existence of the cruise missile szollosy said will heighten rather than lessen the threat of nuclear exchange he charged that use of cana dian air space for testing purposes or face econo mic sanctions is the con tinuation of strongarm tac tics by the us a he de scribed the cruise as m- siduously undetectable due to its groundhugging capabilities it puts the soviets on the defensive he said they wouldnt know of its location until its too late while the soviet union szollosy said has indicated a desire to protect only its own boundaries the united states has involved itself in conflicts thousands of miles distant from its homeland the us he stated has an estimated 540000 troops at 200 strategic bases around the world there isnt really a big fear from the russian bear he declared szollosy urged the dis tribution of antitest in formation through the chur ches and the high schools he also advocated parti cipation in peace walks dr eoin mackay of st pauls presbyterian
