Defense Chief Says U.S. Arms to Israel Can Be Expanded
Defense Secretary James Schlesinger told AFL CIO delegates in Miami Beach that U S arms shipments to Israel can be expanded to whatever level is required to preserve the regional military balance. He cited Soviet activity and diplomacy as factors in any future force levels. He avoided committing U S troops but left open the possibility if the Soviets join the conflict. He urged a durable settlement and continued security for Israel with equity for neighbors. He noted U S airlifted some equipment and that peacetime defense spending cuts face staunch opposition from lawmakers. Meany assailed the Nixon era and urged a pro growth anti corruption agenda to regain national standing.
