OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Thursday - 21 June 1973
1. George Argeris, Acting General
Counsel, USIA, called to discuss the positions of our respective agencies
to S. Con. Res. 23 which establishes a Joint Committee to oversee CIA
and USIA. USIA will oppose the bill. I noted that we concurred in the
objections made by USIA; however, we were making no recommendations as
we considered this a matter which the Congress can best determine. I
added that we were noting in our reply certain basic defects in the bill.
2. ( ) Jim Woolsey, Senate Armed Services
Committee staff, called to compare notes on the status of the so-called
Dean papers. He said he had heard nothing further from Sam Dash, Chief
Counsel, Senator Ervin's Select Committee on Presidential Campaign
Activities, in response to his offer to get together with him and pass on to
him the recommendations of the intelligence community regarding the
sensitivity of certain parts of the "Hoover Report. " I told him that as a
follow up to the Directors response to Senator Ervin's letter Mr. Houston
had been contacted by George Murphy, of the Joint Atomic Energy Committee
staff, who has custody of the original "Hoover Report" for the Select Com-
mittee and Mr. Houston and other representatives of the intelligence community
had noted on this copy those parts of the report which should not be published.
Woolsey said he was glad to hear this had been accomplished and commented
he also had a call in to Mr. Houston on this subject.
3.1 Made an appointment to see Senator Milton
Young at 9:30 tomorrow morning in response to his request.
