House may delay MX showdown after arms talk success
Washington AP report says the Reagan administration’s success in reviving arms talks with the Soviet Union could push back April votes on MX missile funding. Rep. Dante Fascell says Secretary Shultz made persuasive points urging Congress not to kill MX or cut military spending, while House leaders have not decided yet. Shultz warned that killing MX could hurt U.S. negotiating leverage, and Speaker O’Neill noted the compromise means MX may not be deployed.
