Dear General Latham:
This is to confirm arrangements for CIA Deputy Director Robert M. Gates to
address the Dallas Council on World Affairs on Tuesday, January 27, 1987, in
Dallas, Texas.
The reception is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. and his speech titled "War by
Another Name: The Growing Threat to the U.S. From Insurgencies, the Narcotics
Industry, and Increasing Interaction Between Purveyors of Each" at 6:00 p.m.
The proposed format is 30 minutes of remarks and 30 minutes of Questions and
Answers. As we have discussed, the print media will be invited, but we
request that you not allow TV or radio coverage during his appearance.
According to our agreement, you will not put out a press release and the
Deputy Director does not grant press interviews. As we understand, you have
customarily invited foreign nationals to your open meetings. However, neither
Soviet nor Eastern Bloc citizens will be present. We ask that you tape his
remarks for our historical files. If you plan to publish the Deputy Director's
remarks, please give us the opportunity to review the material prior to
publication.
A private off-the-record dinner meeting following the presentation is
planned at approximately 7:30 p.m. Also as we agreed, members of the media
and foreign nationals will not be included in this group. The proposed format
for the dinner meeting is 5 to 10 minutes of remarks followed by discussion.
I would appreciate at least a tentative list of attendees.
As soon as it is convenient, I would appreciate knowing who will introduce
Dr. Gates at both events. Short biographies of those people with whom he will
be meeting would be most helpful. I also request that a podium and mike be
available for both addresses.
