S. stock
pile are bombs of various
sizes, and weapons of differ
ent calibers for the many tac
tical guns and rockets devel
oped before Russia's massive
Sputniks focused fearful at
tention upon the threat of in
tercontinental ballistic mis
siles. Russia says she possesses
missiles capable of delivering
hydrogen warheads in less
than 30 minute on targets
more than 6,000 miles away.
This country is still trying to
develop .them.
In its 24th semi-annual re
port, the AEC said that in the
past six months its production
of the explosive materials for
nuclear weapons "exceeded
the goals."
As a result of past tests, it
said, "weapons models have
been improved and new types
of weapons smaller, more
efficient, more rugged, and
more immediately ready
have been developed."
On Minutes' Notice
Some of the new weapons
are going into the arsenal
now. Others, scheduled for
production, are being proof
tested in the Pacific. Still
others, including big and lit
tle hydrogen weapons "with
greatly reduced radioactive
fallout" for both offensive
and defensive use, are being
nut through "exploratory
tests."
A major aim of its current
efforts, the AEC said, is devel
opment of "smaller, immedi
ately ready that is, ready
within minutes and more
rugged weapons for use in
more advanced weapons sys
tems."
This apparently was a ref
erence to warheads for mis
siles, still in the future, which
must be able to blast off with
only a few minutes' advance
notice.
But missiles and their war
heads can't be designed inde
pendently. For that reason,
the AEC is working closely
with the Defense Department
"so that the missile warhead
will be an integrated part of
a weapon system and ready
when the missile system is
ready.

City of Albany Sues Linn County For Tax Money
Albany (UPD The City
of Albany today filed a suit
for $33,724 against Linn coun
ty, and the county's district
attorney promptly said that
if the case went to trial a
counter claim " of $74,112
would be filed against the
city.
, Merle Long, city attorney,
filed the suit in Circuit Court,
listing 12 separate years in
which the county allegedly
failed to return tax money
from a general road fund that
had been allocated to it by
state law.
The city claims money was
collected by the county under
a general road fund tax, and
state law provides that at
least 50 per cent of this tax
levied in cities should be ap
portioned to the cities.
Overpayment Claimed
Linn county collected a gen
