6. Received a call from Representative Bob
Wilson (R. , Calif. ) who asked if we would arrange for a geographic type

Arrangements were made through
OCI, for a meeting with Jack King, OBGI, at the

7. Received a call from Sally Weaver,
Assistant to Representative Benjamin Blackburn (R. , Ga. ), who requested
detailed information concerning escapees and prisoners killed in escape
attempts from the Soviet bloc countries, China, Chile, etc. Miss Weaver
indicated that a letter request had been made to Secretary of State, which
she understood was being transferred to this Agency for action. After
checking with OCI, I called Stanton D. Anderson, Office
of Legislative Affairs, Department of State. Anderson said he would run
the letter down and agreed that it was not a matter for transfer to this
Agency for action. Miss Weaver will look to the Department of State for
a response to Representative Blackburn's original request.

8. In the company of Scott Breckinridge,
Deputy Inspector General, attended a meeting at State Department with
representatives of INR, including Mr. George Denney, Deputy Director,
Bureau of Intelligence and Research, Department of State, Marvin Gentile,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Security, Department of State, and Tom Smith,
FBI, to consider FBI's objections to State's proposed report. As a result
of the meeting, State's report will be substantially revised, the extent depending
upon the outcome of Thursday's session between the Attorney General and the
Muskie Surveillance Subcommittee. See Memorandum for Record for details.
9. Called Al Friendly, Counsel, Subcommittee
on Intergovernmental Relations, Committee on Government Operations, and
told him that it is doubtful that OMB will have cleared our views on Senate
bills S. 1726, S. 2451, 3399 and S. 3393, by the deadline of 22 May,
which caused him no great concern. I said we were optimistic that our answers
to the Committee's seven questions will be cleared by OMB by the deadline
date of 24 May. 25X1 25X1
