Solons hit Nixon SALT curbs
Senators charged the Nixon administration with a bombshell move to curb SALT with a bipartisan amendment by Henry M. Jackson and Hugh Scott. The action challenges antiballistic missile limits and argues for a future treaty not worsening the U.S. strategic position while urging continued R and D and modernization. The proposal passed amid questions of sanctions and party support as the Senate eyed an eventual approval of the SALT pact restricting US and Soviet forces to two ABM sites and 200 interceptors.
