WASHINGTON (AP) — The
United States and the Soviet
Union Thursday signed an
agreement of principles de-
signed to permanently limit
nuclear weapons by the end of
1974.

President Nixon and
Communist leader Leonid I.
Brezhnev signed for their
nations at the White House.
The agreement, the
outstanding accomplishment
of their summit talks, was
cemented at the President's
Camp David retreat in the
Maryland mountains.

The two nations agreed as a
matter of principle that efforts
by one or the other to obtain a
nuclear advantage would be
inconsislent with the goal of
strengthening peaceful rela-
tions.

The agreement is designed
to spur negotiators for both
countries at now-recessed
talks in Geneva. Significantly,
the arms limitation envisioned
by the end of next year would
include not only numbers but
the quality of the missiles
themselves.

Nixon and Brezhnev also
agreed that limitation on
strategic offensive arms must
be subject to “adequate veri-
fication.” Both nations would
be permitted to modernize and
replace weapons only under
conditions to be agreed upon
at Geneva.

Al the same time, Nixon and
Brezhnev signed a 10-year
pact to expand cooperation
belween lhe two countries on
peaceful uses of atomic
energy. It succeeds a series of
two-year agreements.

The major points of the
compact include: (1) con-
trolling thermonuclear fusion;
(2) research on ‘‘fast
breeder’? reactors which
create more fuel than they
consume; (3) research on the
fundamental properties of
physical matter.

A similar arms under-
standing between Nixon and
Brezhney in 197] produced,
when Nixon went to Moscow to
see Brezhnev last spring, an
initial but limited nuclear
weapons agreement.

Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, the
President's national security
adviser, told newsmen that
 Nixon and Brezhnev are
convinced an expanded
agreement by the end of 1974
would be ‘‘a major con-
tribution in reducing the
danger of an outbreak of
nuclear war.”

He said they were agreeing
now to seven basic principles
out of “sense of urgency.”

.. The current SALT talks in
Geneva have kecome static
and are recessed. The new
understanding is designed to
provide ari impetits fot
positive negotiations.
Knowledgeable observers
estimate the second pact
would be ready by the end of
1974. :
