4. (Secret - JMM) Met with Bill Woodruff, Assistant Chief Clerk,
Senate Appropriations Committee, whom I briefed on:
a. New Soviet military district.
b. ChiCom civil defense measures.
c. Soviet economic lag.
d. Possibility that Soviets will commemorate Stalin's
birthday on 21 December for the first time since 1955.
Mr. Woodruff said that Senator Russell had apparently forgotten
to raise with the Director, during their last meeting, the question of with-
drawals from the Reserves.
5. (Confidential - GLC) Met with Ed Braswell, on the staff of
the Senate Armed Services Committee, and brought him up-to-date on
several briefing items. I also left with him a copy of the House Armed
Services Committee report on our retirement bill. Braswell said this
was a simple piece of legislation and he plans to discuss Committee
action on it with Senator Stennis in the next day or two. He said it was
possible although he made no promises that the Committee could report
out our bill a week from today along with the Armed Services cost-of-
living bill which has passed the House. I mentioned that our bill might
possibly be deferred on the Consent Calendar past 1 December. Braswell
said in that event the Senate Committee could report a clean bill, place
it on the Senate calendar and merely substitute our House-passed bill
for it at the appropriate time.
6. (Confidential - GLC) Picked up from Jay Sourwine, Chief
Counsel, Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, eight volumes of testimony
given the Subcommittee by These have been forwarded to CI Staff
for review. Sourwine commented thati ad been most complimentary 25X1C
regarding the Agency's efforts I land Sourwine said he would
appreciate our opinion as to the wisdom as to the Subcommittee's allowing him
to engage in some travel on a limited basis. He said that thus far the Sub-
committee has kept under wraps.
