SUBJECT Proposed Response by DCI to
Rear Admiral John D. Kane, USN (Ret.)
1. Per our telecons, attached is a draft of a proposed
response to Admiral Kane's letter re Captain Lionel Krisel's
problem on the Bay of Pigs history.
2. Aside from the background spelled out in the draft
response to Admiral Kane, I would call your attention to the
fact that there is one area about which the CIA version of
the Bay of Pigs action will differ very sharply from that of
the US Navy. The issue concerns the authorization for the
USN to provide a Combat Air Patrol (CAP) for a one hour
period (0630-0730 Cuban time) on 19 April 1961. There was
a foul up, and two of the Cuban Brigade B-26's piloted by
US personnel were shot down and four Americans died.
3. In my first volume of the history (Air Operations,
March 1960-April 1961) -- which is currently being reviewed
-- I have established that the Navy was remiss in its obli-
gation to protect the B-26's. I know, however, that Krisel
does not buy this. He has discussed this subject with some
of our retirees who were involved in the air operation, and
he falls back on the traditional explanation that it was a
CIA failure to realize that there was a time difference be-
tween the point of departure of the B-26's (Nicaragua) and
the Cuban target. My thesis is that the time difference was
inconsequential and that the real fault lay with the C. O.
of the carrier Essex for failure of his radar to pick up the
aircraft and his failure to have at least one reconnaissance
aircraft on station to spot the incoming Brigade aircraft.
4. I see no point in raising this issue in the DCI's
response, however; and it is possible, of course, that if
this is one of the problem areas that Krisel has, he may be
convinced by my evidence.

Dear John:
Following receipt of your letter of 4 November 1977

work on a Bay of Pigs project for Admiral Arleigh Burke,

project in the Operational Archives Branch, Naval Historical

In the Spring of 1975, he was visited by Captain Krisel
for the purpose of discussing the respective histories on
the Bay of Pigs. At the time of Captain Krisel's visit,
noted that the focus of his history would be
on the period from March 1960 through April 1961; and he
showed Captain Krisel the tentative outline which he had

of these individuals apparently were quite reluctant to

progress which our respective historians have made, I would

Office of the Director
Dear Stan:
I
I am much intrigued by your concept of making information
about the CIA available to the broad American public by means
of traveling displays or other audio-visual aids, supplementing
or.even supplanting actual tours of the agency itself.
The people with the most experience in the circulation of
material of a variety of natures is the Smithsonian Institution
Traveling Exhibition Service, and whoever on your staff is work-
ing on this might well be in touch with. the energetic head of
this enterprise, Dennis Gould.
We have some experience in materials dealing strictly with
art, and in our case they could be in touch with Joseph Reis,
who has been developing similar materials for our own extension
service.
A logical place for the exhibition of such material might
well be the library system in this country. For that, useful
contacts might be someone designated by Daniel Boorstir., the
Librarian of_.Congress, or Russell Shank, librarian of UCLA,
former Smithsonian librarian, and President-elect of the Ameri-
can Library Association.
For printed matter, the Superindendent of Documents circu-
lates libraries with the availability of various government
information to a very wide list.
One of the agencies of the United States Government that
has covered the grass roots most thoroughly over the years is
the Department of Agriculture. The person there your staff
might be in touch with would be Karl F. Munson, Extension
Service.

in the areas of "Strategic Intelligence/Strategic Crisis-
Warning Intelligence".
I recently came across a Soviet book on U.S. Intelligence
Services (copies of title page and table of contents are
enclosed) published in Russian.Due to my non-fluency in Russian
I cannot use the book effectively, therefore I would be very
interested in the English translation which would enable me
to write a critique (or a counter-argument) of the book.
Looking forward tomyour close cooperation.

Dear Admiral Turner:
Recently I was visited by
Sta e university, and while here, he indicated to me that if
an opening should occur for a person who had experience in
the intelligence field and who was a competent scientist-
engineer, he would appreciate the opportunity to be considered.
He recalled with great satisfaction his Washington assignments
that appear on his curriculum vitae, which is attached.

I have no knowledge, of course, as to whether men
of his background and experience are being sought after and
I want to make it clear that I am submitting his name to you at
his suggestion. He is able, attractive, and as you see, has had
a variety of experiences.
In writing to you about him, perhaps I should call
attention to a quite different matter- -a memoir (Sputnik,
Scientists, and Eisenhower) that I am just publishing that covers
the period when I served President Eisenhower in various ways.
It includes some digressions on the CIA. These digressions

Executve- iyr
Thank you very much for taking the time to personally construct
a very detailed and informative letter pertaining to your agency's
fair employment practices. Your letter was a welcome departure
from past Administration responses to minorities' inquiries
about other executive departments.
However, on the subject of employment there--remain a few more
questions:
1. How many Black or Hispanic Americans are receiving over
$30,000 per annum and what per cent of all persons above
that paygrade do they comprise?
2. Is there even a remote possibility that Mr. Knoche's position
could be filled by a minority? (The Agency has now been in
existence for 30 years and such an appointment could certainly
signal a sincere desire on the part of the Carter Administration
to eradicate institutionalized notions that ipso facto exclude
minorities from certain positions).
Finally, on the subject of minority business enterprise I certainly
understand the role of the CIA as well as any citizen not inits
direct employ, including its legally mandated sphere of operations.
However, I am also aware that expenditures -.even such routine ones
as that required for the printing of the descriptive brochure you
enclosed - was undoubtedly a domestic expenditure. In all, I think
one can reasonably conclude that the CIA makes considerable domestic
expenditures. The questions thus obtains: how much of those dollars
go to minority businesses and individuals? (or, in the absence of
dollar amounts - perhaps for security reasons - what percent?)
Your comments to date have been responsive and I hope that we can
continue to be candid on this subject. I look forward to hearing
f rom you soon.

Your 28 September letter to the President of the United
States has been referred to this Agency for response an
opportunity we welcome.
I wish to assure you, sir, that the Central Intelligence
Agency is not immune from fair employment and has no desire so
to be. We are, quite proudly, an equal opportunity employer
with an aggressive affirmative action. plan. CIA has made sub-
stantial progress in the last several years in our priority
objective to identify and recruit minority individuals for
employment with this Agency. In-Fiscal Year 1977, almost 15%
of the total number of individuals we brought on board for pro-
fessional and technical positions were either Black or Hispanic
Americans. They generally ranged-.in grade and salary from GS-7
(currently $12,336 per annum) to GS-14, Step 6 (currently
$35,875 per annum). On the clerical side, we have done even
better. Twenty-seven per cent (27o).of the clerical employees
who entered on duty in FY-77 were minorities, mostly in, the
GS-3 (currently $7,930 per annum) and the GS-4 (currently $8,902
per annum) range. Internally, we have initiated or continued a
wide range--of programs- to assure equal opportunities for our
minority employees and to utilize fully their skills and talents.
We have worked hard to improve. The results are encouraging but
much, of course, remains to be done. Enclosed, for your perusal,
is the CIA Equal Employment Opportunity Plan for Fiscal Year 1977
and a recruitment brochure. Our FY-78 Plan has been approved by
the Civil Service Commission and will be published shortly.
I have read the list of High-Level Black Appointments in
the Carter Administration prepared by Mr. John W. Lewis, Jr.
The Central Intelligence Agency is-quite unique in regard to
Presidential appointments in that only two of our positions fall
in that category. They are the Director of Central Intelligence

and the Deputy Director of Central Intelligence. As you know,
Admiral Stansfield Turner was President Carter's choice to be
Director of Central Intelligence. The position of Deputy
Director of Central Intelligence is vacant following the retire-
ment of Mr. E. H. Knoche on 1 August 1977.
The absence of the Agency from the Inter-Agency Council
for Minority Business Enterprise is easy to explain by an
examination of our role in the Executive Branch. It is the
responsibility of the Central Intelligence Agency to collect,
evaluate, and produce foreign intelligence. The primary task
of CIA is to provide t Fe most accurate, comprehensive, and
objective information available about national security matters,
together with whatever can be learned or deduced about possible
impending foreign developments. As you can see, our charter
simply does not relate to domestic activities. As a matter of
fact, we are specifically prohibited from participating in all
such activities except for a few, like recruitment, that are
required to carry out our overseas charter. It would be most
inappropriate, therefore, for this Agency to participate in
the Inter-Agency Council for Minority Business Enterprise, the
membership of which includes senior executives of major agencies
and departments having programs to promote and strengthen
domestic business enterprises. Our presence on such a council
could easily be misunderstood, to the possible detriment of
that body's effectiveness.
I trust that my comments have been responsive to the con-
cerns you expressed in your letter to President Carter.

We certainly commend your administration for its activities promoting
greater development of American minority-owned businesses. Your
September 12 statement released by Mr. Powell's office is most encour-
aging.
However, there exists a rather glaring contradiction i_rLthe_form a._
the Central in-Agency which gives. p ne__pause __in_terms., of .the
-sincerity of various Administration statements advocating _uni,ve.,rsa.l,-_
equa`Iify: -From ari i t-erna~~erspective it .appears that no Black person
fias a substantive role within the Agency. (I have enclosed--a--l st pre-
pared by an associate of mine, John Lewis, which, you will note, does
not contain a reference to the. CIA.)
Externally, the Agency appears not to have a policy aimed at encourag-
ing minority participation in its affairs. Its absence from the Inter-
agency Council for Minority Business Enterprise (see enclosed.) is
evidence of this.
We contend that to permit any agency of government, for whatever reason,
to not have an affirmative action policy sets a dangerous precedent for
discrimination in other segments of the public and private sectors. No
argument, "security" or otherwise, should be advanced in the cause of
discrimination.
Therefore, we.. as a 100% minority-owned firm, request that immediate
and definitive steps be undertaken by your office to eliminate this
seeming immunYtr from fair employment and business practices.
We thank you in advance for your personal attention in. this matter.
Sincerely,
THE WESTLAND COMPANIES

Dear Stan,
Several years ago, Admiral Arleigh A. Burke made arrange-
ments with the Navy for Captain Lionel Krisel, USNR (Retired),
to undertake a complete, documented account of the Bay of Pigs
operation for deposit in the Navy's classified archives.
Captain Krisel was ordered to this Center by the Navy Depart-
ment for two extended periods of temporary active duty to re-
search available records and to interview participants in the
operation. Since completing his last active-duty tour in 1975,
Captain Krisel has continued to undertake research and writing
on this project under the personal direction of Admiral Burke.
Inasmuch as Captain Krisel has expressed interest in con-
sulting certain Central Intelligence records that relate to his
subject, I am writing this letter to acquaint you with the
background of this project. It is hoped that your agency will
be able to offer appropriate assistance to him.
With warm regards as I remain,
JCI-N D H': KANE, JR.

I was sorry to learn from your recent note that we
were too :Late in extending an invitation to you to
schedule you at Principia this fall. Will you be
good enough to keep in mind our desire to have you
come to Principia when that would work out with your
schedule? If I.should extend another invitation at
some later date, I hope you will advise me as to the
proper procedure.
Ever with warm good wishes to you and Pat.

You were very thoughtful indeed to chase down the statistics on
petroleum use. I find it very helpful as a private citizen to
have this kind of information and only wish it were more widespread.
As you point out, the big savings will have to come in the trans-
portation category. However, my brief homespun study, copy of
which is enclosed, leads me to want to ask some further questions
of somebody about the first two categories, particularly the In-
dustrial. I had been hearing that industry, faced with the high
cost of petroleum, was actually cutting down in its use, but it
doesn't look that way.
We felt it was a great privilege,Stan, to have that relaxed
family time with you and Pat and the others at Aptos last month.
We greatly enjoyed getting caught up with you after some years.
I hope we meet again before another twenty have passed.
I wonder if you would ever feel that you could accept an invitation
to speak to our student body here at Principia College? .I hesitate
to even bring the subject up because I can imagine how extremely
busy you are, and we do not want to impose. However, it would
mean a great deal to all of us at Principia if you think you could
make a visit to the campus sometime during the academic year. I
would be delighted to work with,you on details if you feel there
is any possibility.
Helen joins in warm good wishes to you and Pat.

Dear Dave,
During one of our stimulating conversations
at Sanderling, you mentioned that you had difficulty
in-determining just where our oil supplies were
actually being consumed. I asked one of my staff
to check with Dr. Schlesinger's office, and enclosed
is a breakdown of the 1975 and 1976 statistics. It
really shows that busses, trucks and cars are-the
big consumers - 55% of the total.
Pat and I certainly found it a great treat
to have an opportunity to be with-you and Helen
as well as the California-Andrews clan. We-are
so pleased that we had that day of overlap.
Look forward to seeing you both again soon.
All the best.
