I IMr. Scott Cohen, in the office of Senator Char es Percy R. , Ill. I, called to set up a briefing for himself and William G. Miller, of Senator Cooper's staff, on the Soviet ABM System. Mr. Cohen said that he and Miller were working on this as legmen for their Senators and that the information is needed in connection with the consideration of the Defense Appropriation bill. I told Mr. Cohen that we would relay his request and be back in touch. 6. Met with Representative F. Edward Hebert, o the Hardy National Defense Posture Subcommittee, who advised that on the strong recommendation of the Embassy in Stockholm he had not attempted to meet with the military deserter who is a son of one of his Louisiana constituents, The Embassy had advised that the lad is a very tough character and that previous attempts by the Embassy in a similar case had resulted in virtual entrapment of an Embassy officer. I advised Mr. Hebert in general terms, concerning the ASA military deserter, information that was passed to the Chairman of Armed Services through Mr. Blandford on last Friday. Mr. Hebert noted that the Subcommittee trip had been a very busy and trying one. He also made mention of Committee meetings with various ambassadors and others. It is his feeling that the overall Committee effort was well worth while. Mrs. Olga Watkins, in the office of Representative William Bates, concerning the news releases this week by the Republican Policy Committee Task Force on national security. It was noted that in addition to the 37-page report published in the Congressional Record by Senator Tower on Wednesday, an additional report on the National Security Council and national security would probably be forthcoming today.
