6. LEGISLATION Stopped by the Senate
Judiciary Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights to discuss pending criminal
justice information legislation, S. 2008, with Doug Lea, Counsel. Ile gave
me a draft of certain modifications that the staff had made to the bill and

25X1 7. LIAISON Took a call from Ecl Schallert,
in the office of Representative Les Aspin (D. , Wis..),who inquired about the
validity of statistics of the 1969 Soviet Civ .l. Defense Manual. This Manual
asserted that Soviet civil defense techniques were so good that in a. massive
nuclear attack on Soviet cities, only 3 to 4 percent of the urban population.
25X1A would be killed. Schallert asked if we could verify these statistics.. After
checking with who called OSR, I told Schal.lert that. we felt
these figures were definitely propaganda and that the actual figures would
be higher. However, we had not conducted a study to determine the actual
figure, but that he could probably get these statistics from the targeting
people at the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

on the Administration's Action Plan on Intelligence. Clark's name had been
given me by Russ Rourlc,-, also of Marsh's office, whom I. called earlier..- Clark

with the leadership on an issue-by-issue basis. This inforrn.ation was reported
to General Wilson's task force.
