Thursday - 11 August 1966
1, Mr. Robert Michaels, House Appropriations
Committee staff, called to inquire if he could meet with appropriate
people at the Agency tomorrow at three o'clock to discuss certain
changes which were brought to his attention by Mr. Anthony of the
Defense Department. After checking with Mr. Clarke,who will get
appropriate policy guidance, arrangements were confirmed.
2. Talked with William Darden and William
Woodruff explaining the Director's desire that they be briefed by Colonel
White concerning some of the questions and points raised at the meeting
on 9 August on the on the Hill. Mr. Woodruff will not be able
to make it this week. Mr. Darden's plans are to be away next week although
these are not firm. This matter will be checked further to attempt to set
a date.
3. Met with Mr. Carl Marcy, Senate
Foreign Relations Committee staff, during the day and discussed again
in a light vein the I I clarified that the non-Agency member
of the Board is actually with us for duty but has only recently arrived
and does hold all the necessary clearances. Mr. Marcy felt that this was
well and noted that this had been a personal query on his part in our
conversation of yesterday; that it just seemed that the Agency, when faced
with this type situation, should take every precaution to insure that no
question arrives later as to the propriety of the actions taken by the Agency.
I also reviewed, in the time available, the Committee transcript of Friday,
29 July.
4. I I Met with Mr. Phil Kelleher, House
Armed Services Committee, and provided various editorial and typographic
corrections for the transcript of the House Armed Services Committee
hearing on H. R. 16306. It is anticipated that the hearings, amended bill,
and report will be forwarded to the printers today.

Wednesday - 10 August 1966
1. Met with Representative Albert Quie, (R. ,
Minn.) an his Administrative Assistant, Reynold Bergquist, concerning
the employment of I land advised for the
Congressman's personal information that I entered into
employment with another organization on 31 July. Representative Quie
was most appreciative and indicated that he would close his file without
further notation.
2. 1 Met with Mr. Philip Kelleher, Counsel,
House Armed Services Committee, and received a copy of the transcript
of the executive session of the full House Armed Services Committee on
9 August for review and correction. This transcript relates to H. R.
16306, referred to in the presentation of the full Committee as the CIA
legislation.
3.1 --j Met with Mr. Carl Marcy, Staff Director,
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and requested a copy of the
transcript of the DCI's appearance before Foreign Relations Committee
on 29 July. Mr. Marcy indicated that as a personal note, he didn't see
why a copy couldn't be made available for the Director but in keeping
with Committee policy, he did want to mention the matter to the Chairman.
I also discussed briefly thel in the light of Senator
McCarthy's request that the Committee staff keep him advised on the
matter. I noted that the Director had appointed a Board of Inquiry, which
is meeting; and in response to Mr. Marcy's query, I advised that it was
my understanding that the Chairman is from outside the Agency. Mr.
Marcy requested that he be kept advised as appropriate information
became available for transmittal on this matter.
Mr. Arthur Kuhl, Chief Clerk, called later in the day and advised
that Mr. Marcy had talked to the Chairman concerning the transcript of
Mr. Helms' appearance. The Chairman felt that under the Committee
rules, it would be necessary to take the matter before the full Committee
for approval. However, it was indicated that if we desired, we might
come by and review the transcript in the Committee rooms. I thanked
Mr. Kuhl very much for the Chairman's courtesy and arranged to review
the transcript tomorrow morning.
