Senate panel urges extra funds to modernize army
Sen. Henry M. Jackson urged Congress to provide 600 million dollars to modernize the Army amid Russia’s response to the U-2 incident. He warned current equipment is largely World War II vintage and said Russia outpaces the U.S. in modern weapons. Frank E. Moss backed restoring 294 million for the Bomarc B missile and asked 75 million for two Bomarc IB bases in the Northwest.
