Soviet arms cheating clouds controls, US adviser asserts

Colin Gray, a member of the administration's General Advisory Committee on Arms Control and Disarmament, said in an article in the forthcoming issue of Foreign Policy magazine that classified information provided to the committee provides proof the Soviets are violating arms agreements.

Mr. Gray writes that the administration's policy of saying nothing public about the violations ''suggests that Soviet cheating is condoned.''
