General White Warns Russian Power Growing Ability To Strike With Air-Atomic Weapons Growing WASHINGTON W — A top Air Force general said today that Russia’s ability to strike the United States with air-atomic weapons is increasing "steadily and rapidly.” Gen. Thomas D. White, vice chief of staff, also bared Air Force plans for dispersing combat units widely in the United States to reduce their vulnerability to sudden attack. White was die leadoff speaker at a jet-age conference sponsored by the Air Force Assn. One thousand government, industry, military and education pleaders were invited. America’s retaliatory forces, White said, “will be deployed to enough bases so that a potential attacker could never hope to destroy enough of our bombers to prevent our decisive retaliation.” The general thus made it clear that the problem of noise from military jet aircraft, one of the ’ prime topics of the jet-age con- ‘ ference, will be a continuing one. IHe acknowledged that aircraft noise is “the greatest single point of friction” between the Air Force and communities near its bases, i The. conference also heard of steps, being taken to hold down the ! noiW level of big commerical jet ; transports going into service in another two years and heard dei scribed the civil aeronautics’ plans i for easing the air traffic control problem. Other speakers told of the growing economic importance of commerical airports of cities and of the need for non-airline airports to support so-called “general avia- | tion” which is growing by leaps and bounds. White said that moving airports from population centers has proved of little value because on airbase is a big business which quickly spawns new communities. Air defense bases and fields used by reservists must in any case be nearer towns and important target areas, he said. The general, warning of Russia’s growing atomic power, said that this nation's retaliatory forces would be only the "crews, bombs and bombers that would escape” th® first enemy attack. Me said that the Strategic Air Cptyimand’s bombers must be dispersed over more bases as a means of strengthening their deterrent oower without increasing their number.
