by ELIZABETH YOUNG
The United States Government is under severe pressure to authorise deployment of anti-ballistic-missile systems. Would this deployment initiate a new dimension in the arms race? Will progress towards a non-proliferation treaty and ether disarmament measures be hampered by this development? Are not the costs of missile defence systems still prohibitive? Is American deployment against China rather than Russia a viable distinction?
These and other questions are considered by Mrs. Yountt, author of Nations and Nuclear Weapons, who has studied the technical aspects as well as the political problems involved.
