1. (Secret - JMM) Talked to 'Bill Woodruff, Counsel, Senate
Appropriations Committee, who said he had not been in touch with
Senator Russell yet regarding the possible early meeting between the
Senator and the Director. I told Woodruff the Director would like to
get this firmed up as soon as possible one way or another, and would
prefer Thursday, 29 October, if possible. Woodruff said he would
try to contact the Senator this afternoon but was doubtful he could
succeed in talking to him before tomorrow.
2. (Confidential - JMM) Called Carl Marcy, Chief of Staff,
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, in response to Chairman Fulbright's
21 October letter to the Director requesting a copy of the paper on
Communist infiltration in the South Vietnamese government described
by Neil Sheehan in the New York Times. I told Marcy that the paper in
question was out of date, was not an agreed estimate, and was but one
input of a continuing NSC examination of this subject. I said in view of
all this we could not provide a copy. Marcy said he realized this probably
would be the case, but the Committee felt it should try to keep as well
informed as possible on this subject. He said it would be appreciated if
we could write a letter containing the above points and offering to discuss
the general subject personally with the Chairman if the Chairman so
desired. He said the Chairman might not take us up on this, but he thought
it important to ensure that the 'lines of communication'' between the Committee
and the Agency be kept open. I said we would see what we could do.
Marcy said he had the impression the article was fairly accurate
and would like to know for his own background whether this was so. I said
it was accurate in some respects but misleading in that it ignored a number
of caveats and gave a somewhat exaggerated impression of the problem.

return.

been advised that if they want to meet with the Senator it will have to be
after his return from his European trip, late November, or the meeting
can be arranged at any time with the head of the Vietnam Division, AID.
Mr. Cohen told me as an aside that the student representative (who was not

He said if any of the members should ask him about it he was going to tell

of military bases in the southern U. S. from Monday, 26 October, until

1. (Secret - JMM) David Abshire, Assistant Secretary of State
for Congressional Relations, called to say that they had talked over in
the Department how best to respond to Senator Clifford Case's query
about Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty. They accordingly propose
that a bland "boilerplate" letter be drafted to Case and that as a follow-
up to the letter Ambassador Symmes (of Abshire's office) and Dick Davies,
of the European Division of State, meet personally with Case and answer
any further questions he might have, including anything affecting the Agency.
Abshire said that incidentally Frank Shakespeare, Director of USIA,
has received a query from Senator Case about RFE and RL asking, among
other things, about the feasibility of USIA taking over these activities._
Abshire said Shakespeare was very anxious to talk personally to Case to
explain the importance of RFE and RL, and wondered if we had any
objection.
After checking with Cord Meyer, ADDP, I called Abshire back
to say that we concurred in their proposal to send the letter and meet
personally with Case, but would like to see a draft of the letter in
advance. I said we would urge that they talk only to Case and not to
members of his staff. I also said we had no objection to Frank Shakespeare
talking to Case as suggested.
2. (Confidential - JMM) After talking to Bruce Clarke, D/OSR,
about the request of Richard Perle, on the staff of Senator Jackson's Subcom-
mittee on National Security and International Operations, I called Perle to
say that we really couldn't give him any very useful estimates of the cost
to the Soviets of pursuing various options of their missile programs. I
recalled that we had briefed Perle last May on these subjects, and said we
couldn't add much to what was covered at that time. Perle said he appreciated
the problem, but it was nevertheless of vital importance in connection with
U. S. decisions regarding SALT. I said we would keep this in mind.

7. (Confidential - LLM) Returned to Jay Sourwine, Chief Counsel,
Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, the galley proofs of the Runge

In response to his question of yesterday and based on discussion

Chicago Tribune story on a CIA report of 43 camps in Cuba training some
10 thousand terrorists from all continents was inaccurate, and that the
reduced level of such activity in Cuba following the Che Guevera failure
has continued.

Jackson (D. , Wash. ), Richard Perle, of the staff of Senator Jackson's
Subcommittee on National Security and International Operations, visited
Headquarters and was briefed by Carl Duckett on verification problems
relating to SALT. Perle left with us some follow up questions concerning
the cost of certain possible Soviet Force changes which have been
referred to OSR.
During his visit, Perle asked me some questions about the
Neil Sheehan story on subversives in the GVN. I said it concerned a
working paper which was circulated within the community--not a coordinated
estimate and that Sheehan's sources were obviously familiar with the paper
but his press account contained some errors and distortions which tended to
exaggerate the seriousness of the problem. 25X1
Mr. Moose asked, half facetiously, if the Chairman could see
a copy of the document referred to in Neil Sheehan's article about subversion
in the GVN. I said this was a working paper, not a community estimate,
and while Sheehan's version of it was generally accurate his article had
exaggerated the scope of the Communist penetrations in important respects.

Andrews in the deteriorating civil situationi during the briefing 25X6
by General Cushman. Mr. Preston advised that we should note these
interests but that both representatives are in their home districts and
there would be little point in attempting any follow-up.
Mr. Preston asked about the current Agency air travel policy inside

by the Department of Defense not to carry classified documents during air
travel. I outlined the present Agency policy and told him I would check on
the current application of the policy. The Chairman is concerned about
air travel of members and planned subcommittee trips.
I briefed Mr, Preston on the status in the Egyptian standstill zone,
possible imminence of a Soviet circumlunar probe, SS-11 testing, and
possible Soviet use of Singapore facilities.

to say Senator Jackson was anxious for him to be briefed on verification
techniques and the judgments involved in connection with SALT. Perle
made reference to the fact that we had not wanted to participate in a
joint briefing of Senator Jackson's Subcommittee on SALT and added he
was doing a paper for the Senator on the subject. Arrangements have
been made for Perle to come to the Agency on Wednesday morning at
10:00 a. m. to discuss this subject with Mr. Duckett.
5. (Confidential - GLC) Hand-carried to Ed Braswell, Chief of

and portions of Laos prepared at Senator Stennis' request at the last briefing
we gave him on Cambodia. Braswell commented on the "publicity" we had
gotten in Neil Sheehan's article in today's New York Times, but said he saw
nothing particularly sensitive in the circumstances of the article. I briefed
Braswell on certain parts of the article which were not entirely accurate.
I briefed Braswell on several current intelligence items including:
a. Problems with the Soviet Flogger;
b. Increase in Soviet photo reconnaissance;

e. Soviet preparations for a new circumlunar probe.

Sourwine called and asked if there was anything to a 6 October item
in the Chicago Tribune reporting that CIA had determined that some 43 (camps
with some ten thousand occupants had been set up in Cuba for terrorist
training of nationals from all continents. Sourwine said that it would be hard
to believe the figures involved, but that he would be interested in anything we
might have along this line which can be shared with the Subcommittee. I told
Sourwine I would check and be back in touch.

on a working-paper study done in the Agency in May that had received
rather extensive circulation outside the Agency. I noted that it must be
remembered that only a relatively small percentage of those involved
could be considered hard core. I also gave Mr. Slatinshek a proposed

be handled and asked him if he would forward to us a copy of Case's
letter for our study. I said that while the answers to the questions in

1. (Confidential - JMM) Called Wilfred Rommel, Assistant
Director for Legislative Reference, Office of Management and Budget,
to ask him to try to expedite our legislative package as explained in my

Walter Mondale, called to say the Senator was very anxious to have an
early briefing /I said we would like to be helpful but it
had been decided this subject would be handled by the Defense Department
and suggested he call Dick Capen, Assistant Secretary of Defense for
Congressional Relations. Morris said the Senator would also like a
briefing on the "strategic balance. " I said we were responsible only for
hostile forces, and a meaningful briefing on the "strategic balance" would
have to cover both friendly and hostile forces which could properly be
handled only by the Pentagon.
3. (Confidential - JMM) Bill Hancock, General Counsel, ACDA,
called about Senator Jackson's request for an Agency representative to
appear tomorrow along with the SALT delegation to discuss verification.

Jackson personally. Hancock seemed to understand the situation.

Committee, called to say that Chairman Mahon wanted to change the time
of tomorrow's briefing of the CIA Subcommittee to 10:00 a. m. Preston

someone there to cover it if need be.

1. (Confidential - JMM) Called Roland Paul, Senate Foreign
Relations Committee staff, regarding our earlier conversations about
the number of Greek political prisoners under the present regime as
compared with those during the Papandreou, period. I explained that,
after checking with the experts, I found it could be argued, as a State
Department witness had testified, that there were more political
prisoners under Papandreou than now, on the basis that when the
Papandreous first came into power there were nearly 1, 000 -- all but a
handful were released during the Papandreou government whereas
today there are approximately 500 political prisoners still incarcerated.
Paul agreed with me that the way the figures had been presented by
the Department witness gave a misleading impression but said that he
had explained the true facts to Chairman Fulbright.
2. (Confidential - JMM) Called Richard Perle, staff of the Senate
Subcommittee on National Security and International Operations, and
explained that we could not provide a witness to join with the SALT
delegation in testifying next week but would be glad to brief Senator
Henry Jackson privately.

Appropriations Committee, called to say Chairman Mahon would like
to schedule a meeting of the CIA Subcommittee for 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday,

availability, explaining that the General had another important commit-
ment later that afternoon. Preston assured me that our Subcommittee
session probably wouldn't run more than an hour and a half.

4. (Confidential - GLC) Bill Woodruff, Counsel, Senate Appro-
priations Committee, called about an inquiry he had received from a
congressional office about a recent New York Timer,' article concerning
Senate committee hearings on the subject of homosexuality in the Central
Intelligence Agency. Woodruff asked if I knew anything about the article
(which he was unable to identify further). I told Woodruff I knew nothing
about such an article and certainly there were no such hearings. I
speculated this was a gross misstatement regarding our appearance
before Senator Ervin's Constitutional Rights Subcommittee on the so-called
Government Bill of Rights in which there was some discussion of the use
of polygraphs to identify applicants who might have homosexual tendencies.
Woodruff agreed that this was probably the case and said it was not
necessary to pursue the matter further as far as he was concerned.

came to the Agency and spoke to the Mid-Career Course on the subject
of the organization of the Congress.

Chief Counsel, House Committee on Ways and Means, and reviewed with
him S. 2984, a bill to provide civil service retirement credit for periods
of contract employment. Mr. Martin told me that he had had a member of
the staff review the bill as amended by the Senate and learned that there
is opposition to the bill in the Social Security Administration and suggested
that we might want to work within our own channels and through Civil Service
to see if the objection could be resolved. In keeping with our interest he
will continue assignment of the bill.
7. (Confidential - JGO) Met with Representative George P. Miller
(D. , Calif. ), Chairman, House Committee on Science and Astronautics,

(R. , Pa.) concerning a list of the place names mentioned in the briefing
of 24 September. Chairman Miller thanked me for keeping him up to

request. He told me, however, that handling of classified material for Mr.
Fulton would require Mr. Fulton's personal approval. After talking to Mr.
Fulton by telephone Hal asked that I take the material to Representative
Fulton in his office.
In brief, Representative Fulton advised that the names and locations,

reading of unclassified sources. He also said that he has no desire to have
classified military information in his office. Representative Fulton gave me
a copy of his hand-written list made during my conversation with him of

Thursday - 1 Y October 1970
1. (Secret - JMM) After checking with the Director, called
Dorothy Fosdick, Staff Director, Senate Government Operations Subcom-
mittee on National Security and International Operations, in response to
her request, in Senator Jackson's behalf, that she and Richard Perle, of
the Subcommittee staff, be briefed on Cuba. I said I understood they
were particularly interested in the reports regarding She 25X1
said this was true. I said this posed some problems and I was afraid
we would have to beg off. I explained that in order to avoid different
agencies all talking at once on this rather sensitive matter, it had been
decided that DOD would carry the ball. I said she could be sure that
DOD would have any information available to us, which probably wouldn't
be very much beyond what appeared in the press. In any event, I
suggested she call Dick Capen of DOD, and let us know if she ran into
any problems.
2. (Secret - JMM) Had a lengthy conversation by phone with
Ed Braswell, Chief of Staff, Senate Armed Services Committee, regarding
problems created by the Fulbright amendment. See Memo for Record.
We agreed we would meet tomorrow and review the matter in more detail
preparatory to the Director's meeting with Chairman Stennis.
3. (Secret - GLC) Talked with Bill Woodruff, Counsel, Senate
Appropriations Committee, about the content of the letter which he wants
from OMB on our budget. He said he had no particular advice other than
it should be written as a supplement to OMB's February 1970 letter
indicating that the budget estimate for the Agency has been increased by
a specific amount over the earlier request. He also said that the letter
should indicate the source of the funds transferred. Colonel White and
Mr. John Clarke have been advised.

5. (Confidential - GLC) Called Victor Zafra, OMB, to advise him
of our response to OMB on the private bill for the benefit of two Pueblo
crew members (H. R. 3946) and to also let him know that Mr. Maury and
the Director had written letters to OMB on our retirement legislation. I
discussed with Zafra some of the fringe issues which were involved in
the private bill. He said he had expected us to discuss these areas in our
response and formally requested that we provide a followup letter which
at least discusses the question of hostile fire pay and other benefits which
the Agency accords its employees or feels are applicable in such situations.
Zafra mentioned that he has also had to go back to State and AID asking
them to expand their responses along similar lines.
When I gave Zafra the substance of our letter on the retirement
legislation, he brought up the question of a possible increase in Agency
and employee contributions in order to maintain our retirement fund. I
told Zafra that I was not fully conversant with the fiscal details involved,
but asked if this issue had been raised in connection with similar legislation
accorded the State Department last year. I also said it had been my under-
standing that the funding issue was not a direct result of our substantive
provisions and again suggested that OMB clear those provisions and resolve
our funding question when that issue was resolved for the other retirement
systems. Zafra said the clearance of the Foreign Service provisions had
been an error as far as he was concerned and was one in which he was
''embarrassed institutionally.'' He said he would track down our letters
and review them.
6. (Secret - RJK) Per arrangements made byl picked
up from Jay Sourwine, Senate Internal Security Subcommittee Staff,
the Diary of the Katyn Forrest Massacre.
7. (Internal Use Only - RJK) Delivered to the Offices of Senators
Edmund S. Muskie (D., Maine), John Sparkman (D., Ala.), J. W. Fulbright
(D., Ark), Mark O. Hatfield (R., Oreg.), and Hugh Scott (R., Pa.) FBIS
