committee on National Security and International Operations staff, about her
- y
1 July 1971 note concerning articles published by Dino Frescobaldi. I told
Miss Fosdick that on the basis of a review of Frescobaldi's articles over the
past three months our people would not rate this material very highly, adding
that much better work is available in the Western press. I advised that
Frescobaldi's work is based primarily on the Cairo rumor market, Sadat's
public speeches, and articles carried in Beirut newspapers. Under the
circumstances we would think that the Subcommittee would not want to be
in a position of having his articles translated and circulated. Miss Fosdick
said this was precisely what she wanted to know, but asked if we would
25X1A translate one or two of Frescobaldi's better articles for her own perusal.
5. Talked to Ralph Preston, Staff Assistant, House
Appropriations Committee, who said Chairman Mahon wanted to meet with the
Director for no more than an hour on Friday, 9 July, and discuss the Director's
trip and have a "philosophical" chat about the "Pentagon papers"--not just the
security aspect but their impact on U. S. policy and the U. S. leaders involved.
He said Representative Frank Bow would be out of town but Representative
George Andrews would attend and possibly Representative William Minshall.

that he had in mind just an informal chat with the Director, particularly about
his recent trip at 10:00 a. m. on Friday, 9 July. Regarding the "Pentagon papers"
Mahon said he realized the Director had been out of town and hadn't had a chance
to study the documents closely so it would be all right to bring someone else
who had, and not bother the Director with it.
Chairman Mahon expressed concern about the two bills just introduced
by Senators Cooper and McGovern (the first making intelligence information
available to the Congress, and the other requiring CIA funds appear in the
budget).
