Bernard Kalb/Secretary Kissinger
July 12, 1974
12:20 PM
HAK: How are you?
K: Fine. Thank you very much, sir. I just wanted a moment if I could,
I was going to try actually to stop by for a second before leaving for San
Clemente to drop off a bound copy of the book, which we just have received.
HAK: Oh, terrific.
K: But Dr. Kissinger, my office called to ask me to look into the story in
the Wall Street Journal which I assume you may have seen this morning.
HAK: No.
K: It's on the front page on the top, Nixon and Kissinger head toward a falling
out.
HAK: Oh, baloney.
K: And he says the President fails to aid the Secretary of State on the wire
tapping controversy; Kissinger would like a White House statement that he's
telling the truth.
HAK: That's also nonsense.
K: All of that
HAK: Yes. I'm certain the President will say what needs to be said
before that is over and it's just not true.
K: Can I use some of this of what you're saying, nonsense of this whole
report? I mean would it be alright if [were to quote you on this ? Or just
take it on background and so forth.
HAK: Take it on background. But you can make it very strong.
K: The whole story?
HAK: Yes. I mean, for example, somebody read me a part of it this
morning. For example, he fails to inform me of a Japanese trip. He failed
to inform me of a trip he isn't taking.
K: I see.
HAK: That was with respect to the story that he was going to Japan in
