17. 1 1 LIAISON Bob Beckel, White House
staff, called to discuss further the handling of the_reauest for declassification
of the testimony of Senators Birch Bayh (D., Ind.) and Barry Goldwater
(R., Ariz.) before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on U. S.
intelligence activities in Panama. I repeated my suggestions of the
previous day and he said they were in line with his thinking and said
he would like to have a meeting in the White House later this afternoon.
It was arranged to have it at 4:00 p.m., after the 3:00 Legislative
Liaison meeting. Subsequently, in the company of DDO/ 25X1
LA Division, we met with Bill Lynck, DEA, Phil Jordan, DOS, Hunter
Estep, State Department, and Beckel to discuss this matter. I provided
Admiral Robert Inman, D/NSA, with a copy of a blind version of LA
Division's memo and he said it reflected his views and I again recommended
that Beckel consider recommending to the Senate Select Committee on
Intelligence that they draft up a Micronesia-type report rather than issue
a sanitized version of the transcript because our end results in the latter
case would be very insubstantial and perhaps mis-leading. Beckel
said he would be dealing with Bill Miller, Staff Director of the Select
Committee, and said he might like to call upon me to see Senators
Bayh and Goldwater.
18. I ILIAISON Mike O'Neil, Chief Counsel,
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence called in follow-up
of his inquiry yesterday on a trip overseas
O'Neil. advised that the Soviet Bloc portion of the trip was off.
