Kissinger: On the Schmidt visit: He couldn't come in October and proposed September 25. I suspect French mischief. You shouldn't be pushed. I think you should go back to the original schedule.
President: We shouldn't interrupt Leone.
Kissinger: That would be very bad taste. If he can't come in October we will tell him we will try to find a day in December.
About a press conference: If you have one next week, I won't.
President: Next Friday, I think.
Kissinger: I think inviting the cosmonauts to a picnic would be overdoing it a bit. Dobrynin would make a big deal of it, and this is the sort of thing the French put in speeches.
