Sanitized - Approved For-ReTease : CIA-RD
Mrs.. Richard 'Naarknesa telephoned to say that s ,, w
recently as a team did a story for the SAURDAY EVEN! PCB on the CIA, are
now working on a story regarding "Government Security." She said they are
not identifying particular cases by naming the individuals concerned, but are
securing the stories of individuals who have been involved in government
security investigations, and also are asking government agencies concerned
for information on these specific cases,
Mrs. Rarkness said that former Senator 'Derry Gain had referred to them
25X1A9aa who sags she left the CIA last July following an interro-
gation period covering some several weeks. We. Harkness asks that we furnish
her with what we can regarding the AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII case. I told her I would look into 25X1 A
the matter and call her back.
It is my belief that there are two guiding elements here, (1) Cm does
not disclose names or information on any one involved in a so-called security
case; (2) as a matter of policy CIA does not inform the press the reason
for any employee's departure from the CIA payroll.
Unless there is disagreement, I contemplate informing Mrs. Harkness that
we are very sorry but we do not make public the reason why ceased 25X1 APa
to be a CIA employee. I
