Mr. Kissinger
Mike Wallace
10/6/71; 8:20 p.m.
W: I am sorry to trouble you we are talking about the possibility

of Kissinger-China - trip.
K: You said that yesterday already!
W: We did not talk about our interest in doing an entire hour on that.

K: What do you want from me -- an answer whether we could
W: If you could tell me anybody with whom I could most strategically and
quickly get in touch.
K: In the White House?

W: Alright, sir.
