‘Fantastic' Amount Of Money Spent
On Missiles
Washington, July 22,
United States officials find that development of intermediate and intercontinental · missiles is costing what some describe as a "fantastic" amount of money.
The entire United States missile programme has cost the Government alone about $6,000,000,000 so far, which is three times the cost of the original Manhattan district project during World War II for development of the atomic bomb.
