Defense Budget
Kennedy Request Tops Proposal
Of Eisenhower by $1 .9 Billion
(Continued from Pag 1)
The revised military spend
ing plan for the fiscal year
starting July 1 totalled J43.8
billion, including Kennedy's
new $650 million proposals
plus upward revisions of
former Eisenhower adminis
tration estimates which he
claimed were too low.
i A record for any year ex
cept in World War II, the
boosted arms outlay would
throw the government's over
all fiscal 1962 budget a fur
ther $890 million out of kilter
for a total deficit of $2.7 bil
lion. Still more may be needed
in, later years, Kennedy said,
although he hoped to achieve
economies in the "full reap
praisal" of defense still under
way. $650 Million Increase
.To finance his proposals in
fiscal 1962 and future years,
Kennedy asked Congress to
appropriate $1,954 billion
more than the $41.84 billion

that former President Dwight
D. Eisenhower proposed just
before leaving office. The
$650 million increase is for
spending in fiscal 1962 oniy.
Even with that increase, the
President found it necessary
to slash $430 million from
present programs.. He killed
outright the 15-year-old nu
clear aircraft project on which
$1 billion has been spent. He
cut the 2,000 m.p.h. B70
bomber to the bone, leaving
it a research project instead
of a weapons development. He
cancelled plans to put Polaris
missiles on the nuclear cruiser
Long Beach.
He cancelled two of the
planned 14 squadrons of liq
uid fueled Titan interconti
nental missiles on grounds he
could buy more of the faster
firing solid-fueled Minuteman
missiles in the same time
period. . .
Asserting that the "primary

his revised military plan on
two main concepts:
-To develop a missile and
bomber retaliatory force that
is so well protected, in mobile
or hard, underground sites,
that even after receiving a
surprise nuclear blow the Uni
ted States could strike back
"with devastating power."
-To strengthen limited war
forces - with new convention
al weapons, a new type of
short -takeoff fighter plane,
better sea and airlift - to pre
vent the free world's security
from "being slowly nibbled
away at the periphery." He
said such non-nuclear wars
and guerilla actions have been
"the most active and constant
threat" since 1943.
Kennedy's proposals were
more moderate than expected
on the basis of longstanding
Democratic criticism of the
former GOP administration.
One New Battle Group
In military manpower, he
proposed an increase of just
13,000 to a new total of 2,306,
000 - much less than had been
widely forecast. Instead of
any new divisions, the Army
would get 5,000 men for one
new battle group and in
creased guerilla units. The
Marines would increase by

Besides the missile build-up,
Kennedy proposed two meas
ures for protecting the na
tion's retaliatory strength.
Half the Strategic Air Com
mand's estimated 1,600 bomb
ers will be kept on ground
alert ready for lS-mlnute

million will be spent to hasten
development of the Midas
satellite, designed to give 30
minutes warning of a missile
attack.
Should Increase Goal
The star of the piece, how
ever, was the Polaris missile
and its nuclear-powered sub
marine. Kennedy earmarked
$1.34 billion of the total re-,
quest for $1,094 In new ap
propriations for the Polaris
program alone. It would be
spent over the next four
years. , ' .
He said the present goal of
19 Polaris subs should be in
creased to 29 and they should
all be at sea by . 1965, two
years earlier than possible at
present building rates. '..
"The -"sooner they are on
station, the safer we will be,"
he said. Two are on station
.now, with 16 missiles each.

Natural Resource
Committee Plans'
Special Meeting
Salem - IUPD - The House
Committee on Natural Re
sources tentatively gave the
green light Monday to a bill
permitting private industry to
be allowed to drill for oil on
Oregon's submerged lands.
The stale has 600,000 acres
of offshore lands extending
from the coast three miles out
to sea. k . ;
The committee labored for
three hours Monday afternoon
over numerous amendments
and voted to have the bill re
printed. Chairman Clinton P. Haight
Jr. (D-Baker) said he will call
a special meeting when the
reprinted bill is returned later
in the week.
Passage Predicted
He predicted passage by
both the House and Senate.
"It's a good bill," he said.
"Every possible safeguard is
written into it and we feel
Oregon's coast and its re
sources are fully protected."
William H. Hedlund of
Portland, attorney for seven
companies in the Western Oil
and Gas association, said
there are items in the bill
"we're not keen about, but
we think we can live with it."
The bill would allow the
Oregon Land Board to lease
slices of the tidelands for oil
exploration. The slices would
be six miles along the coast
line and three miles seaward,
about 13,000 square feet.
The committee rejected an
industry request to reduce the
proposed minimum annual
rental fee of 50 cents an acre
to 20 cents. Fifty cents is what
the federal government and
most other states demand.
. The state would collect
royalties on any oil fund.
Oih.r Highlights
Dentists - The House Ju
diciary committee had a hear
ing on a Senate-approved bill
which opponents say is design
ed to prevent dentists from
advertising. The Oregon Den
tal association disagrees, say
ing that new powers the bill
would grant to the State
Board of Dental examiners
would merely allow dentists
to "police" the profession.
Health - The Senate State
and Federal Affairs commit
tee voted out "do pass" a bill
giving the governor more
leeway in making appoint
ments to the State Board of
Health.
Elections - The House Elec
tions committee approved
House Speaker Robert Dun
can's request to prepare a bill
moving the Oregon primary
election from May to Sep
tember. Duncan says the six
month campaign from May to
the November general elec
tion is too long.
Moonlighting - A bill to
permit public employees to
hold more than one job with
their employers' consent fail
ed in the Senate 13-13. It
would have removed the ban
against moonlighting in Mult
nomah county.
Apportion - The House
voted 36-22 in favor of a Re
publican - rural backed reap
portionment plan that would
make little change in the
present legislative makeup.
Gravel Operators
Opposed To Bill
Salem-IUPD-Snnd and gravel
operators bitterly opposed
Monday a bill that one
spokesman said discriminates
against them because they
poke into streams that may
be near fish spawning beds.
The House Fish and Game
Committee had a hearing on
HB1637 which would require
any public body to check
with the State Fish Commis
sion before issuing dredging
permits.
Fish conservationists have
complained gravel operators
arc tearing out valuable
spawning beds.
Howard Hinsdale of Reeds
port, owner of the Umpqua
River Navigation Co., ques
tioned the amount of damage
that is being done to salmon
by gravel operators.

eral Power commission has
given permission to the Cali
fornia Oregon Power Co.
Medford, Ore., to build a $6
million earth-fill dam on the
Klamath river instead of
two stage concrete arch dam.
The FPC Monday amended
a license issued to permit the
change in the Iron Gate Hy
droelectric Project on the
Klamath river in Siskiyou
County, Calif.
The firm's original license
called for a reinforced con
crete arch dam about 65 feet
high which would cost $1,835
000. The utility planned to in
crease the height of the dam
to 170 feet in 1967 and build a
powerhouse with a generating
capacity of 25,000 kilowatts.
The change in the license
now calls for a $6,585,330
earth-fill dam 173 feet high
creating a reservoir of 58,000
acre feet and with power
house capacity of 18,000 kilowatts.

"It's unlikely Carole will
