5. Met with Mr. William Shattuck, House
Judiciary ommi ee, who to13m 7 natter he has no documentation
it is his understanding that the matter relating to overpayment
of combat pay during the perio and others served with the Agency
has been resolved within the Department of Army. Until he hears further
he has closed his file on the matter which he had been handling for
Representative Henderson (D. , N. C. ). I thanked Mr. Shattuck for the
information and told him we would close out also.
7. Met briefly with Mr. Charles Ducander,
Executive uirec or and ie Counsel,- House Committee on Science and
Astronautics, who told me that Chairman Miller was quite satisfied with
last week's briefing. Mr. Ducander noted in passing that he was somewhat
surprised that the Chairman had requested a briefing before going off on
this particular trip to Europe. Chairman Miller is not expected to return
to the city until late this month. Mr. Duckett has been advised.
8. Met briefly with Representative
Melvin Price . , Ill. who gave me his personal apologies for not
attending the Intelligence Subcommittee briefing on Monday. He noted that
as much as he would have enjoyed the Agency briefing, the long weekend and
celebrations in Italy were very enjoyable. He expects that the Subcommittee
will be coming out again and he will be with them at that time.
9. Met briefly with Representative William
Bray who told me that the Intelligence Subcommittee of House Armed Services
had had a good meeting this morning with Ray C-l ine at State Department and
he expects that they will continue these meetings as rapidly as possible with
the various elements of the intelligence community. Mr. Bray very much
enjoyed his visit to the Agency.

1. I picked up Representatives O. C. Fisher
(D. , Texas) and William ray R., Ind.), and Mr. John R. Blandford,
Chief Counsel, House Armed Services Committee, and brought them to
Headquarters on different occasions during the morning. Representative
Bray expressed the opinion that such meetings with members of the
Armed Services Committees should have been started years ago.
Mr. Blandford characterized the morning meeting as having demonstrated
the Committee members great interest in the Agency.
2. Met with Mr. Alex Schnee, office of
Congressional Relations, Department of State, who told me it was his
understanding that a compromise had been agreed upon between Senator
Stennis (D., Miss.) and Senator Symington (D., Mo. )
3. In a chance meeting with Miss Dorothy
Fosdick, National Security an International Operations Subcommittee
staff, Senate Committee on Government Operations, as she came off the
floor of the Senate during discussion of the Symington amendment to
restrict spending on Laos, Miss Fosdick told me that it appeared that
the compromise amendment limiting spending to $350 million with no
restrictions on bombing would carry.
