Dulles conceded that Russia has "some lead" on the United States in the missile field, but expressed the conviction that the United States can catch up with this lag - although there will be no possibility of maintaining the American superiority in the field of arma- ments as it existed in 1948.
Dulles praised Russian intelligence and skill applied to military and scientific fields, but. added that the American nation does not want a kind of unbalanced economy and so- ciety as exists in the U.S.S.R.
He said that the launciting of the second satellite by the Soviet Union had not alter- ed the United States view its_inlitary signtrance.
