State has\ntold the Jordanians the territorial changes will be very minor. We will\nhave to reverse this.\nP: Obviously we will have to handle the Jordanians in order to get a\nsettlement.\nK: The four-power process must be slowed down.\nP: How?\nK: I will talk to Sisco.\nP: Good. Where do we stand in Laos?\nK: I have just talked to Moorer who talked to Weyand. We now have\nretaken Hill 31. The airborne linked up with a calvary squadron and\nretook the position. The ARVN have fought very well. Now they are\nconsidering leaving them in. The regiment in the south has linked up\nwith its battalions but that has been a very difficult action. We have\n25 to 30 tanks knocked out in Hill 31 action. More importantly the\nARVN did not break. If the situation xtablix stabilizes we are in good\nshape. In Cambodia they are still doing very well.\nP: Did you tell Joe Alsop I wanted him to go Vietnam to get some honest\nreporting. I told you this last week. I do not want a white wash, just\nhonest stories.\nK: I think he should do SO. Moorer told me he was also uneasy about\nAbrams' failure to enforce but he now feels better. Reinforcements are\ngoing in this week. We will still have a month of heat but if we hadn't\ndone this the enemy would have been in Huay by June. The whole effort has\nblocked their ability to do this.\nP: TOXX Are they moving up that road?\nK: They are moving to do SO and they may be on the road now. The enemy"
