K:
My strong conviction on the news Mr. President is that the events
are going to speak for us.
P:
Well in other words. We will probably lose this vote.
K:
No.
P:
You don't think this is the wrong signal to the Russians(?)
I think
K:
No I think the Russians/understand that you have defeated these
guys before. I mean this is the sense of the Senate. It is almost
our program, it is a lousy thing to cut off funds. I would much
rather win the vote and I will bleed my heart out to these liberal
Senators and I think
actions
P:
Then in other words as far as the effect of the
XXXdexNXXjust
let them speak for themselves.
absolutely
K:
I would just/act cold bloodedly confident.
P:
True, we are, we are.
K:
That is my impression. Because I think Mr. President.they have
got one more
aronnd Hue. And we may actually win this
god damn thing now.
P:
Well that is what we are going to try to do now - I mean do now.

K:
XXIX Thuy saw Chou En-lai yesterday - no one has said yet
what they are going to do.
P:
Where did he see him in Peking.
K:
In Peking on the way back to Hanoi.
P:
With the Chinese - I know you are going to tell them - remember
I told them and you told them too we will make absolutely no deal
with the Russians that we are not prepared to make with them.
So in my letter to him will you make that point. There will be
some agreemements - agreements that have been going on for a
long time and are absolutely bilateral. They are not related to
anything else. We are ready to do any that you are interested
or any others that we have discussed. I think it is very important
that they know - for trade for example, we are going to give them
the same things we are going to give the Russians. Don't you think
this is important.
