Went over to the E.O.B. to meet with the Nat. Security Telecommunications Advisory Committee. It’s made up of representatives from at least 30 companies and does an invaluable job. Then a couple of hours in the Family Theatre rehearsing for Wed’s. Press Conf. Nancy is out to dinner tonight getting an award for her work on drugs. This afternoon Bill Smith came in to tell me he’d stay on as Attorney Gen. until this whole mess with Ed M. is cleared up & we can go on. This solves a real problem for us.
