SUBJECT: Project Mockingbird
Background:
Routine review of the daily syndicated column of newsmen Robert S. Allen
and Paul J. Scott in early -1962 developed indications that classified information,
sometimes code word material, was being utilized as the basis for a high per-
centage of their columns. Although much oi the information contained in the
columns was garbled, it was apparent that key points were frequently direct
quotes from classified reports and summaries of recent vintage.
� The Director of Security received a requirement from the DCI in March
1962 to attempt through appropriate investigative activity to determine, if
possible, the identities of the source or sources of classified information to
the two newsmen.
it was recommended to the DCI that telephonic monitoring would be the
most productive. In addition, certain investigation limited to discreet checks
of records sources was recommended. With approval of the DCI, around the
clock telephone monitoring was conducted of telephone lines to each of the
newsmen's homes and to the office which they shared jointly.
(b)(3)
(b)(3)
The activity was continued until mid-June 1962, at which time the tele-
phonic coverage was discontinued to coincide with the retirement of the Director
of Security. Knowledge of the activity, beyond a limited few in the Office of.
Security directly involved in processing the acquired data, is indicated as being
limited to the DCI, the DDCI, the Executive Director-Comptroller and the
General Connsel. Subsequently the DCI advised that he had briefed the Attorney
General, the Secretary of Defense and the Director of the Defense Intelligs.ence
Agency. Regular briefings of the DCI were conducted by the Director of Security
throughout the tunure of the operation.
Information Developed:
Project Mockingbird was extremely productive in developing sources of
data, both classified and unclassified, to the two newsmen, as a result of a
daily telephone conversation the two men would conduct after the senior mem-
ber of the team, Col. Robert S. Allen, would complete the re-write of raw
data left for him in the office by Paul J. Scott. It became apparent that Scott
acquired most of the sensitive data, and that he acquired it in highly accurate
form. The obvious garbling of the data occurred in the re-write by Col. Allen.
At first it was believed that the garbling was a by-product of Col. Allen's reiu-
lar state of intoxication; however,

The newsmen's sources were wide-ranging, and much of the information
provided to them by these sources never saw print. In a number of cases
the writers specifically noted that such-and-such an item could not be used
in any form because it could be directly attributed to the source.
During its short tenure, MOCKINGBIRD established the identities of
significant number of sources and "cooperative" individuals. Much of
this information was of a partisan political nature or was in the nature
In those cases of
direct interest to the purpose of MOCKINGBIRD, i.e. national defense
information, it was possible in many cases to establish a specific iden-
tity of the source providing the information. In other cases, it was pos-
sible to establish only a general, non-specific, identification of source,
such-as "my friends over in Navy," "he works right in their office," etc.
Because of the frequent compromise of sources by the newsmen, either
by name or essential elements which could lead to identification of an
individual, it became apparent that over an extended period of time most,
if not all, such sources could be identified, (As noted earlier, it was de-
cided to terminate MOCKINGBIRD with the retirement of the Director of
Security, rather than to continue the activity for a more desirable period
cc
Sources of information of all sorts used by Col. Allen and Scott can
be generalized as follows:
The Speaker of the House
Members of the Senate and House of Representatives
Congressional Staff members
Members of the News Media
Employees and staff members of the White House, the Department
of State, the Department of Defense, the Agency for International
Develo/pment, the Department of Justice, the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration and the Central Intelligence Agency
Staff members of the Office of the Vice President
The Republican and Democratic National Committees
Lobbyists
Retired Federal officers and officials
Miscellaneous others, ranging from a union official to a priest
There appeared to be a fairly clear division of source types between
Col. Allen and Paul Scott, which might be generalized as follows:
a. Col. Allen appeared to have most of his contacts among former
Army associates and Col. Kehm, for example)
and "old New Deal" personalities, (Oscar Chapman, for example).

b. Paul Scott, by far the most active of the two men, had the remaining
contacts. 'Monitors of MOCKINGBIRD were frequently amazed at the
sheer bulk of information Scott would acquire in the course of a day.
Most of the highly classified information mentioned as such in the
conversations is directly attributable to Scott's sources. Scott
made frequent reference to his close association with the Speaker
of the House, and in one discussion with his White House source
promised a "McCormack cigar" in exchange for a report he sub-
sequently received from White House records. (Scott had taken
a leave of absence from the column the previous year to assist
in the unsuccessful political bid of the Speaker's nephew.)
MOCKINGBIRD was not successful during its three months of operation in
identifying Col. Allen and Scott's source or sources in this Agency. The prin-
ciple source of concern, Mr. "(", appeared to be in the Office of National
Estimates. A blind memo regarding him, including references to his written
comments on certain National Estimates and statements he is supposed to have
made, was shown by the Director of Security to Mr. Sherman Kent. Mr. Kent
was not aware of MOCKINGBIRD as the source. Mr. Kent subsequently ad-
vised the Director of Security that he was unable to identify "Mr. X" from the
information provided.
One significant factor developed by MOCKINGBIRD was the ability of the
newsmen to obtain warnings or guidance regarding possible threats to their
activities. For example:
a. In mid-March 1962,. Paul Scott advised Col. Allen that they were
under investigation by the Air Force Office of Special Investigations as a re-
sult of their accurate overflight stories. According to Scott, the Secretary
of Defense had directed the Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency to
conduct an investigation of the newsmen in an attempt to develop their sources.
The Director of DIA Subsequently held a meeting with regarding the pro-
posed conduct of the investigation. A "friend" of Scott's was present in a
office when a participant of the meeting was discussing it with other
personnel. Because there were too many people present at the time, the
"friend" was unable to obtain full details. Subsequently, the "friend" was
able to obtain further details, had discussed such an in-
vestigation with the a week or so earlier. He was not told, at the time,
of MOCKINGBIRD, but it was suggested that he initiate no investigative action.
When the foregoing information was obtained, .he was immediately 'briefed on
and shown the transcript of the pertainent conversations.
General Carroll insisted that he had adhered to the instruction and that
the meeting described by Scott had not taken place.)
b. In May 1962, Col. Allen indicated that he had recently been visited
by a man from CIA, an old Army friend, "Stanley." The apparent tenor of

'goof
of the meeting dealt with "pot shots" being taken at the DCI and the DCI's
concern that the Administration was planning to "unload him or kick him
upstairs." In a subsequent conversation, Paul Scott advised Col. Allen
that he (Scott) had been cautioned to be a little careful in what he said to
"Col. Grogan." Col. Grogan, he said, is very close to another person
in CIA, with loyalty like that to Mr. McCone. Scott indicated that his
source had advised that Col. Grogan had "a couple of meetings" with this
other, unnamed, person "this week," and that Col. Grogan's visits to
Col. Allen "may be both friendly and a surveillance job." (Col. Grogan
was not aware of MOCKINGBIRD, but was cooperating with the Director
of Security because of the mutual concern at Col. Allen and Scott's classi-
fied revelations. He, indeed, had met with the Director of Security both
prior to and after his visit to Col. Allen.) Scott's source of this informa-
tion was never identified.
Attached is a list of contacts and sources of Col. Allen and Paul Scott.
Those indicated by an asterisk provided information to them, ranging from
incidental political data to sensitive military information. Parenthetical
numbers indicate a specific report in the attached MOCKINGBIRD notebook.
Those for which no number appears are those persons identified in other
conversations. These latter conversations were not transcribed because
they did not deal directly with the inforruation leakage of concern.

SUBJECT: Articles by P.aul Scott and Robert Allen
1. In reference to the recent articles attacking Cord Meyer
in the Paul Scott Column, Cord Meyer related the following. Cbles
Bartlett of the ChattProoga Times is a Personal friend of Cord Meyer.
Pa7.tlett t.allred to Paul Scott and Scott indicated that his source
was internal in CIA. (When Col. Grogan talked to Bartlett, it apmeared
that Bartlett was under the impression that the source might be witbir
CIA, which was not nearly as positive as the reaction feceived Cord
Meyer).
2. It is further stated that the iraividunl feels thPt the
Agency is being imp.cuperly operated, and that same of its activities
are darge-,-ous to the country. Scott informed Bartlett that he has
raterial for three new colr�is as follows:
(1) mbnt the Agency contributed money to a
;4-4,
(2) That Cord Meyer's operation financed the
trip of Owen Tp.tti7ore to Outer Mongolia.
(3) That there are twelve Communist within:CIA.
3. 71/hen Grogan tellred to Bartlett, he suggested that Scott come
to see Grogan irlei/or Mr. NcC*La, and make known the identities of
the alleged twelve Communist in CIA, Grogan doubts that this will
occur. Further, when Bartlett tal%Pd to Paul Scott regarding the re-
cent article on Cord Meyer, he shoved Scott the copy of the articlet,S),
repeating Scott's information to Etroce where they Play on the.
financing of. the SociPlist movements. Bartlett endeavored to convey.
that Scott was doing disservice to this Government prerl the Intelligence_
Reportedly this shook Scott up a bit.

1. There is attached a ther.wofa-x of the 29 November 1961
article by Robert S. Allen and. Paul Scott entitled "New Chief of CIA.
Cracks Down on UnvOuchered $S". It should be noted that there are
handwritten comments beside the different paragraphs in this article
which were made by Mr. McCone indicating his knowledge or state-
ments concerning these items.
2. Of significance herein are the statements or reactions
of Mr. McCone to programs, factors, etc. occurring within the
Agency. In some instances Mr. .McCene has made statements which_
are reflected in. sabsta.ace in the article. la other a grapha thro
_a re_sts. tem t wh.i.c.h._Mr......J\-1c..ce.P..e. labeled. complete:1.y wrong or.
erroneous. In other instances Mr. McCone indicates that he had no
knowledge of the matter and obviously could not have a reaction_
3. In paragraph (1) Mr. McCone has cautiously expressed
an opinion which might be construed as the substance for this paragraph.
4. Paragraph (2) is labeled as completely wrong_
5. Paragraph (3) "expressed surprise at support of some
items but not conferences - 12. to 15 persons heard my (?) musings".
Colonel Grogan will confer with Mr. McCone u.pon..his return from the
West Coast in. an effort to obtain the identity of the 12 to 15 persons.

� 9. From the comments noted by Mr. .,1cCone it would appear
that there is some substance to these paragraphs as set forth in. the
Allen-Scott column. �
10. In considering the above and. the substance of previous
articles by Scott and Allen it would appear that a source 1.1..s been.
developed. by Scott (who is actually writing these columns) which
source has current and past knowledge of internal CL. events and
activities. Some of the items appearing in these columns clearly
show a. knowledge of detailed facts not generally known. This would
indicate quite possibly that Scott has a current source within CIA.
Apropos of paragraphs (6), (7), and (8) above, which Mr. McCone
indicated no knowledge of, it might be that the source, playing a cleaver
gPrrie� is endeavoring to bring to Mr. McCone's and public attention
these- facts or statements through the medium of this column with th.z..-
possible belief or supposition that some form of inquiry into these
matters would be made by Mr. McCon.e.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Paul Scott
1.' I h?d requested of Mr. Papich, FBI Liaison Officer,
that the FBI contact Paul Scott to obtain from him the identity
of his- informant or the names of the persons alleged to be
Communists within the CIA. Mr. Papich, on. 12 February 1962
advised that the Bureau will contact Paul Scott in this regard.
2. As background for the above, it was reported that
Paul Scott had the T'Prnes of 12 persons in CIA who are reported
to be Communists. Colonel Grogan contacted Paul Scott and
asked him for the identity of the twelve persons. Scott advised
that he had the names of eight such nez_sons.not twelve and that
he could not release these un1 he checked with his infer:ma:it.
r.ater, Colonel Grogan called Scott again and Scott advised that
his informant did not approve the release of the names or even
one -name in that he distrusted CIA. Scott advised that his. in-
formant ha 43 made imovrn these names to both the FBI and the
HCU.A.. A check of both the FBI nrld the HCU..A. failed to reveal
that any person. had come forward with in-Formation perta.ii-,4-vg-
to eight Cornmunists within CIA. In light of the negative
findings, I made" an. official request of the FBI to interview
Paul Scott to obtain these names.

ALMGATIONS BY SCOT: _ft.:21-3 .AT,T.17J
EGARDINC: CL
� The following allegations have either appeared in print or have
been made verbally by SCOTT and 47%17,7 about the Agency:
1. SCOTT. told Colonel GROGAN Pnd Charles BA21.= tHat be had been
told there were eight to twelve Ccrnists in the Af:,;eccv. When rter-
viewed by Colonel GROGAN, SCOTT sain He ilqd no "release: from his
infor-
yrnt but would ask: his most "creditable source" to furaish one name so
it could. be given ta Colonel GaoGAa and would see -what action CIA would
take.
This allegation smacks of James 7-71-.TTS old a3 legation that there
were twelve or thirteen Commilnists in CIA, none of which P 1 egations
stood up v71der investigation. A copy of T-d-T,LTS.' old P ] legation is
attached as Attachment A.
2. SCOTT' P 1 leged to GROGAN that CLA. tried to. influence the outco-74-e
of a Cor7ressional election. This again sounds 1ie James KT%JITS,
3. SCOTT and ALT17 have re9e-?-rea in their colu-in to "Case 7o. 1 as
all eqedI v...7.ipv-olv-Tm7 a CIA a,27,--,t now in London beitc,-, treated, wto
to be- cr-in fron fatie and. a bad case (�)-" nerves.. One U tf). -,,c
Su.spects Mn .of being a- double agent or under the influence of Ca=mutist
He is "0-11,--T-r,c- all efforts of U. S. offers to return .hi7 on
the grounds he is too sick to travel." This sounds like Lyle /a)S011's
often repeated theme that Nr. Frnn1;- -0155.1aH is a double agent or under the
-Ininuence of Cammunist b1 . A confidential source has advised that
Lyle. NITMACI has been In extensive contact with Senator Strom. 'IHH�,1.011.1
regarding the WAT'ci Case and. has tried to -Promote the idea that the
Overseas Weekly, Which first surfaced the WALKER Case1 was a CIA cover
company. . Another confidential source advised that Lyle NW'ISON� when be
contacts Senator '1:hUti.Y.ON-DTs office, contacts j. Fred BU77kB1)T. Th-c.s
same source states that .1,1UNSON was believed to have been resmonsible for -
placing Gunther HARTELL as an emoloyee in Senator Strom rilaitiONDIs. office.
HARTELL, according to the story, was formerly employed by U. Sy Intelligence
in Ger-marly. He formerly worked far- Army G-2 Headquarters on Brainwashing
matters.
It see'ris likely to the writer that MUNSON would unload his other
grievances against the Agency on Senator T=OND including his grievance
about Frank T,iISNER and. that this may be a channel by which SCOTT has
received this information. SCOTTS column on tigis llegation made the
further statement that 'also the Justice Department is investigating the
case of CIA agent No. 1 after it was brought to their attention by sources
other than the CIA." It has previously been reported that iariS0i7 is
very close to Lou ITIGEOLS and to certain FBI representatives in Ne7,r York
Ctv, and that in Dece-'ner 1958, FBI representatives visited Lyle 2.1UNSO4
in New.York City and told him that they were investigating T4ISIEER and
E
his mental condition. "-

LATORE's trip to Outer Moaolia received contributions fron CIA.
The 0-iren LAT,111,D RE case and his connection with T_PR is an old. them- of
Robert itinERIS who held extensive hearing on that case in the Senate
Internal Security Co7mittee In the rid 1950 s.
LATTIMORZ visited Outer Mongolia and returned to the United States
on October 2, 1961 after six weeks stay, retus.v4rg via Europe. He went
under the ausPices of the -C�i1 Foundation for Anthronol ogi cal
Research in. New. Iber City arri under the auspices of the American Pi-oil
ical Society; 7...wt.z.1.7c4=- of which ziaRtrfinanced by
The State Department reportedly had under study the recognition of
Outer .monci-oria wa-.s v&leTrently
the recognition of Outer Mongolia, and reportedly forced a State Depart-
ment position opposing its recognition.
6. Representative Bruce ALTER. (R.) of Texas was (mated by the
Associated., Press as say-in 'limes of cc=nication for the OIA are heavily
infiltrated 177. the Co-:.unista." SCOTT, when ou.estioned by GROGAN., said
Afli was refe.L.Ling to NSA.
Bruce ALCIF, the representative from Dalls, is a member of extre-e
right wing circles and is believed to be known to Robert MORRIS who is
President of the Dallas University. It is a possibility that MOP.= may
be the source of this allegation.
7. Accorddro' to Mt and SCOTTts the DCI McCONE is mekl.mg
a first hand survey of the Agency Estimates Division headed by
K7HT, 1ookin.z over their retorts to determine their accuracy and impact
on U. S. forei,,,:i policy, esteciPllv U. S. - Soviet relations. This has
touched off secret netima.s between CIA officials and members of the State
Danartment Policy '27 'Inr'irq, Staff. These officials are concerned that. they
will lose control of est5mates on which nolicy is being based if McCONE -
decides to check up on these divitOns. If this should hatoen the stae
would be set for a coritlete re-study of U. S. policy toward the Sovi-t -
Chinese Oarrunist Bloc and why these cos have failed to strengthen
the tide of international Oc7runiam.'

It is worth noting that the State Department Policy PlanaLng Staff,
when it was headed by Robert BOWIE. in 1956, was a favorite target of

Project MOCKINGBIRD
IDENTIFICATION:
BACKGROUND
APPROVAL
Project MOCKINGBIRD, a telephone tap
in 1963 of the homes and office of
Robert S. Allen and Paul J. Scott,
syndicated news columnists whose
columns appear in the Northern Virginia
Sun newspaper.
According to an undated and unsigned
memorandum (Tab 1) in the Project
MOCKINGBIRD file; routine review of
the daily syndicated column of Scott and
Allen in early 1962 developed indications
that classified information, sometimes
codeword material, was being utilized as
the basis for a percentage of their
columns, and although much of the in-
formation in the columns was garbled,
it was apparent that key points were
frequently direct quotes from classified
reports and summaries of recent vintage.
(While there are no copies of the columns
available in the file, there are memo-
randa referring to some of the articles
in question. These memoranda are attached
as (Tab 2).
(Tab 1) referred to above under Background
indicates that the Director of Security
received a requirement from the DCI in
March 1962 to attempt, through appropriate
investigative activity, to determine if
possible the identities of the source or
sources of the classified information to
the newsmen.

to the (Tab 1) memorandum, the DCI approved
the telephone monitoring of each of the
newsmen's homes and the office which. they
shared jointly. (Knowledge of the activity,

personnel, was limited in the Agency to
the DCI, DDCI and Executive Director-
Comptroller).
According to (Tab 1), the Office of
Security had the responsibility for
carrying out the operation. While the
Office of Security, through the Director
of Security, received a requirement from
the DCI to attempt through investigative
activity to determine the identities of
the source or sources of information to
the two newsmen, the Office of Security
recommended to the DCI and received his
approval to conduct telephone monitoring
of the newsmen. There is no indication
in the file relative to reporting arrange-
ments, however, a former Office of Security
employee familiar with the project and
now assigned to another Agency component
advised on 8 January
the project reporting and
was carried out verbally.

direction
According to (Tab 1), the operation began
in March 1962 and was discontinued in mid-
June 1962 to coincide with the retirement
of the D/OS. These times are at variance
with logs housed in the Office of the
Chief,. SSD, which indicate that the opera-
tion began on 12 March 1963 and ended on
17 June 1963. As previously indicated,
the telephones of the homes and the joint-
ly shared office of the newsmen were tapped.
There is no indication in the file or logs
as to the location of the listening post
and equipment. Coverage, according to the
logs, was 24 hours a day.
According to (Tab 1), Project MOCKINGBIRD
was extremely productive in developing
sources of data, both classified and un-
classified, to the newsmen. These sources
are listed in (Tab 1) and (Tab 3). It is
not clear from the record whether all of

these sources were identified through
the telephone tap. A detailed analysis
of the surveillance. logs might, however,
resolve this question. The files con-
tain transcripts of the telephone taps
but there is no indication of any formal
reports, attributable to the transcripts,
,being prepared for forwarding to higher
authority, with the possible exception
of the attached (Tab 4) memoranda.
