Dear Henry:

The enclosed article from the _Wall Street Journal_ of May 8 notes a challenging and exciting development in my career.

I am leaving North American Rockwell to take on the assignment of chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Monterey Life Systems, Inc. Monterey is in the broad field of health care and services. Its business presently is based primarily on nursing homes and hospitals in 16 states and in Canada. As part of its growing systems approach, Monterey also manufactures specialized surgical instruments, operates certain training and transportation services, and provides other ancillary and support services.

Monterey's address in Columbus, Ohio is 1375 S. Hamilton Road, 43227. Betty and I will be making our home in Columbus beginning May 18. We are maintaining our place in Pacific Palisades, California as well.

I look forward to seeing you on my next visit.

STATEMENT

A statement widely publicized by the Federation of American Scientists and signed by Drs. Wiesner, Panofsky, Goldberger, Scoville and York asserts that a Safeguard ABM that worked perfectly would nonetheless offer negligible protection. They suggest that a Soviet ICBM threat large enough to destroy the Minuteman force not protected by Safeguard need only grow by a small percentage to destroy the Minuteman force protected by Safeguard, that Safeguard is therefore effective "only over a very narrow band of threats." This repeats an argument made somewhat more specifically by Professor Panofsky last year and in the following statement this year:

"Let us assume that the survival of 300 Minutemen under attack would constitute an adequate retaliatory force... Without Safeguard protection the Soviets could achieve this result with 700 incoming warheads...With the expanded Safeguard now before this committee about 800 would do the job."

Professor Sidney Drell, using a chart prepared by Professor Panofsky, repeated the same numerical argument on June 29, 1970 (pp. 430, 544, Hearings, Subcommittee on Arms Control, International Law and Organization). According to the *New York Times*, this is the "principal technical argument of the ABM opposition." This "principal argument" is based on several fundamental errors.

The first -- and very gross -- error is manifest in the statement quoted above of Professor Panofsky. He assumes there that "the survival of 300 Minutemen under attack would constitute an adequate retaliatory force." Yet he also assumes that the objective of the Russian attack is to destroy only 700 out of 1000 Minuteman missiles. That is to say, _he takes as the Russian goal an attack that would leave us with an adequate retaliatory force_. It is hard to imagine a more absurd Soviet strategic aim. This absurdity, moreover, is central to the result. It vitally affects the calculations. For, as common sense would suggest, the more an attack aims to accomplish, the larger the effort the attacker must put forward. A moderately sensible Russian adversary, if he attacks at all, would aim at destroying as much of the Minuteman force as he could; he

[Lc]

-2-

would want to leave surviving no more than, say, about 50 Minutemen. In any case, he would want the remainder to be clearly "inadequate." Without the extra protection for Minuteman provided by Safeguard, 500 SS-9s, in the mid or late 1970s, with the accuracy, yield and number of MIRVs per booster projected by pre-Nixon as well as post-Nixon intelligence, could destroy all but about 50 Minutemen. Safeguard would prevent the Russians from achieving that objective with such an attack. For the attacker to assure, in the face of Safeguard, that no more than 50 Minuteman missiles survive -- his objective -- he would have to buy some 800 more re-entry vehicles than he would require to leave 300 of the protected Minuteman missiles surviving -- our objective. This 800 is 8 times as many as the number so widely circulated by the opposition to the ABM.

The opposition's estimate of 100 re-entry vehicles is wrong even at the 300 Minuteman survival level; but the main mistake is to take the 300 survivors as a rational Russian aim. For a more reasonable Russian attack objective, the Russians would need 800 extra re-entry vehicles on launchers. Based on all official estimates of Russian missile costs, such an increment would require a very large extra investment -- one that is far from negligible.

Second, supposing the Russians were to contemplate this very large resource expenditure, they would have to consider the fact that the defense could counter it at a fraction of the Soviet offense cost -- a fifth or less. Detailed supporting calculations for a related set of cases were presented in the Hearings before the Senate Armed Services Committee this past May (pp. 2402-2409). As one of the signers of this statement said in those Hearings:

> "The point of Safeguard Phase II is that it puts the United States in a position to offset any increment in the Soviet first-strike capability against Minuteman and to do this more cheaply than the Soviets can get that increment in their offense. If we clearly indicate our intention to protect Minuteman, we may discourage them from continuing to expand their offense force. We indicate that we value our second-strike capability at least as much as they value their first-strike capability. Nothing compels them to get a first-strike

[LC]

-3-

capability. The SS-9 and SS-11 are expensive; increasing their number involves a serious resource expenditure for the Russians: Perhaps worth it if we indicate we have no intention of protecting Minuteman; not worth it if we make clear we intend to protect it and can do so more cheaply than they can overcome the protection." (p. 2273)

As alternatives to protecting our second-strike force with Safeguard, various ABM critics have suggested:

(a) proliferating Minuteman missiles -- though this would increase our *first-strike* capability, and therefore, unlike the Safeguard defense of Minuteman, provoke a quantitative arms race,

(b) putting our SAC bombers on armed air alert -- though this would increase the likelihood of nuclear accidents,

(c) adopting a policy of launching all our Minuteman missiles at Russian civilians on the basis of electromagnetic indications -- thus recklessly increasing the probability not merely of a nuclear accident, but of an accidental nuclear holocaust, and

(d) waiting for some future, hopefully better, ABM for which there is as yet not even a system definition.

Their estimates of the costs, effects, and time schedules of their various alternatives have been extremely careless. For example, they have understated the unit systems costs of Minuteman by a factor of nearly 300%, and air alert costs by 400%. Their statements about the availability of alternatives neglect all realistic considerations of the time necessary to complete the system definition, obtain Congressional authorization, select the contractor and subcontractors, acquire land, complete the detailed engineering design, production release, equipment procurement, construction, installation, tests and shakedown.

Their recently repeated statement about the number of Russian re-entry vehicles required to cancel the effectiveness of Safeguard is perhaps the most far-fetched and careless of all. It assumes amazingly that the Russians in attacking our Minuteman force would take as their objective the preservation of our ability to retaliate adequately.

Dear Mr. Secretary:

I was delighted to learn that you will be visiting Miami on August 20th to speak at the American Legion Convention. I have a weekly interview program taped at WPBT, South Florida's Public Broadcasting station, and starting August 6th, aired on the PBS network. I would love to have you as my guest while you are in town.

Our conversation would be a half hour, video tape portrait of you. There will be no commercial interruptions. Some of my guests this season have been: Governor Reubin Askew, Julian Bond, Katharine Graham, Don Shula, General Daniel James, Jr.

I think it goes without saying that viewers of Public Television across the nation would take great delight in a personal view of our distinguished Secretary of State.

We will be able to bring our remote facility to you if this is more convenient. We can arrange the time of taping to suit your schedule.

I would like to get your OK as soon as possible. Your appearance would be a highly appreciated public service and will help to give Public Television a much needed boost. More importantly, I know it would make a great show.

JEANNE WOLF WITH . . .
(GENERIC)

The art of conversation receives a refreshing boost
this summer when JEANNE WOLF WITH . . . premieres on PBS.
In a series of in-depth people portraits, Ms. Wolf helps
us to rediscover how totally fascinating well-known person-
alities can be when they reveal themselves in candid discussions.

In a series of diverse interviews, Jeanne Wolf demonstrates
her ability to be equally at home with a political figure,
a movie star, a sports hero or a best-selling author. Her
disarmingly direct approach yields interviews which avoid cliches
and probe the lives of her guests. The result is a very human
series of television cameos.

Jeanne Wolf is a welcome new personality. From her home base at WPBT/Channel 2 in Miami, she has mastered the art of interviewing in a style that creates a genuine rapport with her famous guest. Her wide knowledge of subjects from sports to show business is revealed each week as she meets anyone from Don Shula to Phyllis Diller for a half-hour of conversation.

JEANNE WOLF WITH JACKIE GLEASON leads off the series in an exclusive interview with the "Great One", Tuesday, August 6th from 9:00-9:30 P.M. on PBS. Gleason discourses on everything from Nixon's role in Watergate to Marlon Brando's role in LAST TANGO IN PARIS. Along the way, under Ms. Wolf's gentle prodding, he provides some unforgettable glimpses of the man behind one of the giant show business careers.

In JEANNE WOLF WITH DON SHULA (Coach of the Miami Dolphins), to be seen Tuesday, August 13th, 9:00 P.M., Coach Shula talks about the World Football League, his family life, his personal motivations, what he's done right and which plays he'd like to run over again.

My work primarily is developing the foreign
policies of the United States and achieving
close working relationships with other coun-
tries of the world. It is not an easy task.

With regard to the flowers in the White

Dear Mr. Kissinger!

I may have to apologize for my curiosity but I would
like to know, if by any chance we are related.

I had a cousin, Frieda Kissinger, ne Lust who did live
either in Fürth or Nürnberg and am wondering if you are
related to them. She had several sisters, Emma Lust, who
died many years ago, Selma Wassermann. My mothers maiden
name was Lust as well.

We used to live in Darmstadt and came to USA end of
1936 and are living since then here in Dallas.

Do you know by chance what happened to the above ment-
ioned relatives?

Dear Mr. Kissinger:

According to my family's name, I happen to be the last of the family of Metternich of Austria. As to the constitution, when I became an American citizen, I had to lay aside all my titles and rights.

Born in Austria, I has first asked by my family to start my career as an Austrian officer, and subsequently was studying at the same time, as to the wish of my mother, at the Consular Academy in Vienna, Austria, to be employed afterward as a military attaché in any country that had an opening.

Due to the fact that the 1918 amnesty broke up the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, I went then to the University in Vienna studying state laws, and became later a specialist in economies. I reapproved also this degree at the University in Naples, Italy. To make my life more secure and profitable, I later studied at the University Chur - Lausanne, Switzerland, Hotel development.

Through my life here in the United States, I have always been known as an ardent Republican and registered as such. I am well known to certain out-standing people such as Senator Clifford Case, Senator Hugh Scott, etc., but have never had the interest to be a political party earner.

Reading a few months ago about your personal interest in my grand uncle, N. J. Metternich, and being a great scholar of his governmental theory, I thought it would be interesting to you if I could get an appointment to discuss with you in person about the ideas I have.
