West German Chancellor Schmidt warns against troop cuts
West German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt told the National Press Club in Washington that unilateral U.S. troop reductions in West Germany would destabilize world balance. He urged continued U.S. troop presence unless Moscow withdraws from Eastern Europe, calling for a joint international responsibility by Germany and praising U.S.-Germany bonds and peace aims. Meanwhile presidential hopeful Stover received the Iowa Farmers Association backing by Edward Benson, edging Jimmy Carter, who led with 2468.5 votes. Bess Truman remains hospitalized in Kansas City for arthritis.
