MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD
SUBJECT: Conversation with the Secretary of Defense,
14 July 1978
1. Admiral Hanson indicated that there were two items that I
had asked about at -the. last meeting which he had received responses
on just before this meeting began.
a. Admiral Murphy had agreed that steps should be taken
not to reactivate the clearances for of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee. There was a little vagueness in
the way this was worded. Before I sign the letter to Sparkmanz,
I'd like to have someone check with Murphy and make sure he
agrees on the way we are going to effect this; i.e_, will
Defense send a letter also indicating that they will not continue
his Top Secret clearance if I send one saying I won't continue
his codeword clearances.
b. There was agreement that our Legislative Counsel-.shau!ld
handle clearances for all congressional staffers' Let's.gca-
ahead and issue that one..
