Cyrus Vance heads home without agreement By KENNETH J. FREED Associated Press Writer BONN, West Germany (AP) * - Secretary of State Cyrus R. Vance started home from Mos cow today expressing hope for , an agreement eventually to re duce the Soviet and American nuclear arsenals despite his failure to get negotiations start- * ed during his visit to the Soviet capital. Vance flew to Bonn to confer * with Chancellor Helmut Schmidt and brief him on his fruitless five-day attempt to break the deadlock over a new * Strategic Arms Limitations Treaty (SALT). He was spend ing the night in London and vis- * iting Paris Friday for similar talks with British and French officials. * Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezh nev on Wednesday rejected two alternative American propos als, but Vance and Soviet For- * eign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko agreed to meet again in May. * “In my judgment this has been a useful visit,’’ Vance told reporters at the Moscow air port. “Our objective was not a * simple one. Reaching agree ment on arms control measures can’t be accomplished over- , night. “In the meantime, I’m sure that both sides will study the t matter which we discussed and will find that their objectives are similar.” t More failure awaited Vance in Bonn, where West German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt on Wednesday night rejected the * Carter administration’s urging that it modify its nuclear deal with Brazil and do more to stimulate the West German * economy as an aid to inter national economic recovery. Schmidt told a news confer , ence West Germany’s sale of a $4.8-billion nuclear installation to Brazil would be “one of the most important topics” in his * talks with Vance. He reaffirmed his determination not to bow to the U.S. demand that the sale of a reprocessing plant that could * make fuel for nuclear weapons be excluded from the deal. “The American government x—A | I .

Vance said Brenzhev “examined our two proposals and did not find either acceptable.” (AP) has known since last year ... that we are determined to abide by contractual agreements,” Schmidt said. Schmidt also reiterated that West Germany has done its share to spur international eco nomic recovery, despite insist ence by President Carter’s ad visers that it and Japan can do more. President Carter told report ers in Washington he would consider a step-up in U.S. weapons development if the So viets do not negotiate “in good faith” when Vance and Gromyko meet in May. Vance proposed negotiations on one of two treaties: —An interim pact putting into effect the numerical limit of 2,- 400 long-range missiles and bombers for each country agreed to by President Ford and Brezhnev at Vladivostok in 1974 but deferring negotiations for controls on the American cruise missile and the Soviet Backfire bomber. —A comprehensive treaty to reduce the number of missiles and bombers substantially be low Vladivostok levels, cut the total of multiple warheads, ban the development and deploy ment of new strategic weapons and the means of delivering them and restrict the use of the cruise missile and the Backfire bomber. ■■■ u ov"' . /T’-x t | Join the nationally famous Ban Club... and save money on many things you need.

FIRST NATIONAL BANkW OF GRIFFIN, GEORGIA MEMBER FDIC Page 3 Human rights issue ‘Balance morality with reality’ ATLANTA (AP) - The Brit ish ambassador to the United States cautioned western na tions Wednesday to “balance morality with reality” as they promote human rights in the Soviet Union and South Africa. Speaking to an Atlanta civic group, Sir Peter Ramsbotham, said, “We must fight racialism wherever it exists so that men are recognized not by the color of their skin, but by their in trinsic human value.” But, he said, “We have to balance morality with reality, and I think this is your Presi dent’s policy, too.” President Carter, Ramsbo tham said, “has been bold in stating his wide objectives — rightly. And he will be cautious but firm in his pursuit of them — rightly.” However, he said, “We must not be so aroused by the bold ness that we misunderstand the need for caution.. .We be lieve that, with time and pa tience, peaceful change is pos sible.” Ramsbotham, who has served as Britain’s chief diplomat in Washington since 1974, said ma jority rule in Rhodesia and South Africa should be imple mented through policies that will avoid bloodshed and eco nomic problems, even if such policies take longer. “The instability caused by too rough a shaking of the status quo may be more harmful for those we are trying to help than the status quo itself.” In a speech to newspaper edi- — Griffin Daily News Thursday, March 31,1977 tors earlier Wednesday, Ram sbotham said he is optimistic about Great Britain’s economic recovery.
