II --- - - -- ---- WASHINGTON (P)-Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird said yesterday that the Pentagon bud- get will be increased to more than $80 billion next fiscal year. The current spending figure is about $76 billion. Laird's forecast was a change from predictions made two weeks ago. by a high-ranking Pentagon official who said he anticipated a cut in spending for the com- ing year. Although Laird said details were lacking because planning had not been completed, he told newsmen that manpower cost increases for the fiscal year starting July 1 will eat up $3.9 billion alone. Pentagon sources said other inflationary costs and increased spending for research and de- velopment would account for the rest of the 1974 jump. Laird discussed the budget situation just before he left for Brussels and the upcoming round of ministerial talks in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The secretary said he would stress to the other NATO minis- ters "that this is not the time to make unilateral cuts in defense budgets." This is particularly import- ant now, he said, because of the mutual balanced force reduc- tion talks starting Jan. 31 with the Soviet Union and its allies. Such negotiations, which are aimed at slicing troop levels by both East and West, "depend to a large extent on NATO's spirit and the maintenance of a strong NATO alliance," Laird stated. It is "essential to go forward" with increases in U. S. defense spending for those same reasons, he added.
