Leaders Agree to Nuclear Risk Reduction Pact
U S President Nixon and Soviet Secretary Brezhnev reached a landmark accord to regulate their relations to lower the risk of nuclear war. The bilateral yet multilateral pact will not require Senate ratification and calls for urgent consultations when tensions risk nuclear conflict. The leaders, aiming for a 1974 Moscow summit to limit arsenals, pledged to avoid threats or use of force against each other and their allies. Kissinger suggested the accord does not shield any country but could influence regional conflicts.

Nixon aide testimony urged as truth search faces hurdles
Senator Lowell Weicker said the Nixon administration has stepped on anyone seeking the truth about Watergate and urged listening to John Dean as hearings resume. He defended Dean's credibility and called for full public airing, noting executive branch pressures and recent anti panel remarks by Vice President Agnew. The Watergate panel also weighs ending secret witness talks amid leaks and closed-door sessions.

Nuclear Test Halt Requested by Hague Court
The International Court of Justice urged France to halt nuclear tests in the South Pacific while legality is decided. Australia and New Zealand sought an injunction to prevent further actions that could affect the final ruling. Hearings set for September and December, with France possibly not represented. Officials warned of health and environmental dangers, citing large future test yields. France has yet to release details on device nature or field. Tahitian reports noted six French navy vessels linked to the tests departing for Mururoa Atoll 750 miles southeast of Tahiti. Milwaukee Blue Cross plans a new 2 building project costing 29 to 23 million dollars, with Surgical Care Blue Shield and the Medical Society joining.
