OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Thursday - 17 October 1968
1. I Talked to Dorothy Fosdick, Staff
Director, Senate Subcommittee on National Security and InternatiQQal
Operations, about the material provided for a possible speech by
Senator Jackson. She was most complimentary about what she had
already received and had some additional requests. (See Memorandum
for the Record for details. )
2. Accompanied to
brief Senator John Sherman Cooper regarding movements of Warsaw
Pact forces relating to the Czech crisis and the present deployment
of these forces. Mr. William Miller, of the Senator's staff, was
present. I briefed on a secret level, carefully distinguishing
which material could or could not be used in a public presentation.
The Senator concluded the meeting by remarking that he was somewhat
reassured that the present posture of the Warsaw Pact forces was not
as ominous as some observers had claimed. He said he expected a
briefing from Department of Defense representatives tomorrow.
3. Mr. John Sullivan, Administrative
Assistant to Senator Daniel Brewster, called to say the Senator would
appreciate a briefing on "world trouble spots" around noon on 22 October.
After checking with the Director I called Sullivan to confirm the time
of the briefing and to invite him and the Senator to have lunch with some
of us. He accepted with pleasure.
4. Ken Gray, Administrative Assistant
to Senator Joseph Tydings, called to inquire whether a car which has been
following a friend of the Senator's belongs to the Agency. Gray had
attempted to ascertain the owner through the Maryland Motor Vehicle
Department but the license number was blocked. After checking with
Security, I informed Gray the automobile does not belong to this Agency
and suggested that he should be able to obtain the identity of the owner
through the Maryland State Police.
