TELCON (TAPE)
The President/Mr. Kissinger
9:15 p. m., April 5, 1971
K:
Mr. President
P:
Yeah.
K:
I've just talked to Pat and he actually hasn't read it yet, he locked
i t up in his safe and he was at home.
P:
Oh, yeah -- fine, well, that's okay.
K:
But I'm positive what he will think.
P:
Okay.
a chance to change
.
K:
Right.
P:
Pretty hard to tell
.
K:
Well, I think that's right.
P:
Cause I don't want it to get around and have the staff start nitpicking
me.
K:
They all want you to score a homerun by giving in to what they think
are the pressures and I don't think it can be done that way. I think if
we get ahead of the game, then we can play the peace situation.
P:
Well, there's no homerun to be scored because there's not -- really
nothing more that we can do.
K:
No. Anything more we do, we might just as well leave.
P:
as much as the traffic can
bear.
K:
And mar e.
P:
A little more.
K:
A little more.
P:
probably as much as we can possibly
.
I will just play it pretty cool and sort of nonchalantly.
