5. (Unclassified - RJK) BRIEFING Joseph Overton, Legislative
Assistant, on the staff of Representative Barry Goldwater, Jr. (R. , Calif. ),
called to request a briefing for the Representative on aspects of the 'foreign
and internal policies of the People's Republic of China. He requested the
briefing tale place on either the 23rd or 24th of September in the late
STATINTL afternoon. I gold him I would look into the matter and let him know whether
the briefing could be arranged. OCI, has been advised and
sees no problem with responding to the request.
6. (Unclassified - DFM) LEGISLATION Received a call. from
Bill Jones, INR/State Department, regarding the Agency's letter to OMB
on H. R. 1311. I told Jones that we had not determined how we would
respond to State's request, but that I would raise the issue withi
on his return.
STATINTL
7. (Unclassified DFM) LEGISLATION Called Bill Nichols,
General Counsel, OMB, regarding the multi-faceted issue of garnishment:
/of Federal employees' wages. Nichols said a final determination had been
made that Civil Service Commission would draft regulations for all agencies
and that these would be issued following the expected signing of the Executive
Order next week. OMB also expects to have the Justice Department's draft
legislation cleared next week. Nichols believes the only way to fully protect
the Agency's interests in these cases would be to get an exemption in the
STATINTL Act itself, and we agreed that this would be impossible in the present political
climate. Lacking that, he feels the Agency must stress the importance of
this issue to its employees o that hopefully the garnishment
issue will not arise.

8. (Unclassified - BAA) INTELLIGENCE BRIEFING Ed Rice,
Administrative Assistant to Representative Margaret Heckler (R., Mass. ),
called and asked if the briefing scheduled for the Congresswoman this
morning at 11:00 a. m. could be changed to later in the afternoon. After
checking with Mr. OCI, I notified Rice that our briefer would
be in their office at 3:00 p.m. today. This was fine with Rice.
