Defense possible United Press International WASHINGTON — Defense Sec retary Harold Brown Thursday raised the prospect of a U.S.-Soviet Persian Gulf confrontation, and said gains in Moscow’s weaponry include accelerated missile improvements, a new bomber and a large nuclear warship. Brown’s annual review of U.S. de fense posture was released as he went before the Senate Armed Serv ices Committee to start hearings on $135.5 billion in proposed Pentagon programs for 1980 and beyond. His report urged approval of the $30 billion M-X strategic missile, the “midi-sized” aircraft carrier in stead of a bigger ship, and measures to increase firepower in Europe. Referring to the Iran crisis. Brown said “deteriorating regional conditions” and growing costs of its own energy supplies could propel Moscow “toward various forms of intervention in the Middle East —moves that would produce world-wide repercussions.” He said more than 20 Soviet di visions and 400 aircraft in striking distance of Iran have so far made no threatening moves, but “we cannot preclude the possibility of outside intervention following from these internal disruptions.” “Their intervention could well require a U.S. response,” he said. Brown said he was not suggesting such events are likely, but represent a hypothetical case which “provides a measure of the capability of our forces. The defense secretary said the Soviets are introducing new strategic missiles and warheads “more rapidly than we expected a year ago,” making the nuclear war fare balance “less favorable than we would wish” by 1982. ‘Longshorepersons’ are unloading boats in New York Harbor United Press International NEW YORK — The docks of New York and New Jersey soon may have their first “longshorepersons. ” Women will receive about 100 of 750 temporary longshoremen’s permits issued between now and Feb. 5, marking the first time in the history the port women have been granted the right to ^work at the docks. The permits will allow the 750 workers to join work crews laboring in the holds of ships and unloading bananas, a spokesman for the bi state Waterfront Commission said. About 10 women received per mits Monday when the commission began distributing them. THE BATTALION Page 7 FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1979 secretary sees U.S.-Soviet clash Basing for the M-X — probably either underground shelters or high-flying airplanes — would be no more costly than scrapping the entire ICBM system and going to larger numbers of cruise missiles and submarine missiles, he said. Brown also said, “The first pro totype of a new, modern long-range Soviet bomber may be rolled out in the near future.” Other documents indicated it is a swing-wing, faster- than-sound intercontinental range plane — similar to the canceled U.S. B-l — that would be opera tional in 1983. He said the Soviets are now build ing their third carrier for vertical takeoff aircraft and “what could be a nuclear-powered cruiser displacing over 20,000 tons is being fitted out in the Baltic. It would be their first nuclear surface warship and double the size of present Soviet cruisers. ‘Bernie” Catfish & “Clyde” Chicken Have A Special For You ...
