13. Together with John Warner and (
met with William Hogan, Counsel, Intelligence Subcommittee, house Arme
Services Committee, and reviewed with him the series of discussions with
X th Department of Justice representatives on the Agency's sources and meth
roposed legislation and the associated criminal code revision sections. In
brief, Hogan will await Agency guidance on such agreement as can be reache
between the Agency and Justice on the sections of discussion. Although the
overall prospect for favorable consideration' of this type of legislation on the
floor of the House is not the best, Hogan does not feel that this would precluc
necessarily Committee consideration and approval of such measures as may
be finally agreed to with Justice.
14. 1 Called Ralph Malvik, OMB, and inqui
as to whether any agencies had reacted to the provision sponsored by Senator
James L. Buckley (D., N. Y.) among the recent amendments to the Element
f/and Secondary Education Act of 1965. The provision would cut off Federal
funds from any educational institution which allows any outsider access to
25) 1C records without the express permission of the student or parent.
Malvik said he a recei
25X1 C no reactions. He was aware that Senator uc ey is considering amendment
since his provision is too broad, and he encouraged our efforts to attempt to
come under the provision of a general exemption. He doubted, however, tha
any change would be made to allow Government agencies access without
express permission.
15. Called Jim Kronfeld, Staff Counsel,
House Government Operations Subcommittee on Foreign Operations and
L, tovernment Information, to determine the current status of H. R. 16373,
the right of privacy bill. He said the bill was scheduled for floor vote on
Wednesday of next week. He said that as far as he knows Representative
Bella S. Abzug (D., N, Y.) Will introduce her amendment to knock out the
Agency's specific exemption, He still feels confident that Chairman William
S. Moorhead (D. , Pa.), flgpr manager of the bill, will be able to defeat her.
Kronfeld suggested that we provide material giving arguments to support
the Agency exemption. We discussed the possibility of the Abzug amendrpen
being approved; im agreed we should prepare an exemption for Intelligence
Sources and Methods, to be used as a fall-back. Kronfeld felt that
Representative John N. Erlenborn (R. , Ill. )_ was the best one to introduce
this amendment, and he suggested that I contact Steve Daniels, Erlenborn's
Counsel on the full. Committee.
