grading t)ie “hotline" between
the leaders of the United States
and the Soviet Union and estab
lishing a new direct communica
tions link between their two
military commands to reduce
the risk of nuclear war by acci
dent or miscalculation.

Defense Secretary Caspar Wein

long-awaited measures that
drew heavily from proposals
made by Sen. I lenry Jackson, D-

nuclear weapons.”
“We must also make every
effort to ensure against nuclear
war ever occurring between the
