U S Air Chief Sees US Edge in Global Arms Balance
General Thomas D. White, Air Force chief, told the National Press Club that the United States holds a much stronger overall defense posture than the Soviet Union and may have a slight edge in strategic missiles. He urged a single command over all U S strategic forces and backed the Polaris system as a force multiplier. He also floated a super joint command for air and naval long range weapons and asserted current law could allow it without new legislation. The general cautioned public debate on limited wars should not undercut national strength.
