for Thieu
K; Well, I told Bunker that for him itxwxx the best thing we could do/now was
to hold our public opinion.
P: That's correct. I don't know, maybe we are wrong, I don't know that this
slight increase is going to hold much opinion. Maybe it isn't.
K: Well, Mr. President, it will hold it in that stupid way of figuring the increase
rate.
P: What?
K: The low figure, it increases therate .
P: So they've got to say itx an increase.
250
K: They have to say the rate is increased to 14,
000
which is an 20% increase.
P: Right, sure.
K: Now there's no way they can get around it. They were the ones that invented
the monthly rate. We never used it before.
P: It's a good figure and it still keeps Thieu with his 200,000.
K: That's right. I promised that to Bunker that we would keep over 200,000
until Oct. 7. So that the heavier withdrawals would be in Oct.
P: When's his election?
K: Oct. 7.
P: Oh, good.
K: So we make the hearier withdrawals that would put it above in Oct. and Nov.
P: xxhxxx That's right. All right. That's good stuff. OK, Henry.
K: Right, Mr. President.
