K said we can go back to Paris any time we want without loss of face. K said we can use Janu- ary or February to get something else started. K said of course we will have a set-back, they will probably launch an offensive in February or March, the rate of infiltration indicates that. P said it will take 30 days to know that; the rate of infiltration may be to replace tosses. P said I just wonder what the hell they're up to. P said the of the Joint Chiefs-- don't like that. K said that's partly Laird's fault-- they sent the memo to him over two weeks ago; Laird just got it over here yesterday. K said the normal thing is for the P to call them and to talk to them. K said he would have a word with Wheeler. P said say we are keenly aware, but are boxed in. Also way we are going to give until April 15, and then give a hard look. K said we can tell them that; we can tell them to stay at top ceilings (that will ease their minds); K said he would like to work out through Haig that Wheeler will give us cop- ies of memos addressed to P. P said we should bring him in on these discussions. K said I wouldn't do it now; you get Vietnam under control first.
