1:08:00
Les call it a night.
1:08:04
We've had it till Khrushchev replies.
1:08:09
Don't despair.
1:08:12
Mr. President,
we'll be fighting in Cuba by Tuesday.
1:08:19
I think it could go either way now.
1:08:29
The Atomic Energy Commission
announced today
1:08:30
a successful nuclear test explosion
1:08:32
near Jungston Island in the Pacific.
1:08:36
The Soviet Union today tested
an intermediate-range
1:08:40
atomic device as part of
the continuing Soviet experiments
1:08:44
in the Naviazemblia area.
1:08:55
Johnny, you know what Khrushchev did
1:08:58
at 8:00 o'clock tonight Moscow time?
1:09:00
No idea, Dave.
1:09:02
Well, according to TASS,
1:09:03
he took the Presidium
with him to the opera.
1:09:05
Is an old Soviet custom
to go to the Bolshoy
1:09:07
when things get hot in the Kremlin.
1:09:10
They did it the night
they eliminated Beria.
1:09:12
Well, I suggest we establish
a White House custom.
1:09:15
How do you feel about Audrey Hepburn?

Is over.
1:09:33
Not yet, Dave.

1:09:43
All of it?
1:09:44
Yes, sir.
1:09:45
Thank you, Kenny.
1:09:48
Dear Mr. President:
1:09:52
Our regard with great understanding
your concern
1:09:54
and the concern of the people of
the United States
1:09:56
that the weapons you describe
as offensive
1:09:59
are formidable weapons, indeed.
