The Honorable W. Sterling Cole

Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Cole:
The matter discussed in your letter of l4 July 1953?is of
continuing concern to the intelligence community. As you know, the fullest
possible exploitation was made of the Fuchs case in 1950. In addition to
the information resulting from the interrogation, a thorough investiga-
tion was made by the Atomic Energy Commission to establish the areas of
knowledge to which Fuchs lad access-and the thinking and planning current
in those areas at the time of his access. With each new U.S. development
or advance, a new examination is made to determine what information re-
lated to this might have been available to Fuchs. The known and possible
disclosures of Fuchs are always considered in interpreting intelligence
information on the U.S.S.R. Atomic Energy activities.

Should the Committee have specific information which would in-
dicate that further interviews would be of value, it would be helpful to
