Johnson/Kissinger\n10:04 a. m. 4/2/71\nK: On that Thai cable and the Jordanian thing, we should be willing to go along\nonthe Jordanian thing.\nJ; Did you get the revised text?\nK: We made suggestions.\nJ: There whould be a revised text. Instead of using '71 money we would\nuse '72 money.\nK: That makes it easier.\nJ: You should have some revised language on that.\nK: I will check and clear it today.\nJ: '72 RXXXXXXXX money.\nK: Their disposition is to go along and you bax will have clearance by the end of\nthe day. On the Thai business, my people claim they did work with you people\non working level on a better basis then what's worked out. If we could have\na meeting within a couple of weeks of coming back like we did a few months ago\nit\nmight be better. But I would rather have a mediocre package then no\npackage. Do you think we can do that?\ntaken\nKx J: Holding up what we want to do. We have talkxeck so much time already.\nPL 480 took SO much time.\nK: And you check with your people on working group? Wayne Smith handling it\non my side. But I don't know who in your shop.\nJ: Part of the hold up was DOD and ourselves. Packard and I worked it out.\nK: The objection is that these people claim and I haven't studied it -- what they\ndid was develop like Cambodia, various packages, which are analytically va lid\nbut WX of course it has to relate to what's done. We don't want them to have to\nwait another 6 months. If your judgement were that we could at an SRG meeting\nagree on one of the other packages and it were better it would only delay two\nweeks but if it would trigger a delay then I want to go with what we have. Let\nme check on who are people are dealing with.\nJ: I will run it down and call you back.\nK: If you do that then I will make a decision."
