R: I took care of what I called about. It was security assistance. Mel claimed
he hadn't gotten the word which I talked with Schlessinger -
K: He was mad but WEX he didn't understand. He wanted a meeting with you
and me and the President after the NSC but we can call this off.
R: I don't think we should bother the President. How do you think he did last
night?
K: Well, Ithought. Except for the withdrawal figure. Mel was back on the phone
first thing this morning.
R: I chuckled at that. It's better to have the Presdient say it rather than
a Cabinet member.
K: He didn't indicate the time period.
R: I was surprised that Howard K. Smith took SO long on SEA -- 40 mins. out
of an hour. Nothing about the hemisphere. And he didnt give the President
enough time to philosophise, which he is SO good at. I thought his last
answer was good but the choice of questions, while well put
K: More aggressive than usual.
R: But it shows no matter what you talk about --
K: It goes in phases. One phase when you couldn't/ about Indochina .
I think Laos will subside in the next few weeks.
