Office of Legislative Counsel
Thursday - 5 November 1953
V
1. Mr. Morris, Counsel for the Internal Security Subcommittee, in-
V formed me that a Senator (whose name he was not in a position to disclose)
had reported to Sen. Jenner that CIA was utilizing or employing Professor
I Sen. Jenner is sending a letter to the DCI ask-
is checking the CIA records to make
certain whether we have ever utilized STATOTHR
2. I talked informally with Mr. Hyde, of the legislative staff of the
Bureau of the Budget, concerning S. J. Res. 96, and told him that we did not
wish to make a formal reply to his request for comments as we would not make
an official comment on the creation of a Congressional Committee. However,
I told him informally, and not for attribution, that our people were somewhat
opposed to the establishment of this Commission on International Telecommuni-
cations as it would involve disclosure of highly classified information in the
electro -magnetic and telecommunications field, which is presently being
handled at the NSC level and would also involve CIA information on Soviet tele - 25X1
communications capabilities.
