Disarm Zone In Germany Ruled Out By Adenauer
Washington reports that Chancellor Adenauer opposes including German territory in a European disarmament inspection zone. He said a first-step deal between the United States and Russia would not serve a purpose if applied to Germany. Adenauer ends a three day U S visit and plans to return to Germany. The joint communique urged Moscow to back a limited plan to build trust, with German reunification a prerequisite for any wider pact. Adenauer noted Germany should avoid manpower and weapon reductions in Europe in any first step.
