Montgomery Paints Terrifying
View of Guided Missile War
PARIS (Reuters)-Field Marshal Lord Montgomery painted a ter. riying picture of guided miuu. warfare Friday in which the .3,
minutes to take be destroyed. The deputy allied commander in
unter-action or
that the West's warning and air defence systems "must operate ex. tremely fast and must function as one system."
"A single authority with the power of instant decision is essen. tial if this is to happen."
Prototypes of inter - continental missiles will be ready by 1961, he said, and military commander, will have to face the prospect; of intercepting atomic missiles trav- elling 5.000 miles in 15 to 20 min. utes.
". . . If we are to survive a sur- prise attack, we must have a more effective defence'than we have to- day and it must react instantly to enemy attacks."
COMPLETE STUDY
Montgomery said that the mill. tary and civilian aspects of "mind
and nerve" war were studied by in
300 leading Allied officers for the first time in a Slit-day indoor es- e:cise recently.
The out tanding lesson of the ex-
world war in the nuclear use would prove devastating and would cause "untold misery" in millions of people.
Montgomery illustrated the dif- ficulties of intercepting long-range missiles by drawing a diagram on a blackboard. This showed that a missile fired at target 5.000 miles away could not be picked up by radar detection until it was well
of the earth screened it from the radar beams.
The only solution, he said, is to have radar stations along the prob- able path of any missile.
In any event, Montgomery said. the weed of future missiles will decrease the warning period "from hours to possibly minutes."
"it may be possible to detect an enemy missile somewhere along its Path. to compute that path, to fire an anti-missile missile, and to destroy or neutralize it somewh in space.
"All these operations will have to be done in minutes or the first enemy strike may be decisive."
Montgomery said that western Preparations for maintaining civil- n morale in nuclear war "are iolally 'adequate."
In a situation of nuclear equality between two sides. "that side will survive which has the best organ-
erollc. he Mid. was that another
ized home front."

In the Commons estimates com- mittee, the CCF member for Cape Breton South pointed to an ap- propriation for 315,000 as the fed- eral share of providing medical care for immigrants after they have found jobs but fallen sick.
A. H. Brown, deputy labor min-
later, said some L800 immigrants received such help last year. 185 of them because they had contracted tuberculosis. , . Mr. Glllis said he does not ob- ject to the government providing medical aid for immigrants but Canadian workers did not get any such help when they lost their jobs.
"One of pur workers out of a Job can die in the street before the federal or provincial governments wiil; pay his medical bills," he sa .
