TELECON
(President spoke very softly
The President/Mr. Kissinger
very difficult to hear)
7:43 p.m., September 21, 1970
K:
You say you are leaning to keeping the trip on.
P:
In every possible way, we are not going to be in position to be in
the middle of it.
K:
I think we should go full speed ahead, Mr. President.
P:
Just because the Israelis are having a little battle with the Syrians,
we are not going to be moding around.
K:
Would expect that the Soviets would make some sharp move under
these conditions.
P:
We have got to go on as if the world is still turning.
K:
The fleet will have to leave its station around the 26th, 5 days from
now, SO we have plenty of time.
P:
We don't have to have exercises, just knock that off -- don't have
to
have the whole fleet over there.
K:
Have most of the fleet there.
P:
We don't have to go to the carrier you understand. -7-222227-2
Think you should continue the plan as if the trip was going to go on
and we could cancel but not before Wednesday evening. Everybody
will understand if we knock it off.
K:
Have you had a chance to talk to Bob about the Queen?
P:
?????
K:
We ought to invite the Annenbergs.
P:
That's fine, that's fine, it would be very nice for Mrs. Nixon to see
Checquers.
