The response was sent 15 Jan. and said\nhe was busy and finishing his book and opening the library and said he couldn't do\nit. Nothing from the Primrose League. So that's his attitude that he will not\ntake off in the spring. He likes Dean and would have been inclined to do it for\nhim if for anyone.\nK: You are terribly nice.\nR: If you have a notion to do it, I would like to help. I will persue it and talk with\nyou if I get anything.\nK: When are you coming back?\nR: Tomorrow. Giving a speech in a Va. college. Coming back next weekto do\nx a program on educational TV with\non the '61 Presidential decision.\nMax and I think it would be good today and lett/ people face up to what the issues\nwere. Agronsky doing it.\nK: He is intelligent.\nR: Fundamental decision was after Tayler\nand Max and I only people\naround to do it. I am finishing the chapter of the book on Kennedy era and now\ntaking that forward from Sputnik to the present. It's a fascinating exercise\nbecause I am using xxxanalytical terms. Quite explicit and using the same\ncr iteria for eveyone. I am now in the Johnson period. Writing it objectively.\nI am not doing anything funny. I have gone through the Kennedy period.\nK: Why don't you give me a call tomorrow when you get in?\nR: I could see you after if you wanted to or perhaps the next week.\nK:\nHow long are you here Friday?\nR: I don't know. They are bringing me to Dulles for a 5:30 plane.\nK: I was sorry to miss you NEXX last week. It was the first time in 6 weeks that\nthe President wanted to see me at 8:00 a. m.\nthing\nR: No problem with me. Anyxxxx I can do to strengthen your hand.\nK: I could see you Friday afternoon.
