7:30 PM
S: Hello.
K: Joe, you know, there has to be somebody in NEA when I'm in the building,
it just can't be that I've got to run all over the place looking for people.
S: Yes.
K: And it really happens too often since you're not there any more. Now we've
got a cable from Fahmy which we've got to answer tonight in which he asks what
he should say to - first of all he wants to know what reactions we've had from
Algeria and I think we should send Eilts some of these cables from Algiers.
S: Yes. You mean on the embargo?
K: Yes.
S: Yes.
K: And secondly, on the two months thing we ought to say that's a very difficult
thing for us partly it's a qquestion of dignity and secondly as a question of the
end of those two months coinciding with the President's trip into the Middle East
and we can hardly have the President go their looking as if he's opportuning
for getting the thing extended.
S: Alright, why don't I - I'm getting into a clean tie - why don't I just come on
back.
K: It's got to go tonight.
S: Yes. I'm just trying to figure out here - I can be a little late for this dinner.
I'm just getting into a clean tie and I'll just go into the Department.
K: Well, wear a clean shirt while you're at it.
S: I think I ought to, don't you. May as well do both. Alright, I'll take care
of it.
K: We'll get it out tonight?
S: What I'll do, I'll
K: Isn't there a country director, these heros you talk about SO much who can
do it.
