OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Mhursday - 20 February 1975
1. Doris Gibbons, PFIAB staff, called
and wanted to know if we could help her update the list of members on
the Agency's four oversight committees. I provided Mrs. Gibbons with
the information.
2. Jim Kronfeld, Counsel, House
Government Operations Subcommittee on Government Information and Individual
Rights, , called to alert us that Chairman Bella S. Abzug (D., N. Y. )
will request the Director to appear next Thursday, 27 February, before
the Subcommittee. The subject will be the Agency's exemption in the
Privacy Act of 1974. Chairman Abzug has introduced legislation (H. R. 2635)
to strike the exemption. The hearing will be investigatory and open, and
the Director will be placed under oath. I discussed with Kronfeld the basic
position of the Agency to seek an exemption for intelligence sources and
methods if the exemption for all CIA files is struck. Kronfeld thought
this approach would be best. He offered to work out with me any suitable 25X1
language to amend the Act along these lines.
4. I Talked with Chairman Lucien Nedzi, Intelligence
Subcommittee, House Armed Services Committee, about the House Select
Committee on Intelligence Activities. See Memo for Record.
5. Gary Burhop, in the office of Senator Bill
Brock, called and asked for professional brochures and application forms for
a constituent. Karla Hunt will send these out.
6. Jeff Yurdin, office of Representative Robert
Kasten, called and asked for a copy of the "statutes" book. A copy of "Guide to
CIA Statutes and Law" will be delivered to Mr. Yurdin. ' -

This i self-explanatory. We
have zilch on this fellow. The

options
gre: (a) let us sent it
to the Bureau, which seems odd in
view of the recipient, or (b) let

us pass it to the Bureau with the
express understanding of the
Subcommittee.
5.
I agree with the interpretation
that the letter has, on the

surface, a degree of
piquancy,
so the matter should not just die
here. 25X1
