Pentagon spending slashed by critics
Critics win first battles against defense outlays in Congress. A $300 million cut to Vietnam aid and a halt to unrelated nerve gas funding pass amid party splits. Yet supporters save Safeguard ABM, and a broader $2.5 billion reduction effort fails.

Debate centers on peace prospects versus leverage with North Vietnam.
