When YOUR Car Needs Attention Bring It To: Dick B. Miller Co. Solon Warns Of Possible Red Attack WASHINGTON UV-Sen. Jackson (D-Wash) cautioned today of "dan ger that Uie Soviets may fire a 1. 500-mile ballistic missile before the end of this year." He said the balance of world military power would shift against the West If the Soviet Union should win the "critical race" for develop ment of such an Intermediate. range missile and after that, an intercontinental missile with a 6.- 000-mlle range and the capability of carrying atomic destruction to me united males. Jackson's prepared Senate speech was planned as the opening round of a Democratic volley at administration defense policies. Lined up to Join In were Demo cratic Senators Mansfield of Mon tana, Kennedy of Massachusetts and Symington of Missouri, a for mer Air Force secretary. Jackson said America has "con. sistently underestimated" the So viets in the military and atomic ncios since World War II. He said there was need for a completely new defense philosophy, which he boiled down into these terms: "All-out work on critical projects today to avoid all-out war tomor row: . He proposed that: 1. The ballistic missile project should now proceed with the maxi mum effort of which this nation is capable, supported by the kind of urgency that heretofore Ameri cans have reserved for war-time conditions," and that: 2. "To Implement this objective, the ballistic missile program should be placed under a lull time plvillan administrator, re porting directly to the secretary of defense and to the President." Jackson heads a Senate-House Atomic Energy subcommittee on military applications, a group now hearing secret testimony of the nation's top military leaders on America's atomic status. He said the Importance of the 1,500-mile missile cannot be mini mized even though It could not reach this country from Commu nist bases. Such a weapon, he said, "would cancel out our one vital advantage over Russian alr-atomlc power our system of advanced overseas air bases," and might make them "virtually useless." Furthermore, he went on, the Intermediate - range missile could put many of America's free world allies up against "the threat of ballistic blackmail," since they would lie within Its reach. President Eisenhower, in his budget for fiscal 1957 starting July 1, Included $1,276,000,000 for missile development. This compares with 917 millions' for the current year. Jackson conceded tliere had been a stepup, but he told a reporter he believed more money is needed.
