6. I BRIEFING I accompanied Les Dirks,

handled by office of Security.
The briefing was on Agency I I and
25X1
Milford seemed quite appreciative of the background he was given.
I gave him background on where Representative Robert N.
Giaimo's (D., Conn.) $100 million Angola figure might have come from. 'fle
said it was unfortunate that members of the House Select Committee
were unprepared when such figures and other things like Sarn Adams'
testimony were presented to the Committee. Such unpreparedness
prevents adequate questioning to bring out the truth.
I gave him a copy of ou*'sources and methods package. He.
is interested in supporting some sort of legislation to tighten up the
security of intelligence activities.
We discussed his January 1976 trip and what he hoped to
gain from it. See Memorandum for the Record.
7. HEARINGS I called Torn. ,Susman, Chief
Counsel, Subcommittee on Administrative Practice & Procedure, Senate
Committee on the Judiciary,and received frorrih.imhis objections to our
deletions in the 1963 IG Report which he had obtained under an FOIA request
for Senator Kennedy, (D. , Mass. ). His comments were: Some of the
revisions were already public or disclosed by our testimony; and some he
simply did not understand our rationale. He said he would check these out
and would be back in touch. I have turned this matter over to
of the IG Staff who will work with
OGC,to close out this matter. 25X1
