Hello.
Mr. Sigler.
Ron.
Yes, sir.
I just wanted you to be totally sure, and I'll also call Haldeman to be sure that he picked you up, that my order on Schechter and all, and Seide, and all the bastards at Time is totally understood and totally enforced.
For four years I am in office under no circumstances, whatever, that he called to be returned to Time magazine.
that everything had anybody to see them.
Is that totally, absolutely understood and clear?
Yes, sir.
I made the call yesterday.
