MEMORANDUM FOR HENRY A. KISSINGER

FROM: Al Haig

SUBJECT: Request by a German Publisher to Publish in
German Your Entire Works

Yesterday, Mr. Dohrn (accompanied by a German publisher, Mr. Gunther Neske) visited Dr. Kraemer at his office in the Pentagon.

Mr. Neske would like to publish in German your entire works. Mr. Neske had a full list of your books and single articles, such as had appeared in the Reporter, in Foreign Affairs, etc.

Dr. Kraemer stated that he had met Mr. Neske for the first time and that he made a good first impression. Mr. Neske seemed to Dr. Kraemer to have the same opinions on the world in general that you might have.

Mr. Neske would like to drop in and see you briefly and will be in town until tomorrow afternoon sometime and can be reached at the Washington Hilton.

Will see Mr. Neske

Will not see Mr. Neske

Will talk to Mr. Neske on the phone

Dear Sir:

For a number of years the Social Science Foundation and the
Graduate School of International Studies of the University of Denver
has held an annual high school conference for Colorado High Schools.
We are in the process of preparing a study kit for our 36th conference,
to be held this fall. This study kit includes an outline guide along
with questions for discussion, pamphlets and other helpful materials
such as excerpts and reproductions referred to in this letter.

An attendance of approximately 800 students and sponsors is
anticipated and we would like permission to reproduce, without charge,
the article "Nato: Evolution or Decline" by H. A. Kissinger, in the
Autumn, 1966, Issue of the Texas Quarterly, pp. 110-118. Full acknow-
ledgment of the source of the material will be made, of course.

We do not feel that we can charge the high school students for
the material in their study kits and find that reproduction of the
printed matter used is the most economical way in which we can supply
the guides for the conference. High schools throughout the state will
be observing the NATO Twentieth Anniversary and we are cooperating with
them by choosing this theme for our conference.

If it is necessary to obtain the author's permission, would you
be kind enough to send us his address? We would appreciate an early
acknowledgment of our request. Thank you.

Dear Mr. Kissinger,

Would it be possible for you to send to Mr. Ireland a copy of your article: "Central Issues of American Foreign Policy," which was published in: "Agenda for the Nation."

We tried to obtain a copy from the Brookings Institution but they said they did not have single copies and gave us your address.

Thanking you.

Verehrtester,

ich möchte Sie rasch wissen lassen, dass ich dieser Tage
endlich! Ihren Aufsatz über Bismarck (in "Daedalus") gelesen habe
und dass ich ihn grossartig finde, ganz hinreissend. Ich habe, was
Ihren Denkstil in politicis betrifft, viel daraus gelernt.

Sehr gespannt bin ich auf das Buch, das Sie schreiben werden,
wenn Sie Ihre Affaire mit Nixon erst hinter sich haben.

Mit allen guten Wünschen für Ihre Arbeit und Ihr per-
sönliches Wohlergehen und herzlichen Grüssen:

Dear Mr. Kissinger:

I am writing in the hope that you might be kind enough to
take a moment from your busy schedule to send your autograph.

Permit me to mention that my mother and grandparents, who
were born in Germany, tell me that they knew your **ГКМУЕРКА** family
in Germany; they were very pleased when you were appointed to
your present position.

Permit me also to mention my hope that your article in
Foreign Affairs about Viet Nam, which received such great atten-
tion at the time of your appointment, remains an indication of
your thinking on that subject. I was very encouraged when I read
that article, as it evinced a very realistic, and I thought, help-
ful view of the situation. However, I must say that the course of
administration policy has not been encouraging to me. Recently I
wrote to the President suggesting caution with regard to troop
withdrawals, and received a reply indicating that the President
is doing all he can to withdraw the troops as quickly as possible.
Evidently I received the wrong form letter, and I hope that that
letter represents obeisance to public opinion rather than a serious
formulation of administration policy.

I am as partisan a Republican as anyone, but I do not want to
see a Republican President choosing wrongly between statesmanship
and popularity, if that is the choice confronting him. The troop
withdrawals may be popular now, but may we not regret that course
ten or twenty years hence?

I look forward to hearing from you.

With thanks for your kindness, and best regards,

THE WHITE HOUSE

This deals with the French
translation of your last hook, and
whether you want to check it over.

Orengo also wants the French
publication date to coincide with
one of your visits to Europe in
the first half of 1970.

Reply will have to be handled
in your own office.

Cher Monsieur Kissinger,

Il m'a été très agréable d'acquérir les droits de traduction en langue française de votre ouvrage, AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY, non seulement en raison de l'intérêt que les trois études qui le composent présentent, mais aussi en souvenir des entretiens que j'avais eu le plaisir d'avoir avec vous lorsqu'il m'avait été donné de faire votre connaissance, alors que j'étais Directeur Littéraire chez PLON où nous avions envisagé une publication périodique franco-américaine.

Je suis actuellement en possession de la traduction de votre ouvrage, établie par l'un des meilleurs traducteurs d'anglais du moment, Raymond Albeck. Souhaitez-vous en prendre connaissance où la faire lire par l'un de vos collaborateurs ?

Pour ce qui est de sa date de publication, je souhaiterais la faire coïncider avec un des voyages que vous ne manquerez pas de faire en Europe, dans le courant du premier semestre 1970 et qui serait peut-être l'occasion pour vous d'un séjour à Paris.

Dans l'attente de votre réponse, je vous prie de croire, Cher Monsieur Kissinger, à l'assurance de mes sentiments les meilleurs et les plus dévoués.

Dear Mr. Yoshizawa:

Thank you for your letter of September 5.

I was interested to hear of your work in
translating "American Foreign Policy." I
appreciate the thoughtfulness of your sug-
gestion, but regret that it would appear
preferable that I not add some new lines to
it now. Since assuming my present position
(after the essays were written), I have made
it a practice not to make either written or
public statements.

I am glad that my translator was a man of
your experience.

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

I have been asked by my friend, Mr. Saiji Hasegawa, President of the Jiji Press who acquired the copyright of your "American Foreign Policy" to publish here a Japanese translation, to render your so-to-speak horizontal writing to a vertical arrangement as we may literally say because of the difference between the English and Japanese languages. Myself being a student of diplomacy and foreign policy - in fact having been in the Japanese Foreign Service before retiring in 1958 from my last assignment in India where my American colleague was Ellsworth Bunker - I gladly accepted Mr. Hasegawa's offer and finished the job just a week ago.

Just at the time when my manuscript is being handed over for printing we are now taken by surprise by the news of Ho Chi Minh's demise which seems to be bound to affect the course of the Paris peace talks in one way or the other. Apart from the very recent events taking place in Vietnam and elsewhere, much water has flown under the bridge since your book was published and there have been a few changes in the international situation. Though I am convinced that most of your arguments not only hold good in spite of these changes but even endorsed and confirmed by the ensuing developments, I wonder if you, in view of the lapse of time, would care to write just a few lines to be incorporated into the Japanese language edition of "American Foreign Policy".

Hoping that you would forgive my suggestion and oblige me with your comments, I remain,

Yours very sincerely,
