A hectic day. Arrived at the office about 10:05 & was rushed into the press room to announce Iceland meeting Oct. 11 & 12. Geo S. had just done the announcement about Zakharov & Orlov. Already it’s plain the press is going to declare I gave in & the trade was Daniloff for Zakharov. By the end of the day the network anchors were laying into me for having given up. I addressed the annual meeting of the I.M.F. [International Monetary Fund] & World Bank members at the Sheraton. Then a meeting in the Cabinet room for members of Cong. & reps. of the oil industry.

I expressed support for a program to help in this period of real hard times for that industry. Daniloff has arrived in Wash. I’ll see him tomorrow afternoon. Zakharov is on his way to Russia. A meeting with Cap W. then some bill signings, a photo with a woman I once taught to swim at Lowell Park, also Mrs. America. Then a drop in & some Q&A with the Eagles and back to the W.H.
