 Mrs. Johnson is calling asking if she could speak to the president for a moment concerning his press conference. Listen for about one minute to my critique or would you rather wait till the night? Yes ma'am. What on earth? I thought that you looked strong, firm and like a reliable guy. You looked splendid. The close-ups were much better than the distance ones. Well, you can't get them to do it this time. Well, I would say that they were more close-ups than they were distance ones. During the statement you were a little breathless and there was too much looking down and I think it was a little too fast. Not enough change of pace. A drop in voice at the end of the sentence. A considerable pickup in drama and interest when the questioning began. Your voice was noticeably better and your facial expression was noticeably better. The mechanics of the room were not too good because although I heard you well throughout every bit of it, I did not hear your questioners clearly. Well, the questioners won't talk. Some of them you could hear and but in general you could not hear them very well. You need a good, crisp answer for change of pace and therefore I was very glad when you answered one man The answer is no to both of your questions. I thought your answer on live was good. I thought your answer on Vietnam was good. I really didn't like the answer on the go because I think I've heard you say and I believe you actually have said out loud that you don't leave your Ottawa country this year. So I don't think you can very well say that you meet him anytime that's convenient for both people. One weekend when it can be arranged, I'm not going out of this country. I didn't say where I'd go. I didn't say I'd go out of the country at all. No, I guess. Press has a real firm but I wouldn't go. I see. Well then I just didn't get the meaning of it that everybody else did. I think the outstanding things was that the close-ups were excellent. You need to learn when you're going to have a prepared text. You need to have the opportunity to study it a little bit more and to read it with a little more conviction and interest and change of pace. Well the trouble is that they criticize you for taking so much time. They won't use it all for questions. Then their questions don't produce any news. They don't give news. They catch help. My problem was trying to get through before 10 minutes. I still ran 10 minutes today. And I took the third up. This was the questions I could have taken if I'd have read it like I wanted to. 15 minutes. But I didn't know what to cut out. Maybe I ought to cut out Mary's heart and name. But I felt that every place one of those names brought, they'd call up the fellow and ask him about it. He'd get his name in the paper and it'd publicize it good and it'd help the committee. I believe if I had that choice I would have said use 13 minutes or 14 for the statement. In general, I'd say it was a good B plus. How do you feel about it? I thought it was much better than last week. Well, I heard last week see and didn't see it and didn't hear all of it. And at any rate, I felt sort of on safe ground. I mean, like you had sort of gotten over a hump psychologically and in other ways, it'll be interesting to hear everybody else's reaction. And we've got, I've got, with the thawing bears anyhow, are waiting reasonably early dinner with us. And I got my clinic-like date and you doing what you want to about getting another couple of 2Ds with us. And let me know and I love you very much. Okay, bye. Bye.
