Dear Mr. Feeney:

I have talked with you several times about getting one of my photographs signed by Secretary Kissinger personally. I understand your busy schedule and your necessary delay in responding with a positive yes or no. I have decided to send the picture on anyway, in the hope that the Secretary will be able to autograph it at his earliest convenience. Please have Dr. Kissinger sign the photo with the words "to Chip" on it somewhere, along with his signature.

So that you don't feel pressed for time, I am giving you my school address and you can mail the photograph back to me there. I sincerely hope that you will be able to do this favor for me- it means a lot. Thank you for your assistance. I hope you are not do not work too hard in the days to come.

Dear Henry,

May I be among the last to congratulate you upon
your marriage and to wish you all good fortune? Every
ship needs a strong captain; I'm glad that you've finally
found one.

I've just returned from Vietnam, which I found
holding up better than even the most optimistic might
have predicted a year ago.

I hope to be in Washington the week of April 29th,
after a lecture tour of the hinterlands. I do hope that
you will not be on your travels and that we will have a
chance to talk. I shall call to try to fix an appointment.

Again, all my best wishes,

Dear Henry,

I have just read your address to the ASNE. It has moved
me to write immediately, as I had planned to write in time.
I wasn't even put off from the substance by the purposelessness of
quoting Stu, Walter, and H. L. Menchen to semi-literate editors.
Perhaps your research people could find you a live one next time.

More to the point, may I, without presumption, say that I
have never had higher regard for your courage, your perspicacity,
and, by no means least, your command of the language than I do
at this moment of great adversity. Knowing how you have been
harried and circumscribed, I am, further, deeply impressed by
your constancy.

I write primarily to express my continuing admiration--in
the hope that it may have some slight meaning to you. But,
perhaps, I should add an obvious corollary.

Sometimes the imperatives of my position may distort in
outward appearance my whole-hearted admiration for your
endeavors and your insights--just as the imperatives of your
position, on a scale greater by many magnitudes, may sometimes
press you in ways you do not necessarily wish.

I look forward to resuming our occasional discussions and
hope that they will continue for many years to come.

With warmest wishes,

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

A warm and hearty congratulations on your appointment as Secretary of State. Your brilliant achievements in promoting World Peace and a friendly open door to China and Russia have been magnificent.

In the past, we have tried several times to arrange for a meeting with President Nixon to tell him about our phenomenal success in promoting the concepts of World Citizenship through a strong effective U.N. The entire congressional delegation from Minnesota has supported such a meeting.

I have now been persuaded to try and arrange a meeting with you wherever and whenever possible.

Since my last contact with the White House through Bill Frenzel, these are a few of the significant achievements of our project:

1. Many additional cities throughout the U.S. have used our Minnesota Declaration of World Citizenship as a guide for one of their own.

2. U.N. backers in Pennsylvania and Iowa feel confident that there will be State Declarations by January 1, 1974.

3. Because of the national U.N.A.-U.S.A. support for our project, we have had many requests for material and help.

4. The school officials of Minneapolis, Mounds View, Hopkins, and Robbinsdale have started the development

Subject: United Nations Week, October 22-26, 1973

In cooperation with the United Nations Association of
Minnesota, we sincerely urge you to help us celebrate UN Week to
make it a memorable event.

Specifically, there are some things you can do which will
help us in this project:

1. Appoint a UN Week Chairman, and let the UNA office know who the person is.

2. Fly the UN flag the entire week, with simultaneous "raising" 9:00 A.M. Monday, October 22. As you will note in the enclosed declaration of World Citizenship, we fly the UN flag at the Capitol every day.

3. Arrange for programs and speakers on the subject of the United Nations. One program idea - show the John Denver movie, "Man's Next Giant Leap - World Peace through World Citizenship."

4. Using the Declaration as a guide, adopt or endorse this declaration at your local level.

5. Attend the UN Rally on UN Day, Wednesday Noon, October 24 at the Leamington Hotel, Minneapolis.

Should you have any questions concerning my suggestions or
wish further information as to how best to promote UN Week, please

New York, N. Y.

The Editor of Newsweek presents his compliments to The Secretary of State of the United States and has the honour to propose a formal signing ceremony on the Treaty embodying the Final Draft of the Interview between the Secretary and the Editors of Newsweek.

For its part, Newsweek proposes that the signing take place at the Newsweek building at 5 p.m., Saturday, December 21, 1974 (and in the independence of the United States, the 198th year), but Newsweek would also be happy to entertain suggestions of a neutral site if the Secretary prefers. The document will be written in the languages of both parties, each text to be original and official.

The Editor of Newsweek is pleased to inform the Secretary that he, the Editor, has been invested by his Government with Powers Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary in signing the Articles of Agreement, and he has every confidence that the Secretary is similarly empowered.

Dear Professor Elliott:

Secretary Kissinger enjoyed your letter very much and has asked me to respond on his behalf. I know there must have been numerous occasions during the past eight years when he wished he were enjoying the Eden you describe, but I am not sure what his thoughts are on returning to academia. In truth, until the elections were over he did not feel it was proper to give any attention to what he might do when he left office, so his plans at this time are in a very formative stage.

I know that he was very pleased to receive the news of your parents and by your kind assessment of his contribution to the country and the world.

With the Secretary's warmest personal regards,

Dear Henry:

This is an invitation for you to put Claremont into your retirement alternatives file, preferably at the top. Our administration holds you in high esteem and would go after you in a minute, only they are too bashful to say so directly. But I am not. Claremont offers you a quiet corner to write your memoirs, a safe distance from the importunities of the Eastern Establishment, a decent library, beautiful mountains, beaches, and deserts, nice people, non-raucous students, low crime rates, and fresh oranges in your back yard in the dead of winter. Here we are still possessors of the fifties, but also of the eighties, since California is always into things before anyone else. We offer an in on the Sunbelt, the one world you have not yet conquered, an almost annual visit from Lady Joyce Teitz-Wood, Cantab., and easy access by road to the Richard Nixons. Several of the Nixon team have already associated themselves with other California institutions, mostly penal. And, of course, if the CIA is right that we are headed for another ice age, Claremont is the place to be. If any or all of these are of any interest to you, please let me know. We would love to have you here.

I get to see my parents once or twice a year now. My father is confined to his room at the farm and has lost most of his faculties, but not his jollity and pugnacity. He still roars our choruses from the <u>Beggar's Opera</u> and would roar about many of your foreign policy departures if he could focus on them. My mother looks after him devotedly, though I worry that she is more hampered by her blood pressure than she admits.

The other year I congratulated you on becoming Secretary of State. I don't think it is too early to congratulate you now for having brought us through an extraordinarily volatile and dangerous period without running aground. You have generally managed to play a good game with bad cards and turned more than one hopeless-looking situation to our advantage. I suspect that you may have forestalled a war or two, a Russian-Chinese one, and a reprise of the Yom Kippur War, not a bad record for a practicing revisionist. I look forward to reading your memoirs and want you to know that you would be most welcome to write them in Claremont.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

As you can imagine, we have been following very closely the efforts which the United States and you personally have been making since last March to reduce tensions in the Middle East. The results achieved by you are remarkable and in the name of the Belgian Government I congratulate you most heartily. Thanks to you and the commitments undertaken by the United States, the period now beginning should make it possible to focus on the basic problems leading to the establishment of peace.

I feel sure that without today's agreement the chance for true peace would have receded into the very uncertain and distant future.

Regarding my conversation with Mrs. Kissinger and your conversation

1. Laszlo Szedelyi ... a personally autographed photograph would be sufficient.

2. Ambrose Gumbs ... a personally autographed photograph would be ample. However Mrs. Kissinger mentioned she would also like to leave some money. I would recommend $5.00 a day.

Mr. Nelson Rockefeller personally plans to pay for your vacation at Caneel Bay. Included in this is a 12% gratuity which should adequately take care of all service personnel.

Our very dear friend and associate, Bill Knox, has once
again asked that his Annual Pre-Christmas Luncheon party
scheduled for December 14, 1973 be postponed. Our regrets
are understandably difficult to express.

What good times we have had together at the luncheon in
past years. For the time being, all we can do is reminisce.

Hope we haven't upset your schedule. Ken joins me in sending warmest personal regards.

Dear Nancy & Henry:

Long before you see the flicker or hear the crackle of flame
consuming your home, you could be dead of smoke inhalation.
(Two short gasps can put enough smoke in your lungs to kill you.)
We lead the industrialized countries of the world
in per capita deaths due to fire.
Most of these heartbreaking fatalities occur in homes
where insidious fumes and carbon monoxide gases fill the lungs
of sleeping families without warning.

I'm sending you this smoke and fire detection device,
(the newest battery unit manufactured),
because I don't ever want you or your family to go through
the nightmare of death by fire.
I hope you will accept this in the spirit of friendship
that motivates me to send it.

Install it immediately in the hallway leading to your bedrooms.
At the first wisp of smoke, its alarm will blast,
giving you time to survive.
It's simple to install, but if you have any difficulty,
call my office and we will be glad to assist you.

I am devoting a lot of my time these days to this crusade.
Indeed, if you'd like to make out a list of those nearest you
whom you would like to protect, just fill in the enclosed form
and mail it to me.
I'll be glad to have my office write to the recipient of your
gift advising them that you are the sender.

Please install _your_ alarm today. Within the hour.
And sleep well.

Dear Mr. Secretary,

Ruth and I were on holiday in St. Maarten when
you spoke in Boston. We heard you over Voice of Amer-
ica.

Excellent.

You said what needed to be said and, as always,
you said it with style.

I was reminded recently of your address in San
Francisco and the following day in Laramie.

I'm distressed at what's happening on the na-
tional scene. Disagreement is not a privilege. It is
an inherent right. Debate is one of our American free-
doms. But carping and chipping away are not construc-
tive and personality skirmishes are not worthy of be-
coming an issue.

There is no question we may be "scarred by self
doubt." It is a disturbing thought.

When your schedule permits, perhaps we can talk
about this in an Interview for the very large (many
millions) audience which our Radio Stations enjoy through-
out the nation.

Incidentally, during the Artur Rubinstein reception
in the State Dining Room at the White House, I used "undip-
lomatic" language in referring to recent events embroiling
you. Since it was intended for your ear alone, I still
think my earthy choice of words was very accurate.

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

I would like to add my sincere congratulations to the
many you have received on your appointment by the Presi-
dent as Secretary of State.

When I went to San Clemente in September 1970 to meet
John Ehrlichman in anticipation of my joining the Domestic
Council staff, you were the first person that John intro-
duced to me and my wife -- an occasion which we both
fondly recall.

Unfortunately, since you did not consult me on international
affairs and since I did not consult you on domestic affairs,
our paths never crossed at the White House except for
purposes of nodding passingly in the hallways.

Nonetheless, I have always greatly admired your skills
and have appreciated your ever-present sense of humor.
I have considered it an honor and a privilege to have been
a member of the White House staff during your own service
there.

I will be leaving government service on October 1, 1973.
To commemorate both my entrance into government and my
exit therefrom, it would be most fitting and very much
appreciated if I might have an autographed photograph of
you as a momento of our mutual service on the White House
staff.

Just a note to tell you how grateful we all
were to receive your very kind telegram about
my father. You would have loved the old boy,
Henry, and he always wanted to know the latest
word from me about you. Many thanks.

Sincerely yours,

Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kissinger
Secretary's Office
Department of State

BONNIE ANDREWS:

This request for signature
on two magazine covers has
been handled and sent out.
The correspondence should
probably be kept in State
Dept files, and I would appreciate
it if you would direct it to the
proper filing office at State.

Thanks.

Dear Sir,

I am an Inspector in the Royal Hong Kong Police,
and as one of my hobbies is the collection of signed
pictures and photographs of famous people, I should be
grateful if you would autograph the enclosed TIME
magazine cover. I already have the signed covers of
your two predecessors in office, Messrs Rusk and Rogers,
and would be honoured to add your signature to my
collection.

You will not recall but I had the honour to meet
you very briefly during your first visit to China through
Hong Kong.
