Richard Lugar, chairman of the Senate For eign Relations Committee, says the Soviet Union’s “unique” proposal to cut nuclear arms 50 percent moves the arms control process “miles clown the trail toward some type of agreement.” “Oiving credit where credit is due, and not (looking at it) as a propa ganda ploy but as an interesting and substantive proposal, the Soviet deep-cut situation is unique,” the In diana Republican said recently. “The Soviets haven’t offered this kind of thing before,” he said. “A year ago they weren’t even at the ta ble at all. The f act that they are there and that they have made a (compre hensive) proposal is significant," said Lugar, a consistent supporter of Reagan administration foreign pol- icv. Lugar’s statements, taken to gether with last week’s comment bv Vice President Bush that the Soviet proposal was a “step in the right di rection,” probably mark most the positive assessment of the Soviet of fer from ranking L'.S. officials to date. But Robert McFarlane, the presi dent’s national security adviser, on Sunday reiterated the administra tion's warning that an arms control agreement hinges on Moscow’s will ingness to settle regional conflicts and alter its human rights policies. “But f or that to endure it has to be sum hi tided by a climate of responsi ble behavior,” he added. W hen Secretarv of State George P. Shultz goes to Moscow at the end of the week for pre-summit plan ning. there could be some progress on such issues as air safety and boundary rights, "if indeed the So viet Union realh wants it," McFar lane said. “President Reagan, probable more than on any other issue, be lieves that his moment and his re- ponsibility is to leave office with a real reduction in nuclear weapons." McFarlane said on CBS’s "Face 1 he Nation." Acknowledging strong L’.S. objec tions to the Soviet proposal as it stands, Lugar said he nevertheless found it a positive base for negotia tion as both nations prepare for the summit meetinu.

He saitl he believed Jor dan and the PLO would patch up their dif ferences. Hussein has said he is unhappy with the alliance and is “reassessing the entire situation" following a se ries of military actions and diplo matic failures that have set back the joint peace drive Hussein and Arafat launched in February. “Monday (today) and Tuesday will be crucial,” said Jerusalem news paper editor Hanna Siniora, refer ring to the scheduled meetings.
