4. Met with Mr. Gorsky, in the office of
Representative Jack Kemp (R., N. Y.), and showed him a Xerox copy
of an otherwise sanitized USSR internal passport which contained the
Russian word for Jewish on the nationality line. Gorsky appreciated
our efforts which merely confirmed the correctness of the language in
the bill which Kemp had introduced and said he would not make any
attribution to the Agency in this connection.
2SX,+~TOTHR 5. Met with Mrs. Turner, in the office of
Senator Edward Gurney (R. , Fla. ), on the 2 August 1971 letter from
STATOTHR of the "Birmingham flyers. " I told Mrs. Turner that I did not think any
response would satisfy I and that I was not sure if another
reply from the Senator was necessary, but that as a service to the
Senator we had drafted a suggested reply which referred to President
Kennedy's press conference on the subject on 6 March 1963. Mrs. Turner
was very understanding and appreciative of our further help and said
STATOTHR she felt this would be the last letter that they would be sending

concerning the payment of Federal benefits to the dependents
6. Met with Mike,Rus snow, in
Senator Alan Cranston's (D. , Calif. ) office, and gave him a suggested
reply for use in answering a constituent who is highly critical. of Agency
activities. Rus snow himself was not too familiar with the fact of the
Agency's accountability within the Government and he showed some interest
in bills that have been introduced concerning the Agency, although he was
not too familiar with them, either.

Armed Services Committee staff, and we discussed problems arising from
the possible upcoming Senate executive session on Laos. See Memorandum
