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.

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.
