1 September letter to Mr. Elmer Staats, Comptroller General
of the United States, regarding GAO's draft report on
An hour later, Mr.Fowler stopped by the office to pick up
the copy.
2. I I FOIA/LIAISON I called the
office or Representative o ert Livingston (R., La.) and
spoke with Ms. Alice Mayer, Executive Secretary, concerning
an inquiry CIA received from Mr. S. J. Primm who had
-requested that any information or correspondence directed
to him also be sent to the Congressman. Ms. Mayer indicated
that she was aware of Mr. Primm's request and did wish to
receive a copy of the Agency's response to Mr. Primm.
`['his is being sent out today.
3. LIAISON On Thursday, 31 August,
Mr. Bob Old, Minority Counsel, Senate Armed Services Committee,
called to determine whether CIA had in its old Files any
newspaper articles for 1963 relating to the Cuban missile
crisis. He was aware that the actual time of the missile
crisis was October 1962; however, he felt the articles he
was looking for, at the request of Senator John Tower (R., Texas)
were published in 1963. After several calls between OLC and
Mr. Old, wherein he was given the little information that
was surfaced, he gave me one more specific date to check out.
It seems the Senator is interested in comments made against
him by Fidel Castro during 1963 but concerning the missile
crisis. I called today to pass the results of the latest
search to Mr. Old, but he is away until Thursday and I left
word with his office.
