 Vietnam talks 170
    PARIS (AP) - American and North Vietnamese officials met
for 5 1/2 hours in a suburban Paris villa Sunday in the second
round of talks which Washington has said include preparation for a
new meeting of Henry A. Kissinger and Hanoi's Le Duc Tho.
    North Vietnam has not yet officially agreed to such a meeting.
The meetings are supposed to deal with ways of ending violations
of the cease-fire alleged by both sides.
    Hanoi's deputy foreign minister, Nguyen Co Thach, said after
Sunday's meeting that it ''concerned the whole of the Paris
agreements'' establishing a cease-fire in Vietnam, stressing
that ''all the points'' were touched upon. Thach made a similar
statement after Friday's first meeting.
    Kissinger's deputy, William Sullivan, had no statement when he left
the meeting site in a villa occupied by Ambassador David K. E. Bruce
when he was leading the U.S. delegation to the Paris peace talks.
    Another meeting will take place Monday at the Communist villa
in suburban Gif-sur-Yvette.

Brandt-Nixon 240
By ANTHONY COLLINGS
Associated Press Writer
    BONN, Germany (AP) - Chancellor Willy Brandt left by air today for
talks in Washington with President Nixon on the future of
U.S.-European ties and East-West relations.
    Special government minister Egon Bahr accompanied Brandt aboard
the West German Air Force jet that departed at 6:30 a.m. EDT.
    Foreign Minister Walter Scheel is to join Brandt in Washington on
Monday. Brandt is to meet with Nixon and presidential adviser Henry
A. Kissinger Tuesday and Wednesday and return to Bonn on Thursday.
    Scheel is to meet with Secretary of State William P. Rogers.
    Brandt will be the first European statesman to give Nixon a
personal reaction to Kissinger's recent proposals to inject
new life into the Western alliance.
    The chancellor is expected to endorse the proposals, which call for
easing U.S.-European economic friction and keeping U.S. troops in
Europe. Brandt long has proposed a ''constructive dialogue'' to
accomplish this.
    Brandt also is expected to brief Nixon on preparations for the
mid-May visit to Bonn by Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev. Later,
the Kremlin chief is to see Nixon in Washington, possibly in June.
    Before his departure from rainswept Bonn-Cologne airport, Brandt
told newsmen he would speak to Nixon ''not as the spokesman for
Europe, but I will speak as a European.''
    Asked if he intended to ease American anxieties about European
policies, the chancellor replied: ''We will strive for this.''
