MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Meeting with Michael Hershman, Deputy Staff Director,
House International Relations Subcommittee on
International Organizations
1. I I At his -request, I met with Mike Hershman and
he explained that the Subcommittee would like to resume contacts with
us and resume interviews with witnesses now that ther-
matter presumably has been resolved by the Justice Department. I
said I was not certain this would resolve the matter as far as we
were concerned but I would look into it and be back in touch with
him. Hershman said the Subcommittee has submitted or is submitting
a classified report to the House for such action as it (presumably the
House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct) deems appropriate.
I said this decision may not change the Attorney General/DCI position
on a stand-down on further access. In addition, there may still be
unresolved issues regarding staff disclosures.
2.II Hershman said he believes the Subcommittee's
only alternative will be the issuance of subpoenas. He recommends
discussions of all issues at the Fraser/Turner/Bell level if necessary.
Tony Lapham, General Counsel, and I will prepare a memorandum for
the Director as an agenda item in his meeting with Attorney General
Bell this week.
