Mr. Kissinger/
Mr. Head in Prime Minister Trudeau's Office
K:
Hello.
H:
Dr. Kissinger. This is Iving(?) Head speaking in Prime Minister
Trudeau's office. I meddle around on foreign policy for Prime
Minister Trudeau. He wanted to express to you an increasing
feeling that in his words are growing - feelings of anti-American.

The reason I called today is because we have been

Well certainly from our political interest here - it is wrong for
the U.S. not to have the old image they had.
K:
On the telephone or what.
H:
Well, they have talked on the phone before. If they could meet
it would be much better
