No details yet
on arms talks
GENEVA, Switzerland (AP)
— The United States and the
Soviet Union began preliminary
nuclear arms talks Monday after
a 13-month lapse in negotia
tions, but no substantive details
were reported from the opening
sessions of the two-day
conference.
One public show of levity bet
ween the two principals, U.S.
Secretary of State George Shultz
and Soviet Foreign Minister An
drei Gromyko, indicated that
the talks might be going well.
But there was no official
confirmation.
The aim of the Shultz
Gromyko talks is to chart new
formal negotiations to trim the
present nuclear arsenals of the
superpowers and avert a space
war. The Soviets had abandon
ed nuclear missile talks in
Geneva in late 1983.
Shultz on Monday morning
sped in a heavily guarded
motorcade to the Soviet mission
where he met with Gromyko for
3Vz hours, an hour beyond
schedule.
Following lunch, the two
foreign ministers resumed
discussions in the American
mission and met for nearly three
hours. Shultz was to give a
reception for the Soviet delega
tion in the evening.
When he arrived at the
American mission for the after
noon session, Gromyko waved
and smiled to newsmen and
then was escorted into the
building by Arthur Hartman,
U.S. ambassador to Moscow,
and Paul Nitze. chief arms con
trol adviser to Shultz.
Then, during a two-minute
photo session, Shultz and the
often stern Gromyko engaged in
highly animated banter on the

subject of conference note
taking.
Reporters did not catch all of
the exchange, but it started
when someone asked the
75-year-old Gromyko, who was
holding a note pad, ‘‘Have you
got that in your notes?”
Gromyko held up his pad and
tore off the top page, saying
“Perfectly right.”
Then Shultz joined in decrib
ing how a labor arbitrator he
once knew would ‘‘write
furiously on the right side of his
note pad and every once in a
while make notes on the left
hand side.”
Shultz said the arbitrator ex
plained that he took down what
people said on the right side
and on the left recorded his
thoughts and impressions.
“When he was finished, he had
a running analysis of the talks,”
Shultz said.
Both Gromyko and Shultz
laughed, and then entered the
negotiating room.
They were joined on the
American side by Hartman,
Nitze, Robert McFarlane, White
House foreign policy adviser
Jack Matlock, a member of the
National Security Council staff
acting as note taker, and
Carolyn Smith, interpreter.
Also on the Soviet side were
Anatoly Dobrynin, ambassador
to Washington; Georgi Kor
nienko, first deputy foreign
minister; Victor Karpov, the
senior arms control negotiator;
Alexander Bratchikov, note
taker, and Victor Sukhadrov,
interpreter.
It’s official —
Reagan elected
WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Ronald Reagan’s re
election became official today at
a sparsely attended joint session
of Congress where the
lawmakers opened the 538 Elec
toral College ballots and con
firmed Reagan’s landslide.
Almost nine weeks after 92.6
million Americans went to the
polls, the lawmakers confirmed
that Reagan won a record 525
electoral votes to Democrat
Walter Mondale’s 13.
Vice President George Bush
achieved the same margin over
Geraldine Ferraro, and it fell to
Bush, as president of the
Senate, to call out the official
results.
At the end of the ceremony,
as vice presidents have done for
two centuries, Bush declared,
“This announcement shall be
deemed a sufficient declaration
of the persons elected president
and vice president of the United
States, each for the term beginn
ing on the 20th day of January.
1985.”
Before the constitutional
ritual. House Majority Leader
Jim Wright, D-Texas. told
reporters the Electoral College
“has been obsolete for some
time. It's a relic of the powdered
wig and snuff box era. It's a
charming exercise... (but) I
think it’s outlived its
usefulness.”
Four “tellers.” two each from
the House and the Senate, open
ed the manila envelopes con
taining each state's official vote
certificate and called out the
results to Bush. Each envelope
was opened with a different
gold-colored letter opener,
creating 51 instant souvenirs.
About two dozen Republican
lawmakers and a dozen
Democrats were on the hand for
the ceremony. Most of the seats
in the House chamber were
empty, and the public galleries
were only half full.
The 538 electors cast their
ballots in their state capitals on
Dec. 17.
