OTHER ADMINISTRATION
RN issued a Christmas season forecast that
events in '72 will be a great step forward toward
world peace. As he received an advance copy of Pope
Paul's New Year's Day peace message, RN said the
fulfillment of the Pope's efforts for peace "would be
the best Christmas present to the world. 11
RN
appointed John Eugene Sheehan to be a member of the
Fed Board of Govs
A spokesman for the Fed said
Burns "is very pleased with the appointment and
believes Mr. Sheehan will make a valuable contribution
to the work of the Board. 11
Today's Health presents a straight view of the respon-
sibilities of Dr. Tkach and his staff. Note that Tkach
is never very far from RN no matter where in the
world he is and that Tkach plans to take his whole
staff to the PRC. RN, it is emphasized, is in
splendid health.
ECONOMY
NBC noted that Secy. Rogers told how much progress
we have made in trade negotiations and Rumsfeld
was on hand to tell how much inflation has been
reduced. Irving R. Levine said Admin officials S seem
to be making a concerted effort to spread Christmas
cheer in the form of good economic news. But there
seems to be more hope than evidence. A clip of
Rogers followed saying we will continue to move
forward in trade negotiations. Levine then said that
despite hope trade isn't going very well; Japan has
interrupted its talks to study its position and the
Canada and EEC negotiations are barely moving.
When the US removed the surcharge, said Levine,
it lost much of its trade negotiation leverage. Admin
officials note there is still a moral obligation for our
allies to break the trade barriers but even they wonder
if the moral pressure is enough.
Dan Schorr provided a straight rundown on CLC rulings
and then noted that Rumsfeld was "unusually cautious
in claiming success. 11 Footage of Rumsfeld stating
it's too early to make a firm prediction on success but
that he personally believes we will meet the 2-3%
inflation rate by the end of '72. Schorr concluded that
the Admin isn't sure how well the controls are working
