It may not work that way.\nH: He believes if you delay it, it will unravel\nK: That's one of the problems. Let me get back on that. I will\ncall you back on that.\nH: OK. I think you outght to leave very, very quickly, Henry.\nK: Right. Let me\nOK, let me consult with some of the people\nhere on that.\nH:\nOK.\nK: Al, on these\nthe energy group, we are sending the letter\nout tonight. I don't think he wants to see it, its substantively what\nwas in the speech.\nH: Yes. I would send it out so Ziegler can talk about it.\nK: OK, but we want to handle it\nZiegler can announce tomorrow\nmorning that the letters are being delivered tomorrow. Then Ziegler\ncan release the text of the letters Thursday morning. Let the\ngovernments have the texts of the letter for a day before we release\nit. We will send the text and not release it then. Simply have Ziegler\nannounce it tomorrow that the letters have been sent to both\nthe consumer and producing countries.\nH: Release the consumers.\nK: No, release both. I have decided that both Simons and I could\nbrief together on\nH: Thursday.\nK: Yes. After the letters have been released for awhile. I will\nbe glad to do the briefing alone, but with Simons together that\nmore clearly Presidential.\nH: And that's the big thing. You ought to do that.\nK: And that way he's got the whole thing free tomorrow. Say the\nletters have been send early and that will have the whole afternoon\npapers on the letters. We ought to do some briefing on it."
