Schulz Russian Might Fast Growing In Sea and Air WASHINGTON (^-Warn ings about the growing power of Russia in the air and at sea were sounded in an an nual Defense Department summary report issued last night. Donald A. Quarles, Air Force secretary at the time the report was prepared and now deputy sec retary of defense, wrote that: “The Soviet Union is now able to inflict catastrophic damage on this country in a single day. The ability of our air defense system to meet this threat is steadily growing, but the threat also is growing—at an equal or possibly greater rate. We must anticipate the greatest threat of all to our national security — the Inter-Con tinental Ballistic Missile—and pre pare an effective defense against it.” From Charles Thomas, Navy sec retary who recently resigned, came this: “The Soviets have nuclear wea pons and guided missiles and are well aware of the importance of adapting them to shipboard use. The Soviet Union today is the sec ond ranking seapower in the world and moving up fast. The Red navy is developing rapidly far beyond defensive needs. It is designed not only to protect their sea frontiers from attack but to cut the sea communications of the free world and isolate our own and Allied for ces overseas. The Soviets have a large and growing submai’ine force, about 300, and they are building more.” BHS Girl Chosen For Science Honor Margaret Dehlinger, student at Stephen F.
