And if you like,\nI can make it warmer. Secondly, I have just finished a suggested talking\npaperkx for the President for use with the Mediterranean ambassadors,\nwhich was rather presumptuous of me.\nK: Not at all. That's what I wanted you to do.\nS: Am very anxious for him to see this. I think it's got the kind of\nview which the President and you and I would like to have reflected to the\nAmbassadors. I will put it in the usual bureaucratic way into the book,\nbut I hav e also sent you an extra copy.\nK: Good.\nS: Third, I just got a call in from the field. Palmer suggested, and\nI think it's very good, that I should brief all the Ambassadors on the Mid-\ndle East before the President at 11:00.\nK: That's a good idea.\nS: I thought it was; I just wanted to be sure. I would do it at 9:00.\nK: That's terrific. If the Secretary agrees we are strongly in\nfavor, and I don't see how he can not want you to. There were two\nthings I wanted to mention to you/ The President is thinking that you\nought to go back after Naples; he wants you here to watch things: we\nare not that much out of the woods yet.\nS: And Laird thinks my presence would give it too much xx a\nMiddle Eastern flavor.\nK: That I hadn't heard. XXX\nS: Let's leave it at that one day in Naples, then I 11 come back."
