11, Left with Chris Sylvester, in the office of
Senator Milton Young, the Director's communication regarding S. 1035. Stilwell
is very familiar with the background on this legislation having worked with
the Senator in the preparation of his letter to Senator Ervin on our behalf.

attention immediately upon his return.
Representative Frank Horton (R. , N. Y.) and his Administrative Assistant, Mr.

enclosing a copy of a letter dated 1 September to Senator Russell regarding S. 1035.
I advised Mr. Williams that the matter is one of concern to the Director and that
the correspondence was being provided each participant of the CIA Subcommittee.
It was suggested that if the Senator had any questions or if we could be of further
assistance I would appreciate a call. Mr. Williams advised that Senator Fulbright
would be back in the office in the morning and that he would bring the
correspondence to his attention at that time.
