Margo Carlisle, in the office of
Senator James McClure (R. , Idaho), called to request a briefing for
the Senator alone on the status of the SALT negotiations. I told her
we could provide a briefing on the r' rc but that:. I Soviet the status of the negotiations and the status ~ of the violations were out
of our charter; we are reporters of the facts and not interpreters of
U. S. policy. On this basis, we scheduled a briefing by Mr. Duckett:,
DDS&T, at 11:00, Monday 2 June, in room 460 Old. Senate Office
Building with the understanding that this would. be for background use
for the Senator only and not for attribution and not for public use to the
extent that it was classified.

7? I I Received a call from Ron Tammen,. of ,Senator
Proxmire 's sta, regarding arrangements for Carl. Ducketts briefing of the
Proxmire Subcommittee of Senate Appropriations on tl~ft
nz
on 4 June. Tammen Mentioned the full Committee was being invited but no
personal staff would be permitted to sit in. He said. there would be two members
of the Majority staff and two members of the Minority staff present (I wi_II get
the names of these individuals so their clearances can be checked). Tamxinien
also said he would like to know the format of Duckett's presentation so they
could be preparing questions for the members. He also asked if the-re was any-
possibility of sanitizing the transcript of the session. After checking with
Duckett I told Tam.me.n that the bulk of the significant information in the briefing
is from sensitive sources and to try to sanitize the transcript would leave the
record with erroneous impressions. Tammen said the Chairman will ask the
question about sanitization in any event and Duckett can respond to it at the tirrie,
