K: What can I do for you that you can misrepresent?
H: I don't know what you want to do for me. In light of the Edgar Snow piece
anything more tax you can say on the diplomatic on the ping-pong visit.
K: I am not blaming you but twice I have given you what a persceptive
editor could pick up and no one listens. The ping-pong thing wasn't Chou En-lai
waking up and thinking about America. Did you see that note which was snotty? I
know you were serious about it.
H: The FBI reads our files anyway.
K: I get a daily report.
H: You made all sorts of suggestions on the President's efforts but many
private things going on you couldn't talk about.
K: Now that it's surfaced, I cann't go further.
H: But there are number of things we don't know.
K: Obviously you don't know the secrets.
H: On Roger's trip -- on the peace efforts and SO forth you came to it late.
K: When?
H: Saying that you were Jewish and your efforts
K: First part is totally untrue and I have been in it as much as anyone else in
terms of operation.
H: This is a subject Rogers wants for his own. Is this understating it? Bill
is very aggressive about holding on to it and making it his issue. Just doing
his job?
K: He is doing his job.
H: He wants this real bad. Trewhitt is with him. It's interesting in terms of
substance but also a play for the history books.
K: I don't want to get into it. There are constant stories. Most of these
things are done cooperatively with shading here and there.
