Telecon Mr. Kissinger The President 9/29/71; 6:45 .m. P: I thought you would be interested to know that Connally was delighted with what I told Paul S (?) He said it was just what he needed to hear -- this fellow was cutting us up all over. Connally said he was surprised because he thought I was going to do just the opposite. He did not think this would do any good. My God, just look at the attitude of Gromyko from a year ago. He went on and on about this personal message from Brezhnev. Brezhnev had talked at great length about me and our meeting. K: This is not how they behave if they want to set somebody up. P: Right. On the other thing with regard to Bill, do you think maybe that Haldeman ought to talk to him first. K: I think he has to have a chance to raise his points. We are having a hell of a time finding time in your schedule. P: I will just do it at Noon. He has to be seen. I wish we could set it up in a way -- I don't want the fact that you are going K: He won't raise that. P: If we announce the Soviet visit now before the China thing K: As a practical matter they will think it is a result of Gromyko. You will remember we were pushing it to have it as early as possible. P: We offered to have it sometime in February. K: He knows about dates and he knows that this was to discuss I tried to make it look like it was done more recently specific. P: With regard to debate in General Assembly, I don't see how this will matter that much. They are just going to announce that you are going. K: You can argue it both ways. P: Speaking of Acheson -- he said he wants me to know he was supporting me all the way. K: I had lunch with Acheson and he said newsmen asked whether the election was going to give him a problem with the Democrats. He said not at all. He said if Jackson runs he may vote for him otherwise he will vote for you.
