TELCON
Secretary Kissinger - Governor Rockefeller
January 9, 1974
11:25 a.m.
K: Will you stay out of my office from now on? You've upset the
personnel structure of my whole office. I've just hired Gov. Holton.
R: Already? You're kidding.
K: He just accepted.
R: Oh, Henry, he's the most wonderful person. I'm SO pleased it's
happened.
K: So, I've got a governor on the political side.
R: I think that's the most exciting thing. I'm SO delighted. Really.
K: Well, I called to tell you since I told you I wouldn't do it.
R: I don't know how you did it, and so fast.
K: You must have talked to him.
R: Well I did talk to him, but
he was being offered the head of that
railroad, you know
K: AmTrak.
R: Yes, and I told him I thought that was going to be a headache and
couldn't begin to compare
K: I think he's going to be terrific.
R: Oh, yes. He's very bright. He's a brilliant guy.
K: After telling you I want to do it I thought about it and thought.
I would try it. I had SO much opposition by the political people from
the other.
R: I have a feeling you won't regret that.
K. I'm sure I won't. Thank you for coming in, too.
