K: I am calling you about that SALT situation.
D: What about?
K: Where things -- before things reach an irritation level here. Semenov made
a proposal for two industrial/administrative centers on both sides. Our objec-
tion was that when we didn't have one on one site you don't solve that problem.
It excludes missile sites. You know our view. Since one reason we didn't
want to go Washington and Moscow because we didn't want to destroy X what
we have/ Two of what we don't want doesn't help us and two of what you have
puts us at a disadvantage. We have tried to help you on Berlin and although
they say we move when you do it would have been correct we probably made
a mistake. We have given you 8 weeks to work out bureaucratic problems.
D: Two sites on your side.
K: So we have made a concession. Now you are saying two administrative
centers.
D: All right with you if ? ? ? ?
.
K: We have proposed that each side picks either two military or one military,
one administrative center.
D: Now we propose two and two. We propose two industrial/military cente rs.
K: We won't accept.
D: What if one by each capitol and one by choice.
K: Capitol doesn't do good. It forces us to destroy what we have built. You
keep what you have and we destroy what we have.
D: You pressed the zerio.
K: We didn't press it. You conducted a masterful negotiation xpikix with Gerard
Smith.
D: Asked it 3 or 4 times.
K: It's your private obsession.
