BRANDT END SUMMIT; PLEDGEJNITY (Continued from I'age One) lion lo reaching understanding i IJust Germany, Rogers, In meeting i Foreign Minister Walter Schcel, and Nixon, In his session with Brandt, stressed that the United Slates will In no way negotiate any agreement with the Soviet Union on troop cuts or other European mailers out side the framework of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

"In other words," Rogers lold reporters, "we are not go ng to make any. agreement about reducing our forces in Europe unless we do It in consultation and in full cooperation with our allies. Rogers said lie and Nixon lold their German counterparts same holds true concerning the Soviet proposed European security conference. ''Obviously we will discuss the 'European security conference when we are in Moscow," Rogers said, "just as our allies discussed European sccur- ty conference with the- Soviet Union, but it would riot be done except in a way that is fully consonant with the position that we all take." Some doubt was expressed by both delegations that the recently negotiated treaty between Moscow and Bonn can be ratified before Nixon goes to Russia in May. Rogers, who led the major briefing on Tuesday's talks, also made these points: --No progress has.

been made with the Soviets on joint -East- West'troop cuts in Central Eur a Nixon and Brandt "did not discuss the question of a symbolic reduction of forces." The German leader in (he past has suggested a 5 or 10 per cent cut by the West might be in order. --There was hardly any dis cussion of the'ongoing' U.S.-Soviet strategic arms limitation talks because "we have been in such'close consultation with our allies on SALT talks that I do not think there is any apprehension at all on that subject." --Summing up the talks, Rogers said: "I think the most important general conclusion that I would make is that the relations between our two governments are excellent, and we are on parallel courses." From the a side, sources said Brandt was very pleased with Nixon's position on''a strong western alliance arid continued U.S. military presence on the continent. The Germans also were said lo'have told Nixon and Rogers they won't proceed with the question of U.N. membership for both German slates unlil the two governments reach a more formal relationship.
