STAT 6. LIAISON Called Jim Guirard,
on the staff of Senator Russell B. Long (D., La.), to tell him
that it was impossible for us to arrange for delivery of thelI ST
STAT Ion the Soviet Union to his home instead of his o ice.
uirar said this presented no great problem and there then
ensued a lengthy discussion of "sematic infiltration," which
Guirard believes to be a major problem in U.S. foreign policy.
5 1 H 1 7? LIAISON Along with I ST
STAT , atten e a rie ing of the Subcommittee on
International Organizations, House International Relations Committee,
presented by 1: 1 EA Di vision./I:?T
(See Memorandum For the Record.)
LIAISON Took a call from
Judy Schneider,, on the staff of the Senate Select Committee on
A Ethics
ST who asked to come to Headquarters on
Monday, 7 August to review Agency material previously shown to the
Ethics Committee staff. Arrangements were made.
STA 8.
STAT 9? THIRD AGENCY Called Mr. William
W. Moss, ie Archivist at the John F. Kennedy Library in Waltham,
Massachusetts to discuss a request by the House International
Relations Subcommittee on International Organizations for Agency
material on file at the Library. We agreed that the material
would be sent to the Agency for appropriate sanitization and that
it would be made available to the Subcommittee here at Headquarters
rather than at the Library.
STAT 10: LIAISON Met with Chairman
Lucien N. Nedzi (D., Mich.), House Joint Committee on the
Library, and discussed the compartmented clearance status of
Dr. Charles Sheldon, an employee of the Library of Congress.
Chairman Nedzi could see no need for Dr. Sheldon's access to
compartmented intelligence based on the need as shown in NASA's
letter to the Agency dated 15 June 1978. He suggested we check
further since Dr. Sheldon may require the clearances for other.
Congressional purposes. He also thought it best that we talk to
him personally before his clearances are lifted.-
I then discussed the new Guidelines for issuing clearances.
Mr. Nedzi was supportive. I mentioned that we would be looking at
the group of 56 Library of Congress employees who have DIA
clearances as consultants work totally .for DIA and are segregated
from the rest of the employees. Mr. Nedzi said he was very familiar
with this arrangement and did not feel that it presented any
problems.

and would be in our hands tomorrow.

a Legislative ssistan to Representative Richard Schulze (R., Pa.).

8. LIAISON Jim Bush, House Permanent Select
Committee on Intelligence staff, called about biological warfare
information he had requested a week earlier. I told him it was
being sent to him this day.
I asked Bush if he could advise us as to whether it would be
useful to seek Representative Bill D. Burlison's (D., Mo.) help
in getting the House Appropriations Committee mark on the
Intelligence Community Staff changed. Bush suggested that it might
be counterproductive and that our best bet would be to appeal to
the Senate.
