...very close to parity with the 1,710-missile U.S. arsenal; American multiple-warhead missiles would again put parity well beyond their immediate reach, and undoubtedly prompt them to embark on a new race to catch up. Finally, a disarmament-minded faction within the Kremlin, led by Kosygin and other economic planners, is believed to have won out for the moment over the generals and the "metal eaters" by arguing that the arms race could lead not only to further economic strain but even to war. Johnson's spadework for the forthcoming talks began less than two months after...
...Illusions. The break in the ice left some U.S. officials notably cool. After Kosygin announced a nine-point program to halt the nuclear-arms race, one Washington official declared: "Most of that stuff is old garbage. It's a propaganda cover for the fact that their position is not formulated." Indeed, Kosygin's prospectus did have a ring of familiarity. Its major proposals -for limitations on the production of nuclear weapons and delivery systems, and restrictions on the movement of nuclear-armed bombers and missile-launching submarines-have been made before, but never came close to being implemented...
NUCLEAR NON-PROLIFERATION TREATY, 1968. After being kicked around for ten years, the idea was finally approved at the Johnson-Kosygin summit in Glassboro, N.J., a year ago. The resulting treaty, worked out in Geneva, commits the signing nations (60-odd, so far) to the historic agreement.

Plainly, the President will need a brand-new scenario, and some of the ideas tossed around would do credit to DeMille. Why not fly off, after the November election, to Africa? Then to Moscow to sign the nuclear nonproliferation treaty and coo with Kosygin in the Kremlin. Next, Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and tea with Harold Wilson for old time's sake. A final fling in Asia, L.BJ.'s personal preserve, and then a philosophic valedictory designed to galvanize the nation into thinking about its duties at home and abroad...
