Oh, Mr. President?
Yes, sir.
I've got three bills and an action paper.
Let's just leave them over there.
I'll come over and sign them tomorrow.
Do you have to be signed tonight?
Well, Henry's anxious for the action paper tonight.
What is it on?
It just has to do with converting some extra funds to the Israelis, and the State Department believes we should do it.
It's in the amount of $50 million.
All right.
All right.
Let it go.
Can I get your opinion on that?
Yeah, that's okay.
The bills we can do in the morning.
That's fine.
The action paper's irrelevant.
Right, just because at the end of the fiscal year they were excited.
George Schultz claims he needs 30 seconds on the telephone with you.
I can't call him tonight.
Okay, sir.
All right, and one more thing.
