Scrapping of Skybolt Missile Program By Administration Couid Result in Congressional Retaliation Washington - IUPU - The ad ministration was threatened today with the possibility of congression retaliation if it scraps the Skybolt missile. Sen. Stuart Symington (D- cussed by President Kennedy and Prime Minister Harold Macmillan when they meet in Nassau Wednesday and Thursday. The official U.S. position on Skybolt is that no decision Mo.) said Sunday that unless; has yet been reached on its arguments for cancelling the Skybolt program were truly convincing "this would affect many other programs that the administration might like to see go through Congress." Symington obviously did not think the administration could justify killing Skybolt. He said that if the Skybolt was discarded he could not see "a future for the Air Force." He noted that the Russians have developed anti aircraft missiles that are able to shoot down bombers be fore they reach their targets. The Skybolt is an air-to-ground missile. It is fired from a plane, as far as 1,000 miles from target. The warning by Symington, one of Congress' most influ ential military specialists, add ed a second front to the Sky bolt controversy. British officials have react ed sharply to reports that the United States will abandon the missile which is being de veloped jointly by both coun tries. Britain has counted on the missile to be the backbone of its nuclear strike force. Topic for Discussion The issue is expected to be among the chief topics dis- future. U.S. military experts contend the program has been costly and has not yet pro duced worthwhile results. Kennedy said at his news conference last Wednesday that the Skybolt missile was "the most sophisticated weap on imaginable'' and involved "the kind of engineering that's beyond us." But he acknowl edge that the British had a right to take part in any de cision that is made about the missile's future. 1 . - l5f For Fair, Efficient Strvict CU: it LASMc or from Oakland, San Francisco, Lot Angeles and Other California Points Call Jack Fitzgerald 773-7761 oooooo o o S BMWsheo 1896 OIQQlV wiggly. 5 .
