INFORMATION
MEMORANDUM FOR SECRETARY KISSINGER
FROM: W. R. Smyser
SUBJECT: Current Hanoi Intentions
In response to your request, this is my analysis of North
Vietnamese intentions over the next six months:
I believe the North Vietnamese will intensify their military
and political pressures against the South Vietnamese government
over the next six months.
These tactics would be designed to take advantage of the
up-coming dry season and also to profit from polítical
uncertainties in Saigon and the United States.
I do not believe the North Vietnamese will denounce the
Paris Agreement. By the same token, I believe they will
be restrained at least a little by their desire not to
destroy the structure established by the Agreements.
Instead what they want is to compel us to accept the North
Vietnamese interpretation of the Agreements.
I would expect heavy military action, greater than during the
last dry season. but short of the 1968/1972 all-out offensives.
I would also expect that they will continue to refuse to
deal with Thieu or the resume the two-party or four-party
meetings.
They want to sustain the pressure against Thieu to take
maximum advantage of South Vietnamese uncertainties regarding
American Congressional intent and of the political ferment in
Saigon. They recognize that this uncertainty and this ferment
reinforce each other.

I cannot judge whether part of their strategy would be to
test the new President. I think they would have increased
their military and political pressures even if we had not
had a change in the administration, but they may be tempted
to be slightly bolder just to see how he will react.
They are clearly not free of constraint. We hear reports
that Moscow and Peking are holding back on support. These
reports are reinforced by chiding editorials in Hanoi
publications. They are also constrained by internal economic
deficiencies. Most of all, I think they are reluctant to
tear the fabric of the Paris Agreement completely. But even
within those constraints there is room for considerable
activity. This is what I think we must expect.

MEMORANDUM FOR MAJOR GENERAL JOHN A. WICKHAM
THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Subject: PRC Special Flights to the U.S.
In late March 1974, the People's Republic of
China's Liaison Office and United Nations Mission
(PRCMUN) requested USG assistance for two special
flights to New York's JFK Airport, one (on March 30)
from Tokyo via Anchorage and the other (on April 2)
from Paris. These trial flights were in preparation
for a third flight which was to bring the PRC's dele-
gation to a Special Session of the United Nations
General Assembly. The third flight was subsequently
cancelled and the PRC delegation, which was headed
by Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-p'ing, arrived on a com-
mercial carrier.
Arising from these two trial flights was the
question of who should pay for the ground-handling
and other services rendered by Northwest and Trans
World Airlines. The National Security Council, at
the recommendation of the Department of State, decided
that the United States Government should pay the costs
of ground security for the aircraft and U.S. Customs
overtime charges.
In its September 23 directive, the NSC indicated
that these costs should be forwarded to the Depart-
ment of Defense for payment. (A memorandum of March 9,
1972 from William Gulley, Executive Assistant to the
Military Assistant to the President, to Carl Wallace,
Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense, re-
quested Defense to appropriate the necessary funds.
A copy of this memo is attached.) The NSC directed

that the question of payment of the other ground
service charges (the bulk of the expenses) should
first be discussed with the Chinese, since the PRC
has in the past provided such services for certain
USG flights and the charges have been credited to a
special account. The State Department did discuss
this with the Chinese, and on October 6 the PRC
Liaison Office informed the Department that the PRC
would prefer to pay the airlines directly for the
costs of the special flights.
The airline invoices for the ground security and
overtime costs are attached. It would be appreciated
if the Department of Defense would reimburse the air-
lines directly for these expenses.

Your memorandum of July 3 concerning the costs associated with
IO
two special diplomatic flights from the People's Republic of China
S/CCT
to New York on United Nations business has been reviewed.
RF
On March 2, 1972 an agreement was signed between then Deputy
Assistant Secretary of State for Operations John M. Thomas and
his Chinese counterpart which provided that the costs of various
special USG flights to the PRC be "reimbursed later either by
providing refueling and services on a reciprocal basis or by re-
payment." (See full text in the attachment.) The agreement is
ambiguous as to whether PRC special flights to this country
associated with United Nations business should be covered by the
note of understanding.
In this circumstance, the Department should approach the Liaison
Office of the PRC and indicate that on the basis of the March 2,
1972 agreement the USG is willing to pay for the relevant costs of
their March 1974 special flights to the United Nations in New York.
If, however, the PRC would prefer to cover these costs directly
inasmuch as they are associated with flights on United Nations
rather than U. S.- PRC business, we will direct the airlines to sub-
mit bills directly to the PRC Liaison Office. In either case, the
USG should cover the security and customs charges associated with
the PRC special flights.

Once a reply is received from the PRC, the Department should, as
appropriate, either inform the airlines that they should bill the
PRC Liaison Office directly, or send the bills to the Department of
Defense for payment. (A memorandum of March 9, 1972 from
William Gulley, Executive Assistant to the Military Assistant to the
President, to Carl Wallace, Special Assistant to the Secretary of
Defense, requested Defense to appropriate the necessary funds. A
copy of this memo is also attached. ) In either case, the security
and customs charges should be directed to DOD for payment.

MEMORANDUM TO
CARL WALLACE
In reference to my memorandum of 25 February 1972, on fuel
payment and landing fees at the People's Republic of China in
connection with the President's visit, in view of the attached
from John Thomas of State Department who did the negotiating
with the Chinese, you can see that a considerable change has
occurred since that date.
It would appear that there may be some lapses of time before
the Chinese actually make a claim for reimbursement. Since
DOD will be required to fund this, it is suggested that an appro-
priate amount of money be allocated for ready availability when
needed.

Dick Solomon called and asked me
to pass the following information to you
with the thought that you might wish to
make HAK aware of it:
--The PRC representstatives have
asked that the governmental press represen-
tatives from Israel, South Korea, South
Vietnam and South Africa not attend the
press preview of the exhibit at the National
Gallery.
--The PRC cultural affairs man has
told the cultural affairs officer at State that
it was a matter of "political principle" that
these four groups not attend the preview; that
their admission would be "highly unpleasant¹
and could lead to "grave consequences for the
exhibition. 11; and the Counselor of the PRCLO
is seeking to clarify the matter through the
Gallery press officer.
--Dick Solomon sees three options
for handling the matter; 1) have the National
Gallery tell the Chinese that they are sticking

by their policy that these press previews are
open to all; meanwhile, we would quietly extelkx
ask the representatives of the four countries to
stay away; (in this connection, we have quietly
assured the PRC that the Taiwan representatives
will not attend. ); 2) that we tell the PRC that
we are very sorry, but our policy is to keep
the press previews open to all; if this is too
embarrassing to the PRC, we will cancel the
press preview; but, if asked the reason for
the cancellation, we would say it was because
of PRC objections concerning attendance by the
representatives of certain countries. Dick Solomon
prefers this option; 3) that we cancel the press
preview on our own initiativw.
Dick is available at home, or his home
can reach him by phone, if you wish to speak

BACKGROUND
The Exhibition of selected archeological objects
excavated in the People's Republic of China from 1949
to 1972 started its current tour in Paris in May 1973.
Since that time, it has been on view to large and en-
thusiastic audiences in England, Austria, Sweden and
most recently in Toronto, at the Royal Ontario Museum.
Preliminary agreement for the show to visit the
United States was worked out by Secretary Kissinger,
during his November 1973 visit to Peking. The final
agreement between the Chinese and ourselves was signed
on October 28, 1974 in Peking.
The Exhibition is one of the largest art loans to
come to the United States. It opens to the public at
the National Gallery of Art on December 13 and will
run through March 30, 1975. It will then move on to
the Nelson Gallery-Atkins Museum in Kansas City,
Missouri and be on view there from April 20 through
June 8. The objects will then be returned to Peking.
The most celebrated pieces in the Exhibition
include a jade funeral suit designed to preserve the
body of Princess Tou Wan, Western Han Dynasty, last
2nd Century B.C., and a bronze figure of a flying
horse, Eastern Han Dynasty 2nd Century A.D. The horse,
standing by one leg on the back of a swallow, is a
remarkably realistic interpretation of Chinese
"celestial horses" which were representations of the
tall western breed of animal. The remaining 380 ancient
treasures include bronzes, pottery, porcelains and
textiles ranging from prehistory to the Yuan Dynasty
ending in the late fourteenth century A.D.

Suggested Remarks for Use by the First Lady at the Dinner at the
National Gallery of Art on December 10, 1974, in Honor of the Opening
of the Archeological Exhibition from the Peoples Republic of China
The President has asked me to express, on his behalf, a warm
welcome to all of you here tonight, and particularly to the official
delegation from the Peoples Republic of China led by Mr. Liu Yang-chiao
that has come for the opening. We view this exhibition as an important
symbol of the growing ties of friendship between our two peoples.
As you may know, my husband and I had the pleasure of visiting
China together in 1972. During that trip we had the opportunity of
touring the former palace museum and seeing some of the objects
that are a part of this exhibition. I particularly remember the wonderous
jade suit and the flying horse which we will see later this evening.
Incidentally, while in China I also had the rare opportunity of visiting
the Ching Tombs south of Shenyang. I came away from China with
a deep appreciation for the skill and creative talent of its people.
The President feels strongly that the development of Sino-American
friendship and the promotion of normalized relations between our two
countries are cardinal elements of America's foreign policy. I
R.
know that it is in this spirit that he is looking forward to his visit
GERALD
FORD
to China next year.
The fact that this outstanding exhibition of archeological finds
from the Peoples Republic of China will be seen by thousands of
Americans in the coming three months is a reflection of the deepening
contact between our two peoples. Thus, in international affairs
2
as in domestic development, as Chairman Mao has said, the past
can serve the present.
Thank you.

MEMORANDUM FOR:

FROM:
RICHARD H. SOLOMON ruts
SUBJECT:
Toast for Use by the First Lady at
December 10, 1974 Dinner
Attached are two versions of suggested informal remarks which the
First Lady might use at the dinner on December 10 marking the opening
of the archaeological exhibition from the PRC. The draft remarks
came over from State and I have worked them over a bit.
Depending on HAK's guidance on the issue of whether Mrs. Ford should
indicate an interest in accompanying the President to Peking next
year, use either the version of the remarks at Tab A (which does not
include a reference to her going) or at Tab B (in which she expresses
the hope of going).
State tells me that on Saturday they will be sending over some additional
material for Mrs. Ford on the archaeological exhibition and the special
delegation coming from Peking to attend the opening. This will come
via a Springsteen to Scowcroft memorandum. You may wish to include
this material along with the toast in a package for Mrs. Ford by the
end of the day Monday, partly because the special delegation from the
PRC will be touring the White House Tuesday morning and the First
Lady may bump into them.
Pat Malone has my telephone number where I can be reached on Monday
if anything complicated arises. Otherwise, I will be back in the office
Tuesday morning.

Suggested Remarks for Use by the First Lady at the Dinner at the
National Gallery of Art on December 10, 1974, in Honor of the Opening
of the Archeological Exhibition from the Peoples Republic of China
The President has asked me to express, on his behalf, a warm
welcome to all of you here tonight, and particularly to the official
delegation from the Peoples Republic of China led by Mr. Liu Yang-chiao
that has come for the opening. We view this exhibition as an important
symbol of the growing ties of friendship between our two peoples.
As you may know, my husband and I had the pleasure of visiting
China together in 1972. During that trip we had the opportunity of
touring the former palace museum and seeing some of the objects
that are a part of this exhibition. I particularly remember the wonderous
jade suit and the flying horse which we will see later this evening.
Incidentally, while in China Nalso had the rare opportunity of visiting
the Ching Tombs south of Shenyang. I came away from China with
a deep appreciation for the skill and creative talent of its people.
The President feels strongly that the development of Sino-American
friendship and the promotion of normalized relations between our two
countries are cardinal elements of America's foreign policy. I
know that it is in this spirit that he is looking forward to his visit
to China next year. -- and I must admit I am looking forward to the trip myself.
The fact that this outständing exhibition of archeological finds

from the Peoples Republic of China will be seen by thousands of

Americans in the coming three months is a reflection of the deepening
contact between our two peoples. Thus, in international affairs

as in domestic development, as Chairman Mao has said, the past
can serve the present.
Thank you.
