Leslie R. Groves rives his views in an interview with UPI correspondent James L. Kilrallen. By JAMES L. KILGALLEN United Press International NEW YORK (UPI> — The United States, according to Lt. Gen. Leslie R. Groces, USA (retired), is being “outclassed," as far as world opinion goes, in the field of scientific weapon development. Groves can speak with authority on this subject. He was formerly head of the wartime atom bomb project and is now vice president of Remington Rand, a division of 1 Sperry Corp., with offices i at Stamford, Conn. When I asked Groves for his ■ comment on world conditions, he i replied “What can one say today?" Then he added:

i “We certainly are being outclassed, as far as world opinion goes; in the field of scientific weapon development. The major objective of our military establishment should be to prevent a war, particularly an all-out war, and the secondary objective is to win any war that cpmes our way." The best way to avoid war, he declared, “is to have the leaders of other nations —particularly Russia—fully convinced that if war comes they will be defeated.” Disappointed in Leadership “We will strengthen this feeling i in the Kremlin, if the leaders and I the people of other nations feel that we will win,” Groves said. “With military defeat bearing • such tragic results on any nation, ’ no leader will,* if he can prevent I it, ever choose the losing side.

“This means that if the Kremi lin feels that the other nations are : convinced that we would win then ' the Kremlin will count on other nations supporting us in the time of war, and the likelihood of war I will be decreased.” i Groves is known nationally and internationally for his service in i connection with the Manhattan i atomic bomb project, which he • headed beginning in 1942. almost ' from its inception. He remained head of the project until January 1, 1947. ! “As one who is no longer fully I informed on advanced military 1 weapons, I cannot say who is ahead, but I do say that I am > quite disappointed in the way that , our leadership in such matters t seem to have frittered away,” he said.
