TELECON (Tape) Secretary, Rogers/Mr. Kissinger K: Hello. R: Henry. K: Bill. R: I have just talked to General Haig and I have got a little memo here K: Good. R: For the President giving a kind of a little preliminary assessment. K: All right, what's your assessment? R: Well, first of all Gomulka and his close people are out entirely SO they seem to be the scapegoats of the whole affair. K: Yeah, but that's what we know from television already. R: Yeah, but what has come in its place seems to be a pretty modally collection of different factions K: Yeah. R: We have hard liners like Mochar (spelled phonetically) being promoted. K: Mochar is the fellow that was in conflict with them on this anti-Semitic thing a few years ago. R: Yeah, yeah, right and he has been promoted to full member on the Politburo but on the other hand most of Gearicks' (spelled phonetically) people have come up so it looks like it is mainly get rid of Gomulka and the old gang. K: Yeah, but who is Gearick? What is Gearick's position? R: I think he stands pretty well in the middle, he is pragmatic and K: Yeah, but you don't expect the President to understand when you say middle that he knows what the middle of the Polish Communist Party
