Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), conferred with Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev yesterday and said later that Soviet- U.S. relations are "difficult now, perhaps there can be steps on both sides to bring better understandings of respective decisions." Kennedy made the remark in a Moscow television interview after a two-hour meeting with Brezhnev in the Kremlin. He is here for an international World Health Organization conference. KENNEDY SAID Brezhnev spoke "very frankly . . . about problems which exist between the Soviet Union and the United States." A Kennedy aide said the senator would not elaborate until after his return to America, scheduled for today. Before the meeting, Kennedy told reporters he would urge Brezhnev to patch up strained relations with America. He said that unless there are improvements, there is little chance the Senate will ratify a new U.S.-Soviet Strategic Arms Limitation pact, now being negotiated. TASS, THE official Soviet news agency, quoted Brezhnev as saying relations between the two countries "should be built on the basis of strict observance of the principles of equality, mutual benefit and non- interference in each other's internal affairs." Brezhnev apparently was referring to Washington's objections to a recent. Kremlin crackdown .on Soviet dissidents, which has led to a major chill between the superpowers. The Soviet media gave major coverage to the Kennedy-Brezhnev meeting, the first between the two men since April 1974.

There have been reports here recently that his health was failing. Meanwhile yesterday, the Soviet Union proposed an international agreement among nuclear nations not1 to use atomic weapons againstI countries that do not possess them.

THE LETTER called the proposed I "international convention on strengthening security guarantees of study N.Y. combat the outbreak.i CALIFANO, reading a statement toi newsmen at HEW headquarters, concentrated his remarks on the c situation in New York City.t He said HEW medical experts feel 1 while the New York situation needsc further study, "the isolated cases reported outside New York City merely t reflect the seasonal pattern of Legionnaires disease which peaks ina late summer and fall, and our X a gRon Brooks r ( i to r rsity 995.5955 i rezhne non-nuclear states" an important a urgent measure. Contents of the lett were published by Tass, the offici Soviet news agency. Gromyko wrote that the treaty shoul be signed by nations possessing nuclea weapons and include "appropriat guarantees" that atomic weapons no be used against non-nuclear countries. It also would be signed by no nuclear countries that "renounce th production and acquisition of nuclea weapons and do not have them in thei possession," the letter stated. Gromyko repeated a Sovie declaration that it will not use nuclea weapons against non-nuclear countries ,disease increased ability to diagnose thi illness." Califano said experts know a grea deal more about the disease and its treatment than in 1976 when it struck persons attending an American Legion convention in Philadelphia. "LEGIONNAIRES dihase can b treated with a commonly availabl antibiotic - erythromycin - whic assures recovery in the vast majority o patients," Califano said. The secretary said that HEW wil assist any state in establishing surveillance system and I nvestigating cases of the disease. Califano said there have been five reported cases of Legionnaires disease n New York City, with four others "presumptively identified." This means blood tests showed a high level of Legionnaire's disease antibodies, but' inal confirmation requires further ests. ANOTHER 69 cases of pneumonia or espiratory disease are being nvestigated. "SPECTACULAR...A MAJOR FILM." -Pauline Kael, THE NEW YORKER
