from Chairman Birch Bayh (D., Ind. ).,to the Director requesting
unsanitized copies of memoranda previously supplied to the House Select
Committee on Intelligence, Chaired by Representative .Otis G. Pike (D., N. Y.).
Ralston said the issues raised in Chairman Bayh's letter need not be addressed
specifically by the Director, that the Committee was only asking for
unsanitized copies of the documents enclosed. I told Ralston many of thes5X1
were over five years old and appeared to be very informal. and I therefore
suspected it would take some time to locate them all. Ralston indicated this
was fine.x ~;ia ';
