Approved For Release 2004/09/09 : CIA-RDP96-00788RO01100060002-3 Proposed letter form Congressman Rose (D-NC) to Dr. Ruth Davis (D/USDRE/AT) Dear Ruth; I have recently had occasion to become acquainted with some research in the area of paranormal phenomena, specifi- cally that relating to remote viewing. Clearly, while this phenomenon might well result in opportunities for the collec- tion of intelligence otherwise denied us, we first have the duty to learn what the USSR is doing in this area so we may know how to secure our own classified materials from this very unique source of surveillance. I recommend therefore, that the Department of Defense undertake those efforts deemed necessary and appropriate to investigate remote viewing and other, related phenomena. As we continue this research it will be well to remem- ber that remote viewing may have the potential for the inva- sion of the'public's right to privacy. We will want to take every institutional safeguard to assure that right to privacy. Approved For Release 2004/09/09 : CIA-RDP96-00788RO01100060002-3
