10. I IDr. Allen, OER, called and expressed 25X1
concern as to how our contributions to the Joint Economic Committee studies
on Western Europe and Russia would be affected by the death of Leon Herman,
of the Libr ress, with whom Allen's people worked. Dr. Allen
said that a associated with a private firm, had contacted some of 25X1
the people working on this material and suggested that he and Agency repre-
sentatives get together with the Joint Economic Committee staff and discuss
the possibility of his working with us on these projects. I subsequentk5X1
discussed this situation wi ohn Stark Executive Director of the Joint
Economic Committee, advising him of contact with us and expressing 25X1
some concern about this kind of arrangement. I said that we would prefer
to deal with the Committee staff or a des' nated representative of the Library
of Congress on this. Stark thought approach premature and it was 25X1
agreed that we would get together with him to discuss this privately around
the middle of this week.
11. Winston Bryant, Legislative Assistant to 25X1
Senator John McClellan (D. , Ark. ), called and asked me to review with him the
thrust of our position on the Ervin bill, S.382,--which I did. Bryant said he
would be talking with Senator McClellan this afternoon about the bill. He
mentioned that Senator McClellan has a bill pending in the Judiciary Committee
which Senator Ervin is opposed to and I gather that he will be talking to
Senator Ervin about these two pieces of legislation in the very near future.
I asked Bryant if he knew whether any action is scheduled on S. 782. He
said he was not aware of anything specific with regard to that bill but added
a number of bills "are moving" in the Judiciary Committee.
12. I I Pat Holt, of the Senate Foreign Relations 25X1
Committee staff, called. He asked if the same briefin on Insurgency in Latin
America, which had been given to him b could be given to the 25X1
Western Hemisphere Subcommittee. He suggested a time of 10:00 a. m. on 16
June. Holt said he knew we did not like to "proliferate" our briefings of Sub-
committees and said that they were not asking that the Director give this briefing.
He felt tha was perfectly acceptable to them or anyone else who 25X1
could speak for the Agency. I told him I would check on this and be back in
touch.
