Rome, July 4th. 1974

Dear Henry :

I am very sorry indeed not to be in Rome when
you will be there, I understand the Fifth of July.

I should have been very pleased to see you or
at least to tell you hello. Unfortunately I have to leave for
Paris right after the reception given by John Volpe for
Independence Day.

Let me tell you how much I have admired your
courageous efforts and successes in Middle East. I am also
pleased to note that our differences on the text of the
Atlantic Declaration are now things of the past.

Hoping to see you in the near future, please
convey my best regards to Mrs. Kissinger and believe me,

The Honorable
Henry KISSINGER

Dear Joseph:

I want you to know how much I appreciate
all you did to ensure that this important
Ministerial meeting would be so useful. I
know how much work is required to make an
event this complex run smoothly, and I think
you and your staff did a splendid job.

It was good to see you once again.

Dear Joe:

Let me thank you once again for
presiding over the Council with a skill
and humor that remains the envy of your
friends, and adds immeasurably to the useful-
ness and success of these Ministerial sessions.
I also want to express my sincere appreciation
for the two luncheons you gave, and for your
very kind and generous remarks on my behalf.

Your friendship has meant a great deal
to me and I trust that the future will not
deprive me of many more opportunities to enjoy
both your wit and the wisdom of your views.

His Excellency
Joseph M.A.H. Luns,
Secretary General,

Dr. Henry Kissinger
Secretary of State
Washington, D.C.

Dear Dr. Kissinger:

It gives me great pleasure in presenting to you my latest
book, "Nixon Rated Cartoons," published by the New York Times
Book Company--in which you are, naturally, part of the con-
tents. I hope that you will forgive the profession of
caricaturism if some of the lines of this book do not appeal
to you. If by any chance you do feel this way, may I
recommend comparing your caricature not with one of your
better photographs, but with the noses and ears of other
distinguished leaders of society and nations in the book.
The odds are that you will find yourself--comparatively
speaking--in excellent shape.

This will also be a good opportunity to ask you for some
of your most recent photographs that may serve as a base
for many more cartoons and caricatures in which your
image will appear.

I would also love to hear from your personally about your
impressions of this book--in the most sincere and direct
way, so characteristic of your personality.
