Mr. William German
-Executive Editor
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
901 Mission Street
San Francisco, CA 94103
Dear Bill:
~' attention has been invited to the 30 January 1985 "briefing" section
of the CHRONICLE entitled "What's Wrong with U.S. Intelligence Agencies?"
Had the CHRONICLE taken the time to determine if CIA was responding to
the two critical articles the section contained, it would have received the
attached items. One is my response to Allen Goodman's article, which will
appear in the next issue of FOREIGN POLICY. The other is Director Casey's
response to John Horton which appeared in the Washington POST on 31 January
1985.
I hope that you will give these two Agency rebuttals the same
prominence in the CHRONICLE you gave to the misleading Goodman and Horton
articles themselves.
Sincerely,
George ~Y. Lauder 1-
Director, Public Affairs
