Mr. McCone described the meeting as very successful, stating that every point in his memorandum was raised, discussed, and accepted. Specifically, the President agreed to support legislation penalizing disclosures; to re-examine PFIAB; to convene a breakfast meeting with the bipartisan Congressional leadership on the committee structure; and to advocate the notion of PFIAB reporting to the select committees. McCone stressed that his remarks about morale were his own and that the Director might well have a different. McCone said that he extolled the virtues of Colby and the Agency. He said that the President asked many questions about the functions of USIB and DIA. McCone was clearly quite pleased with the way things went, stating that his trip had been quite worthwhile. He- predicted real benefits. He described the only sour note as follows: General Scowcroft told McCone that his name: was legendary in the United States Air Force. McCone said that it was hard to realize that he had left the Air Force 23 years ago. Scowcroft reflected and said that he had been a first lieutenant at that time. They parted, feeling older.
