Representative Bill D. Burlison (D., Mo.) could meet with the
Director on either 21 or 27 November for lunch and for briefings on
his upcoming trip. After checking with the Congressman's office,
Andrews said the 21st was out and the 27th was available, but

they would prefer 24 November, but would leave it to the Director
