5. (Unclassified - GLC) Mr. Briggs called regarding a telephone
call he had received from Mr. Louis Fisher, GGR Division, Congressional
Research Service, Library of Congress. Fisher raised several questions
with Briggs about the Agency's budget and the handling of funds generally.
Briggs gave him responses of an unclassified nature and referred him to the
provisions of the National Security Act and the CIA Act with respect to Agency
authorities and requirements. Fisher also asked him about a $115, 000 item
that appeared in an FY 74 budget appendix. Briggs gave me the answer to
this question and asked if I would call Fisher back since his interest seemed
to concern our relations with the Congress as well as purely budgetary
matters. I attempted to reach Fisher but he had left for the day. I will try
him again tomorrow.
6. (Confidential - JGO) Received a call from Herb Roback, Staff
Director, House Government Operations Committee, who said that he noted
that the information concerning Southern Air ransport in today's press is
substantially the same as the information given him over a week ago. I
told him there had been no further change but that I expect that within the
coming week to ten days we should see a more definitive resolution. Roback
asked me if I could come by later in the day to review a file given him by
Representative Frank Horton , senior Republican member of the Committee.
He said the file does not relate primarily to us but that he hoped we might
be able to provide some guidance as to further action that might be taken by
Representative Horton in the matter.
7. (Internal Use Only - JGO) Picked up a memorandum brief from 25X1
Bernice Kalinowski, Personal Secretary to Frank Slatinshek, House Armed
Services Committee staff, concerning the claim of
a s e wouicL appreciate comments on a several items marked in e
memorandum.
