TELECON - HAK and DEAN ACHESON 12/26/70 1040 am
By ETD
K:
Just wanted to let you know I am going away and plan to work on
the President's Annual Report. I'm taking my staff with me.
A:
I wanted to come in to see you but since you are going to be away
I plan to go away on the 4th (January). When will you return?
K:
I plan to be back here on the morning of the 4th.
A:
That's when I leave. I can come in today or talk on the phone
what would you like?
K:
I'll be happy to see you. But if you want to talk on the phone
I'll leave it up to you.
A:
Well, I wanted to talk with you about the memorandum I left you
on South West. Did it make any impression?
K:
Indeed, yes. You called to my attention the disgraceful situation
which I had to learn from you
that the Government had taken a
position. We are trying to sort it out now.
A:
Would it hurt or help you for me to give attention to this?
K:
It could hurt us.
A:
You know. people might read something in it.
say you put me up
to it.
K:
I know what you mean. People will say we're in ca-hoots (laughter).
Even if I never laid eyes on you. If anyone ever gave me credit for
putting you up to something Kxxx on international law analyses, I
would be flattered. I am concerned that something like this could
happen without the White House being consulted. A public statement
by you would be very helpful.
A:
All right, I'll be busy on it.
K:
I'll be in touch with you through the usual channel. If you find something
is happening we should know about we'll be most grateful if you will get
in touch with us unsolicited.
A agreed to do SO. K thanked him for his moral and other support.
