Dispatched (top secret) a specialist mil. team at Italian’s request. Has to do with a possible informer regarding whereabouts of Gen. Dozier. Laid down the law to Cabinet on leaks. Had Ed M. tell press my decision to extend draft registration—that leaked before he got to the press at 4:30 P.M. to tell them. We have a drastic plan to phase a transfer over years of most of our grant programs to the states & local govts. along with a transfer of several excise taxes to fund them. It will be the biggest turn around in govt. since Wash. started usurping local & state rights. Pete Schabaraum, L.A. Co. Supervisor came by & presented me with a framed copy of my inaugural address. Met with Paul Nitze & Eugene Rostow who are here for a few days before gong back to the arms reduction talks in Geneva. I told them even 1 nuclear missile in Europe was too many and that if anyone walked away from the table it would have to be the Soviets.
