OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Friday - 27 December 1974
CJA INTERNAL USE ONLY
1. (Secret - LLM) Called Bill Cochrane, Staff Director, Senate
Rules and Administration Committee, concerning a delicate case that
had been referred to us by Senator Howard W. Cannon's (D. , Nev.
office. Cochrane suggested we either speak to Chester Sobsey or
Frank Krebs of Senator Cannon's personal staff. (I did not go into
the details of the case or mention her name. )
A call was placed to Sobsey.
2. (Unclassified - GLC) John Goldsmith, Senate Armed Services
Committee staff, called to ask if we could readily obtain from our records
the number of times in the past Congress in which the Director or a senior
Agency officer has met with the full Senate Armed Services Committee or
the CIA Subcommittee. He said he thought this information would be useful
for them to have in view.of the current controversy of legislative oversight
and he said it would take some digging for them to get this out of their records,
I told Goldsmith we kept a record of such briefings and it would not be difficult
for us to provide him with a list, which I did. later in the day.
Goldsmith also asked if we had any luck in tracking down anything
on the ad he mentioned to me several days ago. I told him we
were working on t is and as far as we could determine the ad was not connected
with the Agency in any way. We are still checking on this to see if we have
any information about the organization or the purpose of the ad which was directed
at former CIA., NSA and DIA employees.
3. (Unclassified - GLC) By way of follow up to his discussions with
egarding the recent New York Times article alleging that CIA
maintained 10, 000 files on American citizens, I called Jim Kronfeld, Staff
Counsel, House Government Operations Subcommittee on Foreign Operations
and Government Information. The Director later talked with Chairman
Moorhead on this subject. See Memo for the Record.
