TELECON Mr. Kissinger Dr. Mayer 7/14/69, 8:10 p.m. M said that he had been told by a Congressman calling for Senator Kennedy that Kennedy was holding hearings tomorrow morning on Biafra and Kennedy was very anxious not to have it cross papers with the Administration if the Administration is planning to do something which could be interfered with by the hearings. K said if Kennedy could delay until next week. He said we are definitely going to do something this week. M said the trouble is that the hearings are scheduled for tomorrow. He said Elliot Richardson was going to start off. K said he didn't want to tell Kennedy what to do. He said we have a policy and we are going to start doing it this week. M said he would suggest that it would be a wise thing to find some reason to delay the meeting. K said if Elliot Richardson leads off and gives our policy it won t t be so bad. M said he would suggest that the hearings be delayed unless Elliot Richardson leads off tomorrow. M and K then discussed having breakfast and K suggested that they try for this Friday, July 18 at 8:00 a. m. Reproduced at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library DECLASSIFIED This document has been reviewed pursuant to Executive Order 13526 and has been determined to be declassified.
