Dear Bill:
enifeb Zialez Zenafe
SELECT COMMITTEE ON
PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN ACTIVITIES
(PURSUANT TO S. RES. 6, 530 CONGRESS)
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20510
July 1, 1974
I appreciate your letter of June 28 and the accompanying
staff report with security deletions. All Agency security deletions
have been complied with and your recommended language has been
substituted where appropriate.
Neither the Select Committee's decision to make this
report a part of our public record nor the contents of the report
should be viewed as any indication that either the Committee or
I have reached conclusions in this area of investigation. On the
contrary, the seventh section of the report suggests several areas
of further inquiry that we recommend be carefully undertaken by
the appropriate oversight committees or by the joint committee
for the oversight of intelligence activities, which I plan to recommend
as part of my contribution to the Committee's report.
With regard to the transcripts and ten volumes of Agency
materials, it is my desire that the Agency sanitize these materials
in order that the Committee can make a determination as to how
the materials can be used. I am sure we can reach a satisfactory
resolution of this question.
ly yours,
\Howard H, Baker, Jr.
