# DOMESTIC TESTS FORAGENCY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EFFORTS1. As a normal part of ORD's efforts in the research and development of equipment and techniques for Agency applications in foreign intelligence, we conduct experiments and tests in the United States. Clearly, the design and development of our intelligence equipments can be done more economically and more securely in this country. Although most of the tests of our R&D equipments are performed in closed laboratories or in secure arcas simulating the foreign environment, some of the tests and experiments, of necessity, reveal domestic information.2. A review of the surveillance equipment or techniques which have at some time or other been exposed to domestic testing is as follows:a. Laser Probe - About 1967, the laser probe developed by ORD was tested by TSD in San Francisco under very closely controlled conditions. The ORD Project Officer witnessed portions of the test. Recordings that were made of laser probe output were carefully controlled as classified material and it is believed that the tapes have long since been destroyed. (Wood/TA)b. Microwave Intercept System - About 1968, this system was tested in a light aircraft near the Naval Ordnance Test Station in Identity 127:, California. This system is designed to permit intercept of microwave telephone communication channels of systems such as Identity 130. It works equally well against the Bell Telephone TD-2, as they are generically the same. Recordings of these telephone intercepts were carefully controlled and were destroyed several years ago.ATTACHMENT 200230

SUBJECT: Domestic Tests for Agency Research and-Development Effortsc. Telephone Intrusion Study - The objec-tive of this current program is to develop ameans to utilize foreign telephone systems asa communication link without the knowledge ofthe host system. In order to carry out thisobjective, it is necessary to learn the com-plete supervisory signalling and sequencingcontrol system hierarchy for the various foreigntelephone systems. Many of these are patternedafter the U.S. system and, for this reason,limited monitoring to test the operation ofintercept equipment in the United States isplanned. The data to be collected would bemerely the signal tones from which supervisorycodes can be extracted. Message content isof no interest and will not be recorded. Over-seas testing is planned at a subsequent date.To date, some domestic testing of this concepthas been carried out at the contractor's plant.No recordings have been made of such data. Ex-tremely brief tests exercising U.S. and foreigntelephone systems through supervisory tone sig-nalling have been carried out to verify initialconcepts. The duration of testing was lessthan one-half hour.d. Other Sensor Testing - Examples of: engineering development tests of special sensorswithin the United States include infrared andhigh-altitude photography, forward-looking IR(FLIR) flights, laser scanners, industrial efflu-ent sampling for isotopes, and airborne magne-tometer surveys for metal (rifles and trucks).In all these cases, the data output of suchtesting has been used for engineering develop-ment and the content has been restricted todissemination to those in Government involvedwith the engineering design.

SUBJECT: Domestic Tests for Agency Research andDevolopment Effortse. Remote Physiological Measurements -An ORD-developed cryogenic magnetometer isbeing tested at a contractor's site for useas a remote cardiograph (magnetocardiograph).Some test subjects are witting, but most testsare on naive subjects (they do not know theyare being tested). The magnetometer is com-pletely harmless to the subject and the testresults are closely held.f. Personality Structure of DefectorsStudy - ORD undertook to determine the per-sonality structure of defectors during theperiod 1966-69. The work primarily involvedan analysis of the open literature on knowndefectors. An ancillary effort was concernedwith a study of the phenomenon of defectionitself, i.e., leaving one religion for another,or changing one set of political beliefs foranother. The work was conducted at StanfordUniversity. Identity 125/LS)g. Trained Birds - Birds have been trainedand tested in the United States to carry smallintelligence collecting packages such as audiosurveillance devices, small cameras, and cur-rent measuring devices. Any data collectedfrom unwitting domestic sources would have beenused only for engineering purposes and thendestroyed.h. Communications Link Loading Study - Inthe period from 1970 through 1972 various meanswere used to check out an intercept system designedto operate against Iden 93 communications links.Under carefully controlled conditions, some U. S.microwave communications were recorded and passedthrough the intercept system under test to provequality of performance. All intercept materialconnected with this was destroyed within a few weeksof the time of intercept and the material was neverchecked for substantive content. NSA participatedand controlled most elements of the U. S. material.

29 MAY 1973MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Secretary CIA ManagementCommitteeSUBJECT: Reported Identity 61, Burglary1. Attached is a report summarizing what we know about the reported break-in of Identity 61. An investigative report by an officer of the Executive Protective Service states that the offices were ransacked and a number of personal items stolen.2. The attached summary also describes a separate audio operation conducted against Identity 61 by the FBI, at the Agency's behest and with its technical support. This presents a related question that should be noted. James McCord's testimony indicates that he placed telephone calls to the Identity 75 and Identity 61. He says he picked the numbers at random, hoping that if his phone was tapped his attorneys would be able to challenge the evidence as being tainted. Another witness, John Caulfield, says McCord called the two named Iden 75 and Iden 61 because he "was sure" they "were subjects of national security wiretaps."3. In fact, there has been a long-standing telephone tap on the Identity 75, run by the FBI, about which CI Staff believes McCord knew. It is possible that he also had an inkling of some sort of operation against Identity 61, and assumed that it was also a telephone tap. One must speculate that he played for double insurance, hoping that both his telephones and those of the Iden 75 and Iden 61 were tapped, and that one way or another his case would be dismissed or dropped because of tainted evidence or to avoid revealing the sensitive operations. At this point, given the publicity of the Iden 61 break-in, and the testimony of McCord and Caulfield, the current investigations may lead to exposure of the operations.William V.

24 May 1973MEMORANDUM FOR: Inspector GeneralSUBJECT: Reported Burglary of the Identity 61.1. The press reported a burglary of Identity 61 13-14 May 1973. An investigative report by an officer of the Executive Protective Service states that the offices were ransacked and a number of personal items were stolen. There were some latent fingerprints, but no identification was made. The FBI, which states that the incident was on 15 May, did not investigate because it determined that it did not have jurisdiction. The Identity 61 registered a formal complaint and American regrets were expressed, Identity 61 making it clear that they suspected something other than ordinary robbery. We have no additional information on the subject. There had been an earlier intelligence operation against the Identity 61 which is described below.2. On 16 April 1971 the Agency proposed to the FBI the installation of technical coverage of Identity 61 The opportunity for such an installation came about when a domestic asset of Foreign Resources Division reported that he had been asked to submit a bid for a contract to renovate Identity 61 Upon securing the contract the asset was willing to augment his work force as appropriate or install material which would be provided him. (The Agency proposed to turn this asset over to the FBI and to provide technical and logistic support. The value of such an operation to the intelligence community was cited.)3. On 23 April 1971 FBI Director John Edgar Hoover turned down the Agency proposal. That same day CIA Director Richard Helms sent a letter to Attorney-General John Mitchell requesting that the FBI turndown be reversed, citing the importance of the Iden 61 target and national intelligence needs to collect positive intelligence. On 24 April the Attorney-General reversed the FBI decision and the Washington Field Office of the Bureau was instructed to proceed with the operation.1

4. During the period from 26 April to 18 May all the technical equipment from the Agency to the FBI was delivered, installed and tested. Everything seemed to be working. No Agency personnel were involved in any way with actual installation of equipment in Identity 6.1 From May to February Agency technicians helped calibrate, reset and do other repair work on occasions of equipment failure in the FBI listening post. On no occasion did they enter Identity 61.5. The Agency requested that coverage of Identity 61 be stopped on 3 February 1972 after FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover advised that he was scheduled shortly to testify in Congress and might have to advise them that the installation in Identity 61 was initiated at CIA's request. The operation and equipment, to the best of the Agency's knowledge, was dormant until 8 December 1972 when the FBI was asked by the Agency to reactivate coverage. The request at this time was occasioned by the knowledge that a Iden 76 delegation would be arriving in Washington for discussions on nationalization of foreign holdings. While the FBI was still in the process of reactivating the equipment, the Department of State on 20 December 1972 requested the FBI to institute all possible coverage of Identity 61 and on 22 December 1972 coverage was partially reinstituted with full coverage in effect by 26 December 1972.6. A review of the take from the operation, weighed against the risks involved, led the Agency to conclude that the activity was not worth continuing. On 16 February 1973 CIA requested the FBI to discontinue the coverage. On 22 February 1973 the FBI advised that microphone surveillance of Iden 61 was discontinued.- 2 -John C. Richards00363
