TelCon Roland Evans/Mr Kissinger 6:32 pm, July 9, 1973 K: Hello. E: Hi Henry. K: I'm afraid I cannot have breakfast with you tomorrow. E: Okay, can we make it Tuesday, or Wednesday. K: I'll have to check on that, I've been-- E: How about a drink after work or something. K: Can I call you about that? E: Oh, sure. K: Okay, I'll call you tomorrow morning. E: Thatid be great. Henry, did you read Hugh Sidey this morning ? K: Yes. E: Did you. What do you think. K: Two people should resign. E: They won't and it's gonna linger. K: If he resigns, we are not going to have a foreign policy for three and a half years. If Agnew gets defeated- no if Agnew wins in '76 we won't have a foreign policy for 3-1/2 years, if he gets defeated we won't have one for five years. We can't affaord that. If they don't want him to resign-- E: I would have put it differently, I would say if he won in '76 we wouldn't have a foreign policy for 7 years because I don't think he's competent to conduct a foreign policy. K: I believe that too. But I have seen two competent presidents for foreign policy when they took over. E: Kennedy and Nixon. K: Kennedy and Nixon. And it takes 20 to 24 months before you are on top of it no matter how good you are.
