WASHINGTON (A) - The Unit-
ed States and the Soviet Union 1
yesterday signed an agreement ofI
principles designed to permantlyc
limit nuclear weapons'by the end
of 1974.
President Nixon and Communist I
leader Leonid Brezhnev signed I
for their nations at the White 1
House. The agreement, the out- I
standing accomplishment of their
summit talks, was cemented at
the President's Camp David re-t
treat in the Maryland mountains.-
THE TWO NATIONS agreed as
a matter of principle that ef-
forts by one or the other to ob-
tain a nuclear advantage would
be inconsistent with the goal
of strengthening peaceful rela-
tions.
The agreement is designed to
spur negotiators for both coun-
tries at now-recessed talks in 1
Geneva. Significantly, the armas I
limitation envisioned by the end
of next year would include not
only numbers but the quality
of the missiles themselves.
Nixon and Brezhnev also agreed
that limitation of strategic of-
fensive arms must be subject
to "adequate verification." Both
nations would be permitted to
modernize and replace weapons
only under conditions to be
agreed upon at Geneva.
AT THE SAME TIME, Nixon
and Brezhnev signed a 10-year
pact to expand cooperation be-
tween the two countries on peace-
ful uses of atomic energy. It
succeeds a series of two year
agreements.
The major areas of the joint
arms effort include: (1) control-
ling thermonuclear fusion; (2)
research on "fast breeder" reac-
tors which create more fuel than
they consume; (3) research on
the fundamental properties of
physical matter.
