Rh on the basis of this text. I have worked with you before. Your suggestions will be mine. If you could get Mr. Lord's name in it, his mother would appreciate it. [Laughter]

Do you wish us to type it and give you the correct version? Can you wait five minutes?

Yes.

[The new draft Communique was typed]

Can we make an agreement that when President Ford is here we will not negotiate an agreement? We will do it ahead of time.

Of course! Otherwise, the visit would be prolonged.

Very long. Actually, the last time, we had two-thirds done before we came here. Three-fourths, even. All right, you let us know.

[As he was leaving the meeting room] Dr. Kissinger, you will visit before the President?

I think probably I will have to come here two months before he visits. Mr. Foreign Minister, again, thank you for your cooperation.

[The meeting concluded at 11:15 p.m.]
