Wanted to make sure that they approved of\nwhat we proposed.\nK:\nThey are meeting right now to make their counter-proposal and will\nreach here by morning.\nF:\nThey were hoping they would be having a proposal tonight.\nK:\nHere's the problem, they want to put before me, they are meeting at\n6 o'clock and they are going to have their proposal in about six hours.\nThey will not be able to get the agreement of their industry and this\nwill not be their final proposal which I assume will not be acceptable.\nSomething definitely by Monday night.\nF:\nHere I've been sitting on my butt for three weeks and they come back\nand want to have it in two days\nK:\nThey have to have legislation, it can't be gotten voluntary. ? ? ?\nF:\nI told the Ambassador today and I have a date with him for 3 .m. on\nSunday (or Monday -- couldn't understand).\nK:\nWell, come back at 3:00 p.m. on Monday and say screw them. I just\nwanted you to know and be aware of what's going on. Don't use that\nIrish temper on me Flanigan, I have an Irish girlfriend and\nF:\nI didn't mean it with regard to you but I meant it with regard to them.\nK:\nThe trouble with you is that you are a racist.\nF:\nWhat?\nK:\nYou don't like yellow people.\nF:\nWhat do you think?\nK:\nI think it is outrageous, if the thing leaks out and they have to wait\nanother two weeks, that is okay.
