8. (Unclassified - GLC) Left for Representative Roman Pucinski
one of our "support packages" on the NSA matter.
9. (Unclassified - GLC) Picked up from the office of Representative
Dante B. Fascell a copy of a letter from Carl L. Libby, of the Tropical
Typewriter Service in Coral Gables, Florida, concerning the loan of a
typewriter to the Agency in 1964 which was never returned. We are checking
into this.
10. (Unclassified - GLC) Met with Representative Robert N. Giamo
and had an interesting talk with him. This was by way of follow up to a letter
Mr. Giamo's law partner, Arthur S. Sachs sent to Dr. Sherman Kent concerning
the NSA matter. Mr. Giamo said Sachs had mentioned his acquaintence with
Kent and his intention to write the Agency a letter indicating their support
and desire to be of assistance if possible. The Congressman underscored
this expression saying he would be happy to be of assistance to us. I thanked
Mr. Giamo for his expressions and added that while we were not requesting
anything, he might be interested in having, for reference purposes, a copy
of some of the more pertinent newspaper items on this subject. He said he
would very much appreciate this material and I left with him a copy of our
"support package. "
In an interesting aside, Mr. Giamo mentioned that he had recently
received a visit from a group of "peaceniks" all of whom had been courtesly
treated by him. Much to his surprise, one of these members later charged
that the Congressman had been rude and uncooperative. (This turned out to
be a university student from New Haven who was not even a constituent of
the Congressman and who had refused to identify herself when he asked for
her name and address.) This was of particular interest since Representative
Hastings Keith had mentioned an almost identical situation when I talked with
him last week.
11. (Unclassified - GLC) Herb Atkinson, Senate Armed Services
Committee staff, called to say they had received a letter addressed to
Dr. R. H. Edwin Espy, Secretary General of the Senate Council for CIA. The
letter bears a Calcutta postmark and no return address. Atkinson said he had
talked with Bill Darden about this and Darden instructed him not to open the
letter but to check this name with us. We are checking into this.
