Visited with Bill Cresswell, Administrative Assistant to Senator John C. Stennis (D., Miss.), and reviewed with him certain aspects of the personnel case which he is interested in which had not been brought to his attention by the employee concerned. Cresswell seemed to be completely openminded and appeared to appreciate the problem this case posed from an Agency viewpoint. I told him that hope- fully with reasonable approaches on both sides some solution which was acceptable to the Agency and to the employee could be worked out. I told Cresswell I would keep him informed on developments on the case. Cresswell apparently has received strong family representations on the employee's behalf, but appears to be satisfied with our approach at this time. In response to a request from WH Division, checked with officers of the Senate and with the Travel Desk, Department of State, concerning the :reported travel of Senator Mark Hatfield (R. , Ore.) to Costa Rica.
