7. (Confidential - JGO) Received a call from Dr. John Brady,
House Foreign Affairs Committee staff, who told me that he will be
travelling to Europe and Latin America in January with Representatives
Murphy (D. , Ill.) and Steele (R. , Conn.) on a narcotics survey trip. He
asked if it would be possible to have a staff briefing on Latin America.
He does not feel that he needs anything on Europe at the present time.
Later in the day I put NARCOG, directly in touch
with Dr. Brady to assist Brady in lining out his itinerary for Latin America
and South America. Tentative arrangements have been made to brief
Brady at 2:00 p. m. on Friday, 22 December.
8. (Confidential - JGO) Received a call from Ralph Preston, House
Appropriations Committee staff, who told me that he had had a long meeting
with Chairman Mahon this morning and asked if I could provide him with
biographic and background information on Mr. Helms for the Chairman's
use. The Chairman intends to go on the floor soon after the beginning of
the new Congress with an address about Mr. Helms. He also asked if I
would provide whatever biographic information we have on Mr. Schlesinger.
9. (Confidential - JGO) Talked to Bill Van Ness, Chief Counsel,
Senate Interior and Insular Affairs Committee, and told him that we had
received a request from the Library of Congress for advice on security
clearances for members of the staff of Senator Lee Metcalf (D. , Mont. )
OFXi
Van Ness readily understood the
Agency policy of providing such information to members of the Senate or
cleared Committee staff personnel designated by the Chairman and said if it
would be of help he would be pleased to assist Senator Metcalf in this matter.
He also said that since Senator Jackson, Chairman of the Committee, had
excluded personal staff from the briefing a week ago that the Agency policy
is in accord with Senator Jackson's own thinking. I thanked Van Ness for
his advice and told him I would keep him up-to-date on this matter.
