- 2 - K: The Arabs have to be patient until after the election which is after December. If we press too hard we will bring the right-wingers into office. [think that's right. . I am going to be hard with them. R: I don't see how they can be anything but grateful. K: Strangely enough, our relations with the Arabs are better than they were before we get daily cables from Sadat. o they are aware that the Russiand give them hardward; we give them political satisfaction. R: Right, possibility of Japan. I really think the same thing applies here. I don't think I ought to. K: I still have the other thing very much in mind, David. R: I just think the other would be a logical first step. I was asked the question at a press conference in Tokyo. It took me aback. K: That did not come from us. R: All I could say was when he asked me had I been asked and if SO what did I say and then what would I do if I were asked. I said I was happy where I am. I think I don't think that would be the right thing. K: If you were to take a position other than the one you might, I really wish you would take the one I discussed with you. R: I hope you're pleased with Donaldson. K: Oh, marvelous. R: I think Bob has made a first rate reputation. K: He couldn't be better. R: He is excellent. You're doing extremely well. I gather from Nelson that you might be leaving soon. Any help I can be just let me know. K: Let me get in touch with you later this week. R: If you think it would be helpful for me to come down and see you before. K: Let me see what I can possibly do. Many thanks, David. I don't know how much Nelson told you, but R: He made clear to me that it was not to go beyond hand
