The report discusses issues relating to arms limitation and disarmament. Leaders in U. S. government, professionals from a wide spectrum of disciplines, and other international statesmen participated in the conference in an attempt to define a more enlightened foreign policy. Six major topics were discussed. The first report considered five components of multilateral disarmament mechanisms (information, study, deliberation, negotiation, and follow-up). The second report analyzed present and future capabilities of the International Atomic Energy Agency. The third report considered the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) and suggested ways of making the SALT negotiations more effective. The fourth report examined international nonproliferation and plutonium management. Demilitarization of outer space was discussed in the fifth group report, followed by a consideration of weapons limitation in the Middle East in the final report. The format of each group report includes a brief overview of topics considered by the group, background information on American and foreign government policy regarding the issue, a synthesis of group discussion, and suggestions for solutions to issue-related problems. Speeches by the conference chairman, a U.S. Senator from Iowa, and the Director of the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency are included. (Author/DB)
