OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Monday - 5 February 1973
1. Talked to Ed Braswell, Chief Counsel,
Senate Armed Services Committee, who said that:
b. Re the Finney article on the future U. S. role in Laos in
the event of a cease-fire, Braswell pointed out that since congress-
ional support for operations in Laos had been pegged to the war
in Vietnam, now that we had a cease-fire there we couldn't expect
congressional approval for continuing our programs in Laos.

2. I I Met with Art Kuhl, Chief Clerk, Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, who gave me a copy of a letter dated 5 February
to the Chairman from James B. Rhoads, Archivist of the United States. The
letter was originally drafted by this office to provide a record for the Committee
to backstop the declassification and transfer of certain OSS documents to the
Committee. This letter finalizes recently established procedures for transfer
of documents out of the Agency through the Archivist. Kuhl also expressed his
appreciation for the quick response to Carl Marcy's, Staff Director of the.
Committee, request for this documentation. See Journal of 1 February 1973.
Special Assistant for Information Control, has been advised.
