In their formal toasts Thursday night at a state dinner given the visiting presidents by President Kristjan Eldjani of Iceland, Pompidou emphasized European unity. Both, however, spoke of the relationimportance of ships. Finally, the two nations seemed to disagree with the potential timing of a European summit. Asked, whether one could be held in October or November when Nixon visits Europe, as the Americans had hoped, Kissinger replied: I think there is a possibility, but wouldnt want to tie ourselves to it. But Cushman said that last December he was told by William Colby, recently nominated to become CIA director, to prepare a memorandum for tiie chief Watergate prosecutor, Earl J. Silbert. describing any contacts with Hunt. Cushman said Colby told him to send the memo to at the White House for approval than send it directly to Silbert. Franco-America- Fhr-lithm- Request Help Cushman said his draft memo stated that Ehrlichman bad made the call requesting help for Hunt. After Ehrlichman read the draft, Cushman said, he called to say it was wrong, that Ehrhchman was out of town at the time. Cushman said he had not seen the CIA minutes then and was unsure of his memo-rso he tore up his draft and wrote a new memo saying ho did not remember who had called about Hunt. n French officials, the other hand, said that they saw no possibility for an earty meeting, which could involve as many as 15 nations. French Coming Around The struggle between the two modes of procedure the general Vs. The specific has been foreseen before Nixon left Washington. It contmued through late Thursday night, when Kissinger and Jobert held an announced meeting to set an agenda. On Nixons plane Wednesday, American officials had said that the French y, , were coming around to the American view. Subsequently, a French official ridiculed the comment, remarking that the Americans are standing pat obstinately. And after the Kissinger-Jober- t talk, another member of the French delegation termed the American officials assessment gratuitous." Thus, the presidential conferences began in an atmosphere of some controversy. Nonetheless, Kissinger said, The two presidents talked in a spirit of allies and of men. who have been meeting for a long time." Both sides apparently yielded a bit, although Nixon gained no concessions large enough to distract domestic attention from the Watergate case. In fact, Kissinger conceded, after having referred several times to progress here, that it would be necessary to wait some Commissions Wait Cadets at U. of U. months to determine whether the basic objectives (of the two countries) will emerge identical or different. We have never said that we knew now what the common objective was. he added. We have said there is a need to attempt to define it and establish a method of it." (Copyright) S.L.
