Remarks to the Press Announcing Receipt of a Message From Hanoi

April 08, 1968

Tonight I will be going to Camp David, at the conclusion of the day, with certain staff members.

Tomorrow morning, I will have breakfast there with Ambassador Bunker, Secretary Rusk, and Secretary Clifford.

Ambassador Bunker will arrive at Andrews in the early morning, somewhere around 7 o'clock. He will pick up the two Secretaries and come on to Camp David for a meeting there tomorrow.

I have a message from Hanoi replying to our message of April 3d. We have taken steps to notify our allies.

We shall be trying to work out promptly a time and place for talks.

Any other announcements will have to come from Mr. Christian, if there is anything else to announce.

Note: The President spoke at 1:36 p.m. in the Cabinet Room at the White House. During his remarks he referred to Ellsworth Bunker, U.S. Ambassador to the Republic of Vietnam, Secretary of State Dean Rusk, Secretary of Defense Clark M. Clifford, and George E. Christian, Special Assistant to the President.
