The acute problem with respect to nuclear weapons is not their existence, but their numbers. Six strategic and psychological difficulties inherent in current solutions to this problem are examined, followed by a new and somewhat different proposal. The new proposal consists of a 10-year, bilateral agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union, coupled with a multilateral endorsement of the agreement open to all other countries. In the concluding section, a series of potential objections to the new proposal are raised and briefly discussed
