Mr. Ehrlichman
6/21/71 2:30 p. m.
K: The British are going to see what they can do about making a
statement tomorroe and checking it with me.
E: Good. The President was just on three times in the last ten
minutes. What he'd like is to describe the declassification process to a
few bipartisan leaders informally next week rather than with a formal
statement.
K: That's excellent.
E: Not Fulbright or Stennis, but Mansfield and few of those. He
says how about mentioning declassification on World War II and Korean
War papers.
K: He can say as part of the declassification procedure this is
one thing we are now looking urgently into. But the reason why we have
been SO sticky is that the NSC papers include all the covert operations.
E: Who gets disillusioned in that? Everybody?
K: World War II doesn't bother me, but we ought to keep in mind
the difference between getting out of trouble this week and
E: Yeah, too many babies getting thrown out of the sleigh.
K: In fact I don't think we are in that much trouble. If you look at
Time and Newsweek we are doing famously.
E: That's what I am trying to tell him.
