Dear Trammell,

I certainly enjoyed the luncheon and the opportunity of meeting Dr. Kissinger at your home last week. He presents a type of character and strong personality that is among the finest I know. I only wish the American people could fully realize how much this man has done for our country.

Thank you for including me, it was a very interesting and delightful day.

Dear Mr. Crow,

I am grateful for the opportunity to hear Dr. Kissinger's frank
observations. The entire experience was unique; starting with
your gracious hospitality and fine home to the guest of honor's
revelations.

You and Mr. Cox were kind to include me in the group of guests.
I feel as if I am one of a fortunate few who have heard the Secretary
at his most candid.

Please give my best to Mrs. Crow.

Dear Trammell:

First let me thank you again for the very delightful luncheon for the privilege of visiting with you and Secretary of State Kissinger. Confidence is increased appreciably by having the Secretary put as many things in perspective as he was willing to do during his address.

Otherwise this note is to remind you of our conversation and to renew my request that you make an appointment with Mr. Charles Landphere to see our guest management system for hotel use. Preferably, if the appointment could be made either on a Monday or a Friday, it would be helpful from our viewpoint.

My understanding is that you want to join with Mr. Landphere in seeing the system in which case I would like also to be present if feasible. However, in any event I would like Mr. Pete Russey, vice president, and probably Mr. John Jenkins, president, of HCI both of whom are very knowledgable to be present. It's possible they might like an expert or two from their staff either in accounting or hotel management also to be there.

I assume you will give me a ring when you have had time to confirm dates of availability for you and Mr. Landphere.

Dear Trammell and Ed:

I am very grateful to both of you for the oppor-
tunity to meet Secretary of State Kissinger and to
enjoy luncheon under such nice circumstances.

I have attended a reasonable number of so-called
"off the record" meetings, but this was the best I
have ever experienced. I was truly interested in
Dr. Kissinger's remarks, and I was impressed with
his visible candor. So often public officials feed
even a small group doses of pablum, but this was
not my impression yesterday. To a degree it restores
my faith in some facets of our federal government to
see that people of his and Bill Clements' integrity
and intellect are representing this nation.

It was an exceptionally nice event, and I thank you
both for inviting me.
