TELECON
The President/Kissinger
October 23, 1973
6:50 p. .m.
K. Mr. President.
N. Were you able to make any sales on that line we a
were talking about this morning?
K. Yes, I can't tell how they did. I talked to Dinitz for one
thing. I talked to a group of Jewish leaders. I call Mansfield.
N. Is he in town?
K. I don't know where they reached him.
N. I know, you never can tell with the White Hous e switchboard.
You got Eban. He was all right. How about Congress?
K. I called a number of them. Most of the ones we discussed.
I stressed the point of the decision you made. They were all
very complimentary. Nobody raised the current issue.
N. Not even Mansfield? He is probably embarrassed. Ted
Kennedy is pushing him.
K. Ted Kennedy called
and said you had settled it all this
afternoon.
N. You mean about Sirica? They will want it all for the Committee.
K. They will want everything.
N. No more!
K. I am not sure you.
You cannot possibly do more without
impairing the Presidency.
N. I told Haig, "Now Al, there can't be any more." It is not
possible. The next thing they will go into India, Pakistan,
Cambodia, everything we have done. The Foreign Relations
Committee will want everything. We are going to stand firm.
