Lt.- Gen. Simonds Agrees U. S. View Hampers Defence

4* TORONTO (CP)-—Lt.-Gen. Guy

Simonds, former chief of the army general staff said Monday he agreed that United States se- curity measures prevented an in- tegrated system for defence re- search, development and some production between Canada and -the U.S. ,

In an interview, Gen. Simonds said this situation existed not only between Canada and -the U.S. but also between the U.S. and all countries of the North Atlantic

- Treaty Organization.

“This has been obvious in the development of atomic weapons,” Gen. Simonds said.

The original charge on which Gen. Simonds commented was made by Group Capt. C. B. Lim- brick,‘ in an article in the current

issue of the Canadian trade mag-‘

azine, Aircr-aft. Group Capt. Lim- brick retired last year as RCAF director of guided missiles and special weapons and of radio war- fare. .

“U.S. security policy has been extremely effective in preventing these (integration) efforts from being successful,” the article

said. _

Gen. Simonds also commented on statements by Group Capt. Limbrick that “many millions of dollars worth” of U.S. - m de equipment “is being used in an- ada by U.S. and Canadian forces that could have been produced here at home."

PUSHED INTO BUYING '

The general said: “At the ti-me of the Korean crisis, we were stampeded into large purchases of U.S. equipment on the argu- ment of the value of standardiza- tion. ‘

“These measures in total obvi- ously made us more and more dependent on the decisions taken in Washington and less capable of making ‘independent decisions of our own. q

“Commercial ‘considerations in the U.S. made it from their (the U.S.) P°lnt of view very much more desirable that the U.S. should be the suppliers of mili- tary equipment than we should supply ourselves.

“These large-scale purchases havepcontinued since the Korean crisis.”

‘SYDNEY (CP) — Union and management voiced hope for im- provement a-nd expansion in the Nova Scotia steel industry during 1958 in yearend messages issued Tuesday night.

Crawford Gordon Jr., president of A. V. Roe Canada Ltd., said it is hoped 1958 will be “a reason- ably good” year for the Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation and “associated compania.” Roe won control of DOSCO in 1957.

“The pace of business activity in the steel industry is somewhat slower than it was at the begin- ning of 1957," Mr. Gordon said. “We nevertheless expect 1958 will be a reasonably good one . . .”

INTERPRETING THE NEWS .

By ALAN HARVEY Canadian Prss Staff Writer Some NATO officers feel the North Atlantic alliance has just defeated a case of jitters as dangerous as the paralysis of will suffered when Hitler invaded the Rhineland in 1936. ‘

Then the democracies faltered, and war came three years later.

posite c o u r s e. Despite Nikita Khrushchev’s missile - brandish- ing, despite deep—set doubts and‘ fears in its own camp, NATO is going to put the nuclear ‘deter- rent in Europe.

Those who applaud this deci- sion,'taken at NATO’s summit meeting in Paris, say the really important.fact is a tendency to- ward appeasement amounting to a nuclear-age neurosis—has been resisted.

NATO’s nuclear armament will be a gradual process. The ballis- tic missiles are not perfected and the nuclear warheads are not available in quantity. The build- up may take five years or_ more, and while it goes, on there will be renewed talks with ‘-Russia.
