TO: GENERAL SCOWCROFT
FROM: THE SECRETARY
1, IF THE PRESIDENT IS INDEED PLANNING THE TRIPS WHICH
ZIEGLER HAS TALKED ABOUT, I BELIEVE IT IS IMPERATIVE THAI
THE MOSCOW TRIP BE DELAYED BY THREE DAYS. MOREOVER.,
IF IT IS TO BE DELAYEDs IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE DELAY BE
ARRANGED WITH THE SOVIETS BEFORE THE MIDDLE EAST TRIP
IS SCHEDULED, SINCE, THOUGH WE CAN ASK MANY THINGS
OF THE SOVIETS, WE CANNOT ASK THEM TO DELAY THE
PRESIDENTIAL TRIP TO THE SOVIET UNION IN ORDER THAT THE,
PRESIDENT CAN VISIT THE MIDDLE EAST.
2. THEREFORE, I THINK YOU SHOULD EXPLORE A THREE DAY
DELAY NOW WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF BEING ABLE TO MAKE AN
ANNOUNCEMENT FIRMING THE TRIP Up FOR JUNE 27TH.
3, WARM REGARDS.
