    "ocrText": "Telecon\nSecretary Stans\n7/27/70 5:00 .m.\nS: You're a lucky guy. My file is in the office and I can't remember\nall the things I wanted to talk about.\nK: Do you want me to call you back tomorrow?\nS: No, let's talk right now about the things I have in mind. I am\nworried about the President boxing himself in on the textile thing. He's\ngot to keep his options open. He doesnt know when they '11 dump the bill\non his desk-. it might be just before elections. I hope he can be encour-\naged to keep his options SO he can go where he wants. We've had discus-\nsions in the office about this. He ought to say now that if there are shoes\nin the bill he'll veto it. He's got a lot of options now: exclude exempt\ncountries, exempt products - - the way it is now he can administer it any\nway he wants. I would love to talk to him about it.\nK: I will get it across to him.\nS: I have tal ked to Mitchell about this--has he called you?\nK: Not yet.\nS: Well he will be talking with you.\nK: What do you think of reopening the textile negotiations on less\nthan a comprehensive basis?\nS: I think it would be a bad idea. As the matter stands these people\nhave the votes in the Congress. Anything we do would lose for the\nPresident all the credit he's gained. Peter Flanigan called me and said\nwhat about using the Kendall Plan. At the moment the textile people think\nthe President's a great hero, but that would just iritate them.\nK: What about when he vetoes the bill?\nS: We'll look at that when we get to it.\nK: How can we?\nS: We'll see how it looks then. Two other quick subjects: On the\nBritish aale of arms to South Africa, how much longer do we have to hold\nup on telling Rhodesia?\nK: I thought I approved that.\nS: Yes but we can't get it through State or your staff."
