# UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT## MemorandumTO: Mr. W. R. WannallyFROM: W. WeregarSUBJECT: SENSTUDY 75DATE: 6/6/75This records the results of contact with Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) concerning release to Senate Select Committee (SSC) of two documents pertaining to Appendix C, Paragraph 24 of the SSC request to the Department of 5/14/75, which requested "all memoranda and other materials reflecting conversations, contacts or 'communications between the FBI and the CIA on the subject of the establishment or creation of 'notional' Marxist-Leninist organizations withinthe United States."No information has been developed indicating this Bureau conferred with CIA regarding the establishment or creation of a Bureau-sponsored "notional" Marxist-Leninist organization. Although the FBI did, in fact, direct several such organizations, no information has been developed indicating the FBI consulted with CIA regarding their establishment or creation.In one instance, CIA advised in 2/70 it had established a notional organization with post office box addresses in Boston Massachusetts and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This notional organization, to be known as the Union for the Revolution, had the objective of developing penetrations and/or sources in revolutionary Arab groups in the Middle East. It was CIA'S intention to circulate propaganda from the post office boxes in anticipation of interesting Arab groups. Thereafter, it was CIA's plan to use its personnel under "suitable" cover to contact the Arab groups. (See memorandum dated 2/13/70, captioned "Union for the Revolution," 100-456409-2, copy attached.)By letterhead memorandum dated 3/23/70, the FBI indicated information had been received indicating the Union for the Revolution had been in contact with a domestic Marxist-Leninist organization requesting literature. This memorandum set forth an analysis of a "Statement of the Union for the Revolution" indicating the document lacked credibility as a revolutionary document. (LHM dated 3/23/70, captioned "Union for the Revolution," 100-456409-4, copy attached.)

Memorandum to Mr. AdamsRe: Senate Select Committeereason and for the reason that the Director desired to be cooperative with the Committee, we would request a meeting with Senator Church and Senator Tower to arrive at an understanding as to procedures. I told Mr. O'Connor that I would consider such a letter and he said he would discuss the matter with the Deputy Attorney General and with James Wilderotter at the White House.At approximately 9:05 a.m. on May 23, 1975, Mr. O'Connor called me and said that he had discussed the matter with Mr. Wilderotter and the Deputy Attorney General. He said that both had agreed that it was inopportune at this time to seek special guidelines for interviews of FBI personnel and former personnel with the Committee. He said that a meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, May 27, 1975, at noon in a final effort to resolve an understanding with Committee representatives. He said at the present time it is proposed that the meeting be attended by Wilderotter and Roderick Hills, representing the White House; Hoffman, representing the Defense Department; (Warner, representing CIA) and O'Connor representing the Justice Department. Committee representatives would be Schwarz, Chief Counsel, and John Elliff. He said that at this time it was his thought that the Deputy Attorney General and I should not attend the meeting. He gave as his reasoning the thought that "should something go wrong" the Deputy Attorney General could disassociate himself from any agreement arrived at, and that I would similarly be in a position of saying that we have not been a party to the agreement.I reminded Mr. O'Connor that meetings have been held frequently in the past and that tentative understandings made at such meetings have dis- appeared shortly after the meeting was concluded. I told him that was significant to us because we now understand that two more former employees of the FBI have been contacted and may be interviewed in the near future. I told him that former SA Sam Papich and former Agent Nichols have been contacted. I told him that the extent to which we should release these two former employees from their obligation of secrecy could not be intelligently evaluated unless we knew the subject matter of the interviews and that we plan to contact the Committee to inquire as to the subject matter. I pointed out to him that such pending interviews make it imperative for the FBI to consider action in addition to meetings that may be planned to discuss guidelines.- 4 - CONTINUED OVER![JFK(IXA)]

William O'Connor, Kevin Maroney, Philip White, and Robert McDermott of the Department. Bureau representatives were Mr. Callahan, Mr. Adams, Mr. Wannall and me.Mr. O'Connor discussed the request by the Senate Select Committee for access to the 39 page report by former Assistant Attorney General Petersen concerning COINTELPRO. Though objections were presented by the Bureau representatives that the report should not be furnished to the Committee, and its enclosures, particularly the legal memoranda should not be made available, the Deputy Attorney General decided and instructed that the 39 page report should be made available to John Elliff on Tuesday, June 3, 1975, for his review, at which time he would be permitted to take notes, but he would not be furnished a copy of the document. The Deputy further instructed that should Mr. Elliff request the attachments to the report, Mr. O'Connor should offer as an alternative the memoranda which initiated each of the COINTELPROS.Upon our return to the Bureau, Mr. Adams requested that the Intelligence Division undertake an analysis of each of the summaries which were attached to the Petersen report in order to make a damage assessment based on factors that would affect current Bureau operations should they be revealed to the Committee.
