1/14/70 p.m.
H: The P says he couldn't care if he never saw you again.
K: Okay.
H: He's tired of all the pulling and tugging and silly talk about
wars and bombs.
K: That forces me to take one hundred million away from him.
H: No, he's going through his yogi or whatever he does to get
himself geared up to go to work. If you have something on budget he
wants you to go to John. If there's anything you have to talk about,
he wants to talk on the phone at 5:30.
K: Well, there are two things he must know--on - a message from
Pompidou. For your information, the French have made a huge arms
deal with Libya. It's clearly for Egypt. And there's one other item
having to do with Vietnam.
H: There's nothing on a decision basis you should talk about.
K: The budget thing I will have settled by 5:30.
H: What he wants is that we just don't interrupt him at all until
he emerges at mid-day when he comes out for air and asks 'what's
happening. I
K: Well, if it's between mid-day tomorrow and 5:30 today, leave
him alone. I have two items--one on Vietnam and one on the Middle East
thing- - I think he should know. If he reached a breaking point in his think-
ing and wants to talk, I'll tell him these things.
