J: I am a little disturbed as a result of the comments by the President
on the ABM. They are apt to leak this thing for some time. Mansfield
and some of the others are sending out
I have it from their
staff.
K: We aren't. Let them make asses of themselves.
J: I agree. I have been very carefull and not said anything. But we
should not let them go on this way for the next month.
K: What do you think?
J: I think we should cut them off.
K: I could do a backgrounder tomorrow or Friday for 15 mins. I could
step into the Zeigler briefing tomorrow morning and say that. Can I get
your real feelings? I know you don't want it in the northwest this year
and I know why. Does that mean you cannot go for it?
J: If we put it near cities it puts me in an untenable position.
K: Where is Ft. Lewis?
J: Near a population area -- in the Army's inimitable way. You know how
I feel.
K: On this point, as in few, I don't completely agree with you. I understand
why you don't want it this year.
?/ of P. ? ? ?
K: The problem is that they're trying to drive us out of area defense.
J: You don't have to get into Washington, D. C. , or the northeast this
year. We could go for additional
or strengthen up the first
two.
K: Let me talk to you about it. We will not go into the northwest against
your opposition. But let me talk to you about Washington at sometime.
J: I know Stennis has a speech. We should have an understanding on
the Sentate side before any move
K: Before a final decision we will talk to you.
