L: I wanted to check one or two things with you. First, on the SALT
presentation, I understand we are not going to be able to look at the
presentation for Monday.
K: Why?
L: I was talking with Gardner and the presentation isn't ready.
K: I don't know, I haven't looked at it. We are not doing it.
L: My understanding is that we are just going with C.
K: No!
L: They had a briefing ? ?
K: That's what State and ACDA are trying to peddle but I'm putting out a
Presidential directive that even a child can understand. We are presenting D.
L: They said that was only a public relations thing.
K: I'm getting up set about this.
L: That's what Gardner said.
K: Gardner is a first rate guy. This is the game some people are trying to
play but we won't have it.
L: I thought the signals may have been changed and I was trying to find out
what the deal was.
K: Gerry said do I have to present them together. I said that was physically
impossible and he would have to present them one after the other. So he
figured we were just going for C and he could fool around with D.
L: ? ? ? ? I may call him. I want this for
Gardner.
K: I heard this was said by Bill at the backstop meeting.
L: I'm having a little trouble on my speech. I have to take a little different
line because I have to build support for my budget and ABM. I had SO much
trouble this week.
K: We have no problem with the speech. The only thing I wonder -- but
I
