K: You got away before I could see you yesterday.
B: I am sorry; I asked David Halperin whether you wanted me to come
back and he thought not.
K: He thought wrong. It doesn't make any difference. In the meantime I
have read your article. Where did you get the impression that this was worked
out by Smith on the boat?
B: I thought that was part of it.
K: Whoever your source was he should never be believed again.
B: That is good to know. I am sorry.
K: Doesn't make any difference. As far as public record is concerned I
don't mind that appearing. But I wouldn't write it in my book because you wouldn't
want to part of X the permanent record when it is SO totally wrong.
B: It had a certain color to it. What do you think of the rest of it?
K: I thought it was good, and this is so unimportant it doesn't make any differenc
Who XXXX or where it was worked out.
B: I tried to play it down
K: I read it more with amusement. When Haig and I read it we said 'they'd
anything. I But really it is unimportant and affects your story not
at all. If I go to England on that little exercise I WO uld appreciate your suggestions
on how to use my time. Seeing bureaucrats is part of my trip, but I'd like to
see people one doesn't usually see outside of it.
B: Any dix idea when you are going?
K: Probably the 17th or 18th, not certain.
B: Let me think about it. You interested in having Thompson have a lunch
for you?
K: Yes, but only London Sunday Times people? It might be fun to have some
of the other better journalists there. I have just got to get that egregious
ambassador off my back. I would like to see some of the more interesting people.
Actresses I take care of myself.
