Woke up to a breakfast of Juice, Fruit, Poached egg on toast, Bacon & toast & honey. I feel 1000% better. Good meetings with Don R.—Bud M. & then George S. joined us to report on his literally round the world trip. He says our Assean [A.S.E.A.N.] allies are much more aware of the Soviet threat than they were a short time ago. Our relationship with Australia is solid as a rock. The 2nd term of the arms talks in Geneva has ended with little or nothing to show for it.

Nancy arrived bringing joy as always plus an announcement that I’m going home tomorrow. Had soup & a hamburger for lunch. Slept most of the afternoon.
