S asked K if he had heard from the Secretary on German assurances
in connection with NPT. K said not yet, but he's inclined to go along
with it sight unseen. K asked if S could give him until tomorrow
morning. S said yes, but Germans are pressing pretty hard though.
K said he doesn't know what to tell S about Congressional Consultation.
K said he can't get the P to tell him if he's going to have it tomorrow.
K said it must be tomorrow if S is going to be there. K asked if S
would mind if we did it without him. S said no, he'd prefer it that
way; he would send Worley. K said Helms would do the strategic
part; he [K] would to the verification and Farley would tell how it
all hangs together. S said he thought it would be well if Wheeler
were there. K said yes, he saw what S meant Wheeler would be
there.
S asked if K would tell him more about guidance. K said it takes S's
language. It sticks in a sentence about S's being authorized to talk
about reductions, and a part was put in about area defense--the
minimum area defense they think is necessary. K said otherwise
it doesn't have any lawful aspects.
S said they have two alternative takeoffs Thursday; they're shooting
for a Thursday morning takeoff. K said he is trying to get an ap-
pointment for S with the P tomorrow. S said that was good; he would
like a few minutes with him along and he thinks the other members
of the delegation should have a picture taken with the P. K said he
would set that up. K said he wand would also get a letter for S
signed by the P saying that the P is behind S. S said first rate.
Good.
