Critics clash over Reagan defense plans and Soviet threat
Washington liberals led by Edward Kennedy and conservatives such as William Dickinson critique Reagan's push for a record 238.6 billion defense budget for 1984 amid fears of a Soviet buildup. The Pentagon report "Soviet Military Power" is used to justify spending as lawmakers weigh a smaller increase while defense leaders warn of growing Soviet strength and world dominance. Weinberger calls the Soviet military buildup offensive and expansive across the globe.
