missile problem' In YiSW of the newness of the missile art in general, and
the rapid technological change inherent in the current state of the art, we
question the definition of the missiles to be considered for control. It
might well be that further study would show that some other definition
might be more to the US advantage. We do not know that this will be so, but
feel that the problem is too important to allow the US position to become
fixed an the basis of the study done so far.
144 also feel that a call for the elimination of missiles already fabri-
cated is open to the same objections that we raise to the Soviet proposal
to eliminate 611 nuclear weapons. Namely, we feel that both proposals
are .:probably equally uninspectable. If our missile elimination proposal were
accepte0, the 1133R might be able to retain a clandestine missile capability
in, view of their large supply of missiles already built, Furthermore, if
we advance thib proposal, the US',Ai, might be able to say that we could equally
well accepttheir proposal for the elimination of nuclear weapons. This we
should avoid"
IneVe
We feel that, in general. Soviet development of4cissiles is probably
far ahead of the counterpart US effort and that a cesetion of missile
development and testing in the next year or two might leave the USSR with
an unacceptable advantage over the US in its knowledge of the missile art.
