The President
8/4/71 6:00 p.m.
P: Are you in New York?
K: No, I'm in my office in Washington.
P: Oh, the operator told me you were in New York and I told him not to
bother you here. I'm in New York you know.
K: Yes, I heard you were going there.
P: We're with Tricia. We're going to see "No, No, Nanette. 11
K: I think you'11 enjoy it.
P: Ruby Keeler is an old friend. I hope she is still in it.
K: I think she is.
P: Any late developments?
K: The Chinese have blasted the U.S. proposal but they have given it
the same treatment as the statement on Twiwan. They stayed away from
you but blasted Rogers.
P: Didn't get a single question on that today.
K: There has been some inquiry in the press about your comments on the
Soviet Union -- whether you are going to hold up on an agreement. I told
them no, you were going ahead.
P: The two things are totally separate.
K: That's what I said.
P: I was quite clear.
K: And this was absolutely consistent with what we told Dobrynin.
P: And with what the Chinese know.
K: Exactly.
It would be ironical now if they try to squeeze us into an
early summit.
P: And they are crude enough to try. After all the times we've been
around with them. And we'll just treat them the same way they've treated
us if they do. And they111 respect us for it.
K: No, this way the pressures are set up in the right way to do it in that
sequence.
