Yeah.
Yes, sir.
Steve, I wondered if you could find out how many are coming to that city.
I don't know what it is right offhand, Mr. President, but I can find out.
If you could, you've got enough of those compacts.
Provided there aren't more than about two dozen.
That's all there are.
They're only about...
What could you give them?
Well, the men, we have some key chains.
A value of about $4.50.
The gift you gave the Baron this morning for that money clip, that is about $9.50.
So the comparable gifts would be the contact and the key chain.
It's like the inexpensive one that we give out, except it's of good quality.
It's a gold film type thing, and the presidential seal is much better.
It's made by Bell.
It would be a good gift.
It comes nicely boxed.
Of course, they don't need appropriately wrapped.
Yes, sir.
Well, I'll just have them over there, and then Colonel Coffey is the aide tonight.
Just one thing, sir.
We're assuming that you want to depart at 7.30 tonight, and that we'll be departing from the north portico, because they'll be doing some taping up there.
All right, thank you, sir.
