Howard Hunt's Claim that He Spied
on Goldwater in the 1964 Election Campaign
DDO Memorandum for IG, Same Subject,
Dated 20 December 1973
1. I talked to Elizabeth McIntosh on the phone. She said that
she and a secretary in Hunt's office were sent by Hunt to the Goldwater
Headquarters to pick up news releases and that is the only surveillance
she can imagine was carried out on Goldwater. Please note that this
story ties in very closely with the Washington Star News story of
December 20th which says that aunt told investigators that he had
"dispatched a cOuple of people to the Goldwater Headquarters to see
what was going on", and that "the operatives, one of whom may have
been a woman, obtained advance campaign schedules, news releases
and other information". I told Mrs. McIntosh someone from your
office might wish to contact her.
2. Tom Schreyer says that he was totally unaware of any
such operation or orders to carry out same.
