He said he had gone SO far in his plans with Stanford it would be\nembarrasing to change them. I said it would be embarassing to the President\nif he didn't change them. I gave him a real sales pitch. I said he would be\nleaving a vaccum and his absence would be a great\nto you.\nK: We have brought SALT to a point which we could not have done without\nthat systems analyses.\nM: After I got through, he said he would reconsider. If there's anything\nelse, let me know.\nK: He hasn't said anything to me yet but if you think another talk would help --\nbut you seem to have said everything that would matter.\nM: At one point he said he was shaken and would re-consider. He said\neventually he would like to return to government and he wondered if a future\ngovernment would tar him if he stayed on this. I told him that a thing that would\ntar him would be to walk out in the middle.\nK: I'm the one taking the policy rap.\nM: I said that ? ? ? ? ?\nK: I don't believe it will hurt him.\nM: I don't either and it will expand his experience. Some of the things he\nhas worked on will come to fruition in the next year.\nK: His role is that of an analyst and he won't suffer.\nIDA\nM: Keep me informed. The second point is the problem of the 3rd idea\nreplenishment (?).\nK: I haven't had a full read out but I don't think it was raised. I could call\nthe Germany Ambassad or and say it wasn't reaised but should have been.\nM: I think it's damn important because xisbsx there's a meeting\ntomorrow\nbetween ? ? ? in Bonn.\nK: I will call Pauls and be sure to rais e it.\nM: It's possible that Rogers brought it up with him."
