Secretary Laird/Mr. Kissinger
11:15 - 6/21/71
HAK:
Hello. I just talked to Mardian and told him what we had
discussed. Their case has been referred to the Second Circuit
Court. Any investigation you have should continue today at the
Pentagon.
Laird:
The NSA document is the strongest one we have. I just wanted
to make sure you understand some of the Johnson papers have
been declassified. I sent three men down there to declassify
them for President Johnson. He wanted certain ones declassified,
so we sent them down. The only ones we declassified were the
ones that Johnson wanted. I wanted to remind you of this, that
the three people were sent down there on the specific instructions
of the President of the United States. This will be a problem if
it
gets out.
HAK:
I vaguely remember. That's right he called me in San Clemente.
He was kidding me about
Laird
(laughed)
HAK:
What are you guys going to do when you don't have me to laugh at.
Laird:
Now Henry you know better.
HAK:
I know - no problem.
Laird:
This declassification was done for Johnson's book he was writing.
HAK:
OK.
