OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Friday - 30 January 1970
1. (Confidential -'GLC) In connection with a query which the
Director of Personnel received from the Department of State regarding
Senator Peter Dominick's bill (S. 939) to provide for a U. S. foreign
corps, I contacted Mr. Steve Wexler, on the staff of the Subcommittee
on Education of the Senate Committee on Labor and Public Welfare,
and Mr. William Young, on the staff of Senator Claiborne Pell (D., R. I. ),
who is Chairman of the Subcommittee. I advised both Wexler and Young
that we were following up on what we understood to be a query from Pell
to State Department witnesses (Howard Mace and Joseph Toner) at
hearings on this bill yesterday to ascertain whether the Agency concurred
in State's objection to this legislation. I indicated that we were reviewing
the State Department's position on S. 939 and would be in touch with the
Senator and the Subcommittee. I added, however, there was tentative
feeling that this was a matter of primary interest and concern to the
Department of State.
The Office of Personnel is formulating an Agency position on
S. 939.
2. (Internal Use Only - LLM) Mr. Robert Hull, Department of
State, called to discuss statements in a proposed letter from Mr. Macomber
to Chairman Fulbright, Senate Foreign Relations Committee, comparing
the major benefit provisions of the Foreign Service Retirement system
with the CIA retirement system and the Civil Service system as it applies
to FBI personnel. In response to his question I told him the statements
relating to CIA provisions were accurate.
Hull also gave me further background on State's appearance before
the Pell Subcommittee on Education on S. 939, U. S. Foreign Service Corps.
(See Memo for Record.) 25X1
3. (Internal Use Onl - JGO) Delivered to the office of Senator
Charles Percy (R.,
will be meeting with Senator Percy on Tuesday,
was not available on two of the individuals.
