MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Secretary,


CIA Management Committee
SUBJECT "Family Jel'ie1s"

1. The purpose of this memorandum is to


forl'iard for your personal review summaries of activities
conducted either by or under the sponsorship of the
Office of Security in the past which in my opinion con-
flict with the provisions of the National Security Act
of 1947.
2. These activities cover the period from
March 1959 to date and represent as accurate a record
as is available in our files. Those activities which
took place prior to the date of my appointment as
Director of Security on 1 July 1964 have been developed
to a certain extent through the recollection of the
senior people in this Office who were involved or who
had knowledge of the activities at the time they
occurred. '
3. I have gone back to March 1959 because I
believe that the activities occurring since that time
still have a viable "flap potential" in that many of the
people involved, both Agency and non-Agency are still
alive and through their knowledge of the activity repre-
'sent a possible potential threat or embarrassment to the
Agency. I would be glad to provide clarification or an
explanation of any of these activities if desired. You
have my assurance that unless otherwise stated each of
these activities was approved by higher authority--the

00002

-I
L.- _
Director of Central Intelligence, the Deputy Director
of Central Intelligence, the Executive Director-
Comptroller, or the Deputy Director for Support.

2. Johnny Roselli -- The use of a member of the


Mafia in an attempt to assassinate Fidel Castro.
3. Project MOCKINGBIRD -- During the period from 12
March 1963 to 15 June 1963, this Office
installed telephone taps on two Washington-
based newsmen who were suspected of disclosing
classified information obtained from a variety
of governmental and congressional sources.
4. Yuriy Ivanovich Nosenko -- A KGB defector who from
the pe~idd 13 August 1965 to 27 October 1967
was confined in a specially constructed "jail"

for this period.
5. Various Surveillance and Support Activities --
These are briefly summarized and range from
the surveillance of newsmen to the provision
of specialized support of local police officials
in the Metropolitan area. I believe that each
one is self-explanatory and, therefore, no further
comment is needed here.
6. Equipment Support to Local Police -- Attached is a
list provided me by the Director of Logistics
(he will simply report these items in his
report) which we have provided local police in
the Metropolitan D. C. area over the past four
or five years on indefinite loan. During the
period when the Agency's installations in this
area appeared to be a target of dissident elements

a conscious decision was made by the Agency to


utilize the services of local police to repel
invaders in case of riot or dissension as
opposed to utilization of our GSA guards, who
are not trained in this type of activity. This
equipment has been issued over the years to
local police, principally Fairfax and Arlington
County Police Departments. I do not believe
that this is totally illegal under the provisions
of the National Security Act of 1947, but I am in-
cluding it since I am sure that it would be con-
sidered as such in light of the recent congressional
fuss over our police training activities.

SUBJECT: Johnny Roselli

In August 1960, Mr. Richard M. Bissell


1.
approached Colonel Sheffield Edwards to determine if
the Office of Security had assets that may assist in a
sensitive mission requiring gangster-type action. The
mission target was Fidel Castro.
2. Because of its extreme sensitivity, only a
small group was made privy to the project. The DCI was
briefed and gave his approval. Colonel J. C. King,
Chief, WH Division, was briefed, but all details were
deliberately concealed from any of the JMWAVE officials.
Certain TSD and Communications personnel participated
in the initial planning stages, but were not witting of
the purpose of the mission.
3. Robert A. Maheu, a cleared source of the
Office of Security, .was contacted, briefed generally on
the project, and requested to ascertain if he could
develop an entree into the gangster elements as the first
step toward accomplishing the desired goal.
4. Mr. Maheu advised that he had met one Johnny
Roselli on several.oc~isions while visiting Las Vegas.
He only knew him casually through clients, but was given
to understand that he was a high-ranking member of the
"syndicate" and controlled all of the ice-making machines
on the Strip. Maheu reasoned that, if Roselli was in
fact a member of the clan, he undoubtedly had connections
leading into the Cuban gambling interests. , .
S. Maheu was asked to approach Roselli, who knew
Maheu as a personal relati6ns executive handling domestic
and foreign accounts, and tell him that he had recently
been retained by a client who represented several inter-
national business firms which were suffering heavy financial
losses in Cuba as a result of Castro's action. They were
convinced that Castro's removal was the answer to their

l
problem and were willing to pay a price of $150,000
for its successful accomplishment. It was to be made
clear to Roselli that the United States Government was
not, and should not, become aware of this operation.
6. The pitch was made to Roselli on 14
September 1960 at the Hilton Plaza Hotel, New York City.
~Ir. James O'Connell, Office of Security, was present
during this meeting and was identified to Roselli as an
employee of Maheu. O'Connell actively served as Roselli's
contact until May 1962 at which time he phased out due
to an overieas assignment. His initial reaction was to
avoid getting involved, but through Maheu's persuasion,
he agreed to introduce him to a friend, Sam Gold, who
knew the "Cuban crowd." Roselli made it clear he did
not want any money for his part and believed Sam would
feel the same way. Neither of these individuals were
ever paid out of Agency funds.
7. During the week of 25 September, Maheu was
introduced to Sam who was staying at the Fontainebleau
Hotel, Miami Beach. It was several weeks after his
meeting with Sam and Joe,. who was identified to him as
a courier operating between Havana and Miami, that he
saw photographs of both of these individuals in the
Sunday supplemental "Parade." They were identified as
Momo Salvator~,Giancani and Santos Trafficant, respectively.
Both were on the list of the Attorney General's ten most-
wanted men. The former was described as the Chicago
chieftain of the Cosa Nostra and successor to Al Capone,
and the latter, the Cosa Nostra boss of Cuban operations.
Maheu called this office immediately upon ascertaining
this information.
8. In discussing the possible methods of
accomplishing this mission, Sam suggested that they not
resort to firearms but, if he could be furnished some
type of potent pill, that could be placed in Castro's food
or drink, it would be a much more effective operation.
Sam indicated that he had a prospective nominee in the
person of Juan Orta, a Cuban official who had been receiving
kick-back payments from the gambling interests, who still had
access to Castro, and was in a financial bind.

SEGI.,: T
Eyr . fiNLY
9. TSD was requested to produce six pills of
high lethal content.
10. Joe delivered the pills to Orta. After
several weeks of reported attempts, Orta' apparently got
cold feet and asked out of the assignment. He suggested
another candidate who made several attempts without
success.
11. Joe then indicated that Dr. Anthony Verona,
one of the principal officers in the Cuban Exile Junta, had
become disaffected with the apparent ineffectual progress
of the Junta and was willing to handle the mission through
his own resources.
12. He asked, asa prerequisite to the deal, that
he be given $10,000 for organizational expenses and requested
$1,000 worth of communications equipment.
13. Dr. Verona's potential was never fully
exploited, as the project was canceled shortly after the
Bay of Pigs episode. Verona was advised that the offer
was withdrawn, and the pills were retrieved.
14. Of significant interest was an incident
which involved a request levied by Sam upon Maheu .
.,'
At the height of the project negotiations,
Sam expressed concern about his girlfriend,
Phyllis McGuire, who he learned was getting
much attention from Dan Rowan while both were
booked at a Las Vegas night club. Sam asked
Maheu 'to put a bug in Rowan's room to deter-
mine the extent of his intimacy with Miss
McGuire. The technician involved in the assign-
ment was discovered in the process, arrested,
and taken to the Sheriff's office for questioning.
He called Maheu and informed him that he had
been detained by the police. This call was made
in the presence of the Sheriff's personnel.,
Subsequently, the Department of Justice
announced its intention to prosecute Maheu along

000:14
with the technician. On 7 February 1962,
the Director of Security briefed the Attorney
General, Robert Kennedy, on the circumstances
leading up to Maheu's involvement in the
wiretap. At our request, prosecution was
dropped.

15. In May 1962, Mr. William Harvey took over


as Case Officer, and it is not known by this office
whether Roselli was used operationally from that point on.

16. It was subsequently learned from the FBI


that Roselli had been convicted on six counts involving
illegal entry into the United States. Our records do not
reflect the date of conviction, but it is believed to
have been sometime during November 1967.

17. On 2 December 1968, Roselli, along with


four other individuals, was convicted of conspiracy to
cheat members of the Friars Club of $400,000 in a rigged
gin rummy game.

18. Mr. Harvey reported to the Office of Security


of his contacts with Roselli during November and December
1967 and January 1968. It was his belief that Johnny
would not seek out the Agency for assistance in the deporta~
tion proceedings unless he actually faced deportation.
Roselli expressed confidence that he would win an appeal.

19. On 17 November 1970, Maheu called James


O'Connell, Roselli's first Case Officer, to advise that
Maheu's attorney, Ed Morgan, had received a call from a
Thomas Waddin, Roselli's lawyer, who stated that all
avenues of appeal had been exhausted, and his client now
faces deportation. Waddin indicated 'that, if someone did
not intercede on Roselli's behalf, he would make a complete
expose of his activities with the Agency.

20. On 18 November 1970, Mr. Helms was briefed


on the latest development in this case, and it was decided
that the Agency would not in any way assist Roselli. Maheu
was so advised of the Agency's position, and he was in

4 00015
SEC, T
f l~S DNLY
, • ' I ~

complete agreement with our stand. He further advised


that he was not concerned about any publicity as it
affected him personally should Roselli decide to tell
all.
21. Subsequently, Roselli or someone on his
behalf furnished Jack Anderson details of the operation.
Attached are two Anderson columns dealing with this
matter.
22. The last known residence of Roselli was the
Federal Penitentiary in Seattle, Washington.

PROJECT MOCKINGBIRD
----_.- --------- - - - - -

Project Mockingbird, a telepl10ne intercept activity, was conducted


between 12 March 1963 and 15 June 1963, and tar geted two Washington-
based newsrnen who, at the time, had been publishing news articles
based on, and frequently quoting, clas sified materials of this Agency
and others, including Top Secret and Special Intelligence.

Telephone intercept connections were installed at the newmen's


office and at each of their homes, for a total of 3. The connections
were established with the assistance of a telephone company official
who responded to a personal request by the Director of Security, Col.
Sheffield Edwards. Col. Edwards' authority for the activity was Mr.
John A. McCone, Director of Central Intelligence. The latter conducted
the activity in coordination with the Attorney General (Mr. Robert Kennedy),
the Secretary of Defense (Mr. Robert McNamara), and the Director of
the Defense. Intelligence Agency (Gen. Joseph Carroll)~ In addition to
Office of Security personnel directly involved in the intercepts and
research of materials acquired therefrom, only 3., other Agency
officials are on record as witting of the activity: the Deputy Director
of Central Intelligence (General Marshall S. Carter), the Inspector
General (Lyman Kirkpatrick) and the General Counsel. (Mr. Lawrence
Houston).

The intercept activity was particularly productive in identifying con-


tacts of the new smen, their method of operation and many of their sources
of information. For example, it was determined that during the period they
received data from 13 newsmen, 12 of whom were identified; 12 senators
and 6 members of Congress, all identified; 21 Congressional staff members,
of whom 11 were identified; 16 government employees, including a staff
member of the White House, members of the Vice President's office, an
A~sistant Attorney General, and other well-placed individuals. A number
of other sources were partfally or tentatively identified, but the short span
of the activity precluded positive identification. It was observed that through
these contacts the newsmen actually received more classified and official
data than they could use, and passed some of the stories to other newsmen
for release, establishing that many "leaks" appearing under other by-lines
were actually from the sources of the target newsmen.

Since the termination of Project Mockingbird, those materials related


to it which were retained, have been maintained under strict security access
of two Office of Security professionals.

SUBJECT: Yuriy Ivanovich Nosenko

Yuriy Ivanovich NosenkQ, an officer of the KGB,


defected toa representative of this Agency in Geneva,
Switzerland, on 4 February 1964. The responsibility for
his exploitation 1vas assigned to the then SR Division of
the Clandestine Service and he was brought to this country
on 12 February 1964. After initial interrogation by
representatives of the SR Division, he was moved to a safe-
house in Clinton, Maryland, from 4 April 1964 where he
was confined and interrogated until 13 August 1965 when
he was moved to a s:ecian y constructed "j ail" in a remote
wooded area atJ I The SR Division was convinced
that he was alspa ched agent but even after a long
period of hostile interrogation was unable to prove their
contention and he was confined at I lin an effort
to convince him to "confess."
This Office together with the Office of General
Counsel became intr~asingly concerned with the illegality
of the Agency's position in handling a defector under
these conditions for such a long period of time. Strong
representations were made to the Director (Mr. Helms) by
this Office, the Office of General Counsel, and the
Legislative Liaison Counsel, and on 27 October 1967, the
responsibility for Nosenko's further handling was transferred
to the Office of Security under the direction of the Deputy
Director of Central Intelligence, then Admiral Rufus Taylor.
Nosenko was moved to a comfortable safehouse in
the Washington area and was interviewed under friendly,
.sympa thetic conditions by his Security Case Officer, Mr.
Bruce Solie, for more than a year. It soon became
apparent that Nosenko was bona fide and he was moved to
more comfortable surroundings with considerable freedom
of independent movement and has continued to cooperate
fully with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and this
Office since that time. He has proven to be the most

the periods 6-9 October, 27 October-lO December 1971


and on 3 January 1972. In addition to physical sur-
veillance, an observation post was maintained in the
Statler Hilton Hotel where observation could be main-
tained of the building housing his office. The sur-
veillance was designed to determine Getler's sources
of classified information of interest to the Agency
which had appeared in a number of his columns.
D. CELOTEX II
At the direction of the DCI, surveillance was con-
ducted of Jack Anderson and at various times his "leg
men," Britt Hume, Leslie Whitten, and Joseph Spear,
from 15 February to 12 April 1972. In addition to the
physical surveillance, an observation post wa~ main-
tained in the Statler Hilton Hotel directly opposite
Anderson's office. The purpose of this surveillance
was to attempt to determine Anderson's sources for
highly classified Agency information appearing in his
syndicated columns.
E. BUTANE
At the direction of the DCI, a surveillance was
conducted on Victor L. Marchetti from 23 March to
20 April 1972. The purpose of this surveillance was
to determine his activities and contacts both with
Agency employees and other individuals in regard to
his proposed book and published magazine articles ex-
posing Agency operations.
II. POLICE SUPPORT
A. During 1969, 1970, and 1971, on several occasions,
the Intelligence Division of the Metropolitan Police
Department was provided a communications system to
monitor major anti-Vietnam war demonstrations in the
Washington area. This system consisted of a radio
receiver and an Agent at the Intelligence Division
Headquarters and several automobiles from the Washington
Field Office equipped with radio receivers and trans-
mitters and manned by two WFO Agents, as well as a
representative of the Intelligence Division, Metropolitan
Police Department. The benefit to the Agency was, that
the communications over this system were monitored at
the Headquarters Building to provide instant notice of
possible actions by the dissidents against Agency in-
stallations. '

B. During the period from 1968 to 1973, several
items of positive audio equipment consisting pri-
marily of clandestine transmitters and touch-tone
dial recorders were loaned to the Metropolitan
Police Department, Fairfax County, Virginia, Police
Department, Montgomery County, Maryland, Police
Department, New York City Police Department, and the
San Francisco, California, Police Department.
III. GENERAL SUPPORT
A. SRPOINTER
Since 1953, this office has operated a mail inter-
cept program of incoming and outgoing Russian mail
and, at various times, other selective mail at Kennedy
Airport in New York City. This operation included not
only the photographing of envelopes but also surrepti-
tious opening and photographing of selected items of
mail. The bulk of the take involved matters of inter-
nal security interest which was disseminated to the
Federal Bureau of Investigation. This program is now
in a dormant state pending a decision as to whether
the operation will. be continued or abolished.
B. AELADLE
For several years the Office of Security has pro-
vided support to Anatole Golitsyn, a Russian defector of
interest to the CI Staff. I

C. REDFACE I
In July 1970, this office made a surreptitious
entry of an office in Silver Spring, Maryland, occu-
pied by a former defector working under contract for
the Agency. This involved by-passing a contact and

sonic alarm system, entering a vault, and entering
a safe within the vault. The purpose of the opera-
tion was to determine whether the individual had
any unauthorized classified information in his
possession.
D. BUREAU OF NARCOTICS AND DANGEROUS DRUGS
In January 1971, the Director approved a request
from the Director, Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous
Drugs, to provide covert recruitment and security
clearance support to BNDD. This has been accomplished
through the medium of a proprietary of the Office of
Securit known as and 0 eratin as I

dissident groups in the Washington area considered
to be potential threats to Agency personnel and
installations. One of these Agents so successfully
penetrated one dissident group that she was turned
over to the FBI for handling. In addition, during
this period, the Office of Security field offices
were tasked with collecting available intelligence
on dissident groups. All such information was in-
cluded in a periodic report distributed to appro-
priate parts of the Agency and to certain outside
Government agencies.

SUBJECT~ Audio Countermeasures Support to the
United States Secret Service

On 25 July 1968, and at the specific request


of the United States Secret Service, this Office pro-
vided two audio countermeasures technicians to the
United States Secret Service in connection with the
Democratic National Convention held in Chicago, Illinois.
This was not an official detail although both men were
provided with temporary credentials identifying them
as being affiliated with the United States Secret Service.
On IS August 19~8, we detailed the same two men
to the United States Secret Service to cover the
Republican National Convention in Miami, Florida. On
both occasions, the team members were debriefed upon
their return and it is clear that their activities were
confined exclusively to sweeping the candidates and
potential candidates quarters.

l\U~:t\'[On.ANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence

SUBJECT ROSFLLI, Johnny

1. This merrlOrandum is for in!orrnation only.

2. In August 1960, Mr. Richard 1\'1:. ,Bissell approached


Colonel Sheffield Edwards to deterrnine if the Office of Security
had assets that may assist in a sensitive mission. requiring
gangster-type action. The mission target was Fidel Castro.

3. Because of its extreme sensitivity, only a small group


was made privy to the project. The DCI was briefed and gave his
approval. Colonel J. C. King, Chief, ,\-YB rivision, was briefed,
but all details were deliberately concealed from any of the
JM"\VAVE officials. Certain TSD and Cornrno personnel partici-
pated in the initial planning stages, but were not witting of the
purpose of the mission. ,

4. Robert A. Maheu was contacted, briefed generally on


the project, and requested to ascertain if he could develop an
entree into the gangster elements as the first step toward accom-
plishing the desired goal.

5. Mr. Maheu advised that he had met one Johnny Roselli


on several occasions while visiting Las Vegas. He only knew
him casually through clients, but was given to understand that
he was a high-ranking member of the 11 s yndicate" and controlled
all of the ice-rnaking machines on the Strip. Maheu reasoned
that, if Roselli was in fact a member of the clan, he undoubtedly
had connections leading into the Cuban gambling interests.

00044
6. Maheu '''/as asked to approach Roselli, who knew l\1"ahC'u
as a personal relations executive handling domestic and foreign
a.ccounts, and tell him that he had recently been reL:. .ined by a
client who rE;pH' GE;llt~;d several international busines s firms
which were suffering IH::avy financial losses in Cuba as a result
of Castro's action. They were convinced that Castro's renloval
was the answer to their problern and VvCl'e willing to pay a price
of $150, 000 for its succes s£ul accornplie.hment. It was to be made
clear to Roselli that the U. S. Governrllent was not, and should not,
become aware of this operation.

7. The .pitch \vas 1T1.ade to Roselli on 14 September 1960 at


the Hilton Plaza Hotel, New York City. His initial reaction was
to avoid getting involved but, through Maheu's persuasion, he
agreed to introduce him to a friend, Sam Gold, who knew the
"Cuban crowd. II Roselli made it clear he did not want any money
for his part and believed Sam\,\'ou1d feel the same way. Neither
of these individuals was ever paid out of Agency funds.

8. During the week of 25 September, Maheu was introduced


to Sam who was staying at the Fontainebleau Hotel, Miami Beach.
It was several weeks after his rneeting \vith Sam and Joe, who was
identified to him as a courier operating between Havana and Miami,
that he saw photographs c;>f both of these individuals in the Sunday
supplemental "Parade.' 1 They were identified as Momo Salvatore
Giancana and Santos Trafficant, respectively. Both were on the '
list of the Attorney General's ten most-wanted m.en. The former
"vas described as the Chicago chieftain of the Cosa Nostra and
successor to Al Capone, and the latter, the Cosa Nostra boss of
Cuban operations. Maheu called this office-immediately upon as-
certai:ling this information.

9. In discussing the possible methods of accomplishing this


mission, Sam suggested that they not resort to firearms but, if
he could be furnished some type of potent pill, that could be
placed in Castro's food or drink, it would be a much more effective
operation. Sam indicated that he had a prospective nominee in the
person of Juan Orta, a Cuban official who had been receiving kick-
back payments from the gambling interests, who still had access
to Castro, and was in a financial bind.

00045
I
-:~
- .

] O. TSD was requested to produce six pills of high lethal


content.

11. Joe delivered the pills to erta. /\.fter severa.l weeks


of reported atternpts, OTta apparently got cold fect and asked out
of the assignxnent. He suggested 2.Dother c;:mdioate who rnade
several attenlpts \vithout success.

12. Joe then indicated that Dr. Anthony Verona, one of the
principal officers in the Cuban E:>-.:ile Junta, had become disaffected
with the apparent ineffectual pTogre s s of the Junta and \":2.5 \villing
to handle the rr:<is5ion through his own rebources.

13. He asked, as a prerequisite to the deal, that he be


given $10, 000 for organizational expenses and requested $1.000
worth of cOlnmunications equipment.

14. Dr. Verona' 6 potential was never fully exploited, as


the project was canceled shortly after the Bay of Pigs episode.
Verona was advised that the offer was withdrawn, and the pills
were retrieved.

15. Of significant interest was an incident which involved


a request levied by SaITl upon Maheu.

At the height of the project negotiations, Sam


e>...-pressed concern about his girlfriend, Phyllis McGuire,
who he learned was 'g~tting much attention from Dan
Rowan while both were booked at a Las Vegas night club.
SaITl asked Maheu to put a bug in Rowan's room to deter-
mine the extent of his intimacy with Miss McGuire. The
technician involved in the as sigmnent was discovered in
the procea s, arrested, and taken to the Sheriff's office
for questioning. He called Maheu and inform.ed him. that
he had been detained by the police. This call was made
in the presence of the Sheriff's personnel.

Subsequently, the Department of Justice an-


nounced its intention to prosecute Maheu along with
the technician. On 7 February 1962. the Director of

3
r.'JL,.
." '.'. (\'.
00046
...... l
Security briefed the Attorney General, Robert
Kennedy, on the circumst.anccs leading up to
Maheu's involvement in the -,viretap. At our re-
quest, prosecution wc::.s d:coJ?ped.

16. In 11ay 1962, Ivir. 'Nillia.m Harvey took over as Case


Officer, and it is not Imown by this Office whether P.oselli was
used operationally frOl1'l that point on.

17. It was subsequently learned from the FBI that Roselli


had been convicted on six counts involving illegal entry into the
United States. Our records do not reflect the date of conviction,
but it is believed to have been sornetime during November 1967.

18. On 2 December 1968, Roselli, along with four other


individuals, was convicted of conspiracy to cheat member s of the
Friars Club of $400,000 in a rigged gin gummy game.

19. Mr. Harvey reported to the Office of Security of his


contacts with Roselli during November and De-cember 1967 and
January 1968. It was his belief that Johnny would not seek out
the Agency for assistance in the deportation proceedings unless
he actually faced deportation. Roselli expressed confidence that
he would win an appeal. ,

20. On 17 November 1970, Maheu called James OIConnell,


Roselli's first Case Officer. to advise that Maheu's attorney. Ed
Morgan, had received a call from a Thomas Waddin. Roselli's
lawyer, who stated that alLavenues of appeal had been exhausted.
and his client now faces deportation. Waddin indicated that, if
someone did not intercede on Roselli's behalf, he would make
a complete e"-"p0se of his activities with the Agency.

21. On 18 November 1970, you were briefed on the latest


development in this case. and it was decided that the Agency
would not in any way assist Roselli. Maheu was so advised of
the Agency's position, and he was in complete agreen"lent \,;,rith
our stand. He further advised that he was not concerned about

. any publicity as it affi::cted him personally should Roselli decide


to tell all. :Ee stated he v.'ould advise us promptly of any develop-
lnents that he n-;ay becorne aVlare of in this niatter.

conversation at his home WI I
in the Washington Metropolitanol1ce DeparbJient \\Tfio na:a reported
to him on his interview that afternoon lvi.th a Hr. Ma.rtin and a Mr.

L - . r -_ _----'-"-'had=--'b::..;een subpoenaed for his appearance and he indicated
that the two prosecutors were principally concerned

a. Mlat type of training had the Agency given


members of the Washington 1>1etropolitan Police
Deparbnent? how long were the courses? and
how often were they given? .
b. What support did the Agency provide to the ,
Washington Metropolitan Police Department during
demonstrations occurring in the Washington area
in late 1969 and early 1970?

3. I I
said that he had been shown a long list of
names and asKed if any of them had been involved either lvi.th the
training given the Washington Metropolitan Police Department or the
support to the Washington Metropolitan Police Department during the
demonstrations. L lcould remember only three names on the
list. They were:, I

00052
4. The t1u~ee inaividuals named by I Idid in fact
participate in bot.h the training and support during the demonstrations.
They are only three ClInong others of myl Ispecial
support group ",rho Here involved in these activities. Of extreme
sensitivity is the fact that these sa'1le individuals were engaged in
other highly sensitive activities which could cause the Agency severe
embarrasSI:1cnt if they Here surfaced today in the current 'llYatergate
climate. II

s. I briefed the Director personally on this development


and he indicated that if the training and de.11Oustrations surfaced that
he would simply acknowledge that this had occurred but as he had
assured members of Congress, we '\Yould not engage in this type of
activity in the future. He agreed ",1.th my suggestion that we have the
Legislative Counsel brief Congressman Nedzi and Senator Stennis on
this since they have already been briefed on all activities of this
nature undertaken by the Agency in the past. I briefed Mr. Jo1m
Warner, Acting General Counsel, and a reed with him that we would
make no effort to brief members of my 1 t
until
and if they are subpoenaed. !vir. Warner or members of his Sta f will
then cam:ion them to only answer questions asked and not volunteer
additional infonnation. I am making a copy of this memorandwn available
to I Iof the Inspector General's Staff at the suggestion
of the Inspector General t who I also briefed on this development.

SUBJECT Project TWO-FOLD

I. Tbis memorandUlu sets forth a recornmcnoation for your


approval in paragraph 5.

2. For the past several years, this office has been support-
ing the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD) by spot-
ting, assessing, and recruiting perso.nnel to form an internal
security unit whose primary mission is the detection of corruption
within the BNDD. Subsequent to the recruitment and training stage,
the individuals selected are turned over to the Chief hspector of
BNDD for operational guidance and handling in their various dom-
estic assigr.>ments.

3. Recently, this Agency has extended this activity by


supporting BNDD in the covert acquisition of individuals who are
hired as Staff Agents utilized under nonofficial cover and directed
against the principal international drug traffickers. These indi-
viduals are true eluployees of the BNDD and, although all admin-
istrative details relative to their employment are handled within
the Agency, they' are unaware of any Agency involvement.

4. It is felt at this time that a reaffirmation of our support


to BNDD in Project TWO-FOLD is necessary and desirable.

5. Therefore, it is recommended that approval be granted


for the continuation of Project TWO-FOLD as originally approved
by the Director of Central Intelligence on 12 February 1971.

1. At the Director's instruction, and with the concurrence


of the thenDD/P, the Office of Security developed informants in y: ':,.:.

5. Inforrnation on the background of the Cuban is fairly exl e:l1sive,
but it is inconclusive. He is known to have been a mClnber of anti-
Castro organizations in this country. There are also reports that
his D1.other was imprisoned in Cuba at one time. There are other
cpisodes in his life that suggest intelligence involvernent on his part
with SOlne hostile service, but this is not yet definitely establi.shed.

6. The Office of Security has had at tilues a second inform.ant


in t.his case. His reporting has tended to confirrn reporting by the
principal infonnant.

8. The Office of Security has been running this operation for


over two years, in an effort to obtain conclusive proof of its intelli-
gence nature. CI Staff has been kept informed.. The FBI, which
was informed of the case at an early stage, has declined to take re-
sponsibility for it, on grounds that it concerns CIA's internal security.
As a result, the Office ofSecurity has been inhibited in the actions
it can take against the Cuban suspect. On the other hand, Security
has not taken any action against Agency employees for fear of com-
p;romising the operation.

9. It would appear to me that the Office of Security has dallied


with this case long enough. Apparently unable through positive measures
to resolve doubts about the case, O/S has followed the course of watch-
ful waiting, hoping the Cuban would take precipitatf action himself that
would give us the evidence we seek. In the meantime, our knowledge
of the relationship between the Cuban and the several other current
Agency employees with whom he is known to have contact continues

1. In D.:o<..:ember 1970 R.obert Ingersoll, head of the Bureau of ~Jar­


cotics and Dangerous Dru§:":s, asked Hr. Helms it the Agency could give
him scime assistance in shoring up the internal integrity of the mJDD.
According to Ingersoll, the old Federal Bureau of Narcotics had been
heavily infiltrated by dishc.nest and corrupt elements, ,.;ho were believed
to have ties with the narcotics smuggling industry. Ingersoll wanted us
to h~lp him recruit some thoroughly reliable people who could be used,
not only as special agents in his various offices arolmd the country,
but also to serve as informants on the other BNDD employees in these
offices.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Management &Services


SUBJECT Press Allegations re Use of Agency
Polygraph

1. This memorandum is for your information only


and confirms a report I made to you by telephone earlier
today.
2. On 22 July 1971, an article was carried on
American proposals relative to the SALT talks in The New
York Times over the by-line of William Beecher. It was
devastatingly accurate and contained direct quotes from
a Presidential advisory memorandum the White House had
sent to Mr. Gerard Smith, Director, Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency, a few days earlier. The President
was alleged to be furiou~ with this unauthorized dis-
closure of classified information and directed a. sweeping
investigation within the United States Government to
determine the source of the disclosure. Investigation
"
'. , was conducted under the dir,ec:t4on'Q:~. Mr. Egi1 Krogh and
Mr. David Young, Staff AssistaIif~ to Mr. John Ehr1ichman,
Counsel to the President for Domestic Affairs.
3. On the basis of investigations conducted by
State Security and Defense officials, four individuals--
one individual in the Department of Defense and three
individuals in the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency--
were tabbed as leading suspects. Mr. Egi1 Krogh contacted
me on 26 July 1971 and requested that we arrange to polygraph
the three suspects in the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency
and volunteered the information that the Federal Bureau of
Investigation would be asked to polygraph the one suspect
in the Department of Defense.

4. I informed Mr. Krogh that from time to time


in matters involving the national security the Agency had
detailed to Mr. G. Marvin Gentile, Director of State
Security, a polygraph operator and a polygraph machine for
his use in polygraphing State Department employees who
were recipients of allegations concerning their loyalty.
I emphasized that this procedure had the Director's
approval and that State clearly understood that the examin-
ation was their total responsibility. I further informed
him that this was the only way we could undertake to enter-
tain his request and that even then it would require the
specific approval of the Director. Mr. Krogh asked me to
obtain such approval and work out such arrangements with
Mr. Gentile.
S. Later that same day, Mr. Krogh called Mr. Gentile
and inquired as to whether the arrangements had been made.
Mr. Gentile indicated they had and suggested that the same
polygraph operator be used to examine the Defense suspect.
Mr. Krogh informed Mr. Gentile that he considered this an
excellent idea and that he would instruct Defense officials
to make their man available to Mr. Gentile for a polygraph
examination.

L.......r;e:'Ux:r;a~m:;-:;1.-:;n men and th e
results of the examinations were forwarded over my signature
to Mr. Gentile on 29 July 1971. A copy of my covering
memorandum is attached.
7. Mr. Murrey Marder, a staff writer for The
Washington Post, in an article dated 3 September 1'9IT,
stated that a State Department spokesman had acknowledged
at a news briefing that agents of the Federal Bureau of
Investigation had polygraphed State Department employees
suspected of leaking information on the SALT talks in
July. Mr. John Edgar Hoover, then Director of the Federal

2
..
... .,- . (

Bureau of Investigation, denied this allegation in a


letter to The Washin&.!o~ Post and said that the polygraph
examinations had been conducted by another agency. Specu-
lation centered around the Agency, but after a day or so,
press speculation in this regard died away.
8. Mr. Marder apparently has never been satisfied
and has been pressing Mr. Charles Bray, State Department
spokesman, for confirmation of Agency involvement. Mr.
Bray learned today that Mr. Marder plans to use a press
conference to be held at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon to press
this point further. Mr. Bray has been given guidance by
Mr. Gentile to avoid confirmation but if this is impossible
he will indicate the examinations were conducted by State
Department Security officials utilizing an operator and
a machine detailed to the Department for this purpose. I
do not know whether or not the fact that the government-wide
investigation was directed by Mr. Egil Krogh is known to
Mr. Marder but I suspect that it is and that this is the
reason why the matter has been raised again. Mr. David
Young was instrumental in pushing my office to conduct an
internal Agency investigation of this disclosure and the
White House was satisfied that no Agency employee was
the source.

Hm'lever, the President made deteriy;il1~tion--he' d.--]-i}r:~-to----a:~~sv~~i:-~~.lpi~-;-;:t
over his signature here and we asked the Department of State to
support us on this effort. They're in a position vn1ere they can provide
only limited support at this time. Th~ committed for $10,000 \'Ihich
would probably handle in the area of maybe bC),OOo responses.... .. _-

M: How many responses altogether counting pros and cons?

B: The cons are quite a large group that they're handling themselves also.

M: Are they going to be handling pros too?

B: ...,>-$lOJ.9-£OisJo!..J?ros. They're doing cons. On pros they can pick up only


$10, OOOW'Ortli.:-we-estimate it will be arounct..$§.".9_00 .~.!_l.2..L~T}d it
looks like at present time we've got over 100,000 responses in and it
could go upwards of 150,000 or greater. Looks like \'Ie'll need a minimum
of another $lO;OOO:J?iCiEra~oJ.:y-inare-aof$15,0002 additional. This covers
cost of pri"il-Eing, postage and addressing:'

M: Just printing, postage and addressing? Not any overtime for any salaries
or anything like that?

B: No, the posting of the things we'll do ourselves -- by hand. No problem.


We're talking about physical costs of job -- cost of stamps, cost of
envelopes and cards, and cost of having them addressed by outside firm.
We'll handle putting sta~ on, inserting, and sealing and mailing. Only
talking about cost associated with three aspects of the operation.

M: Postage, addressing and printing.


C
B: Yes, reason I asked NS~ to see if they could arrange -- depending on
how volume goes -- probably another ~10,000 to g,5,000.__

M: These are just pros? State is handling all cons themselves?

B: Can't be real definite -- not sure how we're going to peak out. Not
sure what backlog is. I'll check into that so when we talk this

I think.

Mr. Magnusson's phone convel"sation with Col. Hhite at 15:40 on 26 Iv;ay 1970:

M: I talked 'nth John Brown today and it seems like -- as ;you mentioned --
as a result of CC-wTloodia, inquiries going into 1\11i te House. The State
Department is doing all the work on the cons -- there are pros and cons.
The State Department is going to answer all the cons and the President has
determined that he wants to anSi-ler persona.lly all the pros. However, the
state has agreed to pick up some of those too in the aInount of $10,000.
That will cover maybe 60,000 of the ans-wers. They estimate there 1 s going
to be from 100,000 to 150,000 answers that will have to be put out by
the Hhite House. Estimate it's going to cost about $8,000 per 50,000.
Think it might go to 150,000. $10,000 to $15,000 additional which the
White House will have to pay for. The charges are only going to be for
printing, postage and addressing by an outside firm. No salaries for
overtime or anything like that. They're going to lick the stamps in the
\<i'hi te House, paste the stamps on and insert the message into the envelopes.
John Brm-ffi said he had requested NSC to see if they could arrange,
presUD1ably with us, I guess, for another $10,000 to $15,000 depending on
volume. He was talking as more or less foregone conclusion we would do
it. I made no commitment. Told him I'd look into it.

W: How would we do this?

M: We would do it by asking them to pay amount and tl1en send over 1080
to us with bill for the postage, bill for the addressing of the envelopes
and bill for the printing accompanying this and we would just send check
back. They would send short memorandum with it certifying these are the
charges. '

W: I think we want to know what we spend our money for but I don't think we
want the public records to' show that we paid for it.

M: What we can do, Sir -- I can ask them to send over a 1080 with certifica-
tion that these are the charges for classified services per our conversation,
and if you're willing to take that we can certainly do it that way.

W: Will this be an outside firm? Couldn't we just pay the firm? What would
,be better? I'm not sure.

M: I think a short memo just saying attached 1080 is for charges previously
agreed to between this Agency and themselves and that's all and then we
send them check for that. Otherwise, there's always chance that an outside
firm might realize it was us paying for it.,

W: I guess it's the best way to do it. I'd like to have in our records --
nobody else has access to -- exactly what it was for -- all about it;
their records, which are audited by the General Accounting Office, as
little as possible.

(continued)

00086
.'

Mr. l'1agnusson and Col. vlhite (continued - Page 2)

M: Think I can talk to them and an:ange that so he just sends unclassified
1080.

W: Go a.head and do it. I'll have to sign off on it, I suppose. You go
ahead and a.rrange it in way that will give us full record. As far as
any records of their IS a:ce concerned, I would prefer to have minim'lun.

M: I can write memo and John Bro-wn ca.n l'efer to this and our phone conversa-
tion in a memo accompanying the 1080.

W: Okay, go ahead and do it. Put limit on it. h'hen they talked to we they
said $10,000.

M: He said $10,000 to $15,000 because t:ney're just p011ring in. Might run
above $10,000.

W: Approximately $10,000 but in no case will it exceed $15,000 -- something


like that. Okay.

M: All right, Sir.

W: Thank you, Warren.

gr. 1'-1agnusson' s phone conversation with Kr. John Brmm at appl'oxin13.te1y 1'7: 00
on 26 May 1970:

M: Think we can go aJ.1ead and do this. Have' to be caref\ll as to way this


is doc'urnented -- that's the only thing. \iould like to suggest that I
,,,rite memo for the record -- kind of co-sign it -- agreeing to wnount
and so forth and the way we do this. If,emo would have in it what it's
for and then you ,",ould send us a 1080 for this, referencing this ITlE~mo
an~ our conversation.

B: You're thinking in t0rJllS of :cell(joursing us again? \';ouldn' t it be


better for us to have direct cha.:cge to you?

M: No, because of public record. In order to have all the things in our
hands. It wouldn't look good for us to pay the bills direct for this
sort of thing.

B: It would not?

M: No, if you people pay the bills •••••

B: (interrupting) Even to pay a large postage fee? Bulk of expense will


be postage.

M: But we have to document what it's for - - if you people can just pay it,
then we'll give you money for it.

B: What would our memo say?

M: Say attached is 1080 referencing memo dated such and such.

B: 'What does the memo say -- that we're making reference to?

M: I III write that up and bring over to you.

B: What, basically, are we going to say it's about?

M: ,Have $10,000 with limit of $15,000 and would be for printing of these
things and so on.

B: Just wondering if you have direct billing it seems to me that serves


purpose of memorandum.

M: The direct billing from, let's say, the printer, the addressograph
company or something like that, to us might raise questions outside
and I think powers that be don't want to have fact that we're paying
for this sort of thing anyplace where it can be dug up. Easiest and
cleanest way to do this is you people go ahead and pay and we'll
reimburse you immediately.

B: Do we have to have this memo?

M: I'd keep in rr~ safe here.

B: Houldn' t i t be a.dec.. \~ate to send 1080?

M: Don't forget, you people keep copies of 1080's -- you have to by


law. 1080 would have to cite 'what billing is for beca.use of that,
then that would open up to GAO or somebody else as to who's paying
for this sort of thing.

B: \'le have to cite what it's for?

M: Let I s say it' s "XYZ Printing CompanyU and you pay bill. This looks
like you're paying it. You send us 1080 which says nothing and we
give you money for this. He ourselves have to have on our i.'ecords
what we're paying for for our o\VTI ~uditors which doesn't get outside
of our Agency.

B: It's for your internal auditors? It would not get outside? Okay,
that sounds all right.

M: 1 1 11 draw the memo up and bring it over there and you can see it.

B: That sounds good, Warren.

M: Would next Monday be all right with that memo?

B: Yes, we'll go ahead and order.

M: You can get going and so on.

B: Don't know what final cost is going to be. Hate to restrict ourselves.
We figure total cost is going to be around $25,000. Got over 100,000
already that are just pro. 200,000 that haven't been analyzed yet.
Of 200,000 they estimate possibly upwards of 50,000 or 60,000 could
pertain to Cambodia. Of the backlog of 200,000, 60,000 could be of
,type that will be answered in this mailing. Our best estimate would
be it may run over.

M: I've got instructions, John, to indicate in memo that it's for


approximately $10,000 but not to exceed $15,000. If and when it
exceeds $15,000, we'll start over again and I'll inquire further as
to whether we can cover the other -- okay?

B: Okay.

M8MORANDGM FOR T~~ RECORD

SUBJECT: RejJnbu:c sement to the Hhite House for Certain Printing,


Postage and Addressing Expenses

1. On 18 August 1970, the undersigned received a telepllOne call


from Mr. John Brown (145-2167) advising that the mailing had been
heavier than anticipated (increased to 250,000 pieces) and that the
dollar requirement for subj ect purpose had incl'eased from $15,000 to
$25,000.
2. I apologetically advised y~. Brown that since our records
showed that prior approval was lirrdted to $15,000 I would have to
advise and confirm with my superiors that the increase to $25,000
was acceptable, as I was sure it was.

3. In the absence of Col. Hhite (on leave), Mr. Bush irmnediately


contacted Mr. Clarke, r---1 who was not in his office. On 19 August,
Mr. Clarke telephonicaIIy-approved the increased level and y~. Brown
was duly informed.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Management and Services


SUBJECT Special Report

1. This memorandum is in response to a request to


provide information on situations or associations that
might appear to be irregular on the surface.
2. Details to the White House and Government Agencies -
Background-:--For ]113ny years the Central Infe-IIlgc;i1ce Agc-nc·y--has
detailed employees to the immediate office of the White House
per se and to components associated intimately with the immediate
office of the President such as the Council on International
Economic Policy and the President's Foreign Intelligence
Advisory Board. We have furnished secretaries, clerical
employees and certain professional employees on a reimbursable
and non-reimbursable basis. At the present time, we have no
clericals or professionals assigned to the immediate White
House office, but we do have one young man detailed to their
Communications Section. There are detailees to PFIAB and CIEP.
I might point out that we had detailed to the White House as
late as the fall of 1970 couriers, telephone operators, a
laborer assigned to the grounds and a graphics man who designed
invitations for State dinners. By October of 1970, more funds
were apparently available to run the White House and most of
our detailees were hired as bona fide White House employees.
CIA is not the only Agency furnishing the White House with
detailees. Levies have been made by this Administration and
others on Defense and State and other Government entities
whose employees have Top Secret clearances.
Professional officers have been and are at the present
time assignedm the National Security Council and we have seven
clericals on detail to NSC on a reimbursable basis.
In addition to the above, we have technical specialists
detailed to NSA, an instructor at the National War College and
security officers detailed to the Department of State to

001.05 '
protect foreign visitors. Recently, I lwas detailed
to the Secretary of the Treasury alorig wIth 10 l' other Agency
employees. We have even, in rare instances, detailed our
people to Congressional Staffs for short periods of time.
3. Details to the White House and Government Agencies -
Discussion: Details to NSC, the White-House, N.S1\. and fhe
National War College are probably qu~te defensible. On the other
hand, there may be those who would question Agency employees
currently working at the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs
and Mr. Peter Peterson having an Agency employee as his
secretary when he was the Secretary of Commerce (she also made
a trip with him to Moscow). She is still with him in his
present assignment but we expect that she will report to NSC for
a new detail sometime this month. ~ I served for
over ten years as Director of thefflce of PublIC Safety for
AID. This information has been kept "close to the vest" during
that entire period of time. He has been approved for disability
retirement and is presently on sick leave and will retire
automatically at the expiration of this leave.
Each detail of an Agency employee to the White House or
other Government agency has been carefully considered and
approval at a higher level obtained when professionals were
involved.
4. Project TWOFOLD: I believe the support we are
providing to Project TWOFOLD is an activity that should be
reported under your guidelines. Since this is an extremely
sensitive Project and the Office of Security is reporting on
it, I will not repeat the details in my memorandum.
5. Individuals Engaged in Domestic Activities: In a more
general sense, Contract Personnel Division prepares and executes
contracts with individuals engaged by the Agency to carry out
domestic activities. We also process Staff Agents who are
domestically assigned. None of these assignments are decided
in OP. I really have no way of knowing with any degree of
certainty what the specific duties of these individuals will be.

7. I I

8. Hunt Requests a Lockpicker: This is a record of


External Employment Assistance Branch's action on a request
from Howard Hunt for a lockpicker who might be retiring or
resigning from the Agency.
Sometime in the spring of 1972, Frank O'Malley of EEAB
received a call from Howard Hunt who asked Frank if he had a
retiree or resignee who was accomplished at picking locks.
Mr. O'Malley sent him a resume on Thomas Amato who retired
31 July 1971. Mr. O'Malley did not document his EEAB record
to show the date of this e~change, but I Kwho
also works in EEAB) opines that it occurred sometlme between
March and May 1972.
All of the above information was reported to the Office
of Security on 4 October 1972 following the FBI's contact with
the Agency regarding Howard Hunt.
9. Resume Sent to McCord: I ~ contract
employee who retired in September 1971, was a c~ient of the
after retirement. One of the leads given tol r
External Employment Assistance Branch in his search for a job
as
James McCord's security business. EEAB sent a lesume to
McCord, but I Iwas not hired.
In mid-summer 1972, r ~telePhoned EEAB from
Chicago. (He had a job there Wl til t e Hal ifax Security Co.,
a lead provided by EEAB, but until this telephone call he had

00107
...'

not notified EEAB that he had the job and had moved from
the D.C. area.) He said he had been. visited by a Special
Agent of the FBI who told I ~hat his resume had been
found among McCord's papers. Ine Agent wanted to know if
I ~ad any connection with McCord. I ~xplained
how the resume got to McCord. After the Agent left him,
I ~e l~pl:one~ EEA~. I lof OP and I Iof
os ,,,ere not 1 fled lrnmedla tery.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence


THROUGH Deputy Director for l'-fanagement and Services
SUBJECT Sensitive Activities~~erformed by the
Office of Logistics

1. This memorandum contains information for the Director


of Central Intelligence.

2. This memorandum is submitted pursuant to advice given


by the Deputy Director for Management and Services on 7 May
that Office Directors report on activities, either under their
cognizance or otherwise known to them, the nature of which
could possibly need explanation or justification when viewed
within the statutory responsibility and authority of the
Director of Central Intelligence. The responsibilities of the
Office of Logistics (OL) are such that in all matters herein
reported, except two, the actions undertaken were at the re-
quest of another Agency component. We have prepared a brief
description of ea~h action involved and then have included the
name of the sponsoring component. The substantive reason for
the requests for action by,this Office will have to be deter-
mined by inquiry to the designated sponsoring component.
3. Facts pertaining to both actions undertaken at the
initiative of this Office are as follows:

Logistics

the DD/O, we will not honor any requisition for surveil-


lance equipment unless it has been approved by the CI
Staff of the DD/O.
4. Within the area of contractual responsibilities, the
following items are pertinent:
a. In February 1971, Colonel L. K. White, the then
Executive Director-Comptroller, called me to attend a
meeting in his office, also attended by Mr. William Colby.
Colonel White explained that the Technical Services
Division (TSD) had been requested to provide assistance
to the FBI for a sensitive project designatedJ Kcur-
rently designatedl IColonel White di not dis-
close the purpose of the asslstance being provided by TSD
but did instruct me to assist TSD on purely contractual
matters. Since the Office of Logistics has no information
concerning the mission or purpose of Projectl I sub-
stantive questions concerning the subject should be
addressed to TSD. Other procurement actions accomplished
for the FBI are re orted below. Specific mention is made,
however, of ecause of the dollar magnitude, ap- .
proximately lon, .and the complex technical equip-
ment that has involved in the undertaking.
b. The Procurement Division, OL, currently has two
requisitions in hand from TSD which would involve reim-
bursable sales to the FBI. One such requisition in the
,amount of $36,900 is for two Westinghouse television
cameras. The second requisition in the amount of $11,200
is for two wide-angle surveillance probes manufactured by
Bausch and Lomb . . No action is being taken on either of
these requirements pending further instructions which
will be sought from the Deputy Director for Management
and Services.
c. Over the years, this Agency has often supported
other Government agencies from a contractual or materiel
standpoint. Upon the submission of an officially approved
request, supported by a transfer of funds, the Agency
would either enter into "accommodation procurements" for
the requesting agency or support the requesting agency by
the issuance' of'materiel from stock. Such actions are
legally accomplished under the Economy Act of 1925. This
A~~ authorizes one agency to support the needs of, or pro-
vide a service for,' another Government agency when such

[1 .. _0 UI~

action would be more economical and eliminate the need for


one agency of the Government to duplicate facilities
readily available from another. A typical example of this
procedure is purchasing photointerpretation gear for the
Defense Intelligence Agency element located at NPIC. In
connection with the current repor:ring requirement, however,
I have had our records researched for the past 2 years and
Attachment 1 reflects those transactions which appear to be
relevant to the subject of this memorandum.
d. In connection with the disclosures during the sum-
mer of 1971 that the Rand Corporation was not properly
safeguarding classified documents, this Office undertook
two acts. I directed the Security Officer from our West
Coast Procuremeht Office at the Moffet Naval Air Station
in California to visit the Rand Corporation and satisfy
himself that classified material furnished them by the
Agency was both properly safeguarded and accounted for.
His report was affirmative. On 23 August 1971, the senior
Security Officer assigned to this Office forwarded a
letter to the Rand Corporation stressing and reaffirming
the procedures Rand must follow in safeguarding classified
information furnished them by the Agency. Of residual
interest in this matter, there is summarized the contents
of a memorandum of 2 July 1971 to the Executive Director-
Comptroller from the DD/I which is in our possession.
Th'is memorandum reports that FBIS regularly
disseminated reports to the Rand Corporation
but that instructions had been issued to cease
distribution of classified reports. While no
other direct dissemination went to Rand, other
USIB agencies, primarily USAF, were passing
"manyi! copies of DD/I products to Rand as' au-
thorized under USIB regulations. The memoran-
dum also states that Rand personnel had
requested searches and document retrieval from
the CRS facility.
S. In connection with action taken for the Office of
Security, there are three relevant items:
a. The Printing Services Division, OL, was requested
by the Office of Security to print a book written by
Harry J. Murphy, Office of Security. The book was pre-
pared by Mr. Murphy under a Brookings Institution Federal

0011.3
SUBJECT: Sensitive Activities Performed by the Office of
Logistics

·Executive Fellowship. The book is enti tIed "Where' s


What -- Sources of Information for Pederal Investigators."
It is a full treatise on the existence of sources of in-
formation that may be useful to an investigator. The
book's first printing of 300 copies was made in June 1967.
Due to demand, a second printingQf 600 copies was made
in September 1968. The title page of the book gives
attribution to Mr. ~~rphy, Office of Security, Central
Intelligence Agency, and the Brookings Institution Federal
Executive Fellowship. The book is classified Confidential,
and it is our understanding that the distribution was made
to appropriate agencies of the Federal Government. A copy
of Mr. Murphy's book can be made available for review if
desired.
Sometime in 1972, a representative of the Law
Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) requested
that the Agency give consideration to our publishing, at
LEAA expense, an unclassified version of this volume. It
was the intent of LEAA to make broad-scale distribution
to Police Departments throughout the country. The Director
of Security and I consulted on this matter and jointly
determined that the LEAA request should not be honored be-
cause the Agency should ·not put itself in the position of
publishing law enforcement material for general and un-
classified purposes, and it would be an abuse of our print-
ing facilities.
b. On 5 January 1971, the Director of Security re-
quested that I approve his leasing up to eleven motor
vehicles for use in connection with a special support
operation which would last approximately 3 months. The
Director of Security informed me, in his requesting memo-
randum of 5 January 1971, that "This support activity has
been undertaken at the specific instruction of the Director
and has his personal approval." The request was approved.
c. From 1968 to date, the Office of Security has
requisitioned from this Office a considerable amQunt of
materiel which we understand was to be given or loaned by
them to local Police Departments. In certain cases some
of this materiel was issued from Agency stocks and, in
other cases, direct procurement of the materiel was made
by funds furnished by the Office of Security. A complete
listing of such materiel is found in Attachment 2.

nor responsibility, that an apartment was rented in Miami
Beach, Florida, during the period of the Democratic National

relevant to subject tasking given by Yhe Director.

formatiori that may be useful to an investigator. The
book's first printing of 300 copies was made in June 1967.
Due to demand, a second printing of 600 copies was made
in September 1968. The title pa~ccof the book gives
attribution to Mr. Hurphy, Office of Security, Central
Intelligence Agency, and th~ Brookings Institution Federal
Executive Fellowship. The book is classified Confidential,
and'it is our understanding that the distr.ibution was made
'to'appropriate agencies of the Federal Government. A copy
of Nr. Murphy's book can be made av~il~ble for review if
desired.
Sometime in 1972, a representative of the Law
Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) requested
that the Agency give consideration to our publishing, at
LEAA expense, an unclassified version of this volume. It
was the intent of LEA.A to make broad-scale distribution
to Police Departments throughout the ,country. The Director
of Security and I consulted on this matter and jointly
determined that the LEAA request should'not be ,honored be-
cause the Agency should· not put itself in the posit.ion of
publishing law enforcement material for general ,and un-
classified purposes, and it would be an abuse of our print-
ing, ,facilities.
b. On 5 January 1971, the Director of Security re-
quested that I approve his leasing up to eleven motor
vehicles for use in connection with a special support
operation which would last approximately 3 months. The
Director of Security informed me, ,in his requesting memo-
randum of 5 January 1971, 'that,HTllis'support activity has
been underta}~en at the specific instruction ,of the Director
and has his personal approval." The request was approved.
c. From 1968 to date, the Offige of Security has ,
requisitioned from this Office a considerable amount of
materiel which we understand was to be given 0'1' loaned by
th.em to local Police Departments. In certain cases some
of this materiel was issued from Agency stocks and, in
other cases, direct ptocurement of the materiel was made
by, funds furnished by the Office of Security. A complete
listing of such materiel is found in Attachment 2.

which was then in Miami, had relatively frequent contact


with the Miami bureaus of the FBI and FCC, Miami Police
and the Miami Beach Police. The staff provided support
to these activities in monitoring, identification and
DF of specific illegal agent transmissions conducted by
foreign nationals and American citizens in the greater
Miami area. Arrangements for this support were made
thro~gh the DDO'sl I
2. In late September 1972, NSA, through Division D!
DDO, requested that the Special Programs Division initiate
a hearabi1ity survey of certain HP' long-distance commercial
telephone circuits between the U.S. and South America.
The circuits carried'drug related long-distance calls of
interest to the BNDD and other U.S. agencies. Because of

4. An operational test of an HF/DF
system was [~!cOnducted DO and
OC-SPD pers nnel 1n the earl par 0 the summer of 1972.
A location in Miami Beach, Florida was selected for the
tests because of similarity to the actual' target site and
environment in Sa~gon. Receiving antennas were placed on
the roof of the hotel being used as the receiving/DF site.
A hotel employee asked why the materiel was placed on the
roof. .A team member in effect told him that the group
was an advance security segment for the Democratic National"
Convention. No further questions were asked; the tests"
were completed and the equipment was returned to the
Washi~gton area.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Management and Services

SUBJECT Contacts with Individuals Named in the Watergate l\1atter

1. I am addressing this to you instead of to the Director of Central


Intelligence since I doubt that the information contained herein is of such
sigl1ificance to warrant his interest and because it has been on record with
the Agency since July 1972. However, if you feel that the information is of
such interest that it should be forwarded to the Director I shall put it in the
proper format to do so.

2. My only contact with anyone named in connection with the


Watergate and related matters was throughl la former
Agency employee now retired and living in Winterhaven, Florida. In
December 19711 Icalled me from Florida and advised that he
wanted to get in touch with Howard Hunt. He said that he did not have Hunt's
home phone number and that it was probably unlisted but that since Hunt was a
former employee, could I contact Hunt and ask him to givel la call.
I had only met Hunt once about 10 years before but I agreed to relay the message.
I called Howard Hunt at his home and told him thatj Idid not have his
home phone and requested he calli
relaying the message and said that he woUld ca 11
little consequence to me in December 1971 but in July 1972
C
~ Mr. Hunt thanked me for
This seemed of
lof the
.

Office of Security contacted me in regard to the FBI investigation of the Watergate


situation. At that time I informed I lof the telephone call from
·1 lin December 1971. Attached is a copy of a Memorandum for the
Record prepared by I las a result of our conversation.

3. In the summer of 1972 I took my family to Disney World in Florida


and took that occasion to drop in to seel II Itold me in
a private conversation that he had been interviewed three or four times by the
FBI in connection with the Watergate affair and he related to me his contact

with Howard HW1t. On 19 July 1972 after my return from Florida I reported
this conversation to the Director of Security and made it a Memorandum [or
the Record. This memorandum was sent to Mr. Colby and a copy of the
memorandLUTI is attached.

4. Other than knowing Mr. McCord through his employment with


the Agency and meeting 110ward I'funt once in about 1959, I do not blOW nor
have I had any contact with any individuals named or knowledge of related
matters now receiving attention in the press .

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Conversation "\\,-ithl _

1. 'While on leave visiting Disney World in Florida, I


dropped In to see I \v,rho lives in Winterhaven, Florida.
_ _--Jlretired from the Ag<3ncy about fi\.re years ago on disability due
to a serious heart condition. He \vas with the Office of Security for
about 20 years prior to his retirement.

, 2. During a private conversation I Itold me that he had


been interviewed three or four times by the FBI in connection with
the McCord-Hunt affair. I asked him why he had been interviewed,
and he told me that in late 1971 he had been contacted by Ho"\vard
Hunt who suggested that he consider an assignment as Security
Officer for the Republican Party. 1 Ivisited "\Vashington in
January 1972 to discuss the' proposed position with Howard Hunt
who apparently was acting on behalf of the Republican Party. 1---1
furni'shed a resume to Hunt and discussed the position with him.
Ultimately, he decided not to accept the position because he felt
that his heart condition would not allow him to become imrolved in
such activity.

3. According to I I
during the meeting with Mr. Hunt
they discus sed some of the requirelnents of the job. At that time
they discussed a need for both a positive and a counteraudio program
and a need for a good security system both before and during the
National Convention. I lindicated that he sincerely believed that
the Republican Party did need a security officer and a good secul-ity'
programmer but felt that he could not afford to accept the job even,
though it was a very lucrative offer. Apparently, money '.vas not a
probleln.
. ,

1°0158
4. WhcnDdeclinec1, he indicated that Mr. Hunt asl,ed
for any other I"ccommendations he rnight' have. r'\ccording to I__ ---J

he told Mr. I-runt that most of the people he kne\v ,vere still in the
'Agency, but he did furnish the name off !who might he
possibly ready to retire from the Agenty.

5. I linformed 11ie that he as sumed that the' Bur"eau


obtained his n2.1ne due to the re smne he furnished 1\Ifl'. Hunt. He
said that the Bureau had talked to him on three or four occasions
and that he had written up about a 40 page statement concerning
his dealings with Mr. Hunt. \Vben asked about rvfr. McCord, 1-=---
said that he really did not know McCord that well and declined any
knowledge of Mr. McCord I s technical capability:

6. I !indicated that he had not been In touch


with Mr. Hunt smce the early part of 1972 and knew nothing of
the Watergate operation. He stated that he had gained the impres-
sion frOln the Bureau interview that the technical device s \vel'e being
removed at the tiITle of the arrest and were not being installed as
,?riginally reported.

7. All of the above information was volunteered by D


-----1 and I really did not get involved in any discussion all. the
ITlatter other than to com,ment that I hated to see the Agency's nalne
connected with such an incident in any way. The above conversation
took place during a 10 o~ 15 minute period and no other discussion
relating to this incident was held. It is being reported for the record
and for information of the Director of Security.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence

SUBJECT Support Furnished to Elements of the Government


Outside of the Intelligence Community

The Interagency Audio Surveillance Counterrneasures Training


Center (ITC) was established at the instigation of this Cornmittee and
opened in late 1968 under the executive management of CIA. The
need for such a school had been recognized by the National Security
Council's Technical Subconunittee as far back as 1962 and was re-
emphasized by the Security Committee of the USIB in their October
1964 report titled lIDamage Assessment of the Technical Surveillance
Penetration of the US Embassy, Moscow."

Membership on the TSCC has been confined to agencies and


departments who are represented on the USIB. From time to tilne
other elements of the Government have indicated their concern over
the audio surveillance threat and asked for membership on the
Committee. In all cases they have been turned down with the
suggestion that they take advantage of the TSCC's product either
through liaison with the security organizations of the Conunittee's
members or by nominating students to attend the ITC. During
CY -72 the following students were trained at the ITC:

Central Intelligence Agency 10


Defense Intelligence Agency 5
Department of the Air Force 25
Department of the Army 50
Department of Justice (BNDD) 4
Department of the Navy 5
Department of State 3

00:168
Departn1ent of Transportation 3
Internal Revenue Service 3
Nation:al Security Agency 1
United States Secret Service 6
White House Communications Agency 2

The ITC has furnished training only to em.ployees of the


agencies and departments of the Federal Governrnent. State and
local police departments have not been detailed to the ITC.

6. At the time of retirement Mr. Hunt did not elect survivorship benefits.
This meant that upon his death, his wife wuuld not draw a survivorship
annuity. By letter of 5 April 1971 he raised the question of changing
his election but ",as' informed by the General Cowlsel on 6 May 1971 that
this could not be done. By letter dated 5 May 1972 Mr. Hunt asked Mr.

Houston to raise with the Director the possibility of being recalled to


duty for a short period of time, after which he could retire again and
elect survivorship benefits. By letter of 16 May 1972 Mr~ Houston advised
~fr. Hunt that to call him back to duty solely for the purpose of permitting
him to change survivorship benefits would be in violation of the spirit 9f
the CIA Retirement Act.

r~10RANDm1 FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Research Project on Robert Vesco

1. On 16 October 1972 Messrs. Ereckinridge andI


in the course of a Survey, were briefed on activitie O~ ClJe

Atlantic/Pacific Division of the Office of Economic Reoorts. One


project cited was a query from the Director, apparently at the re-
quest of Secretary Shultz, to the effect, 1I~'lhat do we know about
Vesco," the man then running roS. Two of OERls analysts were assigned
to the project and, working through the Domestic Contact Service,
spent a day going over the files of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. There apparently was some contact also with EUR Division
of the Deputy Directorate for Plans and with the Office of Current
Intelligence.

2. The information above is based on rough notes and obviously


is sketcqy. It is cited now not to suggest any wrongdoing but because
of the current publicity about Vesco and the probability of continuing
probes into the 'subject by the press and the courts.

SUBJECT Activities Possibly Outside CIA's


Legislative Charter

1. This memorandum responds to your instruction to


report any activities which might be considered outside CIA's
legislative charter.

2. All Office and Staff chiefs in the Intelligence Directorate


have reviewed the past and present activities of their components.
I have received responses from all of them, and none reported any
activities related to either the Watergate affair or the break into
the offices of Ellsberg's psychiatrist. Although contacts with
three of the people allegedly implicated in these incidents were
reported, these contacts were on matters other than the two
improper activities:

Hunt: Col. White, Richard Lehman, and I talked


to Hunt in late 1970 regarding his preparation
of a recommendation in support of the Agency's
nomination of R. Jack Smith for the National
Civil Service League Award.

Mitchell: While Mr. Mitchell was Attorney General,


an OCI officer was assigned the task of
providing him with daily briefings on
foreign developments.

Young: Harry Eisenbeiss andl ~f CRS
had frequent contacts wlth Young during the
summer of 1972 in connection with Executive
Order 11652 and the implementing NSC
directive. This involved visits by Young
to CIA to discuss information storage and
retrieval and several meetings of an inter-
agency group dealing with the implementation
of the Executive Order and directive.

3. In accordance with my instructions. several Offices reported


domestic activities which might appear questionable to outsiders.
Their responses are attached. Most of these activities are clearly
within the Agency's charter. but there are a few which could be
viewed as borderline.

Des accepts information on poss ible foreign


involvement in U$ dissident groups and on the
narcotics trade when sources refuse to deal
with the FBI and BNDD directly.

Des. for six months in late 1972 and early 1973.

NPIC has examined domestif coverage for special


purposes such as natural catastrophies and civil

OCI, in 1967 and 1968, prepared intelligence


memoranda on possible foreign connections with
the US anti-war movement and world-wide student
dissidence (including the SDS) at the request of
the WhiteHouse.

FBIS has on occasion supplied linguists to work


directly for another agency, e. g., to the FBI to
translate Arabic in Washington.

FBIS monitors radio press dis patches and reports


covered by copyright. These are circulated within
the Government and stamped "Official Use Only" •
. This has gone on for three decades without problems.

FBIS has monitored and reported on foreign radio


broadcasts of statements and speeches of US citizens
such as those by US POWs in Hanoi, Jane Fonda,
and Ramsey Clarke.

SUBJECT: DCS Domestic Activity

To the best of my knowledge, DCS has not engaged in any


activity outside the CIA charter or that could be construed as
illegal. Some of the functions that we perform under HR l-13f
(i) of providing operational support within the US to all
elements of CIA and to the USIB-member agencies, however, are
perhaps borderline or could be construed as illegal if mis-
interpreted. For example:

5. Collect information on possible foreign involvement


or penetration of US dissident groups, but only ina
passive manner and only when the source has ·refused
to pass the information directly to the FBI.

6. Collect information on the narcotics trade, but again


only in a passive manner when the source has refused to
pass the information directly to BNDD or the FBI.

SUBJECT Activity Related to Domestic Events

1. OCI provided current intelligence briefings


to John Mitchell as Attorney General. with the approval
of the DCI, this practice began in the pre-inaugural
period in New York and continued until Mr. Mitchell's
resignation as Attorney General. The OCI officer
assigned to this duty had a daily appointment with Mr.
Mitchell in his office at Justice"

2. The briefings provided were strictly on foreign


intelligence, and were a legitimate service for CIA to
provide to an official advisor to the Pres"ident. who sat
on, among other bodies, the 40 Committee. It must be
presumed, however, that our man's daily visits were
known and speculated on elsewhere in Justice. The
problem comes in the potential press treatment: "CIA
Officer in Continuous Contact with Mitchell."

FROM Director of Current Intelligence

SUBJECT Activity Related to Domestic Events

1. OCI began following Caribbean black radicalism


in earnest in 1968. The emphasis of our analysis was on
black nationalism as a political force iP the Caribbean
and as a threat to the security of the Caribbean states.
Two DDI memoranda were produced on the subject: "Black
Radicalism in the Caribbean" <,6 August 1969), and "Black
Radicalism in the Caribbean--Another Look" (12 June 1970).
In each a single paragraph was devoted to ties with the
US black power movement; the discussion primarily concerned
visits of Stokely Carmichael and other Us black power
activists to the Caribbean and other overt contacts.

2. In June 1970, Archer Bush of OCI was asked to


write a memorandum with special attention to links be-
tween black radicalism in the Caribbean and advocates of
black power in the us. The record is not clear where
this request originated, but it came through channels
from the DCI. The pape-r was to be treated as especially
sensitive and was to include material provided by the
Special Operations group of the CI Staff. The CI Staff
material was voluminous but did not provide meaningful
evidence of important links between militant blacks in
the US and the Caribbean. This, in fact, was one of
the·conc1usions of the paper. The memorandum was produced
in typescript form and given to the DCI.

00188
SEC~'if

3. For several months in the first half of 1968


the Caribbean Branch wrote periodic typescript memoranda ..
on Stokely Carmichael's travels abroad during a period
when he had dropped out of public view. Our recollection
is that the memoranda were for internal CIA use only,
although a copy of one was inadvertently sent to the FBI.

SUBJECT Activity Related to Domestic Events

1. In late spring of 1968 Walt Rostow, then


Special Assistant to the President for National Security
Affairs, tasked the DCI with undertaking a survey of
worldwide student dissidence. Confronted by ~mult at
campuses like Columbia and mindful of the violence
accompanying· student outbursts at Berlin's Free University
and elsewhere, Rostow sought to learn whether youthful
dissidence was interconnected: spawned by the same causes;
financed and hence manipulated by forces or influences
hosti~to the interests of the US and its allies; or likely
to come under inimical sway to the detriment of US interests.

2. The paper was pr~pared byl 10f OCI


with the assistance of the CA and CI Staffs . . The DDI,
DIOCI, and I ~et with Rostowto elicit the reasons
for his or cue PLesxueht's concerns and to agree on the
sources to be examined,'the research methods to be followed,
etc.

3. written during the summer of 1968, the most


sensitive version of Re·s:t:le·ss· Youth comprised two sections.
The first was a philosophical treatment of student unrest,
its motivation, historY, and tactics. This section drew
heavily on overt literature and FBI reporting on Students
for a Democratic Society and affiliated.groups. In a sense,
the survey of dissent emerged from a shorter (30 pagel
typescript study of SDS and its foreign ties the same
author had done for Mr. Rostow at the nCI' s request in 00190
December 1967. (We no longer have a coPy· 1

4. Because of the paucity of information on foreign
student movements, it was necessary to focus on SDS which
then monopolized the field of student action here and .
abroad. A second section comprised 19 country chapters--
ranging from Argentina to Yugoslavia--and stood by itself
as a review of foreign student dissidence.

5. Because SDS was a" domestic organization, the


full paper" "Res'tl'e"ss You"th, including the essay on world-
wide dissent went only to nine readers. A copy may be
in the Johnson Library.

6. Following the paper's favorable reception by


the President and Mr. Rostow, the DCI briefed the NSC
on student dissent. The sensitive version subsequently
was updated and sent to the White House "~n February 1969.

7. The less sensitive text was disseminated in


September 1968 and then updated and issued again in
March 1969 and August 1970.

FROM Director of Current Intelligence

SUBJECT Activity Related to Domestic Events

1. In late: 1967 OCI participated in the preparation


of several short intelligence memoranda dealing with the
foreign connections of US organizations and activists in-
volved in the anti-war movement. The main purpose of
these reports, prepared at the request of the White House,
was to determine whether any links existed between inter-
national Communist elements or foreign governments and .the
American peace movement. The conclusion reached was that
there was some evidence of ad hoc contacts between anti-
war activists at home and abroad but no evidence of
direction or formal coordination.

2. In October 1967 President Johnson expressed


interest in this subject and ordered a high level inter-
departmental survey •. In response to his personal request.
to the DCI, Mr. Helms asked the CI Staff to collect what-
ever information was available through our own sources and
through liaison with the FBI and to pass it to OCI, which
was directed to prepare a memorandum from the DCI to' the
President.

3. A book message requirement was sent to all stations


to report whatever information was on hand relevant to this
subject. Although agent reports on Communist front opera-
tions overseas were of some value, the primary source of
information on the 'activities of US activists--and that was
quite limited--was sensitive intercepts produced by NSA,
which had been similarly tasked by the White House.

4. A draft memorandum was jointly prepared by


OCI and CI Staff and forwarded to the DCI. He passed
this typescript memo, dated 15 November 1967, to the
President personally. The White House copy is now in
the files of President Johnson's papers at the library
in Austin.

5. Brief follow-up memoranda were prepared and


forwarded to the White House on 21 December and 17
January 1968. According to our best recollection, no
further finished intelligence reports on international
connections of the peace movement were produced.

SUBJECT: Contacts with David Young

1. In the summer of 1972, I had frequent


contacts with David Young. He was in this
building under my control once. These contacts
related solely to Executive Order 11652 and the
NSC directive concerned therewith. Young was
apparently at the time in the process of drafting
the NSC directive. The visit to the building
under my control was for a briefing on CRS processes
for storage and retrieval of documents and is
apparently reflected in the paragraph of the
directive concerned with the Data Index. I visited
him in his White House office at least twice in
the company of an inter-Agency group concerned
with the Data Index.

2. In August of 1972, r lalso


visited Mr. Young's office in cne company of an
inter-Agency group to'discuss CIA compliance with
the data index instructions. To the best of my
knowledge no one in CRS had any contact with
Mr. Young in his role as a "plumber."

SUBJECT: Involvement In Domestic

1. This memorandum responds to the DDI's


request for a listing of any questionable
involvements in domestic affairs. I do not believe
that CRS is doing anything that a reasonable
man could construe as improper.

2. CRS does, of course, have several programs


to acquire still pictures, movies, videotapes

3. CRS files do not generally bear on U.S.


citizens or organizations. The biographic file-
building criteria specifically excludes U.S.
nationals unless the person has become of such
major importance in the political life of a foreign
country that the file is essential. To m knowledge,
onl 2 ersons so ualif •

SUBJECT: Involvement In Domestic Affairs

4. The CIA Library has several informal


snag files intended to aid the librarians in
answering the kinds of questions that they know
they will get on a continuing basis. An
appointments file is a collection of clippings
on appointed federal officials: who holds what
job when and what is his background? The extremist
files are a collection of folders on a variety
of organizations and a few people with intricate
organizational links. Any sort of extremism
is grist for these particular files., And a few
persons, e.g., Rap Brown and Eldridge Cleaver,
have dossiers consisting almost exclusively of
clippings from public media. These files are
unclassified and consist mostly of clippings
from the public press: U.S., foreign, underground,
scholarly.

5. I am not aware of any other kind of


involvement in domestic activities that is not
related to development of techniques or logistics

MEMORANDUM FOR: DDI

SUBJECT Sensitive Activities

1. FBIS has been engaged in no activities related to the Ellsberg


and Watergate cases.
- :
2. FBIS operations occasionally extend to the domestic arena. From
time to time, FBIS linguists are made available to DDO or Office of
Communications components for special operations (usually abroad) involving
close-support SIGINT work or translation of audio take. On one occasion
recently DDO, on behalf of the FBI, requested the services of several
FBIS linguists skilled in Arabic to work directly~for the FBI on a short-
term project here in Washington. The arrangements were made by Mr. Oberg
of the DDO CI Staff. He said the project was very highly classified and
D
that FBIS participation was approved by Mr. Colby and the Director. FBIS
participation was approved by the Director of FBIS after a check with
the ADDI. Other examples of sensitive linguistic support work are help
in the handling and resettlement of defectors, the recent assignment of
an employee to the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs to transcribe
recordings in a rare Chinese dialect, and the detailing of another
Chinese linguist on two occasions to assist in the U.S. military training
of Chinese Nationalist cadets.

3. Within its responsibility for monitoring press agency trans-


missions for intelligence information, FBIS publishes and distributes
some material which falls in a "gray" area of copyright protection, libel,
and privacy of international communications. Pre~s services controlled
by national governmen~~ and transmitted by radioteletype without
specific addressees,e:.g. the Soviet TASS service and the PRC's NCNA,
are monitored by FBIS and the material is disseminated without restric-
tion. The legality of this has been affirmed by decisions of the
Office of General Counsel. I

4. The routine FBIS monitoring of foreign radio broadcasts often
involves statements or speeches made by U.S. citizens using those radio
facilities. Examples are statements made or allegedly made by American
POW's in Hanoi, by Jane Fonda in Hanoi and by Ramsey Clark in Vietnam.
At the request of FBI and the Department of Justice, and with the
approval of the CIA Office of General Counsel, we have on occasion sub-
mitted transcripts of such broadcasts to the Department of Justice as
part of that Department's consideration of a possible trial. In such
cases, we have been required to submit names of FBIS monitors involved,
presumably because of the possibility they might be required as witnesses.
(In one case in 1971, an FBIS staff employee was directed to appear as
an expert witness in the court-martial of a Marine enlisted man charged
with aiding the enemy in a broadcast from Hanoi.) FBIS views all this
. with misgivings. Monitoring of such broadcasts is incidental and we
ru~ attribution of their news to FBIS, and we should not be considered
policemen maintaining surveillance of traveling Americans.

::-"1EMOR.:\NDLnA FOR: . DeFuty Dir0ctor for Sc~"c:ncc & Technology

1. Te'7hnical Services Division's charter (CSI 1-8) requires


that it provide technical assistance to both CIA operations a.nd
other activities as Inay be directed by tl:.c D';;i.)uty Direct·)!' for
Operations.

2. Over the years the chief non-CIA recipients of this


support have been the Departrnent of Defense, the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous
Drugs, I1nlnigration and Natura.lization S,:-rvice, Departn1.ent
of State, United States Postal Service, Secret Service, Agency
for International Developmen"t, and the \V"hite House.

3. While varying widely among the different recipients, these


services have included training and lnaterials, and in a few in-
stances participation in the fields of audio and visual surveillance,
secret writing and related communications, personal protection,
alias docmuentationand questioned document examination, disguise,
conceahnent devices, electronic beaconry, illicit narcotics detec-
tion, and counter- sabotage /terrorism.

4. In most instances requirements for this support are


·received by TSD through higher echelons (Office of the Director'
or Deputy Director for Operations). Unless the service involved
is a t:dvial or continuing one, the request is referred to the
Foreign Intelligence Staff Departmental Coordination Group for
coordina tion and approval at the appropriate Agency levels.
Approval within TSDby the Chief of Operations or Development
and Engineering and the Chief of TSD or his Deputy also is re-
quired.

5. The ,attachment lists the primary services provided to


th~ organizations named in Paragraph two.

7. Unless ordered o:h..:::c,v:'sc by higher Agency aU:~l.)rity,


no U. S. docUluentatiori is issued by TSD Headquarters ""rithout
prior coordination with the Office of Security. and the Central
Cover Staff. TSD Regional Bases require at least the valida.-
tion of U. S. documentation requests by the COS, or his
designated ,'c:->resentative, of t!lC rf.:qucsting Station. Because
it could be usedl lno
U~ S. Birth Certincatels ISsued WIthout approval or me vvd .
via Central Cover Staff. Backstopped luajor credit cards are
issued by Office of Security, not TSD.

8. Provision of forged docun"li:mtation to non-DDO requesters,


whether they be CIA or other Agency requesters, always requires·
approval of non-TSD offices. Support to the military for instance
\vould be validated by FI Staff/Departmental Coordination Group
at HeaCiquarters or by the COS overseas having responsibility for
coordination of the operation. BNDD requests are coordinated
with DDO/NARCOG. Requests for documentation of Immigration
'and Naturalization Service is coordinated via the Alien Affairs
Staff.

9. Authentication items are issued all. a loan basis and must


be returned to TSD or acco~mted for. After any documentation has
been issued, TSDretains photographs and records of such support
until the documentation has been returned to TSD. If the material
is not ieturnedafter a reasonable time, the requester is reminded
of the outstal:Iding documentation.

SUBJECT: Contacts with Dc;nestic Police Organizations

1. In Dec.~er 1963, July 1969 ~nd December 1970, SDB


provided basic countersabotage familiarization training for
selected members of the Washington metropolitan area police
departments. The training vlas given at the Fairfax County
police pistol and rifle range.' Authorization for the train-
ing came from DDP and Chi~f, Office of Security.

2 •. On occasion during the past fe\v years, under the


auspices of the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration of
the Department of Justice and ''lith the approval of CI Staff
and' Off5.ce of. Sec-uri ty, SUB provided t:raining and familiari-
zation to police officers of several domestic police
depar~uents in the uses of the Explosives Residue Detection
Technique and Trace Me~als Detection Technique. These tech-
niques had been declassified and are ·currently available to
the law enforcement community. The National Bomb Data Center
pUblishes periodic g-uidance in their uses '.

3. In order to augment the SDB mission responsibilities


in.the field of countersabotage and counterterror,SDB offi-
cers have in the past two years visited, under appropriate
covers, the explosives disposal units of the New York City
police department, Dade County (Miw~i) Florida Dept. and the
Los Angeles Police Dept. Also, in Harch 1973, two SDB offi-
cers attended ·.the Explosives' and Ordnance Disposal Conference
in Sacramento, California, sponsored by LEAA~ When the
recent letter bomb menace began in September 1972, our liaison
with the NYCPD bomb squad paid off in that we had complete in-
formation on letter bomb construction in hours, 'enabling the
-?\gency to make worldwide disseminatio 'thin a da '

.DOMESTIC TESTS FOR


AGENCY RESEARCH AND DEVELOP~ffiNT EFFORTS.

1. As a normal part of ORn's efforts in the


research and development of equipment and techniques
fdr Ag~nct·a~plication~·in foreign intelligence, we
conduct experiments and tests in the United States.
·J~n,
;'.
Clearly, the design and development of our intelli- ~: ~
gence equipments can be done more eConomically and i.; ii,,~·-·

more securely in this country. Although most of


"the tests of our R&D equipments are performed in ~
·closed laboratories or. in secure areas simulating
the foreign environment, some of the tests and experi-
ments,ofnecessity,~eve~ldomestic information.

2. A review of the surveillance equipment or


·techniques which have at some· time or other been
exposed to domestic te~ting is as follows:
a. Laser Probe - About 1967, the laser
probe· de\lelope-dlry--ORD was tested by TSD in
San Francisco under·very close·ly controlled
conditions. The ORn Projec.tOff-icer witnessed
portions of the test: ..• Recordings that '.. ere··
ma:de of laseT prbbe;output were 'carefully
controlled as cla~sified material and it is
beIievedthat the·,tapes have long since been
destroyed ~;~ ..

SUBJECT: Policy Regarding Aisistance to Agencies
Outside the Intellige.nce COffi1lEmity /In
Spe~ch Processing PToble~s

.. . ;. .
.'.
. ..:~i·

1. Recent publict::Ohcern over Agency af{i~iations ,


with law enforcement activities has made me wary of offering,
speech processing assistaqce to various rither government ,_
agencies. My concernhere,'i,s restricted to government
activities outside the intelligence community. 'Because
ofa scientific communitya'varenessof the expertise. of
,m.embers of, GEL in speech' processing problems , Ke are often
, asked by individuals ingovernmcnt· for help on various '
speech problems. The requests are usually informal on a
person-to-person basis. While most of these contacts
involve only an exchange of unclassified inforination~
several have involved the use -of labriratory reSources.
2. Co'ntacts havecoine.from the FBI, Attorney
General's office" Bureau of , Narcotics and Dangerous
prugs (BNDD), Post Office, and the Treasury Department •
. Of the above, assistancetoBNDD had been specifically·
san,ctioned by Mr. Helms. In one recent instance \'lhere a'
noisy tape was to be used ..in a court case, care was taken-
to· insure that the processing of the t.ape \vasdone entirely
by. a BNDD ,employeeeven:though it ,,-as done in an Agency
laboratory ·us iug the -Agen.cy' s Coherent Spectrum Shaper
equipmen t . - , . .

particularly allegations that we are· enga,ed. in extensive domest.ic

a ,senior team to meet with Chairman· Nedzi and clearly outline what we
do and do not do in the United States. The Executive Director

which Howard Hunt signed said that he will be acknowled~ed as an
Agency employee. His ass{tion that he is not bound by the·agreement
because we did in fact acknowledge his employment here is therefore
ill-advised.

The Director noted a call from Elliot Richardson asking about


sane information that Seymour Hersh has developed to the effect that "
HEW automatically prOVides the Agency with travel orders on its
employees and that this agreement was made in Secretary Ribicofi" s
time. The DDIwill determine what this is about and advise.

in Camp Peary.

which would lead Seymour Hersh to allege that we have a map-making
facility in Vermont.

allegations that the Phoenix program was supported by contract assassins.

concept of the Agency getting involved with the. police even in an
innocuous way.. Maury added that he will see Chairman Holifield's
staff assistant Herbert Roback today. Maury said that a stement had
been transmitted to the White House yesterday for John Ehrlichman's
possible use (attached). The Director asked that a contingency
document be prepared along the'lines that we will continue to comply
with the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 which
approves of our assistance to various police forces when ~
authorized by the Justice Department. In response to the DDI's
suggestions, .' the DDS will review what assistance to police forces
had been g~ven prior to 1968 and advise.

to keep all congressional elements happy and that we face a period
of increaa,edcriticism from this quarter which must be met with
firm assurances that what we are b~ing criticized for is fully
authorized and justified. Unless the facts justify such a statement,
we 'wouldbe well advised to terminate the ~tivity in question,•

. Mauryreealled that we are obligated to sit down With


Chairman,Nedzi and review what we do and don't do in the 'U.S. (see
Monning Minutes of _lM 18' and 19 January). The Director
concurred. TheDDI suggested that we undertake anin-hou'se review
of what it. is <we are doing within the U.S. and identify and
e liminatethe marginal.

Maury. said he spent an hour yesterday with Congressman Holifield


- arid they decided to have their respective staffs work on a letter for
Holifie~d to send to the Director suggesting restrictive, but not
prohibitive, guidlines regarding such activities,in.the futtire.
Maury noted Chairman Nedzi's current- concerns about this topic and
said the proposed mMMM letter may satisfy hisw0l'ries..

14 February 1973

Thuermer noted advice from Hicholas Horrock"of Newsweek that


a '.'sof'tstory" is floating around Newsweek on thEfgenera1 topic of
-po;Litica1 espionage and ex-CIA agents. Mr. Horrock asked' what
_constraints we have on former employees •. A lengthy discussion
followed, notirig in particular that the only legal constraint
" imposed is the terminal secrecy agreement as reinforced by the ~
cou~s in the Marchetti case. Other than this, there are no constraint
except moral ones. Th'trmer will advise Horrickthat thousands. of
employees have gone through CIA, and it is a matter .cif considerable
pride that only a handlflul have deported themselves improperly.

muzzle Adams is false. He went on to brief onJ I

SUBJECf Use of Disguise Materials and Alias Doaunentation
Within the U.s.
REFERENCE Memo dtd 30 May 73 to UI'R fin I ~ubj :
Issuance of Disguise Materials for Probable Use
Within U. S. or It I S Territories

1. The Associate Deputy Director for Operations has asked


that we give you a detailed report of the actual use that the Office
of Training has made within the u.s. of all disguise materials and
alias doctnnentation we have obtained for our staff members and students.
2. Disguise ~~terials
, .
OTR has obtained from ars disguise materials - including
glasses, \'1igs, mustaches, and special shoes to increase height - for
, 12 staff instructors at the Domestic Training Station. ,The purpose of
these materials is to increase the difficulty that students in the Basic
Operations Course and Advanced Operations Course will have in recognizing
instructors during problems and exercises conductedi: ~ear
urs. Exercises include surveillance, cotmtersurveial1ce, orusn passes,
and dead drop problems in which instructors monitor student activity.
These exercises are run tmder carefully controlled conditions only in
areas where adequate liaison exists with local authorities to avoid any
flap should difficulty arise during an exercise.

00313
" .
.

The sole use of disguise materials by these instructors


has been or will be in support of the training exercise noted above.
At no time have the materials been used for other purposes.
3. Alias Documents
U.S. alias doCtDllentsconsisting primarily of business and
social cards, but also including drivers' licenses and social securi
cards, have been used for more than a year by students
3. ,
art of the
e conc US3.on 0 e course, tea 3.as
curnen s are co ecte rom the students and returned to ars. Again,
these dOCl.DTlent.s are used only under carefully controlled conditions in an
environment I ~here adequate liaison with local authorities exists
to contain any flap; and the documentsuare used only for the purposes stated.
4. A thorough canvass of all elements of OTR discloses no other
instance in recent years in which we have used disguise materials or alias
doctunentation within the U.S. or obtained such materials for that purpose.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: John Dean Allegations to Newsweek Magazine

1. Mr. William Jorden, the Latin American referent


on Dr. Kissinger I s Staff, called today in reference to State
cable No. 11 2189, dated 11 June (attached). He said that he
had specific reference to paragraph 2 of that cable and would
like to have "everything and anything we know" on that subject
in the Agency.

2. The undersigned indicated to Mr. Jorden that he


had checked out the allegation that some low level White House
officials had considered assassinating Torrijos when the story
first appeared in Newsweek ang, despite checking outside WH
Division also, could find ~o 'one in the Agency who could
recollect or find anything relating to such a plan on the part
of any portion of U. S. officialdom. I told him that I felt sure
that nothing of this nature had come to WH Division's attention
because f~r the period in question I had been Deputy Chief of
WH Division and had heard nothing about any such plan. Mr.
Jorden asked if the Agency knew anything about Howard Hunt
having had a team in Mexico "before the mission was aborted"
and I indicated that as far as I knew, the Agency had no infor-
mation on Hunt being in Mexico on such a mission. I also
indicated, however, they couldhave been and the Agency might
well not know it simply because he could have used an alias and
he is an American citizen, which is outside the Agency's
province and really the FBI's business. I suggested that it
might be best if he checked the FBI on that particular angle.
Subsequently I checked with Mr. William V. Broe, the IG,
and Mr. John Horton, recently returned I
~I===========---

00317
I •

• I r'

and both indicated that they had not run across any information
concerning this latter allegation of Hunt and a team in Mexico
on a mission related to Panama.

3. It was apparent that Mr. Jorden was under some


pr~ssure to refute these allegations and was casting about in
aU" directions to make as certain of his ground as he possibly
could before he tried to do so;

MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

On this date Mr. William E. Colby and the writer held a


meeting with Congressman Lucien N. Nedzi. The reason for the
••• ~ w.,'
n'leeting was to review with the Congressman material sent us by
the Directorates describing the Agency activities that had flap
potential. ,

. At the outset, Mr. Colby advised that the Director had issued
instructions to each directorate to come forward with descriptions
of activities (especially involved in the domestic Bcene) that had flap
potential. In addition. in a memorandum to all employees of the CIA,
the Director had instructed all employees to report to him any
activities the Agency was conducting that they construed as outside
,the Agency charter. Congressman Nedzi requested a copy of this
Agency notice be furnished to him.

The full report, including the sensitive section, was discussed


with the Congressman item-by-item and in most cases he actually
read the text. This took two hours and the Congressman followed
the material with great care.
,
With regard to the item concerning Mr. 'McCord's letters to the·
Agency in' July and December 1972 and January 1973, he expressed
.astonishment that the material took so long to be surfaced and when
surfaced took so long to get to the Director. He was very outspoken
in ~l:S criticism of the people involved.

I will not try to set forth all his reactions to the material. which
I believe he found sobering, but I will set out hereinafter the items in
which he showed special interest:

a. Alien documentation furnished to the Secret Service.


He desired more information concerning the reason why
issued, the use, and how controlled.

01
I
J

b. Financial support to the White House in connecticn


with the replies to letters and telegrams as a result of the
President's speech on C,ambodia in 1970. He requested
more information on this subject.

c. Beacons furnished Ambassadors. He was interested


in the number issued to Ambassadors and the position the State
Department took on the use of these beacons. He was interested
if the Department of State was pushing this program, as he
believed they should.Qt.

d. Logistics' acquisition of police equipment. He


questioned whether LEAA. Department of Justice, should
not be doing this rather than the Agency.

e. He noted Logistics furnished telephone analyzers, and


desired to know what they were and how used.

f. I
L- ----J!
g. OER'a crash project concerning Robert L. Vesco
requested by the DCI.The Congressman was interested in who
outside the Agency instigated the project and why was it stopped.

h. Several ORD projects indicated research done without ,


knOWledge of the host system or on unwitting subjects. He was
of the opinion that this was risky and recommended it be
terminated. He stated he would like to see a directive go out
to the researchers concerning these practices.

i. John Dean's request re Investors Overseas Service.


He reviewed the six reports that had been furnished. He noted,
however, that the item stated "there were multiple channels
to the Agency from the White House" and requested information
concerning these channels.

j. Alien passports. Mr. Colby advised that he planned


to review this whole subject and the Congressman agreed with
the need to do so.

- 2 -
'.
(

The" Congressman noted that in connection with John McCone's


consultative role with the Agency the Director had stated some time
in the past that he planned to take action regarding individuals in this
category. The Congressman requested a report on what had been done.

Mr. Nedzi asked Mr. Colby if the Agency had considered how
much of the information just reviewed with him could be made public.
Mr. Colby stated this had n?tbeen doneyet, and~'poke to the question
of S'O\1'l'Ces, meth_s, an.dt"dmpact on~the instit\li~n. The~ngress­
man stated that in the current climate he felt it was necessary to open
up more information to help clear the air. Mr. Colby stated the Agency
would give the matter deep consideration. and added he had been think-
ing of a general statement along these lines to be used at his confirrn'ation
hearing.

The meeting ended at lZ o'clock noon.

see whether there was any danger in the Agency1s covert sources if
the Mexican part of the investigation continued and ascertained that
no one helieved that this was the case. No one had any knowledge of
the plan to bug the Democratic National COii:1Htee.
On June 26 the Counsel to the Pr2sident John Dean calledcme and
asked me to come and see him about the matter I had discussed with
Haldeman and Ehrlichman. He said I could ~heck with Ehrlichman and
I did. He said I could talk to Dean so I went to Dean's office at
1145 on June 26.

I informed Dean that I had ch8cked can:fully to s'~~: ',;.'h,::;ther

possible. I knew that the J.\gency had had no part in the operation
against the Democratic National Committee. I therefore could not
say that further investigation would jeopardize Age~cy sources. I
felt that someone had bungled badly and that the responsible parties
should be fired. He asked w~ether there was not soma way in which
the Agency might have been involved. I said that I had checked with
Director Helms and was convinced it was not. Any attempt to stifle
this investig~tion would destroy the effectiveness of the Agency and

MEMORANDUM FOR ALL CIA EMPLOYEES '.: -' ..~}.

1. Recent press reports outline in detail certain alleged CIA


activities with respect to Mr. Howard Hunt and other parties. The
presently known facts behind these stories are those stated in the
attached draft of a statement I will be making to the Senate Committee
on Appropriations on 9 May. As can be seen, the Agency provided
limited assistance in response to a request by senior officials. The
Agency has cooperated with and made available to the appropriate law
enforcement bodies information about these activities and will con-
tinueto do so.
2. All CIA employees should understand my attitude on this
type of issue. I shall do everything in my power to confine CIA
activities to those which fall within a strict interpretation of its
legislative charter. I take this position because I am determined
that the law shall be respected and because this is the best way to
i.. foster the legitimate and necessary contributions we in CIA can make
to the national security of the United States.
3. I am taking several actions to implement this objective:
I have ordered all the senior operating officials of this
Agency to report to me immediately on any activities now
going on, or that have gone on in the past, which might
be construed to be outside the legislative charter of this
Agency.
I hereby direct every person presently employed by
CIA to report to me on any such activities of which he
has knowledge. I invite all ex-employees to do the same.
Anyone who has such information should call my secretary
(extension 6363) and say that he wishes to talk to me
about Itactivities outside CIA's charter. 1t

OPENING STATEMENT

Mr. ChairmaIT, I am here to discuss the questions which have. arisen


over CIA's real and alleged role in events that occurred in 1971 and 1972.
I have opened a detailed investigation into the precise nature of that role.
I can report ~O you on \'/hatAgency records, now being intensively reviewed,
reveal at this juncture. However I do not yet know that I have all the
facts in the matter. Nonetheless, I am p1~ased to present to you such facts
'" I will certainly provide you with any further
as are now available, and
details as they come to my attention.
Let me start. with the Agency's relationship with Mr. Howard Hunt,
whose testimony has recently been made public. Mr. Hunt was a staff
employee of the Agency .from 8 November 1949 to 30 April 1970. At that time
n2 retired from the Agency. He performed one editorial job of writing up
a recommendation for an award for one of our offi cers, i nNovember 1970.
He was not pai~ for these services, although the Agency placed the sums of
$200.00 and $50.00 in two charitable nrganizations for. the service performed.
In early J~ly 1971, General Cushman, then the Deputy Director of
Central Intelligence, received a telephone call from the White Hous~. He
was informed that Mr. Hunt had become a consultant on security affairs for
the White House, and a request was·made that Mr. Hunt receive assistance
from the Agency. The minutes of the Agency Morning Meeting of 8 July 1971
indicate that the DDCI (General Cushman) reported a call by John Ehrlichman
stating that HmoJard Hunt had been appointed a Hhite House security consultant.
On 22 JUly 1971 Mr. Hunt visited General Cushman at the CIA building.
According to the records, Mr. Hunt stated that he had been charged with a
highly sensitive mission by the White House to visit and elicit information

00420
·,
"
-2-

from an individual whose ideology he was not entirely sure of s and for that
purpose he s'aid he \vas asked to come to the Agency to see if he could get
two things: identification documents in alias and some degree of physical
disguise, for a one-time operation. He stressed that he wanted the matter
to be held as closely as possible and that he would like to meet the Agency
people in an Agency safehouse. Agency records indicate that, in the course
of the conversation, Mr. ~unt referred to Mr. Ehrlichman by name and General
Cushman acknowledged an earlier call from Mr. Ehrlichman to him. The
Committee may desire to query General Cushman whose knowledge would not .. ,

come from such secondary sources.


General Cushman directed the appropriate technical service of the
Agency to be of assistance to Mr. 'Hunt, based on the above request. On
23 July 1971 Mr. Hunt was given alias documents, including a Social Security
card, driver1s litense, and several association membership cards, in the
name of "Ed~vard Joseph Harren" similar to material he had been furnished
for operational use while he had been an Agency employee, under the name
of "~dward V. Hamilton." The same day Mr. Hunt was also given disguise
materials (a wig, glasses, and a speech alteration device).
By calling an un.listed telephone number given him, Mr. Hunt arranged
several additional meetings \'/ith Agency technical officers, the dates of which
cannot be provided with precision. In these, he requested and was provided.
a commercial tape recorder (in a typewriter case) and a commercial Tessina
camera disguised in a tobacco pouch. He also brought in a then-unidentified
associate (later identified from press photos as Mr. G. Gordon Liddy) and
secured for him a disguise (wig and glasses) and alias documents in the name
of "George F. leonard."
004 c9.0 0-

The Agency~echnical officers met these requests despite the absence

,,
of the procedural steps and approvals normally required by Agency regulations ..
However, they became increasingly concerned at the escalation of Mr. Hunt's
requests for. assistance.
, ?':'" .
These finally inc1uded,a request from Mr. Hunt to
.'

be met on the morning of 27 August 1971, upon his return from California,
to have a film developed and returned to bim. This was done the same day.
He also asked for a New YOrk mail address and telephone-answering service
for operational use.
The technical officers raised their concern with senior officers~

who noted the possibility that these activities could involve the Agency in
operations outside it$ proper functions. As a result, again according to
Agency records, General Cushman telephoned Mr. Ehrlichman at the White House
on 27 August 1971 and explained that further such assistance could not be
given. Mr. Ehrlichman agreed. The request for mail address and telephone
answering service was not honored. On 31 August 1971, Mr. Hunt contacted
, ,
the technical officers again, requesting a credit card, but this was refused.
Mr. ·Hunt had also made a request on 18 August 1971 for the assignment of
a secretary he had known during his Agency career. This was also refused. The
earlier-furnished alias documents and other material were not recovered, hO~lever~

except for the Tessina camera which was returned on 27 August as unsuitable.
Since the end of August 1971, the Technical Services Division has had no
further association with Mr. Hunt. As a point of reference, I would note
that the break-in of the office of Mr. Ellsberg's psychiatrist took place
on or about 3 September 1971.

The Agency -Outlined the above events to Mr. Patrick Gray, Acting
Director of the FBI, in letters dated 5and 7 July 1972~ and a meeting on
28 July 1972. A series of questions were asked the Agency on 11 October 1972
by 'N~· Earl Silber-t,
."
PrinG,~J Assistar;ij:...
Unite~?,~tes AtE9J.;Piey
, .
for the
District of Columbia. On 24 October 1972, Attorney General Kleindienst and
Assistant Attorney General Petersen revie~ied the 5 and 7'July transmittals
together with additional, more detailed but undated materials, that had been
provided to Acting FBI Director Gray on 18 October 1972. The Agency is
aware that this material was reviewed on 27 November 1972 by Mr. Silbert, who
asked additional questions on that date as well as on 29 November 1972.
Written responses to the foregoing questions were provided on 13 December 1972.
An additional submission was made to the Assistant Attorney· General Petersen
on 21 December 1972. This material was discussed at a meeting held with
Assistant Attorney General Petersen and Mr. Silbert on 22 December 1972.
All of the foregoing materials can be made available to the Committee if it
so desires.
As a separate matter, \·thich vIas not known by those who prepared the
material for the Department of Justice in the fall of last year~ the Office
~f Medical Services of the Agency prepared and forwarded to the White House
two indirect personality assessments of Mr. Daniel Ellsberg. The Agency has
had a program of producing, on a selective basis, such assessments or studies
on foreign 'leaders for many years. In July 1971 Mr. Helms, then Director,
instructed Agency officers to work with Mr. David Young of the White House
Staff relative to security leaks in the intelligence community.
, ,

-5-

Nr. Young requested a study on rr-lr. Ellsberg in the latter part of


I July 1971, which Agency activity was apparently approved by Mr. Helms.
At that time~ Mr. Young supplied raw material consisting principally of
newspaper and magazine articles together with some State Department and
Justice Department papers. The first assessment delivered to the Hhite House
dated 9 August 1971, was judged insufficient. As a resu1t~ there were
several meetings between pro Mal10y~ Mr. Hunt, and Mr. Liddy, in which
classified information of the Justice and State Departments was introduced.
One such meeting occurred on 12 August 1971. Additional material ~qS

transmitted by Mr. Hunt on 12 October, and another meeting was held on


27 October. These meetings led to a second version of the assessment,
dated 9 November 1971. This document was delivered to the Executive Office
by Or. Malloy on 12 November 1971. Agency records 'indicate that Mr. Helms
had previously communicated with Mr. Young indicating he had read both
reports.
~
In another contact "about October 1971," an Agency officer arranged
to provide Hr. Hunt certain unclassified materials from CIA files relative
to a 1954 French case of leakage of Government documents. These were
delivered to 'his office at the White House.
In closing, I would like to stress several conclusions of my
investi~ation so far:
a. CIA had no awareness of the details of t1r. Hunt s I

activities. The Agency's impression was that Mr. Hunt was engaged
in an activity related to identifying and closing off the security
leaks that were so much a preoccupation of the Gqvernment at the time.
00422
-6-

b. The Agency clearly was insufficiently cautious in the


initiation of its assistance to Mr. Hunt. Later, when the nature of
Mr. Hunt's requests for assistance began to indicate a possible active
involvement by the Agency'in activities beyond its charter, the
Agency terminated the relationship and refused further assistance.
c. The preparation of a profile qn an American citizen under
these circumstances lies beyond the normal activity of the Agency.
~

It shall not be repeated -- and I have so instructed the staff. This


shall be made a part of the regulations governing such activities .
d.
.
As Director, I have called for' a review of all Agency
activities and the termination of any which might be considered
outside its legitimate charter. In addition to requesting this
review from my subordinates, I have directed each employee and invited
each ex-employee to submit to me any cases \vhich they may question.
I am determined that the Agency will not engage in activities outside
of its ~larter but will concentrate its energies on its important
intel1igence mission.

SUBJ}~CT: Potentially Embarrassing Agency Activities

~le Office of the Inspector General has records on the


following sensitive subjects that either have been or might in
the· future be the source of embarrassment to the Agency.

The report of the Board of Inquiry in the case of Hans Tofte.


The Tofte affair was fully exposed in public, of course, but
the report itself is closely held within the Agency. This
office was designated as the' custodian of the report, and we
have the only surviving copy.

An annex to the Inspector General's report of survey of the


Technical Services Division done in 1963. The annex deals
with experiments in influencing human behavior through the
administration of mind or personality alteril~ drugs to
unwitting subjects.

An Inspector General report of investigation of allegations


that the Agency was instrumental in bringi~1 about the
assassination of President Diem. The allegations were
determined to be without foundation.

An Inspector General report of investigation of allegations


that the Agency was instrumental in bringing about the
assassination of President Trujillo. The investigation
disclosed quite extensive Agency involvement with the
plotters.

An Inspector General report of investigation of allegations


that the Agency conspired to assassinate Fidel castro. The
story first appeared in Drew Pearson I s column and has since
appeared in Jack Anderson's column. Hhile the columns
contained many factual errors, the allegations are basically
true.

OCI began following Caribbean black radicalism in earnest in


1968. Two p.apers '-Tere produced on the subject, one in August 1969
sud the other in June 1970.

OCI was asked in June 1970 to \lrite a memo 'W'ith special


attention to links bet.teen black l'aclicalism in the Caribbean and
advoca tes of black power in the US. The memo was produced in
typescript and given to the DCI.

OCI in 1968 wrote periodic typescript memos on Stokely


Carmichael's travels abroad during a period when he had dropped
from public view.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Mr. W. E. Colby


Executive Secretary, CIA Management Committee

FROM Director, National Estimates

SUBJECT Comments on Proposed DCI Statement (Hunt Case)

Since you are aware that I have no facts bearing on the case, I
..take it that you asked fqr comIl1ent from the following point of view:
will the proposed statement be well received by the committee?

The main questions in the committee's mind will be: Did CIA
cooperate Wittingly in activities which were both illegal and outside its
charter? Or did it only respond supinely to higher authority even though
it had some reason for suspecting illegal conduct?

Tactically, I think there would be advantage in coming to grips


fran~dy with these questions in the statement itself. The text in its
present form could be taken as a minimum factual response which doesn't
quite get at the heart of tl}e matter. I think it preferable, in the interest
Of the Agency's reputation on the Hill, to proceed to candor directly rather
than to be drawn to it by subsequent questioning.

Key follow-up questions which can be anticipated would include


,the following:

• contact?
Why is there no record of the initial Ehrlichman-Cushman

If Cushman recorded the conversation with Hunt, was he not already


suspicious of the latter's purpose and why didn't he ask? At a
minimum, could he not have inqUired whether "the individual whose
ideology we aren't entirely sure of" was an American citizen?

00428 ..

t.; V 1"1 r J. U .w A •
. .
e6 U F IDE ~l T fA Is

When Cushman told Ehrlichman on 27 August 1971 that -CIA was


suspending support to Hunt. was it only on the ground that the
latter had become "too demanding"?

Why was the personality study on Ellsberg provided when it


was obvious that this action transgressed the Agency's charter?

Obviou sly most questions which will be raised can only be answered
by Helms and Cushman persona·Hy. Nevertheless, I think the DCI would be
well advised to provide a candid evaluation of these proceedings in his initial
statement. To do SQ voluntarily would make m::>re persuasive the assurances
the Committee will want that nothing of the sort will be done under his
direction of the Agency.

MEMORANDUM FOR ALL CIA EMPLOYEES

'\

1. Recent press reports implicate CIA in certain Z'i'" j


activities allegedly committed in the United States. vVithout going

into the details of these allegations p I can assure you that I intend

to cooperate fully with the various law enforcement and Congressional

investigations of these matters.

2. All CIA employees should understand my attitude toward

matters of this sort. I shall do everything in my power to confine

CIA activities to those whi.ch fall within the strictest interpretation

of its legislative charter. I take this position because I am determined


,
that the law shall be res'pected and because this is the best way to

foster the legitimate and necessary contributions we in CIA can make

to the national security of the United States.

3. I am taking several actions to implement this objective:

I have ordered all the senior operating officials of

this Agency to report to me immediately on any

activities now going on. or that have gone on in the

past. which might be construed by reasonable people

to be outside the legislative charter of this Agency.

CIA to report to me directly on any such activities

of which he has knowledge. I invite all ex-employees

to do the same. Anyone who has such information shall

call my secretary (extension 6363) and say that he wishes

to talk to me about "questionable CIA activities".

I intend to name a highly respected person from outside

the Government to review. investigate. and prepare

reports for me on any apparent violations of the CIA

legislative charter which are brought to his attention

or may be uncovered on his own initiative. I shall give

this person complete and unrestricted access to all

records and J:>ersons in the Agency.

4. To insure that Agency activities are proper in the future. I

DIARY NOTES

Executive Dir~':tor-comPtroller~ 4 january 1972

1. I met with the outgoing and Incoming MAG Cochairmen. We


discussed a number of topics but concentrated particularly on their
two most recent memoranda concerning domestic activities. I ex-
pressed slight irritation with their second memorandum, which is a
shotgun approach to the problem, and asked them to be specific if
they have anything in mind. I said I understand they have heard that
we sent a surveillance team to the Democratic National Convention.
Mr.1 . Isaid that·he made this statement because an Office
of Security employee reported in his presence that he personally was
a member of a team which went to the Convention.' (I subsequently
raised this with Howard Osborn, who after investigating reported back
that the Secret Service asked us for two technicians during the Demo-
cratic National Convention. These technicians were formally detailed
to the Sec.ret Service and went to Chicago. where they did RF monitor-
ing under the supervision of the Secret Service. The Secret Service
apparently calls RF monitoring flaudio surveiliance, " and it seems that,
during the discussion which took place at the Senior Seminar, those who
heard this assumed that "surveillance" meant actual surveillance of the
candidates, when actually the meeting rooms were being checked to
ensure they had not been bugged. I have reported all this to the Director
and shall discuss it with MAG when I have dinner with them on 11 January. )

MEMORANDUM FOR: The Executive Director-Comptroller


SUBJECT : CIA's Domestic Activities
REFERENCE . MAG Memoranda on same subject dated
March 1971 and November 1971

As requested; MAG met with the DDP on 21 December and


discussed with him the referenced memoranda on CIA's covert
domestic activities. Our exchange consisted primarily of
the DDP responding to the MAG memoranda as they related ,to
activities of the Clandestine Service alone. The DDP made
it clear that he spoke only for his Service. Since MAG's
initial concern over covert domestic activities extended to,
while not being restricted to, the Clandestine Service.,
it recommends that the referenced memoranda be also brought
to the attention of appropriate senior officials in other
Agency components.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Director-Comptroller

SUBJECT: Meeting with tvLAG Group

1. I met with the MAG group this morning for little over
an hour, and I set forth as candidly as possible those counter-
intelligence and counterespionage responsibilities of ours overseas
which make it mandatory for us occasionally to take an interest in
American citizens overseas. I explained the requirements placed
.j on us by the Department of Justice for overseas checks, and also
I the fact that our normal overseas operations against Soviets and
I
.I others SOUle times produce leads to Americans in conspiratorial
I
contact with our Communist targets •
.11
.
i
• 2. I was asked about our having sent Agency representatives
.i
to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in 1968 and I
1i
explained that I never hearl.J. of such a thing and did not believe it.
I pointed out that, as they knew, the press had reported fully on the
Agency participation at the beginning of the sky marshalling program
and I assumed they saw nothing wrong with this~ They agreed. I
also pointed out that, at President Kennedy's funeral, with scores
of important foreign per.sonalities here, the Agency lent some assistance
to the Secret Service, and here again the group understood that this
was a legitimate function.

3. The group made it clear that their concern was over the
Agency image if the general public were aware that some of our
activities, wherever they took place, were targeted against Blacks.
I said that we did not target a.gainst Americans of any color in this
country, and that the Clandestine Service was color blind when it
came to canying out its overseas Cl respunsibilities and it would
continue to be s 0.

00437
4 •. I agreed that the Director should be asked to speak a
little more fully and clearly on whether we "target against American
. citizens" so that there is no am..biguity.

5. I told the group that we must expect all kinds of irrespon-


sible accusations in the press. such as the one in the January 1972
issue of RAMPARTS magazine in which Bob Kiley and Drex Godfrey,
it is suggested, are still in the employ of CIA working on a· CIA
plan to improve police organizations in this country. I said that this
was palpably false as anyone who knows Kiley and Godfrey would .
understand. The group mentioned Dick Ober's unit and said that
there was a lot of scuttlebutt that the purpose of this unit was to keep
book on Black Power adheren!"&:' I denied this saying that our interest
was as I had explained it previously.

6. I do not know whether this is a fair as swnption, but


Dick Ober's machine program is not handled in the Clandestine Service
and it is possible that someone· is misreading and misinterpreting the
intent of Ober's program from fragmentary bits and pieces that may
be discernible from the handling of the machine program. I do not
state this as a fact because I have not examined it that closely.

7. I told the group that: I had offered to enlighten it candidly


on what we do so that they '·,uld at least have the facts and I said
that I assume you would take it f:rom here~

lIEMORANDUM FuR: The Director


THROUGH: The Execut~ve Director-COmptroller
SUBJECT: CIA's Domestic Activities
REFERENCE: MAG Memorandum, "CIA's Domestic Activities,"
March 1971

1·. MAG is seriously concerned about possible reper-


cussions which may arise as the result of CIA's covert
. domestic activities. Public revelation that CIA has become
involved in collecting information on U.S. citizens would
likely redound to the Agency"sdiscredit and jeopardize
overall Agency programs.
2. MAG first expressed its concern" about' CIA's covert
domestic activities in a memo for the DCI, transmitted
through.the Executive Director-Comptroller in the Spring
of 1971 (Attachment A). 'MAGfs concern has increased
recently because of such ar1:i.c.1e~ ·as Vic Marchett.i's UPI
interview (Attachment 'B) and the 10 October New York Times
article concerning rupture of FBI-CIA relatiOiiS-· (Attachment
C). Both hint at extremely sensitive Agency involvement in
domest ic act i vities. ·Addit:lonally, 'the DCI. addresses to
the American Society of Newspaper Editors (Attachment D)
and to the CIA Annual Awards ceremony (Attachment E) make
rather categorical denials o:f Agency covert targeting on
U.S. citizens. Agency' employees aware of the various
sensitive operations in question know that there is
qualify"ing language explaining CIA involvement. However,
UAG believes that in the event of an expose,such esoteric
. qualifiers will be lost on the American public and that
there is probably nothing the Agency could say to alleviate
a negative reaction from Congress and the U.S •.public. It
is MAG's fear that ~uch a negative reactioncoul~ seriously
damage our Chngressional relations, effect our.work against
priority foreign targets and have signifi.cant impact on the
viability of CIA. .
"
3. There are indications that the Agency, in responding
to'CE/CI requiremeD:ts, is coJ.lecting information on selected

.•..:: ...

.00439
----.-----_.
. 1

u.s. citizen; both at home and abroad. In operational areas


which are highly sensitive and potentially explosive (e.g.,
domestic radical or racial groups) this Agency must carefully
weigh the needs and pressures for collecting and maintaining
this information against the risk and impact· of revelation
should the operation become compromised or public knowledge.
We therefore urge that all domestic collection and action
programs be severely reviewed so that only those be continued
which are of the highest priority and which absolutely cannot
be undertaken by domestic agencies. CIA should not take on
requirements .of this type by default.
4. Not all of the members of MAG are privy to CIA's
direct or indirect involvement in domestic activities. Those
who are aware probably know only parts of the whole picture.
But our tncreasing concern and our intense interest in
maximizing the Agency's ability to do its proper job, impel
us to bring our serious apprehensions to your attention.

~

In his speech to the American Society of Newspaper EdHors on


14 April 1971, tha Director stated:

In the llirector l s "State of the Agency" speech to employees on


17 September 1971, he said: .

you can rely on those denials. They're true~ and you can use
that as any text that you may need to denlonstrate that we're no~

AInerican citizen3 in the "Vnited St3.te3" and we're not tappL.,.g

about them., pa.rticularly about domestic. espionage. Although
the jo"l-;:es :P..a.ve no ba.sis in fact they nevertheless give us a name
which we donlt deserve. I don l t say tha.t that makes all tr-..at much
difference. but it does m.a.ke some difference,' and this tends to
spill ov~r, so I would like to suggast fr...al: if you r...a.ve it in your
hearts to do so that you speak up when the occasion arises and
try and set the fact::3 straight."

MEMORANDUM FOR: Mr. William E. Colby

SUBJECT: Special Activities

1. Following our recent conversation, I have


searched my memory and Mr. McCone's files for examples
of activities which to hostile observers or to someone
without complete knowledge and with a special kind of
motivation could be interpreted as examples of activities
exceeding CIA's charter.

2. First, as we discussed, on 7 March 1962,


DCI McCone, under pressure from Attorney General Robert
F. Kennedy, agreed to tap the telephones of columnists
Robert S. Allen and Paul Scott in an effort to identify
their sources for classified information which was appear-
ing in their columns. Because ~he primary source appeared
to be in the Department of Defense, McCone ordered me
personally to brief General Joe Carroll, Director of DIA,
orally, which I did. I understand more complete information
on this operation is available from the Director of Security.
I, personally, managed to avoid gaining any knowledge of
what precise actions were taken, what information was gained,
what was done with it, and when the operation was terminated.

4. Although certain activities never got beyond


the planning stage, there are, I believe, three examples
of such planning which could be subject to misinterpretation.
One involved chemical warfare 0 erations againstl I
A second involved
aram1 1 ary s r1 e aga1ns
Outside the United ta es overnmen,
1sen ower was briefed on such planning. A third, which
assumes a new significance today, involved a proposal by
Angleton and Helms for a greatly increased intelligence
collection effort against foreign installations in this
country. This planning also involved a scheme for selected

exposure of KGB activities and counteractions against the


Soviet intelligence service; The reasons are still unclear
to me as to why the FBI chose to brief the PFIAB to the
effect that CIA was planning to wiretap extensively and
indiscriminately in this country, to greatly increase
the Agency representation in the Moscow Embassy, and
generally to use KGB-type tactics, also extensively and
indiscriminately. This led to a heated exchange between
DCI McCone and Mr. Belmont of the FBI, one such meeting
taking place in the presence of the Attorney General.
It is clear that the FBI was opposed to any such proposal
then, as now, and the plan never went forward.

5. During the period when Des FitzGerald was in


charge of the Cuban Task Force, DCI McCone's office
learned, quite by accident, that FitzGeraid had secured
the cooperation of several prominent US business firms
in denying economic items to Cuba. There was no question
but that the businessmen were glad to cooperate, but know-
ledge of this operation had to be rather widespread.

6.

the 303 Committee, it was decided that the offers of
American business could not be accepted, it being neither
a secure way nor an honorable way of doing such business.
This declaration of policy at this time bears on the recent
·ITT hearings, but I am not surprised that McCone has
forgotten thathe helped to set the precedent of refusing
to accept such collaboration between the Agency's operations
and private business.

7. At the direction of Attorney General Robert


Kennedy and with the explicit approval of President Kennedy,
j McCone injected the Agency, and particularly Cord Meyer,

00459
4

into the US labor situation, and particularly to try


to ameliorate the quarrel between George Meany and
Walter Reuther. Cord Meyer steered a very skillful
course in this connection, but the Agency could be
vulnerable to charges that we went behind Meany's back,
or were somehow consorting with Reuther against Meany's
wishes.

8. There are three examples of using Agency


funds which I know to be controversial. One was the
expenditure of money under Project MOSES in securing
the release of Cuban Brigade prisoners. Details of
this operation are best known to Larry Houston, Mike
Miskorsky, George MacManus, and James S~ith. Second,
as you well know, when Lou Conein received his summons
to report to the Joint General Staff Headquarters on
1 November 1963 a large amount of cash went with him.
My impression is that the accounting for this and its
use has never been very frank or complete. Third, at
one of the early Special Group meetings attended by
McCone he took strong exception to proposals to spend
Agency funds to improve the economic viability of West
Berlin, and for an investment program in Mali. His
general position was that such expenditures were not
within the Agency's chkrter, and that he would allow
such spending only on the direct personal request of
the Secretary of State or the Secretary of Defense, or
the White House.
9. I raise these issues of funding because I
remember the Agency's being severely criticized by the
-House Appropriations Subcommittee for having spent $3,000
for stamps in connection with a program to buy tractors
to secure the release of prisoners from Cuba.

10. Under the heading of old business, I know that


anyone who has worked in the Director's office has worried
about the fact that conversations within the offices and
over the telephones were transcribed. During McCone's

1':;&'(" f.-an ~·J-·';R~. ~-_.~~ ~r:-.~tl-:-~r~ ~ff::

tenure, there were microphones in his regular office,


his inner office, his dihing room, his office in East
Building, and his study at his residence on White Haven
Street. I do not know who would be willing to raise such
an issue, but knowledge of such operations tends to
spread, and certainly the Agency is vulnerable on this
score.

11. Also under the heading of old business,

I Shortly after the Cuban missile crisis, there was


L - , _............----.,.-.J
a d1sposition in Washington to reexamine the Bay of Pigs,
and the fact that several Alabama National Air Guard
officers lost their lives in the Bay of Pigs was surfaced
with surprisingly little excitement at the time.

12. During my stint on the 7th floor there was


a special arrangement with the Office of Communications
whereby the Director's office gained access to non-CIA
traffic. This surfaced briefly at one point shortly after
Admiral Rayborn became DCI. He had visited the Signal
Center and removed a copy of a telegram from the Embassy
in the Dominican Republic for Under Secretary George Ball,
Eyes Only. He returned to his office and proceeded to
disCuss this telegram with George Ball who was naturally
quite curious as to how Rayborn knew about it, and also as
to how Rayborn had it in his possession before Ball did.
Ben Read in the Secretary of State's office and I spent
several weeks putting this one to. rest.

13. Finally, DCI McCone, as you and I well know,


operated on a very lofty plane, and I think certain of
his activities could be misunderstood. One example was
his decision in July of 1964 to have Aristotle Onassis and
Maria Callas flown from Rome to Athens on Air Force KC 135.
Their arrival in Athens in this airplane attracted the
attention of the local press and in due course Mr. John

Hightower, Chief of the Associated Press Bureau for


Washington, came to see me to ask about the propriety
of this action.

14. I

15. McCone dealt quite extensively with newsmen


in Washington. In fact, they gave him a gift and a
luncheon when he left Washington, which is perhaps
indicative of the press's relations with him. However,
in the case of the Ross and Wise book, The Invisible
Government, he did try to bring pressure on the publisher
and the authors to change things. They did not change
a comma, and I doubt that this old saw will ever sing
again.

16.

17. The above listing is uneven, but I have a


sinking feeling that discipline has broken down, and that
allegations from any quarter which cast these things in
the wrong light would receive great publicity and attention,
and no amount of denial would ever set the record straight.
If I may be of any assistance in tracking down further
details, I am of course at your disposal, but I would point

out that I was very much in the position of the


enlisted man who knew that the commissioned officers
were aware of these activities and better able to
judge their propriety and possible impact or misinter-
pretation.

SUBJECT Use and Control of Disgllise £nd Ali?.s Documents

1. ~~e attached report resulted from our general inquiries


into '-latergate-related issues and contains recommendations in
paragraph 9 for your approval.

Background:

2. In the course of collecting information on various activi-


ties of the Agency with flap potential, we received a number of
reports on issuance and use of disguise and alias documentation.
The Exe~uti ve Secretary, CIA Mal"1ageffient Committee noted on the face
of the summary submitted by the Office of Technical Services (OTS)
on materials issued by it that it would be interesting to check the
reports of other components to see if they matched with OTS issu-
ances. In fact, OTS is not the only component to issue alias
documentation, and the review was broadened to include the other
issuing compo~ents and their procedures for controlling the
materials. The attached report summarizes the findings. -

they issue. OTS is developing a ne1-' computerized system which is
scheduled to become operational in November 1973. Every six mCJnths

component is to control the documents issued to it. The instruc-
tions do require, however, that the documents will be :handled as
controlled documents from tt~ time of iSSue until their ulti~ate
disposition. The general practice is to maintain a record of ~_l
docunents received within the component, but to issue the documents
to the appropriate officers who assume responsibility for handling
them properly. There is no evidence of periodic spot checking. At
I-east one area division of the Directorate of Operations follo·ws a
procedure which requires that the documents be retained in the front
office Q~til needed for an operation, being returned after the
operation is completed. On the surface this may appep~ to be a
strict control, but in actuality the documents are retained in
'individual packages for each senior officer, and are never insre~ted
before they are issued nor after they are returned; in effect, no
record accoQYJtability by the officer is required.

Ultimate Document Retrieval

5. Every employee using alias documents is now required to


process through CCS as part of his exit-out process for either
resignation or retirement. It is at this time that he is given
a list of all alias documentation issued to him and is re~uested
to return all such documents. If there are any of these documents

- 2 -
0041'5
..hich he is u~able to r-roduce, th~ employEe must su1Lit a slgncd
"'ri tten statement describing, to the best of his abi] :ity, the con-
eli tions under which the doclilllent or docu.ments '·'eTe ei UJer lost or
destroyed. 'l'he controls that now exist were not in op~:ration wllen
Hm.'ard Hw)t was an employee, whic1i may explain hoI-.' he \-ias a-n]e to
retain documents issued in the 19605. Nor do th<:se cOl"Jtrols apply
effecti vely to non-elr,ployees over ;'Thom the A:;ency has no con~.rol.
Host disguise material -- other than aocument.s -- is ).·c'garckd o.S

T,ed-shable and l"lon-sensitive and OTS is not too concerned if


dis['J.ise ms.t,erial is not returned.

6. A new coulputerized system is being readied called CENBJill


(Central Badge and Creaentia1 System). Initially this system will
incluQ'? all of the iSSU8.!1CeS of the badge office, CCS, Central
Processing and the motor pool. . T'ne system will proviae a monthly
listing to these four components of all creden'tials issued and
con} d bE" used to request outstc:nding credentials at the time o:t
checkout. As a follmi-up the system ....,.i11 provide a wee}~ly creclen-
tial status of all employees who have separate·a. but for ",hem CElmllD
still sLows outstanding credentials.

Cone] us ions

7. Since the issuance of DOl 240-4 there hHs been aver:!


definite iT'lprovement in the controls exercised over alia.s docu!i}<?D-
tation. By requiring that every request be routed through CCS/OGB
i'OT conculTence, a very cOIll,1'-ete file of all alias docuL:jentS issued
has been conlpiled. Ttle probability is s+ight that an Agency employee
could resign or retire without having been queried about all the
aHa.s documents which had been issued to him. This procedure, ;'Thile
currently observed in the Agency, has no standing as a general re-
q1.1irement flcd exists only as an administrative instruction in one
of the Agency I s directorates.

8. T'ne OTS computerized system, when operational, should tena


to reduce the nUi'nber of outstanding documents since 'a justific8.tio.n
eveD' six months will be required for their retention. The CENBAD
system will not only maJ;:e the CCS/OCB controJ. even tiOre effective
by mechanizing the up-to-aate listing but in the rare instances
when an officer might depart without turning in his dOCilluents,
. CEl'I13AD -will provide ~his _.data weekly to allow for a follm-i-up.

veillance during the Democratic and Republican Conventions
at Miami Beach, Florida. Mr~ ~sked that we make the
equipment available for the perIod desired by the Secret

Proj ectl -----JliS a Headquarters ini tiated program


which has as its fundamental objective the long term manipu-
lations of selected agent assets operating against EA Division
difficult targets in the leftist and communist milieu in various
parts of the world. Although targetted overseas these agents are
often exposed to and directed against American radical, leftist,
and communist targets to gain a practical'knowledge of the leftwing,
radical, communist world. There is a possibility that an asset
might become suspect and be ~ccused of being an employee of the
Agency or the Bureau; or it might happen some asset would, for
some reason, become disenchanted with his role and expose his
Agency relationship and hjs activities, with resultant embar-
rassment. To minimize potential problems, therefore, each
case is cleared with the FBI and through CI/SO the Bureau is
kept informed on a regular basis.

S,UBJECT : Research Project on Robert L. Vesco

1. In mid-October 197;;' L~--.---l---------~""----...!dU~,


Office of Economic Rese~rch as e
par 1c1pate 1n a me~t1ng with a number of OER officers.
During the meeting I ,r J explained that the
Director of Central ~nteII1gence had levied a crash
project on Dr. Edward Proctor, the Deputy Director for
Intelligence, to produce a paper on international financier
Robert L. Vesco. Since the Director had specifically
requested contributions from the field. ~ ~sked
our Division to help in procuring them.
2. We thereupon cabled various questions suggested by
OER to~~ ~nd aSked for replies by
19 OctoDer. ReIQv,nt answers were turned over to OER in
memorandum form. j-In the case of a brief reference in one of
the field messages-to an earlier high-level American
intercession on behalf of Mr. Vesco, we asked Mr. Helms
through his secretary whether this was relevant. information.
The response, again._received through the secretary~ was that
it was not relevant. i
3. Soon after our memorc,nda "had been submitted, ,
ladviseel ~hat the Director wanted
-=e=v=e~r=y~o~n~e~t~o~forget the Vesco project. This was communicated
to·all DDP Headquarters personnel who had had a hand in the
project or had been made aware of it.

SUBJECT: Items for Possible Use in Briefing

1. This Memorandum is submitted in order to


identify to you for possible briefing of the
Director activities which in certain contexts could
be construed as delicate or inappropriate.
2. At the request of the Director of Security,
from apprO~imr!::: :i:-October 1972 t~ mid-JanUary.

elements. .

4. 1

s. Since late 1972 CIA has taken part in seven


FBI training courses at Quantico, Virginia in
response to requests from the FBI. We have shared
with them through lectures and discussions lessons
we have learned which are relevant to their counter-
espionage responsibilities.

6. As a means of sharing more fully our operational


experience we have invited three FBI officers to be
students in ourl Icourse from 14 to 25
May 1973.
7. The Soviet defector Yuriy NOSENKO was
confined at a CIA facility from April 1964 to
September 1967 while efforts were being made to
establish whether he was a bbna fide defector.
Although his· present attitude toward the Agency is
quite satisfactory, the possibility exists that the
press could cause undesirable publicity if it were
to uncover the story.

abroad. This information is normally disseminated to
U.S. law enforcement agencies and other recipients of
our reports. We also occasionally request U.S. law
enforcement agencies for name traces on U.S. citizens
who are known or suspected to be involved in narcotics
trafficking abroad .

We have occasionally received requests

officials working abroad on foreign narcotics investi-


gations. The present method of handling such requests.
is for us to request the approval of the Deputy Director
for Operations prior to asking the Technical Services
Division to comply. We insist on knowing the true
identity of the persons to use such documentation and
limit them to staff officers of the U.S. law enforcement
agencies. We also require that we know the purpose
and intended use of the documents. Finally, we require
receipts from the headquarters of the agency involved
and the individual, and also require these documents to
be returned to us for destruction after they have ful-
filled their use. We have turned down requests from
BNDD for alias documentation for domestic use. There
are some indications in the files thai there have been
requests from BNDD for domestic documentation in con-
nection with their domestic investigations. These
predate NARCOG, and weare unable to determine how these
requests were handled.
6. We periodically receive requests for technical
assistance in the form of photographic and audio devices
or guidance for use of such items by U.S. law enforcement
agencies in connection with their foreign investigations
of illicit narcotics activities. We require these
agencies to adhere ta the same procedures we require
in our own operations. From time-to-time we have honored
these requests and have provided sterile equipment when
the requests have been properly presented and approved.
Our records show evidence that several such requests
were made prior to the existence of NARCOG in connection
with narcotics law enforcement investigations in the .
United States. We are unable to determine whether the
requests were fUlfilled.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Operations


FROM Chief, Division D
SUBJECT Potentially Embarrassing Activities
Conducted by Division D
REFERENCE Your staff meeting, 7 May 1973

1. There is one instance of an activity by Division D,


with which you are already familiar, which the Agency General
Counsel has ruled to be barred to this Agency by statute: the
collectionr Lof international commercial
radio telepnone conversatiOns oet een several Latin American
cities and New York, aimed at the interception of drug-related
communications. The background on this is briefly as follows:

T 'ere ore on
L,.,-,----.----;e=p,-;o:;-:;e=m~e=r=--.--n,.,.,.....---.:Tl"'"';r--::::-a-=s.,-;-::e--:::r-~l::r!""Dnl:::V:-:-Yi-=s-::i-=o:::n:-TD'\-:w~o:-:u::-:11
the ':3d----::t ak e 0 v e r
coverage, and on 12 October 1972 we agreed to do so. On
14 October a team of intercept operators from thel I
I lbegan the coverage experlmentallY'
011 ""dnudly I::t/J,I~"K wldte to say that the test results were
]OJ

good, and that it was hoped this coverage could continue.


Because a question had arisen within Division D as to
the legality of this activity, a query was add!essed to the
General Counsel on this score (Attachment A hereto). With the
receipt of his reply (Attachment B), the intercept activity
was immediately terminated. There has been a subsequent series
of exchanges between Division D and the General Counsel as to
the legality of radio intercepts made outside the U.S., but
with one terminal being in the U.S., and the General Counsel

00534-
'-------1
has ruled that such intercept is also in violation of CIA's
statutory responsibilities.
2. We are carrying out at present one intercept activity
which falls within this technical limitation--i.e., of having
one terminal in the U.S.

eL.-~~_ _---=-,
a arge number of totally unrelated conversations, the oper-
ators do intercept other traffic, frequently involving U.S.
citizens--for example, BNDD staffers talking to their agents.
I have described this situation to the General Counsel, and
his informal judgment was that, as long as the primary pur-
pose of the coverage is a foreign target, this is acceptable.
He suggests, however, that it might be desirable to inform
the Attorney General of the occasional incidental intercept
of the conversations of U.S. citizens, and thus legalize this
activity. We will pursue this with Mr. Houston.

4. An incident which was entirely innocent but is cer-


tainly subject to misinterpretation has to do with an equip-
ment test run by CIAI ~echnicians in Miami in August
1971. At that time we were working jointly to develop short-
range agent DF equipment for use against a Soviet agent in
South Vietnam. I land
a field test was agreed upon. Ihe Mlaml area was chosen, and
a team consisting of Division D, Commo, I Ipersonnel went
to Miami during the second week of August. Contact was made
wi th a Detective Sergeant I lof the Miami Beach Police
Department, and tests were mane trom four different hotels, one
a block away from the Miami Beach Auditorium ~nd Convention
Hall. A desk clerk in this hotel volunteered the comment that
the team was part of the official security checking process of
all hotels prior to the convention. (The Secret Servic~ had
already been checking for possible sniper sites.) As the team's
report notes, "The cover for the use of the hotel is a natural."

00535
5. Another subject worthy of mention is the following:

I ~or copies
of the telep one ca SIpS per-
~t=a~l=n~l=n~g~t~o~u~.~~~.-~C~h~lna calls.
These were then obtained regu-
larly by Domestic Contact Service in New York, pouched to
DCS Washington, and turned over to Division D for passage
to FE/China Operations. The DDP was apprised of this activity
by Division D in March 1972, and on 28 April 1972 Division D
told DCS to forward the call slips to CI Staff, Mr. Richard
Obert Soon thereafter, the source of these slips dried up,
and they have ceased to come to Mr. Obert In an advisory
opinion, the Office of General Counsel stated its belief that
the collection of these slips did not violate the Communica-
tions Act, inasmuch as they are a part of a normal record-
keeping function of the telephone company, which does not
in any way involve eavesdropping.

In referent you request our views as to the legal
aspects of a radio telephone intercept activity carried on at

thereof to any person. Chapte:;:- 119 of Title 18, u. S. C., makes
the interception of any wire or oral communication a crime
punishable by $10, 000 or five years' imprisonment, or botn.
There are two exceptions to these p:rohibitions:

Since this Agenqr is prohibited by statute 'from any

.Dear Bill,

Prior to my assignment to Nha Trang I was assigned to the CI Staff for


approximately 20 months. While I was with the Staff I was led to "believe
that one of their "Group:s" on the ground f l o o r , D was involved in

domestic operations. I believe their target (s) were minority group (s).
The :hief ar d reputy Chief of the Group at that time were
Dick Ober and
respectively. One of their Case Officers, 1 __

spent over 50% of his time TDY within the United States.
It was my under-
standing they reported onll to the White House and to Dick Helms. Other
members of the Staff, including myself, had limited access to the~

area, only when necessar,y and escorted at all times. Perhaps you were or
are now aware of what the operations are. However, I believe I would be
remiss in not responding to the book cable (407190). And perhaps their
operations might have been outside the legislative charter.

Al". dUring my tour with th, CI St,J" I" "dd,ntIl ('''ned th,y

believe this was w~thout the knowledge or approval of Chief,~ (If I

because of the following: When they learned that

SUBJECT: Foreign Support For Activities Planned to Disrupt


or Harass the Republican National Convention

1. There are only limited indications thus far of


foreign efforts to inspire, support Or take advantage of
activities designed to disrupt or harass the National
Convention of the Republican Party in San Diego, 21-23
August 1972.
2. Some American participants at the Soviet-controlled
World Assembly for Peace and Independence of the Peoples of
Indochina, held 11-13 February 1972 .in Paris/Versailles,
attempted unsuccessfUlly to include a call for international
demonstrations to take place at the time ,of the Republican
National Convention. A representative of the San Diego
~ Convention Coalition (SDCC), one of the domestic action
groups targetting on the Republican Convention, requested
the American Delegations' Steering Committee at the World
Assembly to include a specific call for international
support of activities against the Republican convention
in their proposal to the Action Commission of the World
Assembly. This request, however, was dropped as too
divisive by the Steering Committee, despite initial indica-
tions that the proposal would be taken to the floor of
the Assembly.
3. John LENNON, a British subject, has provided
financial support to Project "YES", which in turn paid
-,.the travel expenses to the World Assembly of ;a representa-
tive of leading antiwar activist Rennie DAVIS,. (DAVIS' repre-
sentative is tentatively planning to assist in preparations
for disruptive actions at the San Diego Convention.) ,

F6reign Support for Activities Planned to Disrupt
~r Harass the Republican National Convention

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION:


..
Indications remain limited, thus far, of foreign efforts
--- t.o· insp1 re, support or take advantage of ac t i vi ties des igned
to disrupt or harass the National Convention of the Republican
.P..al'ty in San Diego, 21-23 August 1972. The concept of coordinated
international support for domestic activities in the United
States was generally endorsed at the ~ecent World Assembly for
Peace and Independence of the Peoples of Indochina; however, the
Conference issued no specific call for internatfonal support of
dis!uptive actions at the American national pol~tical conventions.
BACKGROUND:
At the Soviet-controlled World ··Assembly for Peace and
Independence of the Peoples of Indoc1ti.:na., held in Versailles
from 10-13 February 1972, there was mention of American plans
for demonstrations at both the Republican and Democratic
National Conventions. The final draft resolution from the
Conference's "Act ion Commiss ion" contains an append ix submitted i
by American delegates whose goal was to secure global coordination
for domestic actions in the United States. It calls for inter-
... national support to six weeks of domestic antiwar actions and
d~monstrations, from 1 April to 15 May 1972, and concludes wit~
, the statement: "This campaign will lead up to the Democratic
1- Party_Convention at Miami on July 9, 1972, and the Republican
Party Convention in Sal} Diego on August 21, 1972."
\
The final "Resolution of the' Paris World Assembly for the
Pe-ate-and 'Independence of the Indochinese People" of 13 February
1972 J drafted ~y the "Political Commis'sion" states:
-
.. "In the United States particularly, the protest against
the war is voiced more and more strongly, under various
forms, such as draft evasions, desertions, resistance, demon-
'ji -" ---.-sttations which now affect even the soldiers. The Assembly
.~alls for support to these progressive and antiwar forces in
_ the United States, and asks the governments to grant asylum
~o deserters and to support their right to repatriation. .
All together, the peoples of the world will efficiently help
to in~6se on the U.S. Government the restoration of peace,
a'nd independence and freedom in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia."

DEVELOPfo.fENTS:
The San Diego Convention Coalition CSDCC), one of the
'domestic action groups targetting on the Republican Con-
'vention~ is planning, in addition to demonstrations, for a
"large exposition in the campsights (sic) called Expose 72,
which with movies, exhibits, displays will portray the struggles
of people allover the world." Plans for activities at
Rx.pose 72 are believed to include Ca) the use of a special
television network to broadcast video-taped messages from
other countries, including coverage of sympathetic demon-
strations elsewhere; and (b) broadcasts over public address
systems of live telephone calls from the Vietn?mese in Paris
and from the Communist Chinese and others at the United Nations.
In addition, the SDCC has suggested that, in order to "outflank
NIXON domestically and internationally," international opposition
can be expressed "by obtaining the authority of other countries
and liberation movements to carry their flags in SDCC demon-
strations." ' - '..

Nev indications of foreign plans or efforts to inspire,
support, influence, or exploit activities designed to dis-
rupt or hara.ss the Republican National Convention in Miami,
Florida, 21-24 August 1972, consist of the following: A
leader of the People's Coalition for Peace and Justice
(pCPJ) has stated that demonstrations will be organized to
take place at United States and allied military installa-
tions abroad during the period. immediately Before and during
the Republican Convention. The PCPJ leader also stated that
representatives of the Stockholm Conference~on Vietnam will'
'~~articipate in activities in connection with the Convention.
'S>The Anti-War Union (A1VU) , a domestic organization which has
been active in planning demonstrations in connection with the
Republican National Convention ,.-·has •.sent a delegation to
Paris, France, to meet with officials of the Democratic Repub-,
lie of Vietnam (DRV) and the Provisional Revolutionary Govern-
ment of South Vietnam (PRG). No information is presently
available, however, indicating that actions at the Republican!
Convention have been discussed at these'meetings. '
,...
DEVELOPMENTS:
In an early July 1972 meeting with prominent members of
.,foreign antiwar organizations, a representative of the People's
Coalition for Peace and Justice (PCPJ), who occupies an impor-'\
tant position within that organization, discussed the plans ,
of the PCPJ in connection with the upcoming election campaign
in the United States. The PCPJ representative stated that
during the" per~od 14 -23 August, a '''Peoples Campaign Against
Bombing" would be waged in U.S. cities involved in the manu-
facture and shipping of materials for use in Vietnam, and
that similar actions will be organized at United States and
allied military installations abroad. The PCPJ representa~
tive further stated that "dramatic demonstrations" in protest

of the bombing in Vietnam are being organized by the "Repub-
'~ lican Party National Convention Coalition" to occur on
21 August 1972. In an apparent reference to the 21 August
actions, the PCPJ leader added that representatives of the
Stockholm Conference on Vietnam will speak on the subject of
the alleged American bombing of dikes in North Vietnam.
(Comment: We have no present information concerning plans of
Stockholm Conference representatives to travel to the United
States during the Republic~n National Convention; nor do we
have any additional information concerning plans of Stockholm
Conference representatives to participate in activities con-
nected with the Republican Convention.]
The Anti-War Union (AWU), a domestic group engaged in
organizing counter-activities at the Republican National Con~
vention, has sponsored the travel of a delegation of activists
to Paris, France, to mee~ with officials of the Democratic
Republic of North Vietnam (DRV) and'the Provisional Revolu-
,,::tionary Government of South Vietnam (PRG). An advance party
~·has already met with DRV and PRG representatives to discuss (
the agenda for meetings with' the ,full AWU delegation. Al though
no information is presently ava+l1ib:le indicating that actions '
at the Republican Convention have been discussed or are sched-
uled to be discussed at meetings be~ween the AWU delegation
and the DRV/PRG officials, it is known that members of the A\\~
advance party have asked for advice from the PRG officials !
regarding the stance the Awu should take on certain questions'
relating to the presidential elections. It is also known
,that the DRV officials have questioned the A1W advance party
about the political mood in the United States. One of the
AWU delegation members has stated that upon their return to
, the United States about 26 ~uly 1972, sone of the members
will speak at rallies, over the radio, and on television, \
.to "educate the 'American people about the consequences of \
'voting for Nixon, and the need to end the war and defeat'
'Nixon." The delegation member added that the demonstrations
at· the Republican Convention ,will ··be "uniqtIe."

SUMMARY:

There are no new indications of sfJecific foreign plans or efforts to


inspire, support, influence, or exploit activities designed to disrupt or
harass the Republican National Convention in Miami, Florida, 21-24 August
1912. Although meetings have been held recently in Paris, France. between
American antiwar activists and representatives of the Democratic Republic
of North Vietnam (DRV) and the Provisional Revolutior\ary Government of
South Vietnam (PRG), currently available information indicates that the
DRV/PRG officials made no, efforts to encourage or give guidance to the
American participants with respect to the upcoming Republican National
Convention. Private discussions. separ~te from the meetings with the entire
American delegation, were conductedb~~,,0the DRV and the PRG officials;
',at present, we have no information regarding the substance of these private
excha11ges. A second group of activists, considered' more important than
the first (~degation, is scheduled to travel to Paris on or about 1 August. 1972 ._
for further consultations with the PRG and DRV representatives. I

In recent meetings in Paris, France, with members of an American
delegation sponsored by the Anti-War Union (AWU), representatives of
the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (DRV) and the ProvisioJ;lal Revolutionary
Government of South Vietnam (PRG) were very guarded with respect to dis- \
cussing activities at the Republican National Convention. Although the Vietnam-'
ese repeatedly questioned the Americans concerning the mood of the antiwar
movement in the United States, they made"no direct reference to the Repub-
lican Convention, except for one instance when PRG Deputy Chief Nguyen
Van TIEN accused President Nixon of using the private and public sessions
of the Paris peace talks as "propaganda for the Republican Convention. II
TIEN then urged the Americans to promote and propagandize the Seven
"point Plan offered by the PRG. The Americans. too, for the most part.
;refrained from discussing the Convention, other than to es'timate that demon-

Following their meeting on 22 July 1972 with the AWU delegation,


the PRG officials held additional talks with sub-groups of the delegation.

the DRV officials to return for further discussions. At present, there
is no information available concerning the substance of these private

" A second, more important delegation of Americans connected with
the Anti-War Union is scheduled to travel to Parts circa 1 August 1972
for further consultation with DRV and PRG representatives. This second
group is scheduled to be led by Rennie DAVIS, founder and leader of the
, AWU. This will be DAVIS' second trip to Paris within recent months for.

Foreign Support for Activities Planned to Disrupt
or Harass the Democratic National Convention

Sm-n...fARY:
The o~ly new indication of foreign plans or efforts
. to inspire, support, influence, or exploit actions designed
to disrupt or harass the Democratic National Convention in
.. Miami, Florida, 10-13 July 1972, is an expression of interest
. . bya member of the North Vietnamese Delegation to the Paris
Peace Talks in the plans of the major antiwar organizations
:in the United States for demonstrations in connection with
the political conventions of both major ~arties.

DEVELOPMENTS:
In mid-May 1972, a member "of the North Vietnamese Dele-
gation to· the Paris Peace Ta11t's""-invi ted a visitor to contact
him again when the visitor returned fro~ an imminent trip
to the United States. The North Vietnamese official gave
the visitor the New York City addresses of the People's
Coalition for Peace and Justice (PCPJ) and the National
Peace Action Coalition (NPAC), and asked the visitor to
inquire at their offices regarding their plans for demo~­
strations during the coming summer. The North Vietnamese
~official stated that'he was especially interested in plans
for actions in connection with the Democratic and National
Conventions.

SUBJECT: Request for Information on Sensitive Activities

You will recall that in Fiscal Yea~ 1971 and 1972,


I believe, Agency funds were made available to the FBI.
These funds may still be possibly held in a special
account for that use. This is one of the areas where
TSD has been very much involved. Chuc~ Briggs would

have the details as this was handled through the Executive


Director's office and of course Angleton would have
additional information.

MEMORANDUM FOR Deputy Director for Operations

SUBJECT Areas of Possible EITlbarrassITlent


to the Agency

1. SOITletiITle in the spring or early SUITlmer of 1971, Mr. John


Dean levied the requirement on the Agency for information relating to
the Investors Overseas Service (lOS). The original request was
non- specific but it gradually emerged that Dean was concerned with
the possible adverse publicity that might develop regarding the
President's nephew, who was eITlployed by lOS •.

2. There were multiple channels from the White House to the


Agency on this subject:

a. PresuITlably Haldeman and/or Ehrlichman to Director


Helms.

b. Someone (unnamed) in the White House to the DDC1,


General CushITlan (see attached telephone conversation).
Note that Ehrlichman is mentioned, and

c. John Dean to the CI Staff. These various channels


were sorted out in time and six reports were passed by
the CI Staff to Mr. Fred Fielding for Mr. John Dean.

3. The telephone call of General Cushman's is of interest since


it gives the flavor of White House concern. It took several days to
uncover the fact that the White House interest centered on the involve-
ment of the President's nephew with lOS and possible adverse publicity.
The reports submitted to Dean! s office were routine- in nature and were
coordinated with the DCI. After a few months, interest in this sub-
ject died down and we did not pur sue it further.

4. Please return the attachments when they have served your


purpose.

~ r-
I:-
,.- r- I
, 00583 .
5. I also include a short note on the Intelligence Evaluation
Committee and Staff prepared by Richard Ober. The original
meetings were held in the office of John Dean at the White House
and the principal sparkplug for this group acti vity····wa·s-t-be then
Assistant Attorney General for Internal Security, RobertlvIa-F-dian
and then ]a ter his as sistant, William Olsen. It is noted that M;:--____.....
Mardian is now appearing before the Grand Jury 'and--it is always .........................,.
possible that he might draw in the Agency.

6. Before appointing Ober to the IES Staff as the Agency


representative, I had attended various inter-agency meetings pre-
sided over by Mardian. I expressed the view to Director Helms
that Mardian would require very careful handling due to his inex-
perience. Furthermore, Mardian was deeply.involved in the split
between Bill Sulli van and Mr. Hoover. On a confidential basis
one or two senior FBI officials stated that Sullivan was secretly
passing files to Mardian without Mr. Hoover's permission. This
was one of the important reasons why Sullivan was dismissed from
the. Bureau.

Telephone conversation of General CushInan and someone in White House, 23/7/71

. " ..
Bob, how are you.

DDCl: Just fine; I just talked to Jack Sherwood and he suggested I give you
a buzz.

I deeply appreciate it. I asked Jack to call you. I spoke to Rose yesterday,
.and told her III had a little project here for John EhrlichInan and I need very
discreet as sistance from the Company, and I should· like to touch base with
Bob. I met him at Jack Sherwood's. II
_. .. -- .. _....
".-~~--

DDCI: That's right.

That's right and beyond'that I would like to just establish a relationship because
from time to time we have a few needs in your area. Let me tell you what we
need to know here. Yo~r Agency would be the only one to help. I have checked
with the Bureau, Bob, and they have nothing on this fellow. Just a mere name
check but it apparently has some significance, of course. Ray Finkelstein;
born in Belgium about 1940; moved to Brazil about age 12 with his family.
This might'be helpful. He now is working with one Gilbert Straub, apparently
Straub is hooked up with that Kornfeld outfit: lOS. We have a need to know what
Finkelstein is all about.

DDCI: We will do our best, of course; we have some counterintelligence files


which sometimes turn up people but ordinarily, of course, we don't surveil
any Americans but this fellow ~i~ht have come to our notice.

He may not be an American, just a European Jew; ..that is the problem, the
Bureau has COIne up with zero.

DDCI: Do you know where he is physically located?

He may be in Geneva; Straub is apparently in Geneva •

SUBJECT: The l£ril=HAOSProgram

1. The~HAOS program is a worldwide program for


clandestine collection abroad of information on foreign
efforts to support/encourage/exploit/manipulate domestic
U.S. extremism, especially by Cuba, Communist China,
North Vietnam, the Soviet Union, ~orth Korea and the
Arab fedayeen.
2. The r1viijCHAOS program has not and is not conduct-
ing efforts ~mestically for internal domestic collection
purposes. Agency efforts are foreign. Foreign-oriented
activity in the United States has been of two types:
a. Selected FBI domestic sources who travel
abroad in connection with their extremist activity
and/or affiliations to make contact with hostile
foreign powers or with foreign extremist groups
have been briefed and debriefed by Headquarters
officers. The briefing has included appropriate
ope r a 1: ion a I g 11 i ..1-1 nc e, inc 1 udin g de fen s i v e advic e .
b. Americans with existing extremist creden-
tials have been assessed, recruited, tested and
dispatched abroad for PCS assignments as contract
agents, primarily sourc~s offered for such use by
the FBI. When abroad they collect information re-
sponsive tollilliJeHAOS program requirements, as well
as other Agency requirements. They are thus used
primarily for targeting against Cubans, Chinese Com-
munists, the North Vietnamese, etc., as their back-·
ground and their particular access permits. It
should be note~ that thet: :'lasp:c~ ~ft~e
~ IproJec;t of thl:: 5C J\ :ta DIVIS10ij) IS
Sl~lIaT to thelll1J:HAOS PROGRAM. .
"3. As indicated earlier, [f'nj)::HAOS is a foreign pro-
gram, conducted overseas, except for the limited activity
described above. The program is and has been managed so
. as to achieve the maximum feasible utilization of exist-
ing resources of the O£erations Directorate. No a~sets

have been recti'i ted and run exclusi"-vely for the lilll~HAOS
program. Instead, emphasis has been placed on the exploi-
tation of new and old Agency assets who have a by-product
capability or a concurrent capability for provision of
information responsive to the program's requirements.
This has involved the provision of custom-tailored collec-
tion requirements and operational guidance. This collec-
tion program is vieloJed as an in~gral part of the recruit-
ment and collection programs of lC.J.tina Opel atiollS, Vietftam
j Op.e.xatioDs, Cuhan Operations, SoviE?t Bloc Ditii-s-i-on-o-p-era-
I ti,Qns and Korean Branch opel at iOBs;J Agents who have an
American "Movement" background or ,.,;ho have known connec-
tions with the American "Movement" dre useful as access
agents to obtain biographic and personality data, to dis-
cern possible vulnerabilities and susceptibilities, and
to develop operationally exploitable relatjonships with
recruitment targets of the above programs. These assets
are of interest to our targets because of their connec-
tions with and/or knm~l~~e of the American "Movement."
Over the course of the &1"ljJ:HAOS pr:'0gram, there have been
·approximately 20 important areas ,of operational interest,

c; hiCh at the present time have "be'Em reduced to about ten:


Paris, Stockholm, Brussels, DaT-~s'Salaam, Conakry, Algier.s.,
Mexico City, Santiago, Ottawa and Hong Kong. ------------
l
4. The~HAOS program also utilizes audio opera-
tions, two of which have been implemented to cover tar-
gets of special interest.

5. frnjcHAOS reporting from abroad relating to the
program originates in two ways: Individuals who are noted
in contact with Cubans, the Chinese Communists, etc., and
who appear to have extremist connections, interests or
background are reported upon. Other individuals are re-
ported upon in response to specific Headquarters require-
ments received from the FBI because such individuals are
of active investigatory security interest to the FBI.
. 6. All cable and dispatch traffic related to the
fr~CHAOS program is sent via restricted channels. lit
is
,not processed by either the~able Secretariat or the In-
formation Services Division~ The control and retriev-
ability of information obtained, includin¥ information
received from the FBI, is the responsibilIty of the Spe-
cial Operations Group.
7. Information responsive to specific FBI require-
ments is disseminated to the FBI via special controlled
dissemination channels, i.e., by restricted handling cable
traffic or via special pouch and specially numbered blind
memoranda. .
8. Information of particular significance, when col- .
lected, has been disseminated by special memorandum over
the signature of the Director of Central Intelligence to
the White House (Dr. Kissinger and John Dean), as well as'
to the Attorney Gener~l, the Secretary of State and the
Director of the FBI.

Strategic Leverage trom" Aid 'and .Trade"

-JAMES R. SCllLESINGER

Summary

The analysis of this' paper rests' on the- assumption that


American policy-inakers should not be so concerned with the
pursuit of hard-to-obtain ideological objectives that they exhaust
the power potential implicit in trade and aid relationships.
Rather the trade and aid programs should be -managed so. as to
preserve an environment in ll;hich pressures can be brought to
bear to serve the national interest at a later, and perhaps moi'e
criUcal, date. This emphasis on power considerations implies
both (a) that th(' assistance prof/ram cannot be based primal'ily
on humanitarian 01' idealistic goals, and (b) that economic ties
with other nations should not be severed simply because of our
disapproval of other social systems, including those based on
communism. Though typically public opinion vastly overstates
the strategic leverage that can be gained through economic
. ~()eapons, 'this leverage is still not negligible. One can argue that
in the past the United States .llas failed to take advantage of
the power potential 'implicit in aid and tmde through its failll1"e
to develop concepts and mechanisms of dete'rrence in ways akin
to 1.Oha~ has been done in the military field. Much of the
difficulty may be asc:,:ibed to a failure to develop sanctions,
which discow'age actions u~favorable to o1ir interests, as well
as incentives, which. encourage cooperation. No system of
deterrence can exclusively stress the carrot and i.qnore the stick.
},fore is being demanded of the aid program than it can
reasonablyachiet"e. Assuming that the primary emphasis of the
aid program, is to encourage social and economic dc'relopmfnt
rather than to' elicit direct SUppOl't for American foreign pollcy

objl'Ctives, it is argued that 1/'1' ,~hould allempt to derdol' slable

One tinal consideration-it would be unwise to use potential


weapons of this sort for niggling purposes. The balance of pay-
men~ has been troublesome and is properly an object of concern
in \\'ashington, but surely it is not a first-order consideration
in our relations "'ith the underde\"eloped nations. Suggestions
have been bruited about that we should make use of the aid
program to fOI'ce recipients to bu): from us in ways that go
be)'ond tied aid. Under the best of circumstances, our bargaining
power is limited, and shooting away strategic ammunition for so
paltry an economic goal would seem to reflect a poor sense of
proportion.

Aid
Within an over-all framework designed to discourage hostile
or predatory attiturles toward the West, the aid program may
seek to foster thE' maximum ratE' of economic and socbl progress.
In the basic policy of AID, the Kennedy Administration has.
explicitly adopted this goal. As has been indicated there are
costs to this decision. Outsiders are not likely to be much liked
even under the best of circumstan.ces, which hardly apply to the
underdeveloped countries, and their inten'ention in whatever
dirE'ction will in the long run excite antagonism based on' real
01' fancied wrongs. Ke\'ertheless, the basic decisio~ has been
made. Let us examine in what way we may proceed so that the
good effects clearl)' outweigh the ill effects.
There are· two initial postulates: (l) our bargaining" power
will be limited, and (2) Amel'ican notions of social reform and
of equity are neither necessarily applicable in the underdeveloped
lands, nor need we assume that those whose cooperation we
must win will tind them appealing. ThE'se postulates are inter-
related. Jointl)' they imply that we cannot press forward on
all fronts to create a societ)' in which a good American democrat
wi11 feel at home, but must instead concentj'ate our energies on
those social changes which will spur economic growth even if
the immediate results are more consistent with the cultural
genius of the peoples im"olwd r:lther than our own tastes. \Ve
ought not expect them to make the same choices as we would,
or, if they make the same choices, to achie\'e in a ten-year period
what it took us ei!!htr years to achieve. Finally, in reaching
judgments on social processes in other lands, we C3nnot apply
\yhat are our own-<Ir, in re:llit~.. higher.--:standards of purity.
As outsiders. we will bE' unable to perceive the social function
of behavior which is 'superficially corrupt, and will t~nd to lump

00607
697

it together Idth that which is purely parasi{ical. With respect


to our Qwn history. retl'ospectively we hnve come to find merit
in "'hat once were regarded as the disreputable procedures of
an organization like Tammany Hall in that it prodded a kind
of social security and a welcome for the newly arrived im-
migrant. "'e are accustomed to the daily dangling of new post
offices, good committee assignments. lind brirlges over creeks in
the outback before wavering Congressmen. and warm approval
is given. for its fine sense of political realism. to whatever ad-
ministration is doing the dangling by those who agree with its
goals. Toward similar procedures abroad we are inclined tq
take a simple muckraking attitude. We look askance at the
higgling of the political mllrket-with a naivete that would do
credit both to missionaries and old-style political reformers. If
we hope to achieve a fair measure of success. we shall hnve to
sharpen our critical faculties nnd lenrn to distinguish between
unappetizing socinl del'ices which are functional and those which
are simple barriers to progress.
The statement of objectives by AID is a very ambitious one.
The purposes of the assistance progrnm include stimulation
. of self-help. encoura~ement of progressive forces. and achieve-
IJ
'
ment of governments based on consent. which recognize the
dignity and worth of individuals who are expected to participate
in determining the nation's goals. No doubt, a statement of
aspirations is in large part window dressing, but the criteria
by which self-help is moving toward social and political progress
are more specific: a more equitable distribution of income. a
more equitable tax system with increased yields, expanded wel-
fare programs, increased political participation and civil liberties,
and so on. Several points'may be made regarding the objectives:
first. there are too many; second. they are to some extent in-
consistent; and third, they ignore the real resources avnilable.
There is. in the first place, the lonl!-perceived clash between
economic progress. on the one hand, and the combined goals of
equitable distribution of income. immediate impro\'ement in
living standards, and security on the other. This underlying
conflict spills over into a tension between I'apid economic pro-
gress and the introduction of democratic processes. On this
issue there appears to ha\'e been a revolution in informed
opinion in the Unit.cd States during the past five years. During
the late fifties, it had become almost an axiom that authoritarian.
if not totalitarian. go\'ernments had innate arlvantagcs in guid-
ing economies toward rapid growth., The prevailing view was

00608
~.
'(

698 JAMES R. SCHLESING::R

based, no doubt, on an assessment of the record of the Soviet


rei!ime, and an exnggerated notion of how much the Chinese
"Great Leap Forward" would accomplish. Perhaps the earlier
"pessimism" regarding the relative pel"formance potential of
"free" and "controlled" economies was m'erdone, but ha ...e we
not gone too fnr in the now pre\'ailing "optimism" that any clash
between economic progress and the democratic institutions which
inslII'ethe dominance of the rox populi is minimal?
The average citizen-":particularly when he is ill-housed, iII-
clolhed, ill-fed, and iII-educated-seems most likely to be in-
terested in the here and now. A government which is responsive
to the desires of the public \\·m continually be tempted to
mortgage the future for the present. The "abstinence" or
"w:liting''' which c1nssical and neoclassical economics state to
ue necessar~' ingredients in economic progl'ess will ue hard to
requil'e, as will be the incentive schemes (and the accompanying
conspicuous consumption) w[lich are Iikel~' to strike the 3\'erage
voter as inequitable. We may recNI that the Peron regime was
(and still may be?) the most popular regime in recent Latin
American history. Or we may obsen'e the economic cOl)sequences
of Brazilian democracy, and ha\'e our doubts. The inflow of
American resources may be able to make showpieces out of
sevt'ral small, recently-democratized nations like the Dominican
Republic, but we ought not nssume either that democracy assists
in economic development, or that the Dominican example is
widely applicable. This is not to say that some judicious
prodding in the direction of democracy may not be a wise policy,
but it must be judicious, and cannot be based on the assumption
that democracy necessaril~' fosters the political stapility essential
to growth.
One of the criteria by which self-help can be judged as justify-
ing additional aid is an improvement in the savings ratio. Some
stunents of the aid pro~ram would put major emphasis on
chang(os in the savings ratio in that it pro\'ides a relatively
ou;iective stannard by which an improvement in economic. per-
fonnance can be judged.· If we apply an objective stanrlard.

Activities with Possible Flap Potential

1. At thr risk of stating the obvious, almost,all of the operational


activities carried on by(FR Division I . un the risk =lr
that unauthorized disclo~~re could create enl.barrassment to the Agency.
We have accepted this as a condition precedent,'and have proceeded with
our operational activities in the most profes sional manner pos sible under
the circumstances. There are certain rather unusual activities in which
\FR DivisioIl)las participated and/or is participating'that contain some-
what greater possibility for embarrassment if discovered. I have listed
the se below, not neces sarily in order of embarras sment potential:

a.1 provides a fairly considerable


amount of support to Dr. Klssmger in his contacts with the
Chinese. This support was authorized by Mr. Ka.ramessines
and Mr. Helms. Thus far there has been no problem other'
than the inordinate amount of time spent by I
personnel, not to mention the fairly sizeabl';:;e----;:;-a-:::m;;::;-;:o:-;u:;-;n;:;-,t,.,----:;o;O-;f.----------
money that has been expended in support of these efforts.

c. Alias DocuITIentation: Clearly, FR Division does


the great ITIajority of its operational work by having its case
officers utilize alias docuITIents. All recruitments are done
in alias. Thus, the alias docunientationis a prerequisite
for effective operations I IFurtherITIore,
our case officers have utilized fully backstopped alias credit
cards for renting autoITIobiles, ITIotel rOOITIS, hotel rOOITIS
for operational meetings, etc. These credit cards are back-
stopped by accounts in alias which are proITIptly paid at the.
appropriate tiITIe. I see no probleITI in the continued use of
alias docuznentation and moreover, I feel it i"s absolutely
essential to continue using alias docuITIentation wherever and

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence •


.
THROUGH : Executive Secretary, CIA Management Committee

SUBJECT : Alleged CIA Involvement in the Ballou Case

1. ,By memorandum "dated 25 May 1973, I informed you of the


results of ,an interview of Mr. I Iwho reported that
Mr.1 r
n employee of the O~fice of Security, had
. stated dunng a (fiscUSSlOn period at Advanced Intelligence Seminar
No. 6 in September 1971 that the Office of Security had been involved
in the "Ballou case. II (The residence of Mr. Ballou, an antique gun
collector in Silver Spring, Maryland, was raided oil 7 June 1971 by
Montgomery County Police and Federal law enforcement officers.
When the office:rs,' dressed in civilian clothes, forced their way into
the house, Ballou picked up an antique pistol. The officers opened
. fire an~ seriously wounded Ballou. He was hospitalized for several
months and ':Vas left partially paralyzed. I believe he is now sUing
over the incident. ),
.
2. We interviewed Mr[ fertain other employees who
attended the Seminar, and the Director of Security to determine jus t
what was said at the Seminar and the extent of any Agency involvement
I
in the Ballou case. We find that partiCipants in the Seminar were
encouraged to discuss the details of their work and ~ssociated problems.
Mr.1 Fe'ntioned an as~ignment he h~d been or: wi~h. the U~~., . .
Secret SerV1.CC at the 1968 Natlona1 Conventions and hIS !laJ.son aChVlhes
with the Montgomery County Police.

3. I I
reports th~t in 'disc~ssiiig the latter ,subject he .
related a con\'ersanonhe had Wlth Inspector r the Mont-lof
gomery County Pqlice, sometime in June 1971 after the Ballou incident
had been rep. rted in the newspapers. Ac,,'!)rding tol lthe '
'I police inspector had thanked him for some amplifying eqUIpment uie
I Agency had given to the Montgomery County Police and remarked that

I this equipment had probably saved a policeman's life. The inspector


co.m.mented that the account of the Ballou incident appearing in the
press was not the whole story. With the aid of the equipment the
Agency had provided, the police had intercepted a telephone call
\-J
I,
. from Ballou to a friend in which Ballou outmed plans to "kill a cop." /.
The police then staged a raid to forestall Ballou's plan, and it was . 1
daring this raid that Ballou was shot.

i 4.I Jsaid that he has no other knowledge of the Ballou

I1 1
~e, except lor wna he has read in the newspapers, and that he has
not had any other conversations about the case with any members of
the Montgomery County Polic"e. We learned nothing from our inquiries
that would indicate any other Agency involve=nent in the Ballou case.
"•
s. The following are related excerpts from the "Family Jewels"
aabDlission of the Director of Security on 16 May 1973:

During the period from 1968 to 1973. several items of


Positive audio equipment consisting pri.clarily of clandestine
. transmitters and touch-tone dial recorders were loaned to
the Metropolitan Police Departnlent; Fairfax County, Virginia,
Polic.e DepartInent; Montgomery County, Maryland, Police
Department; New York City Police Department; and the SaI}.
Francisco, California, Police Departlnent.

1 II
On 25 July 1968. and at the specific request of the
United States Secret Service, this Office provided two audio
I
counterllleasures technicians to the United States Secret Service
in connection with the Democratic National Convention held in
Chicago, Illinois. This was not an official detail although
both men were proVided with temporary credentials identifying
thexn as being affiliated with the United States Secret Service.

On 15 August 1968. we detailed the same two men to the


United States Secret Service to cover the Republican National
Convention in Miami, Florida. On both occasions. the team
menlbers were debriefed upon their return ~nd it is clear that
their activities were confined exclusiv~ly to sweeping the
candidate~' and potential candidates' quarters.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence

THROUGH : Executive Secretary, CIA Management Committee

SUBJECT : Alleged CIA Involvement in the Ballou Case

1. By memorandwn dated 25 May 1973, I informed you of the


r.esults of an interview of Mr.! Iwho reported that
Mr. \ I
an employee of the 011lce of Security,. had
stated during a diSCUSSIon period at Advanced Intelligence Seminar
No. 6 in September 1971 that the Office of Security had been involved
in the "Ballou case. " (The residence of Mr. Ballou, 'an antique gun
collector in Silver Spring, Maryland, was raided on 7 June 1971 by
Montgomery County Police and Federal law enforcement officers.
When the officers, dressed in civilian clothes, forced their way into
the house, Ballou picked up an antique pistol. The officers opened
fire and seriously wounded Bal~ou. He was hospitalized for several
months and was left partially paralyzed. I believe he is now sUing
over the incident. )

We interviewed Mr. 'I


2.. /certain other employees' who
attended the Seminar, and the Duector of Security to determ:ne just
what was said at the Seminar and the extent of any Agency involvement
in the Ballou case. We find that participants i,n the Seminar we1"e
encor::ged tr discuss the details of their work and associated problems.
-Mr. mentioned an assignment he he.d been on with the U. S.
_Secre erVIce at the 1968 National Conventions and his liaison activities
with the Montgomery County Police.

3. I reports that in discussing the latter subject he


related a conversahon he had with Inspectorl pf the Mont-
gomery County Police, sometime in June 1971 after the Ballou incident
had been repc..::-ted in the newspapers. According tol ~he
I I had thanked him for some amplifying equipment the
Agency had gIven to the Montgomery County Police and remarked that

00646'
- .. -- ~

this equipment had probably saved a policeman's life. The inspector


comm.ented that the account of the Ballou incident appearing m
the
press was not the whole story. With the aid of the equipment the
Agency bad provided, the police had intercepted a telephone call
froIn. Ballou to a friend in which Ballou outlined plans to "kill a cop. "
The police then staged a raid to forestall Ballou's plan, and it was
daring this raid that Ballou was shot.

4,I I
said that he has no other knowledge of the Ballou
case, except for what he has rea? in the newspapers, and that he has
not bad any other conversations about the case with any members of
the Montgomery County Police. We learned nothing from our inquiries
that would indicate any other Agency involvem~t in the Ballou case.

5. The following are related excerpts fro=n the "Family Jewels"


submission of the Director of Security on 16 1.1ay 1973:

During the period from 1968 to 1973, several items of


positive audio equipment consisting primarily of clandestine
transmitters and touch-tone dial" recorders were loaned to
the Metropolitan Police Department; Fairfax County, Virginia,
Police Department; Montgomery County, :Maryland, Police
Department; New York City· Police DepartInent; and the Sat).
Francisco, California, Police Department.

On 25 July 1968, and at the specific request of the


United States Secret Service, this Office provided two a·udio
countermeasures technicians to the United States Secret Service
in connection with the Democratic National Convention held in
. Chicago, Illinois. This was not an official detail although
both men were provided with temporary credentials identifying
them as being affiliated with the United States Secret Service.

On 15 August 1968, we detailed the SaIne two men to the


United States Secret Service to cover the Republican National
Convention in Mianli, Florida. On both occasions, the team
members were debriefed upon their retur:::l and it is clear that
their activities were confined exclusively :0 sweeping the
candidate~I and potential candidates I quarters.

1. On 31 May 1973 I questioned about what he I I
had said at the Advanced Intelligence Seminar No. 6 and the extent
and nature of the relations he had had with the Montgomery County
Polic~. He said that he and others had been encouraged to discuss
their work and the problems related thereto with other Seminar
members and told that what they said would pe II non - a ttributable."
In this context he had discussed the Office of Security· 5 relati~s
with local Police Forces including the Police Force in ~~1l:tgomery
County. He said he mentioned the "Ballou Case" as an example
of how ~e Montgomery County Police had used equipment provided
by the Agency in their work, but denied that he had said or implied
that the Agency was lIinvolv~dll in the Ballou case. He said that he
ha:d ' also related to the other Seminar members the fact that the
Agency had provided assistance to the Secret Service in connection
with ~he protection of the,President and Vice President and that he
and others had been detailed to work with the Secret Service on
counter-audio activities at the 1968 Democratic National Convention
in Chicago and the Republican National Convention in Miami. I
.. asked I JWhO was on the Chicago detail, if he was
detailed to protecteVice"President. He said that he was detailed
to Tom Kelly, Deputy Chief of the Secret Service and worked in
effect as a member of the Secret Service under Mr. Kelly.

z.
I questioned I
as to whether his relations withI
. the Montgomery County Police was training oriented, equipment
oriented, or if he had engaged in any operations or activities with
the police. He said his relations with the Police had been entirely
equipment oriented and had been limited to the Chief of Police and
one o~ two senior Inspectors. The extent of assistance given con-
sisted of the Agency providing the Police ~ith surplus technical

00649
'\;.
·r

equipment which was of no further use to the Agency, and


briefing them as to its use. He said he would not define these
briefings as training, but admitted that it might be so construed.

I 3. I said that his only knowledge of the "Ballou


Case", except what he had read in the papers, came from one
telephone conversation he had with Ins pector I pf the
Montgomery County Police sometime after accounts of the Ballou
shooting had appeared in the press. He said the Inspector called
to thank him for some amplifying equipment the Agency had given
the Police and mentioned that it had probably saved the life of a
policeman. He said that the Inspector explained to him that the
account of the incident appearing in the press was not the whole
story, that with the aid of the equipment the Agency had provided
the Police had been able to intercept a telephone call from Ballou
to a friend in which Ballou had outlined plans to "kill a cop. "
The Police had then staged a raid to forestall Ballou's plan and it
was during this raid that Ballou was shot. I Isaid
that he had had no other conversations with the Montgomery
County Police on that subject. He said he had mentioned it at
the Seminar as an example of the sensitivity involved in the
Agency's dealings with domestic Police Forces. He said he
recalled that there was quite a bit of discussion and argument
by the Seminar members about the propriety of the Agency assist-
ing local police forces and working with the Secret Service· in the .
U. S., but that he did not recall any extensive discus sion about the
Ballou Case and that at no time had he said that the AgenCoas
directly involved. I Isaid he remembered that
reemed particularly concerned about the Agency nvo ve-
---=m=-=e-=n&:t--:l'-n::-::dT:omestic activities and that sometime later, around
January or February 1972, I ~alked to Colonel White about his
concern and Colonel White in turn talked to the Director of Security.
Since that date, he said, he has not had any further direct contact
with the Montgomery County Police, based upon orders of the
Director of Security.

Dear Mr. Shearer:

Thank you for your lettcr of February 7, 1972, and its


kind words about me. As you can itnaglnc, your chzllcnge sct
me to work to meet it. As a result I can say, under oath if
need be, that CIA has never carried out a polit.ical assassin.?tion,
nor has it induced, cmploycd or suggested one which occurred.
Whether this fully n1.eets your challenge, I cannot t:CiY (it tak.~s
two to tango), but it is a long way from the 'original staten'~~nt in
Mr. Scott1s coluIT.n that CIA "uses politicc;.l assassb2tion as a
weapon." Perhaps 1 am too sensitive, but I would hope y01.1 coulci
set the record straight for your readers. .

Dear General Col~y:

(1) Thank you for your article, "Should Lesbians Be


To Play Professional Football'}" I found it intrirruintr.
Al1o~'ied
and we plan to run it in a future issue under your by-line, of
course.
(2) Thank you for arranain~ ~ tan~o with me and Dick
Helms of Her Majesty's Tel Aviv Rifles. Even At Williams,
Dick \'laS one of the great tan.cro-irtlsts of our time. Garfinkels,:
Woodrop-Lathrop, even Hechts---in fact, any place and time of
your choosin~ is O.K. with me.
(J) One sad notel Will you tell An~us we cannot use
his ne"l car bumper sticker: LICK DICK in 1172, because it is
,open to misinterpretation. In addition, wa try to remain
politically neutral. ~

(4) As to your willin~ncss to say under oath tha~ the


CIA has never been party to political assassination, I, of
late, have beentravelLln~a good deal. In the course of my
travels r happened to encounter OleO' Penkovsky--not your
01ea:--- but Penkovsky, a bartender, in Cleveland ,··Ohio.
Penkovsky told me tha~ you signe~a secrecy a~~eement, For~
270, lIii tnessed by Victor L. Earchetti. Under the terms of
this as:rree;nent you are pled~ed to eternal silence concerninrr
CIA activities. Unless you have a special Papal dispensation---
the kind S<':i ven Allen Du LIes and Lyman Kirkpatriclr. Jr., it seems
to me you are lip-sealed.
Perhaps this does not apply to hearln~s before
the Senate Forei~n Relations Co~cittee or the prestiaious
Council o,'~ Foreicm Relations. If this is so, please let me
know; and we will take it from there.
(5) ,I will be in Washln~ton
shortly stayinlT at the
.
home of Jack Anderson out in Silver SprinP:'. Perhs.ps '\'~e can
meet there for a. scalI SUI!l!Ili t. I 'Nil1 have l'l1 th me severEd

them and me, too.

Dear Mr. Shearer.

Thank you for your letter of February 7, 1972, and ita


kind words about me. As you can iInagine, your challenge set
me to work to D"lCet it. As a result I can say, under oath if
need be, that CIA has never carried out a political <ls5assin<:'.t~on,
nor has it induced, employed or .suggested one which occurred.
Whether this fully meets your challenge, I cannot say (it tak(:1J
two to tango), but it is a long way from the orieinal statement in
Mr. Scott's column that Cl!\ "uses political assassination ns a
weapon." Perhaps I am too sensitive, but I would hope you could
set the record straight for your reade rB.

Sincerely,

w. E. Colby

Dear Hr. ColbyY

Thank you for your kind and informative letter of


January 11 concerning Operation Phoenix.
I don t t "'ant to get into a running word-battle 'Ni th,
you on the subject of political assassination in Indo-China
or the role of' CIA and other of our agencies in Operation
Phoenix.
I am just ~onderin5 ~f you would care to say flatly
that the CIA has never used political assassination in
Indo-China or elsewhere and has never induced', employed, or
~uggested to others that such tactics or devices be employed.
If you \>1111 make that flat statement under oath, I will
not only apo'Logize, I will tango with Dick Hel~s in
Garfinckel t s largest show rlindol'l at 14th and F--providing,
of course, l'irs. Helms gives her permission.
Agcin, I thank you for your 1~terest and commend you
for the really outstanding service you have rendered 'the
country. You are indeed one of Helms' finest.

resp0:lses 6tated that CIA I~es political assa£Gination ao a weapon" and
that Operation Phoonix "run by the CIA cttabliah.3d a new high for U. S.

in CIA for many years and was also (during <1et.&lched service from CU.. ) rc-
.ponoible for U. S. GUP?orl to Opcration Phoenix, I beliove I am uniquely'
qualified to teotify (as I h!lve in public Gcssion under oath to Senate and House
Committees) that:

a. CIA does net nnd has not used political as:!:lfisination as a.


wCZlpon.

b. Opel'ation Phoenix was run not by the CIA but by tha Govern-
ment of Victn~m,with the liupport of the CORDS clement of the U. S.
Military Assistance Com..'TInnd in coordination with scveral U. S.
agencies including CIA.' .
c. Qpc,-ation Phoenix 10 not llnd was not a progrnm of aGBilGaiiU-
tion. It countcred the Viet Cong apparatus attempting to overthrow
the Goverruneut of Vietnam by targetttng its leadera. Wherever pos-
sIble, these were apprehended or invited to defe-ct, b\~t a 8ubstantid
number were killed in iirefightn during military operatio:ls or re-

degree, between thc:le cornbat casualties, (even including the few
abusee which oceun-cd) and the victims of the Viet Gong's sYGtcmatic
camJhlign of terrorism to which Mr. Scott quito accurutely referred.

Milit.lry Assistancc Cor,nmand in coordination with several U. s.
agencies including CIA.
c. Operation Phoenix is not and was not a prograITl of assasBina-

the Government of VictnaITl by targctting its leaders. Wherever pos-

Dear Mr. Shearer:

In your issue of January 9th, one of Walter Scott's Personality


Parade responses stated that CIA "uses political assassination as a
weapon" and that Operation Phoenix 'lrun by the CIA established a new
high for U. S. political assassinations in Vietnam. II Since I have held
responsible positions in CIA for many years and was also (during de-
tached service !rOln CIA) responsible for U. S. support to Operation
Phoenix, I believe I am uniquely qualified to testify (as I have in public
session under oath to Senate and House Committees) that:

a. CIA .does not and has not used political assassination as


a weapon.

b. Operation Phoeni-x was run not by the CIA but by the


Government of Vietnam with the support of the CORDS element
of the U. S. Military Assistance Command in coordination with
several U. ~. agencie's including CIA.

. c. Operation.., Phoenix is not and was not a Pfogram of


as sassination:-but::...rather ~endeavPL~o counte<the Viet Cong
apparatus lea-d-in-g::-t-he attempt;to overthrow the Govcrmnent of
