I thought I could make some of the points we mentioned this afternoon.\nP: The Nieman Fellows are people who become editors, etc.\nK: These are already\nP: My view in talking to them is to talk about the process.\nK: I thought I would\nP: I just read the NYT and I must say that it went pretty well\nK: About the speech? The account on the editorial page?\nP: Reston said it was a great speach. Do you know him? I don't\nK: Yes, quite well and that's outstanding and I was just talking to Fulbright\nand he said he had nothing to criticize.\nP: I had in mind two things. The Neiman thing you are doing the right thing.\nSay:\nI am taking into account what hours the man takes and for days he read and\nread in a broad field. History, philosophy. Then I had you buzz in to give\nyou an idea of what I was doing. They are all xxgdx writers and they should\nknow I know the agony of writing.\nK: I found that giving them a little feel for the WH. The staff thinks it natural\nof course but outsiders find it outstanding.\nP: On Reston I though you might give him a ring. I read your thing and\nwanted you to know who it came about. Then show him the files. And the\nother fellow.\nK: I may ask him in to lunch.\nP: Don't be too obvious, I agree. So you can chat about the details. Stay\naway from programs. The main thing is the spririt of the thing.\nK: I think also that philosophical bent. You cannot have written what you\ndid without reflection.\nReproduced at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library\nDECLASSIFIED\nThis document has been reviewed pursuant to Executive Order 13526 and has been determined to be declassified."
