    "ocrText": "Telecon\nGovernor Reagan\n12:10 p. m.\n11/3/69\nK was calling about the President's speech tonight which he thought would\nplease Reagan. It donsn't doo the things they were talking about in that\nsence but it sets them up by xxxxxxxx tying the other side\nto\nlower\ncasualties and clearly indicates what we are going to do. It is very strong.\nSince they were speaking on an open line, K couldn't go into too much detail.\nIt indicates why we will not announce a timetable, we will not have unilateral\nwithdrawal, indicates the obstacles in Hanoi. It will not please our liberal\nfriends. Reagan asked if Hanoi had made any overtures. K sa id they have\nnot except for lowering activity.\nK said anything Reagan could do to get public expression of support would be\nappreciated and clearly in the national interest. Also, if Reagen could get\npeople in California to follow through with support after speech it would help\ntremendously. They have been chopping away at us and now after the\nmoratorium the President is even stronger. K said he can assure Reagan\nthat in the spirit of what they have been talking about, the speech is very\nclose to that conversation. K warn't sure what Reagan could organize\nfrom London. Reagann indicated that there would be support in London. The\npress has already approached him. K said what he has told Reagan now is\nstrictly off the record. Reagan agreed. They asked Reagan what he thought\nand Reagan expressed what was his personal view and that be had no advance\nnotice or inside information. K said that line was safe. K said the second\npoint of Reagan's was being made in a more complicated way. The Pres.\nwould appreciate anything R could do to get support. and R would have to be\nthe best judge of how to do it.\nK told Reagan to stop in on his way back but Reagan said he would be going\nstraight to Calif but would call the next time he is in Wash.\nReproduced at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library\nDECLASSIFIED\nThis document has been reviewed pursuant to Executive Order 13526 and has been determined to be declassified."
