TELECON
Mr. Kissinger/Secretary Laird
2:30 p. m., April 24, 1970
L:
Good morning, Henry.
K:
Mel, it's afternoon.
L:
X I just got through with Dr. Draper and the President of
Johns Hopkins, and I've lost track of time.
K:
You politicians give the academicians too much credit. I know
Linc Gordon (Pres of Johns Hopkins), and he is a good man.
L:
I like Dr. Draper, too; I've known him a long time.
K:
The President keeps bugging me on two things: (a) tac air,
but I think I have that under control; and (b) can you do the B-52 - things
for a while. I am ordered to tell you that. May I tell him they will
be done?
L:
Sure, we can put them in. I think we have one tonight and we
have one tomorrow. It takes 36 hours to cycle it.
K:
Cycle them through next week. Another subject: he may want
to have a meeting on Sunday -- he isn't sure. Will you be in town?
L:
I will be in town on Sunday afternoon. If you could make it
at 4:30 or 5:00, it would suit me better.
K:
Subject to his approval, of course, we can do that.
