WHEN I SAW LEWELLYN THOMPSON EARLIER THIS WEEK HE TOLD ME HE HAD
BEEN ASKED TO ACCEPT POSITION OF CHIEF USA NEGOTIATOR IN
FORTHCOMING STRATEGIC ARMS TALKS WITH USSR.THOMPSON SAID HE DECLINED
THIS INVITATION BUT AGREED TO ACT AS ADXISOR AND HAS SINCE BEEN
WORKING CLOSELY WITH SMITH OF ACDA-THOMPSON SAID HE CONSIDERED IT
IMPORTANT TO MAKE PROGRESS WITH USSR BEFORE THEY TESTED AND
DEPLOYED MIRV AND SAID IT MIGHT EVEN NOW BE TOO LATE TO ARREST
TREND TOWARDS DEPLOYMENT OF NEXT GENERATION OF MISSILES«LXKE
DOBRYNIN TO WHOM I SPOKE EARLIER THIS WEEK THOMPSON PERSONALLY
FAVOURS CONCENTRATION ON MILITARY ASPECTS.POLITICAL ASPECTS
COULD BE LEFT FOR LATER*HE TOO THOUGHT IT WOULD BE REALISTIC. FOR
USA TO BE CONTENT WITH FAIRLY INFORMAL UNDERSTANDINGS WITH USSR
ON MOST RELATED POLITICAL SUBJS
