L: Getting along all right on your talks? I had a good meeting this morning.
He objected that German cameras took pictures of the nuclear planning meeting.
He was only joking, of course. The safeguard thing got off to a good start.
I spent all day in the House and will again tomorrow.
K: You will have to be taking the heat on this for a while.
L: I have a note on the Panama thing. I'm sending you a report on that.
If
there's real serious concern from the President we should get Gen. Mather
and Amb. Sayer here. Mather told them of the coup attempt. Maybe they
didn't get it here fast enough.
K: We don't want to peruse it further.
L: I have this thing from Dick Helms.
K: That's just to inform him.
L:
I have another note that it should be coordinated through State. I think
I will send it through State.
K: Exactly right.
L: Some of the WH staff people are concerned about base closings.
K: Not from my people.
L: NO. The problemx is that they say I didn't inform the President of the
economic impact of the closings. told him -- I got into the economic aspects.
You say in at those meetings and Bob Mayo
K: Nonsense. I will swear to it. I agree you have -- do you want me to
drop you a note?
L: No, there's no need.
K: You said it to the President 4 or 5 times. I have a note from the President
on the Williams case. The Phillipino thing. He is agreeable to your sending
him back but he wants you to cut Clark field personnel by 1/3.
L: If they want to do that, it's OK. Those Phillippines I don't know why
we want to send them rifles and things. I'm not for sending that man back.
K: If you want to appeal it , send me a note.
