5. (Secret - JGO) Met With Mr. Ralph Preston, House
Appropriations Committee staff, who advised that a copy of the
Marsh report on Vietnam has been forwarded by the Chairman to
Representative Gerald Ford (R., Mich.). A copy for the Agency
will be available in the morning.
6. (Unclassified - JGO) Delivered to the office of
Representative William Murphy (D., Ill.) a China map portfolio.
8. (Confidential -JMM) Called Representative William E.
Minshall (R. , Ohio), of the Defense Subcommittee of House Appropriations
Committee, in response to his query at the Director's briefing on 3 and 5
February regarding the Soviet T-62 tank. I told Minshall this tank, which
first appeared in 1961, had probably been in development for some five years.
Minshall said he was much concerned about the foul up in the American tank
program and he would like further details, particularly performance character-
istics, about the Soviet T-62 program for comparison. I told him we would 25X1
have the answer in a few days (which Mr.1f OSR is preparing).
