mutual concern regarding the review of classified Military History Center holdings
(1.1/aft+) From the Archives: DCI George Bush "Vents Frustration" at Washington Newspaper in 1976
(UHATOLI) "CIA Goal: Drug, Not Kill, Anderson" was a headline in the 9 June 1976 Washington Star ,but the text
of the article did not mention the Agency per se, referring only to "a former CIA physician, " and to "Watergate
conspirator and former CIA agent E. Howard Hunt," who had allegedly discussed a plan with Presidential Counselor
Charles Colson to drug columnist Jack Anderson to discredit him. According to the article, "Colson did not go along
with Hunt's version," and noted that he "recalled 'Hunt on a couple of occasions coming to me with some
hair-brained (sic) schemes.'" DCI George Bush took exception to the article and sent a handwritten note to the
Washington Star publisher the same day the article appeared:
"Dear Joe, Darn it - I hate to bitch but this headline just doesn't seem fair. The story points out Hunt was a
former CIA hand, but the headline is a little rough - amend that please - just darned untrue - sorry but I just had
to vent my frustration."
In reply, Washington Star publisher Joe Allbritton replied that he had passed the DCI's comments to his editor "who
states that the headline is poor and overdone. I agree with him. I can only apologize to you and say we will redouble
our efforts to watch our headline writing. PS: Always call these things to my attention. It may not always correct
past errors, but it will help us do better as time goes on."

(Di/A*3Q) Attorney Wants Records on Aviation Development Corporation
(Ull1tri8) Last week, a Michigan based attorney asked for "all contracts, agreements, side letters, letter contracts,
amendments and other agreements of any kind between the agency and Aviation Development Corporation." The
requester agreed to pay fees up to $100.
� The FOIA case manager responded to the requester with a "split Glomar," which means the CIA refuses
to confirm or deny the existence of records relating to any covert or classified connection, but conduct a
search for records of any overt relationship. I

(Ullitt150) New Yorker Seeks Records on "Red Scare" Individual
(U/A1117 A New York requester asked for records concerning Milton Rogovin of Buffalo, New York, who was
involved in Buffalo's "Red Scare," an alleged internal threat to the security of the United States.
� The FOIA case manager advised the requester that his request will be held in abeyance for 45 days until
he provides sufficient biographic information on Mr Rogovin to conduct a search. The case manager
also advised the requester of the foreign intelligence mission of the CIA and suggested that he also contact
the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
This is a record.
