Pentagon Says Defense Costs To Grow Bigger
The Pentagon forecasts defense costs may rise, saying the current program is the minimum for national safety and could need upward adjustment. It notes high costs, tax increases, industry shifts from civilian to military production, and possible civilian shortages as the force grows toward 3.6 million. The report cites monthly deliveries rising from 500 million to 1.5 billion, with 4 billion expected in early 1953.
