TO: LARRY EAGLEBURGER
FROM: GENERAL SCOWCROFT
1. RESPONDING AS ALWAYS TO YOUR COMMAND (HAK TO 17) I TALKED
TO GALBRAITH ABOUT SOMEONE FOR THE CASEY JOB. HIS STRONG RECOMMEND-
ATION IS WERNER BLUMENTHAL, PRESIDENT OF BENDIX INTERNATIONAL.
GALBRAITH SPEAKS VERY HIGHLY OF HIM, SAYS HE IS A "DOER" AND WOULD BE
AU COURANT RATHER THAN HAVING TO LEARN THE JOB FROM SCRATCH. HE WAS
THE PRINCIPAL NEGOTIATOR OF THE KENNEDY ROUND. GALBRAITH SAYS HE
WILL BE WRITING HAK A NOTE ABOUT BLUMETHAL, BUT THOUGHT HE WOULD LET
sp U KNOW. PRINCIPAL PROBLEM WOULD BE TRYING TO GET HIM.
2. HAVE ALSO TALKED TO RITA HAUSER AND SENATOR JAVITS AND
STRAIGHTENED OUT THE KLUTZNIK/GOLDMAN MESS. (MAX TO 19)
WARM REGARDS.
