Chairman Vinson (D-Ga) des- cribed the huge authorization mea- sure as “the largest single mili- tary construction bill ever sub- mitted to the Congress in peace or war."” He said there is more to come, as the bill is tailored to require- ments of a: 3,000000-man armed force and a 95-wing air force. Vinson himself this week urged expansion to a 163-wing air arm and two additional giant aircraft carriers. *During World War Two there was no threat of hostile bombing to this nation,” said Vinson. “Today we face a vastly differ- | ent situation. Russia has the at- om_ bomb and. the capability to drop it within continental United " States, He said much has been done in | building - up:a radar warning | screen and establishing fighter in- {Yereeptor bases, but more needs to be done to build up bases for the huge intercontinental bombers f the strategic air command. jof thi The major portion of proposed | !
