Dear Mr. Secretary:

Your kind and thoughtful letter of
several weeks ago relative to my retirement
from public office was greatly appreciated.
I want to formally acknowledge the same. My
delay is solely due to the volume of mail
which I received in this connection.

It has been my great pleasure to be
associated with you in a small way. As you
have provided direction for some of the Nation's
major problems I have been very proud to have been
a small participant on your team.

Dear Mr. Secretary,

Now that a month has passed and a little of the initial
shock has begun to ebb, I should like to say a few sincere words
of thanks to you for your very kind remarks on the occasion
of the tragic death of my brother Robert. The sincerity of your
feeling came through crystal clear in words well chosen and
full of kindness. Thank you, Sir, most sincerely.

I heartily second Bill Rogers' nomination of Carl Maw for membership in the Council on Foreign Relations.

I have known Carl for many years and can think of no one who could make a greater contribution to the Council. He is, as you know, a distinguished international jurist and has served superbly in the Department in several highly responsible as well as diverse positions.

His expertise in international legal affairs and government service would, I believe, add much to the Council's work.

I have the greatest respect for Carl and strongly recommend that the Council pass favorably on his nomination for membership.

Dear Henry:

Judging by the letters and comments which I have received, the Washington Conference of the Advertising Council was an immense success this year. Much of the credit goes to you and to the Department of State. Many of the letters I have received have mentioned the time you spent with the Ad Council participants.

Bob Ingersoll represented you well at the opening luncheon, and Tom Enders contributed greatly to the pannel on energy.

I know that you will be hearing from some of these individuals personally, but I wanted to add my thanks to you and to your department for the marvelous cooperation.

With every good wish.

DOCUMENT ANALYSIS

Washington, September 19, 1975

Dear Mr. Secretary,

While I was in Ottawa on Tuesday in conjunction with Secretary Schlesinger's visit to Canada, Allan MacEachen informed me that he plans to come to Washington on October 15, the day your discussions with him conclude in Ottawa. Mr. MacEachen will be travelling here especially to attend a performance at the National Theatre of the play "The Devil's Disciple" by the Shaw Festival Company from Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.

The play, which is about the American Revolution, is being presented as part of the Canada Bicentennial Festival which, as you are no doubt aware, the Canadian Government will be staging in Washington as a neighbourly tribute to the United States on the occasion of your 200th anniversary. The Festival is a truly unique and exciting event. The eleven Canadian artistic groups and individual guest artists performing from October 13 to 26 comprise the largest cultural event ever presented by another country in Washington.

Mr. MacEachen very much hopes that you and Mrs. Kissinger will be able to join him at this opening night performance and has asked me to extend an invitation to you on his behalf. Mrs. Warren and I will be offering a reception at our Residence following the play and we would of course be delighted if you and your wife could attend. The play begins at 7:30 p.m..

We do hope that you and Mrs. Kissinger will be able to be present on this occasion and help Mr. MacEachen and the Warrens to celebrate your Bicentennial.

My dear Mr. Secretary:

This will confirm our oral conversation today in
extending to you a cordial invitation to be a speaker at
the forthcoming Gridiron Club dinner on the evening of
March 22 in the Statler-Hilton Hotel.

As I indicated to you we would like to have five minutes
of your wit and wisdom. It will follow a foreign policy skit
in which you are cast in the role of the central character.
I am very happy you have accepted our invitation to speak.

This is also to confirm we should like to have Mrs.
Kissinger as our guest at the Saturday night dinner, and I
trust your office would let me know soon whether she would
be able to be present.

For your background, we will be having Vice President
Rockefeller as speaker following our Republican skit and
Democratic Chairman Robert Strauss as our speaker following
the Democratic skit. Gov. Ella Grasso of Connecticut will
respond briefly at another point in the dinner following
an entertainment skit spoofing women's lib.

President Ford will deliver brief remarks at the con-
clusion of the dinner. Mrs. Ford has accepted an invitation
to the dinner and we are hopeful also that Mrs. Rockefeller
will be able to attend.

We are looking forward very much to your participation
in the dinner.

My dear Mr. Secretary:

On the evening of Friday, September 27th, for the benefit of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Frank Sinatra will appear in concert at the Universal Amphitheatre, Universal City, California, with Gene Kelly and other world-famous artists to raise vital funds for the completion of this much needed medical complex.

I am privileged to be Chairman of this exciting event, working with Mickey Ziffren and Ted Cummings. Our aim is to raise $2,000,000.

We would be honored and delighted to have you and Mrs. Kissinger attend the performance as our guests. The concert will be attended by the most distinguished community and entertainment industry leaders in California. We are certain that your presence will add distinction and excitement to the occasion and help make this a most memorable evening. It would also add special personal joy to Lew and me and the Ziffrens, as well as all your devoted friends in California, to have you both with us.

We hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Henry,

My heartiest congratulations on another
miracle. You are the most incredibly persistent
and successful negotiator any nation has ever had.

I join with all Americans in telling you how
grateful I am to our brilliant Secretary of State.
We have followed your back-breaking trips with the
greatest interest and are thrilled about the outcome.

Nancy and I are lunching with Ambassador
Huang Chen in Washington on Wednesday, June 5th.
I hope to get Huang's agreement to let me give a
luncheon in his honor in New York to meet some of
the business community. This, I hope, would be
all right with you. If anything significant comes
up at the lunch, I'll certainly pass it on to you.

Again, my congratulations and undying
gratitude. Nancy joins me in warmest regards.

Dear Nancy:

Now that I am back in my office, I want you to know
again how terribly shocked I was at the news of Dick's
accident and death. I was in San Clemente working almost
continuously on the Cyprus crisis when I got the news and
was unable to do more than send you a brief telegram of
sympathy.

As you know so well, Dick and I worked closely to-
gether on a number of very important matters and I always
appreciated, more than I can say, his intense personal
dedication to his job and his country. I do hope, that at
this sad moment of your lives you and your children can
draw some comfort from the knowledge of his great service
to the United States and the high esteem in which he was
held by his colleagues in the Government.

Nancy joins me in extending to you and the family
our deepest sympathy.

Mrs. Arthur K. Watson,

Dear Mr. Secretary,

Just a note to tell you that I think you did a
brilliant job at Pete Peterson's lunch at the Links
Club.

I have heard several Secretaries of State
speak about their views of world affairs over the
past twenty-five years, but I am frank to say that
I have never heard anyone with your overall grasp
of the difficult problems which face the world, nor
anyone with such a logical and sensible approach to
the difficult step-by-step methods for their solution.
You combine a brilliance with a practical sense of
timing, and optimism which serves our country well.

I hear often from my sister-in-law, Nancy
Watson, of her pleasant associations with you in Paris
over the years, and I send you her best regards.

The Honorable Henry A. Kissinger
