7. (Unclassified - WPB) Called George Gilbert at OMB to inform
him that State had some problems with a sentence in our comments on S.
244 concerning Section (g)(2) and that we were preparing to forward
alternative language. He said he appreciated being alerted, although he
himself saw no problem with the language as it was.
8. (Confidential - LLM) Accompanied Mr. Warner to a meeting at
State with Messrs. Emerson Brown, Bill Jones and Gene Malmborg..
to discuss State's draft position with respect to our unauthorized disclosure
legislation. In a constructive session at State representatives conceded
to drop references to section (g)(2) as possibly placing restrictions on
intelligence information from our ambassadors as being contentious without
due cause and we agreed that the Director probably would not object to dropping
certain language from the Speaker letter concerning problems with legislation.
encompassing a larger class of persons than those covered by the proposed
legislation. On the general timing of the proposal it was agreed that it
would perhaps be best to table the matter at a USIB meeting and in that
connection we said we would advise OMB of this development in connection
with OMB imposed requirements for departmental reports back to OMB.

Armed Services Committee, called to report that Pat Holt, Chief of Staff,

and Staff Director, Senate Armed Services Committee, concerning the possible-
termination of the NID and that as a result the matter had been discussed with.
Chairman John C. Stennis (D. , Miss. ), Senate Armed Services Committee.
He feels this will be a tremendous loss to the Committee but would not want:
to do anything to. make things more difficult for the Agency. I thanked McFadden
for letting us know and informed him that the NID would be continued through
the recess, the matter was being reconsidered and we would notify him before
the fact if it is terminated.
