Omar Bradley said today the United States may have to sacrifice a bit of sovereignty and furnish North Atlantic area defense a navy or air force greater than "we would normally be willing to provide." Thu.?, he said, it may become : noccssry in future years to upset the theory of a balanced army, navy and air force, and to tic the yie of each unit to the joint de fense plana of North Atlantic na tions. The possibility arises from a suggestion by a small nation that a central body within the Atlan tic Treaty framework should de cide how fast and how much each nation's armed forces must be ex panded, he said. "Traditions will have to give way to reality," Bradley declared. "We must accept the more dif ficult alternative" as worth while. Bradley is chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Lie recently talked briefly with U. S. Assistant Secretary 6f State Dean Rusk in Washington. Lie plans to talk in London and Paris with western foreign ministers or their top assistants. And his trip to Moscow if he finally goes will cap the round of the big four capitals. Reports by the Associated Press two days ago that Lie was thinking about going to Moscow were discounted by U. N. spokes men then, although Lie himself said he had not ruled out such a visit on his trip to Europe start ing from New York April 22.
