She said that would be fine. 17. (Secret - TFI ) LIAISON Jack Lawn, FBI, called saying that staff members of the House Select Committee on Assassinations were bothered by the third agency rule and could not understand why, if they are going to see all documents, they cannot look at all documents in possession of a particular agency, whether that agency's documents or another agency's. He asked for our position on this matter stating that the Bureau was willing to allow committee staffers to read certain documents located elsewhere but wanted to reserve some documents for reading at the Bureau only. I told him we had not had a problem in this area as yet, but that if confronted we would probably try to play the role of a broker in obtaining the permission of the tlizrd agency for review of the documents by staffers and in general be as cooperative as possible within limits. 18.
