THE SECRETARY OF STATE
WASHINGTON

December 13, 1974

Dear Mr. President;

I want to thank you for your magnificent
hospitality during the President's visit to
Korea and for the tremendous reception you
accorded him.

The President's visit affirmed the endur-
ing friendship between our two peoples and gave
new vigor to the alliance which binds us together.

I particularly appreciated the extensive
discussions that we held on this occasion. These
talks were, I believe, highly productive. They
emphasized again the critical importance of our
relations and brought us closer to our common
goals of security and peace.

I also want to thank you for your gift of
the white porcelain vase. For this, as well as
for the success of the President's visit, I am
deeply grateful.

His Excellency
Park Chung Hee,
President of the Republic of Korea,
Seoul.

December 13, 1974

Dear Mr. Minister:

I want you to know how much I appreciated seeing you during the President's visit to Korea. Our talks were, I believe, most useful and served to reaffirm the enduring friendship between our two nations.

I am grateful also for the truly magnificent reception you accorded the President and for all that you and your colleagues did to make his visit a success.

His Excellency
Dong Jo Kim,
Minister of Foreign Affairs
of the Republic of Korea,
Seoul.

December 13, 1974

Dear Mr. Prime Minister:

I want to thank you for your gracious hospitality on the occasion of the President's visit to Korea. I am grateful also for our opportunity to review current developments and reaffirm our common interests and objectives.

It is unusual if not unprecedented for a former student and professor to hold a "class reunion" amid the pageantry of an official State visit. I am particularly heartened by the fact that the same free exchange continues between us, just as it does between our two nations.

Our countries have remained firm allies for many years, facing common problems, and working toward mutually beneficial solutions in the areas of peace and security. I am most pleased that we have had this opportunity to confirm the enduring nature of our friendship.

Best regards,

His Excellency
Jong Pil Kim,
Prime Minister
of the Republic of Korea,

Dear Secretary Kissinger:

Prior to your departure on January 20th from the State Department, I would like to express, on behalf of my Government as well as on my own behalf, my deep appreciation for the generous and understanding support you have always rendered to the cause of the Republic of Korea during your tenure of office under President Nixon and President Ford.

In conducting the diplomacy for the United States, you have consistently demonstrated deep sense of realism along with the traditional spirit of idealism of the American people and, consequently, you have made unprecedented contribution to the promotion of world peace and justice, worthy of special recognition. I am certain that the future historians of world affairs will not hesitate extending you special tribute and respect as a great diplomat and gifted statesman.

I happily recall my own personal contacts with you in Washington, D.C., and in New York dealing with matters of mutual concern to our two countries and remember your confident posture coupled with a great sense of humor in the midst of heavy work as the Secretary of State. It has been a real pleasure and privilege to have had in recent years an opportunity of working with a statesman in the United States who is equipped with the gift of balancing idealism and pragmatism, morality and reality in dealing with the real world which is both imperfect and immoral in many respects. I have immensely enjoyed reading

your essays on international relations and
various policy statements and I have often
felt that you are a great philosopher at the
same time. In this context, I send you my
warmest felicitation on the very timely essay
you have recently contributed to the Time
magazine in which you have revealed your
seasoned view on the role of the United States
in the changing world community.

Thanks largely to your remarkable effort
and cooperation during the past eight years,
I believe, the Republic of Korea has made much
progress in consolidating its defense capability,
accelerating economic development and promoting
the welfare of its people in the face of ever-
present danger from the communist north Korea.
If the skill in modern technology, oriental work
ethic, faith, social cohesiveness and discipline
are the secrets for prosperity and security in
this part of the world, I am confident that our
patient effort in Korea inspired by the spirit
of self-reliance and self-help will continue to
enable our people, having some such qualities,
to reap further significant achievements in the
future towards their ultimate goal of peaceful
reunification, human dignity and sustained
prosperity. In so doing, it goes without saying
that we will never cease our effort to maintain
close, constructive and friendly relations with
your great country.

Though you will soon be leaving the high
office, I am confident that you will assume
no less important place outside of the adminis-
tration and perform equally valuable service to
your country and to the world. I also take
great comfort in knowing that we will be assured
of your continued friendship and sympathetic
understanding towards our country and its people
even after your departure from the public office.

November 1, 1974.

Dear Mr. Ambassador,

Our friend Ranga the Cartoonist was at the airport at the time of the departure of the Hon'ble Dr. and Mrs. Kissinger. He was in the "shamiana" hoping that as is usual, the Secretary of State and Mrs. Kissinger would pass by that side before emplaning and he would get the enclosed cartoons autographed by them. However, as you know, at the last minute, we decided that the Hon'ble Dr. and Mrs. Kissinger would bid farewell to the Indian dignitaries outside the "shamiana" and proceed straight to the aircraft. On seeing this happening, Ranga tried his best to come near the aircraft but he was rightly prevented from doing so by the Security staff. In these circumstances, he has pleaded with me whether I could get these cartoons autographed by Dr. and Mrs. Kissinger for him.

I wonder if you can help him in this and
I leave the final decision to you.

With kind regards,

H.E. Dr. D.P. Moynihan,
Ambassador of the United States of America,

August 13, 1976

Dear Secretary Kissinger:

It was great of you to accept the invitation to speak to "The Presid-
dentials," the President Ford Committee youth effort at the National
Convention. I have had an opportunity to meet with many young people
during the past year and I know they are enthusiastic and want to
participate in the governmental process. I believe they can help the
President tremendously and with your assistance, we can create the
right kind of spirit for the fall.

We now have you scheduled for Thursday, August 19 at 4-5 p.m. Please be sure to contact me in Kansas City at 467 3961 if for any reason your schedule changes.

As I mentioned on the telephone, you can expect to spend about an
hour, with 20 minutes of remarks and 40 minutes or so of Q&A. There
will be between 500-1000 participants, depending upon the activities
of the moment. You will be speaking from a stage, and I will intro-
duce you to the group. In addition I hope you will be able to spend
a few moments throughout the week mixing with the young people.

The Presidential Headquarters is in the Kansas City Trade Mart which
was the old Municipal Airport--only ten minutes from the Convention
hotels. A map is enclosed for your information. I will meet you at the
door of Exhibition Hall #3, which will be marked "VIP Entrance," a lit-
tle before 4 p.m. to go over the last minute details. Also enclosed
is a backgrounder on "The Presidential."

I look forward to seeing you in Kansas City. Please don't hesitate to
contact me if you have any questions.

Secretary of State

Dear Mr. Secretary,

On September 5th, 6th, and 7th the National Symphony will hold its annual fund raising Radiothon. In past years the members of the President's Cabinet have been most generous in donating personal services and mementos to be auctioned over the air. I understand from Carol Simon that you would like to lend your support this year.

Under separate cover are two copies of *Kissenger* as well as a white card framed with dominoes. We would be most honored and grateful if you could fill the domino frame with some personal message which seems appropriate. We would also appreciate very much your autographing the books. These items should be delivered to the National Symphony office as soon as it is convenient.

May I thank you ahead of time for your cooperation and generosity.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

As you will recall, during former President Nixon's historic visit to China in 1972, he gave Chairman Mao Tse-Tung a porcelain sculpture featuring the swan as a new peace symbol. In commemoration of the event, I designed the enclosed tie.

In view of President Ford's impending visit to China in 1975, which will be an equally historic event, I thought you might like to have a similar tie, which please accept with my compliments and particularly with my congratulations on the outstanding job you are doing as our Secretary of State.

With my personal regards and all good wishes this holiday season, I remain,

Dear Mr. Paul:

It has just come to my attention that the certi-
ficate for the tree planted in Secretary Kissinger's
honor by Houston Post 574 of the Jewish War Veterans
was inadvertently included on the Secretary's desk
last December with a special group of holiday greetings.
It is for this reason that your kind memorial was
never acknowledged, and I deeply regret the oversight.

In spite of our administrative slip-up, however,
please be assured that the Secretary was deeply touched
and honored to have had the tree planted in his name
in the grove in Shahariya. In fact, nothing could have
pleased him more, for he has always had a particular
appreciation for the beauty, symbolism, and appro-
priateness of Israel's memorial forests. He hopes that
you will convey his heartfelt thanks to the members
of Houston Post 574 and our apologies for the delay in
transmitting them to you.
