authorities including the gov ernor of the bank of canada now agree that onl manufac tunng can provide the emplo ment the production and taxes required to sustain some 18 million canadians upon trtie

slemon who as deputy commander in chief at north american air defence com roand headquarters in colorado springs was in charge of the norad war room in the sence of his chief on by one signals flashed before slemon and his u s canadian staff warnings from a fantastic new missile spotting radar complex in greenland that massive missile attack was on its way and there was not a second to spare because if h were an attack then the retaliatory power of the usaf had to be turned loose but first it had to be determined and in seconds whether this was really what it appeared to be swifty from men at his side slemon ascertained that rus sian premier krusahev was then in new york at the un that intelligence reports had gi jen no hint of a russian of fensive that no other radar sj stems such as the dewline i reporomc aottrity be knew that the greenland system was new and could conceivably go haywire he could see that signals which would predict where the missiles weak land were not showing anything neither were the signals that would ashis the speed of in incoming missiles from these and other swiftlygathering pie ces of evidence slemon conclu ded in 60 seconds that this was not an attack in flv minutes norad knew what bad happened they had estimated the range of the new radar at 3 000 milei instead it had been powerful enough re peatedly to pick up the rising moon a quarter of a million miles away it has since been uugbt to reject moon echoes hubbell summed up did we nearly start a nuclear war by accident it wasnt even dose there was not a single moment when air marshal slemon felt possessed of enough evidence even to warrant advancing the state of alert of our air def ence forces or to advice sac the retaliatory american stra tegic air command to step up is alert and even if he had neither norad nor sac can trigger the retaliatory forces only the president of the us can furthermore after sac s alert force has been directed towards targets in the soviet union if at a given point this force had not received an ad ditional code word over a fool proof communications system every bomber would turn back but so quickly and accurately did roy slemon assaj the
