Defence

OTTAWA (CP) — The major‘ problem facing the defence de- partment is keeping down costs, informants said .\ionday.

The main object is not to re

keep it from shooting through its current ceiling of about $1,725.-

000.000 a year.

Defence Minister Pearkes has already started eliminating sec-l ondary defence projects to make‘-‘ room costs of new equipment. Every-I thing that doesn’t have an imme- diate and direct bearing on the defence of Canada or on Cana- dian commitments 'to N ‘ out.

MARK VI GONE

Ten days ago. Mr. Pearkes an- nounced scrapping of plans produce the Mank VI version of the CF-1(1) jet interceptor. This program would have cost some $l00.000,00t)h the next four years.

informants said it is doibtiul that a similarly large saving can be made anywhere else in the de- p rtm

millions." one source said. The program to arm the CF-100

sile Sparrow has been aban- doned. Instead. this am w" be stretched out so that the mis- sile‘s production will coincide with production of the sipersonic CF-105 Arrow.

e no t that it will purchase either the Arrow or the Sparrow.

The defence policy of the Progressive Conservative govern- ment can e summ p th way:

I-‘EAR SUlS—BOMBERS

if war comes. there is a strong

likelihood that Canada would be

If a "small" war broke out. say in the Middle East. the Canadian army would have to move troops

in fast. And it would also be eie wor- pected 9

This, incidentally. is a clear in- dication of the serious view th

taken on a priority basis. is is the reason for the de- creased emphasis an the militia

is as a means to raise troops as

it

did in the First a-nd Second World Wars. , '

The defence department consid-

militia to raise troops and se them overseas. Thus the militia is being converted to civil de- fence.

There ia no intention here that.
