military to shape up and get it done. I want the Indonesians to send some stuff.
We will x their stuff. Of course we will get a military request from
Indonesia anyway. So let's see what we can accomplish.
HAK: I will have it done by tomorrow evening.
Pres: What about ;your message?
HAK: They asked him to come at 11:30. When he got there they
said'I called to tell you I will be leaving for Hanoi for about two weeks, I want
you to know you should deliver it through these men."
Pres: Didn't he deliver message already to the fact that we were prepared
to meet on May 23?
HAK: If they wanted to indicate an interest in keeping the channel open this
was the subtlest way of doing it. I think this is really a signal that they
are trying to keep the hhannel open. It is a very subtle way of conveying the
idea that the channel is open. Why else would they say if you have a message
here is the man to give it to. They could have just left. In 1967 when I dealt
with them they wouldn't even speak directly -- it all had to be done on the
telephone. I think this is a rather interesting phenomenan.
Pres: Fine.
