Soviet nuclear scientist Andrey D. Sakharov had asked Soviet Communist Party Leader Leonid I. Brezhnev and other Soviet leaders to engage in dialogue on program to liberalize "every facet of Soviet life," Christian Science Monitor reported. He had urged that U.S.S.R. announce it would never be first to use weapons of mass destruction and would permit on-site inspection of armament facilities.
