On the eve of the Washington meeting, the Soviets offered to dissolve the Warsaw Pact in return for the disbandment of NATO, on which they heap all the blame for starting and prolonging the cold war. Last month's Warsaw Pact meeting in Budapest renewed the call for a conference of all European countries to settle the problems left over from World...
...turned out to be the shock of failure. Last summer planes were stacked up for hours every day over the "Golden Triangle" airports bounded by New York, Washington and Chicago.
