2. Returned to Ben Mandel, Senate
Internal Security Subcommittee staff, some of the Scandanavian newspapers
he had asked us to check regarding the granting of the Nobel Peace Prize
to Linus Pauling together with an FDD summary of the substance of these
articles. Mandel has asked if we would translate two of these items. We
will be in touch with FDD on: this.
3. Met with Representative Charles E.
Bennett to discuss his letter to the Director of 27 January 1964 and gave
him some of the background. Mr. Bennett seemed pleased and no response
is necessary. See more detailed Memorandum for the DCI of this date.
4. Met briefly with Senator Leverett
Saltonstall who had a few queries concerning the South Vietnam situation.
I was able to respond to his questions without getting into great detail.
5. Talked with Dorothy Fosdick, Staff
Director of the Jackson Subcommittee, expressing interest in the recent
study put out by the Subcommittee. It was indicated that Senator Jackson
will be forwarding a copy of the study directly to General Carter.

6. Left word for Representative Bob Wilson that
we had looked thoroughly into the matter which he brought to our attention
recently and without naming names left a message that the doctor involved
has received full payment and appears to be satisfied at this point and that
we were going into the other aspect of this case and would be in further touch.

7. Talked with Russ Blandford, House
Armed Services Committee staff, who indicated again that it was highly
likely that Mr. Vinson might well call on the Director for a briefing next
week. Mr. Blandford indicated that at this point it was not entirely clear
whether the request would be for a briefing on South Vietnam before the
full Committee or the Agency Subcommittee. Mr. Blandford also indicated
that there have been recent discussions which have come to the attention
of the Chairman concerning the proposal that the Intelligence Chiefs of
the three Services be dropped from membership on USIB. Blandford
indicated this also might be a topic to be raised by Mr. Vinson but will
endeavor to check this in advance of any meeting.
