Approved For Release 2006"41Y17' J 09808001100100075-7 2U JUL. 1979 Mr.. Thomas K. Latimer, Staff Director House Select Committee on Intelligence Room 11-405, Capitol Washington, D. C. 20515 Dear Mr. Latimer: [::] Enclosed are summaries of the cases I briefed you on 11 July 1978. Copies are also being furnished to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. II You may recall that the reason for raising this matter with you is a possibility that a recently retired CIA employee may, notwithstanding the material's dated nature , expose this material either inadvertently or by design to the media. According to CIA records the Pennington and Wiley materials were available to both the Rockefeller Commission and the Church Committee. The Jay Kennedy material did not surface until after the completion of the Rockefeller Com- mission, Church Committee, and Pike Committee investigations and thus were not made available for external review. For your additional information, a portion of the Kennedy files which relates to Dr. Martin Luther King has been reviewed by representatives of the Department of Justice and has been set aside awaiting review by the I-louse Select Committee on Assassinations. The files pertaining to these cases are available for review by representatives of your Committee upon request. Sincerely, 1. no nuourr, "* Director of Security Enclosures -;,y; ~1 4..,. c.1 Les JZ L 79 Distribution: Original - Addressee ~l - OLC w/o encl.
