PUBLIC INFORMATION PN-2D ADMINISTRATION AD-3 August 29, 1972 10 Mr. President: You may wish to see this brief reply I have mile to Halberstam's attached piece in the Septemb r 19727 Esquire. I know, of course, the reasons for continuing to ignore writing of this type. But I finally concluded that one among those who have been brutally caricatured by Halberstam (President Johnson, Secretary Rusk, Bob McNamara, Mac Bundy, Max Taylor, etc.) ), should record with dignity the fact that his use of evidence has been quite corrupt. I talked with Mad Bundy before sending this in. He did not encourage me to answer but he confirmed that there were 6 or 7 major inaccuración S in Halberstam's portrait of him in Harper's. In any case, I thought you might wish to read this piece, which will probably be published in the November 1972 issue of Esquire. Rostow
