C. 38 1 June 24, 1966 ND1900312 FG170 CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM TO THE HONORABLE ROBERT C. WEAVER SUBJECT: Information Kit on Vietnam As part of our joint effort to increase the flow of Department-to- Department information, and expand the scope of individual Cabinet Member speeches, I plan to circulate background kits on key issues from time to time. The enclosed information package treats several basic aspects of the Vietnam issue. It is being circulated to each of your Cabinet colleagues. Some of this data may be familiar to you, but I believe it will be generally helpful to have on hand, and particularly useful to your staff as reference material for specific speech situations. As new and more current material on Vietnam develops, it will be furnished to you for inclusion in this kit. Robert E. Kintner Secretary to the Cabinet REK:rba DETERMINED TO BE AN MEN NOT PLEASURY SE 1.1(a) BY TH ON 3-2587
