P: I understand you and Mel have been working pretty hard.
K: On the budget?
P: Yeah.
K: Everytime Mel gets XXX through explaining the budget to me I think he is
talking Swahili.
P: Everyone stays confused and no one knows what's going on.
K: We did x what you suggested and OMB came back with suggestions. I
thought everyone was happy.
P: We are. I am calling to thank you. The other thing is Dr. David's letter
to the President on stand off capability.
K: I saw that.
P: I wanted to chat. I have no reason why he shouldn't send it to the President.
It's consistent with what I think whx should be done but I want to be sure what
program we want to implement. I am in general agreement with what he says
there's
although XXX more detail work to be done. If he wants to send it to the President,
I don't object.
K: How do we move it after the President has seen it.
P: I will have a program prepared. It's underway now. We could submit it
to the DPRC or anyway it's appropriate butxqhxex question of what can be done.
Anything done within a year will be determined by action. We will need (?) )
the Israelis' help. I think we could do better with stand off capabilities then
we can by giving them aircraft.
K: I would recommend that you complete your study and we put it into the
Sr. Review Group.
P: That's fine.
K: I will tell the President when I transmit David's letter that's what you are doin,
P: If he wants to back it up with a memo, fine, or you can tell him and XXXXX say
it will get done.
K: Good.
