On 20 January, Ed Hullander of CIEP called
me and turned on a very substantial amount of
"heat". His request was a repeat of the requests
we have received from Treasury and CIEP from time
to time over the past 2 years -- an "objective"
analysis of how all of the LOS players stand and
are likely to vote on all of the major issues.
Such requests are impractical to fulfill. In the
past, I've been able to turn them aside by various
devices, but this time Hullander became quite
demanding.
The attached Working Paper is the result.
I don't think it will fully satisfy him, but it
does attempt to cope with a negotiated understand-
ing of his needs. In subsequent telephone
conversations the atmospherics have been calmer.
The D/LOS people have had an opportunity to
comment on the Working Paper and I have sent
John Moore 10 copies for whatever use he may care
to make of them.
Treasury and CIEP are in the proce s
of launching another "counteroffensiv "
against the LOS instructions, and the
are still seeking to "use, ul to th t
