W: I don't know yet. They are in an absolute tizzy, but that's a
question I have in.
K: The thought is that
the mass will probably last an hour or
whatever. The thought is that he will pay a courtesy call on Pompidou
and leave. Or pay a courtesy call on Pompidou, to the reception, if there
is one, for 15 minutes, and then leave. The whole idea is that we are
paying tribute to deGaulle. We are there for no other business than pay-
ing tribute to deGaulle.
W: I will stress this if we get any questions from the press.
K: At the moment I am trying to murder the Press Secretary SO he
doesn't take two hundred people.
W: I've gotten a request for 100 press accomodations.
K: I want to knock that down. Don't you think that's too heavy on press?
W: Yes, with Air Force Once and Air Force Two and advance planes and
a press plane, that's quite a few people.
K: I take it the widow will be in Colombe?
W: Yes.
K: How far is that?
W: About two hours by car.
K: How about choppers; I don't suppose they would be available.
W: I'm sure we could get some down from Germany.
K: I was wondering about choppering fo Colombe, paying respects and
then leaving.
W: I can check.
K: But don't tell everyone.
W: I won't mention this possibility to anyone.
K: But I would like to know the logistics.
