UNIVERSITY OF PUERTO RICO

RIO PIEDRAS, PUERTO RICO

OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT

December 27, 1974

The Honorable
Henry M. Kissinger
The Secretary of State
Dorado Beach, Puerto Rico

Dear Mr. Secretary:

It is a pleasure to have you and Mrs. Kissinger in Puerto Rico and I am happy to extend to both of you a most cordial welcome. As a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs in President Kennedy's administration and as a member of the Commission on United States-Latin American Relations, I am especially delighted that you chose this particular oasis for a well deserved rest.

I regret that it was impossible for me to accompany Sol Linowitz and my other colleagues from the Commission when they called on you at the Department earlier this month. But Sol has given me a very encouraging report on the meeting and so I wish to express my deep appreciation for the friendly reception you gave to our group.

Although my duties in the Presidency of the University necessarily limit my extra-curricular activities, I am most anxious to do anything within my power to support the cause of improving inter-American relations. Therefore, please consider me at your service if I can be of any assistance at any time.

Turning from affairs of state to matters of relaxation and refreshment, and sincerely hesitating to intrude upon your privacy, I want to say that Mrs. Morales I and I would be delighted if you could be our guests for lunch or dinner while you are here. The official residence of the University is in a secluded location on the grounds

Dr. Henry M. Kissinger

of a very beautiful agricultural experiment station, hard
by a botanical garden which numbers among its attractions
one of the outstanding orchid collections of the hemisphere.
I take pleasure in sending to Mrs. Kissinger a token that
is representative of the garden.

In a similar vein I am sending a note to Vice
President and Mrs. Rockefeller.

I am confident that you would enjoy a visit here
and I assure you that it would be entirely informal.

All best wishes,

This is edward p morgan abonews washington with the shape of one man's opinion.

A LOOK at the simmering middle east after this word.

the middle east could still explode again at any moment--and may. the witch's brew of hatred and hostility can't even be safely said to have been put on a back burner. but the pot has been reduced from a boil to a simmer and that is good.

how did henry kossinger get the syrians to agree on anything? the full details escape us now and even history may not capture them all. there is some feeling that he may have gone too far in injecting a u.s. responsibility into the desperately dangerous business of trying to control terrorism.

israel wanted a formal pledge from syria not to allow palestinian guerrillas the use of syrian territory from which to launch attacks on israel. damascus, apparently, rejected this. here the secretary of state's maneuvers are clouded.

Reportedly the syrians gave some kind of pledge to him and he in turn indicated to the israelis--the dispatches say--that retaliation against terrorism would

not

not be counted as a violation of the new cease-fire.

this fragile arrangement could be explosive, but he obviously figured the risk was not too high a price to pay for the first formal accord, however tenuous, the two nations have agreed on since israel was established in 1948. and here emerges what is the unique if not magical element of his diplomatic artistry. the first Jewish secretary of state in american history was able to establish a relationship of trust with each side. it is quite possible that no other individual in the world could have pulled off such an extraordinary feat at this juncture in time--certainly no Russian, Chinese or other big power emissary and probably no committee of the United Nations, however even-handed.

so everybody can be grateful for this respite in the Middle East. already there is disengagement between Israeli and Egyptian forces in the Sinai and work

proceeds

proceeds on clearing the Suez Canal, clogged with mines and mouldering ships since the Israeli blitz of the '67 war. a settlement with Jordan won't be child's play but it has never been considered the most difficult problem.

the respite will be short-lived, however, without major surgery on the palestine problem. the figure of speech is not used carelessly. no solution can be reached on the fate of a million refugees plus countless other palestinians who consider themselves homeless, without cutting into the positions and attitudes of all the nations involved.

 syria's rejection of Israeli demands for guarantees against terrorism was both outrageous and to be expected, given the carbolic animosities that have been eating at the vitals of the middle east for so long. but syria and the other arab states can restrain the guerrillas if they will. Restraint is what is needed now and it is neither too much to ask nor expect now.

i'll have a footnote in 30 seconds.

there was a jolly to-do when Dr. Kissinger kissed Israel's Golda Meir on the cheek after the Syrian accord was reached. After all, he said, it was so why not the Jewish prime minister? better than some customs that have endured in those lands for centuries.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

This is to tell you how delighted we all are that you have accepted our invitation to be the speaker at The Business Council dinner on Friday evening, May 7, at The Homestead in Hot Springs, Virginia. Mrs. Kissinger is also invited and would be most welcome.

This will be a black tie affair attended by the members of The Business Council and their wives. Other details will be supplied to your staff by Mr. John W. Burke, Jr., Executive Secretary of The Business Council. We all look forward to having you with us on this occasion.

We also want to confirm that you do not feel your talk at The Business Council on the evening of Friday, May 7 should replace the dinner you are planning for the small group of business leaders at the State Department which is now scheduled for Wednesday, May 5. This will be similar to the evening we had with you on March 4 and thus provide another opportunity for a confidential and completely candid exchange of views on foreign policy. As I understand it from Bryce Harlow, you would like me to invite the businessmen on your behalf to this occasion just as I did last time.

May I say that, like all the others who were with you on the evening of March 4, I thought that meeting was most stimulating and worthwhile.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

Bryce Harlow and I both want to thank you again for speaking at the Business Council dinner last Friday. We felt a little apologetic about asking you to do this so soon after your trip to Africa. However, your talk was superb and I know from the many comments that I heard following it that you gave everyone there a much better understanding of your foreign policy and a much better appreciation of your many problems in carrying it out.

Mrs. Morgens and I also enjoyed meeting Mrs. Kissinger. She is very attractive and most charming.

We also want to thank you and Mrs. Kissinger for inviting us to the luncheon on Tuesday, May 18, in honor of the President of France and Mrs. d'Estaing. We have had to regret this most attractive invitation inasmuch as we are leaving tonight for Europe and will be in Turkey on May 18. Judging from the way you move around the world, I wouldn't be too surprised to run into you sometime while we are there.

Again, our thanks.

Best regards.

Thanks, too, for your assistance in

The Honorable Henry Kissinger
Secretary of State
State Department
Washington, D.C. 100--

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

On that memorable evening of the Moscow State Symphony
Concert at the Kennedy Center, on Saturday, November 22,
when you so kindly gave me your autograph at the Van Cly-
born supper in the China Room, you jocularly asked me if
I considered you to have a speech problem.

My sincere and professional reply that in fact you
presented a voice problem was not followed up with an
appropriate referral. For a thorough assessment of your
vocal production, I refer you to Dr. Paul Moore, a scholar,
a researcher and an internationally recognized authority in
voice disorders, who is presently on the staff of the Uni-
versity of Florida, at Gainsville, Florida.

His is the most penetrating analysis and treatment of
vocal mis-use and abuse about which we briefly discussed.
There is also, Dr. Frederick Brodnitz, a reknowned medical
doctor from Vienna, who still enjoys a fine reputation in
the field of voice disorders.

I urge you, as a preventative measure, to find the
time for an evaluation with either of these excellent men,
since your vocal quality lacks the clarity a young voice
should possess. This unattractive resonant quality which
I detect in all of your T.V. appearances, appears to be the
result of a restricted pitch range and an inadequate breath
flow to support optimum resonance. Today, our profession
recognizes the advantages of preventive measures in the
early treatment of vocal mis-use.
