In saying at a Moscow press conference Wednesday that the missiles "probably are on their way" home, Soviet Premier Khrushchev mentioned a figure of 40. That's the' minimum amount the navy will be look- ing for, the Pentagon said. The navy's mission is to con- firm what the defence depart- ment says a rial reconnais- sance photographs indicate -- "that medium - range ballistic missile and intermedia' ballistic missile equipment is being removed from Cuba.

He said also Canada should place a time limit on the under- taking not to acquire defensive nuclear weapons; and the sen- jor Canadian officer at 'fe North American Air Defence Command should be given the authority to place Canadian air defence forces on the alert when necessary. The adoption of these four points would indicate Canadian Solidarity with the United States in matters of North American security, Mr. Hogan Said. He was addressing a closed meeting of the Rosseau group, a study and research group of Conservative . minded young men, 'similar to the Bow Group in Britain. "There is a time to stand up to the Americans and there is a time to stand by them," he said. "'And I suggest that when the security of the North Amer- ican continent is menaced by the threat of nuclear attack, that is a time to stand by the Americans, clearly, swiftly and unequivocally."
