Representatives of major West German political parties met here tonight to discuss a possible law against the participation of West German nationals in both the preparation of aggressive weapons and the production of weapons in other countries.
While no specific reference was made in the report to the West German scientists working on advanced weapons in Egypt, it was assumed that this was the problem for which the law was being considered. The discussion was based on an article of the West German constitution which bans as unconstitutional activities by West Germans in areas of tension, likely to increase those tensions.
