DIARY NOTES
DP LS
25 March 1958
1. Attended a luncheon for Mr. Lee Rankin, Solicitor General, along with General
Cabell, Larry Houston, Lyman Kirkpatrick, an Mr. Rankin appeared to 25X1A9a
be very friendly and offered to help us in any way that he could. During the course of
our luncheon he commented that Roger Fisher was leaving his staff shortly to teach at
the Harvard Law School.
2. Attended the opening session of the President's Conference on Occupational
Safety. The Office of Security had requested that I attend inasmuch as the President was
going to speak and they felt that some senior person should be present as well as the CIA
Safety Officer. This really isn't necessary since there are some 3, 000 people present;
in the future I think that it would be entirely satisfactory to accept the invitation without
actually attending the Conference.
In this connection, Mr.-accompanied me to the opening session. From
our conversation it was quite evident that he had not read the program nor looked upon
the Conference in terms of what benefit the Agency as a whole might get out of it. There
were several "workshops" from which personnel such as the Emergency Planning Offi-
cer, members of the Medical Staff, etc., might have derived a great deal of information.
Since Mr~=was" not even familiar with the program he, of course, had given no
attention to this aspect of it. While admitting that our accident rate was about the low-
est in Government he stated that one death would make us considerably higher than the
remainder of governmental agencies, and I failed completely to understand his support-
ing explanation of this statement.
Note: Paragraph 2. was extracted in its entirety and sent to Mr. (DD/S -
