U S Says NATO Holds Edge in Nuclear Delivery Capacity
Gen Alfred Gruenther told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that the United States far outpaces the Soviet Union in delivering nuclear weapons due to overwhelming air power. He noted Soviet land forces are strong but their navy is weaker, with emphasis on submarines, and that Soviet capacity to deliver a bomb is limited and costly to develop. He warned Soviet satellite forces in Eastern Europe lag in quality and reliability, tying morale to agriculture and heavy industry.

Site search narrows for AEC headquarters region
Sen Butler says the Atomic Energy Commission has narrowed its site search for a new headquarters to a zone between Frederick Maryland and Leesburg Virginia. The area covers Poolesville Germantown Boyds and a Virginia section near Leesburg about 18 to 20 miles from Washington. Accessibility to Washington is a prime factor as Congress considers up to 10 million dollars for a single headquarters.
