NOTE TO; Director of Central Intelligence
Central Intelligence Agency
Office of the Deputy Director for Intelligence
Deputy Director for Intelligence
Judge Clark asked Secretary Weinberger to
get in touch with you about releasing more
classified intelligence on Soviet CW and BW
capabilities in response to a letter from
Senator Mattingly. The Senator states that
more such information is needed to salvage
the Administration's CW program on the Hill.
This is the first such request since our
recent sessions on public diplomacy. This
is a good test case inasmuch as an enormous
amount of information already has been
declassified and made publicly available.
There have been two major White papers issued
by State (one of which is essentially a
declassified SNIE) and a third is unclassified
testimony presented by this Directorate to the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee earlier this
year on the entire Soviet CW program.
I think you should tell the Secretary and
Judge Clark that a great deal already is
available and there is no need to release
any more. lr&-- Grrc- c... - Ant-4, [a
