Approved For ase 2003/01/29? CIA-RDP79M00467 00400020018-7 JOURNAL OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL Wednesday - 2 February 1972 1. (Secret - JMM) Bill Woodruff, Counsel, Senate Appropriations Committee, called to say Monday, 14 February, was out for the Defense Subcommittee and wondered whether the Director would be available on 15 or 16 February. I said he was committed to the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy on the 16th, so this was out, and we tried to avoid briefings two days running wherever possible. I asked Woodruff whether the Appro- priations briefing could be limited to the morning only, but he said he couldn't promise this. . I said I would be. back in touch after consulting the Director. 2. (Secret - JMM) Ed Braswell, Chief Counsel, Senate Armed Services Committee, called to ask who was "policing" the $350 million ceiling on expenditures in Laos. I said I thought the State Department, but would confirm this. After consulting with Chuck Briggs, OPPB, I called back to say that the White House had indeed designated the State Department as the responsible agency in this matter. 3. (Internal Use Only - JMM) Called Representative Barry Goldwater, Jr.- (R., Calif.) reminding him of his recent conversation with Colonel. White and inviting him to come out for a breakfast at his convenience. He said he would be away until the 16th, but would call us thereafter. 4. (Secret - JMM) After consulting with the Director, confirmed with Bill Woodruff, Counsel, Senate Appropriations Committee, the Director's appearance for a world roundup briefing at 10 a. m. on Tuesday, 15 February. 5. (Internal Use Only - JMM) The Director told me of his conversation with Representative Jamie L. Whitten (D., Miss.) when it was agreed that Whitten would visit the Agency for breakfast on Thursday, 10 February. I will call Whitten's office to confirm arrangements to p'.ck him up at 8:10 a. M. on that day.
