Saturday, October 26, 1974 U.S. explains THE MICHIGAN DAILY Pane Three THE MICHIGAN DAILY Pace Three Thieu regime to dismiss SALTu MOSCOW (Reuter - Secre- tary of State Henry Kissinger yesterday explained American ideas on a new Strategic Arms Limitation (Salt) agreement to Soviet Communist Party Chief Leonid Brezhnev. There were no immediate de- tails of the U. S. suggestions nor of the Soviet reaction, al- though Kremlin officials are understood to have been indi- cating they did not regard the SALT problem with the same urgency as Kissinger.t s The Secretary' of State and Brezhnev met twice during the day to follow up Thursday's seven hours of discussions, which were devoted largely to bilateral relations, the Middle East and the slow-moving Euro- pean statement said the morn- ing talks yesterday between Kis- singer and Brezhnev had taken place in "a very friendly and very cordial atmosphere" and lasted for two-and-a-half hours. U.S. officials said yesterday's talks were largely devoted to SALT - a topic Kissinger is understood to regard as being at the core of the detent pro- cess that both countries have pledged to continue energetical- ly. Although no information wasj released on details of the talks, Kissinger is known to have come to Moscow hoping to work out guidelines for discussion on a new agreement that could be formally approved at a summit between Brezhnev and Presi- dent Ford. THE SUMMIT is believed to be in the forefront of Soviet thinking at the moment, and a time and place for it - prob- ably the last week of Novem- ber in the far east - are ex- pected to be announced before Kissinger leaves for India to- morrow. lans Most signs in Moscow sug- gest that the Soviet leadership will not move on to any sub- stantive consideration of SALT until they have a chance to assess Ford's commitment to detente at first hand. This appeared to be confirm- ed by the composition of the So- viet side at the talks yester- day. ABSENT WAS Defense Minis- ter Marshal Andrei Grechko, who sat in on SALT discussions during Kissinger's visit here in March. Brezhnev was'only ac- companied by Foreign Minister Andrei, Gromyko, Soviet Am- bassador to Washington Anatoly Dobrynin and a senior ForeignI Ministry official. In Kissinger's group was Helmudt Sonnenfeldt, the Sec- retary of State's close adviser on defense matters, and other arms and security experts. When Kissinger came to Mos- cow in March, he had hoped to achieve what he then term- ed "a conceptual breakthrough" on strategic arms - an accord which would set the basis for a new round of discussions to extend the 1972 SALT agree- ment. BUT THIS did not material- ize, apparently because the Rus- sian view on parity in weaponry did not match the AmericanE ideas, and the Secretary of State has been more reluctant to expound his ideas publicly this time. However, it is known he wants an agreement that would cover the period from 1975 through 1985 that would make it possi- ble to at least slow down the spiral in the arms race threatened by the development of new multiple-headed wea- pons. 377 senior officers SAIGON W) - President consider the national interest tinued fighting since the cease Nguyen Van Thieu's government above his egotistical one," he first months ago, unemploy- handed 377 senior officers their said.
