NOTE TO: DCI
DDCI
o Richard W. Velde (bio attached) has passed
to us the word that Senator Dole would like
to know the DCI's views on the Quayle
Committee recommendation to combine the
SSCI and HPSCI into a single Committee. Velde
says the Senator stated that he has an open
mind. He would like to know, says Velde,
by Wednesday.
o Since you expressed a desire to see
Senator Dole soonest, this might be a good
catalyst.
Charles A. Briggs
N.B. Velde implied that Senator Dole might make
him liaison for intelligence.
