Hello?
Mr. President, Mr. Chapin asked me to tell you that Secretary Rogers called the Attorney General, Ambassador Kennedy, and Secretary Hodgkin, and both of you are calling.
Yeah.
Well, get me Secretary Connolly first, if you will.
All right.
And I'll talk to the others in the order that they have called.
All right.
Thank you very much.
