...drive for passage of the Panama Canal treaties. He told Carter last week that because of "serious misgivings about this treaty," he now tends to oppose it. Still, he has left himself some room to change his mind. Also uncertain of how he will vote is Georgia Democrat Sam Nunn, who is regarded as one of the Senate's leading authorities on military issues. His voice is sure to sway some of his colleagues...
...Committee on the present Danger and the Coalition for Peace Through Strength have mounted massive propaganda campaigns to persuade the public that will, if adopted, critically undermine national security. These groups and their advocates in the Senate--including, among others, Senators Henry M.

Republican Senator Charles McC. Mathias Jr. sat on one of his Maryland hillsides as long ago as April and heard Pakistan's brilliant ambassador, Sahabzada Yaqub-Khan, prophesy chaos in Iran. The ambassador has gone to Moscow, after telling his friends that his government believes the Soviets to be the dominant world force now because the U.S. cannot be counted...
