In an address prepared lor the American Municipal Assn., Wilson said the threat to world peace is continuing. He said there is no one 'danger dale" and no single form of possible enemy action to which delnnne should be directed. Because of Ihe destructlvcness ol modern weapons and the Increas ing efficiency of long-range planes and missiles, Wilson said, (he United Plates has renson. for the first time, to be "deeply con cerned" over the serious damage a sudden attack could millet. "We must, therefore, maintain the capability to deter an enemy from attack nd to blunt thnt at tack If it comes by a combina tion of elfrctlve retaliatory power and a continental defense system of steadily Increasing elfectlve- ness.

Abbott Case Strategy Told OAKLAND (UP) Defense attor ney Harold Hove summoned all his skill today in an attempt to discredit the story of a veteran police officer who headed the In vesication of the Stephanie Bryan murder. The officer. Inspector Charles O'Meara of the Berkeley police force, was a prosecution witness in Ihe trial of Burton W. Abbott, 27, an accounting student accused of murdering the teen-age school girl. When court adjourned for the long holiday last Wednesday, Hove had just begun his cross-examination of O'Meara. The questioning then promised a battle of wits between the two. Hove was with the FBI from 1940-1946 and after that operated an Oaaland private detective firm. He Is a graduate of Gonzaga Uni versity and a member of the Ala- neia city Council. O'Meara has served nearly 20 years on the Berkeley police force. In his lengthy direct testimony, he descrioed without notes the scene at the Abbott home on the night of July 15. That was the night that Abbott's wife, Georgia, 32, found H-ycnr-old Stephanie's purse In the base ment of their home. This discovery touched off a renewed search for the girl which resulted In the find ing of her body near Abbott'3 Trin ity County cabin five days later.
