On 2 May 1977 Chris Hopkins and Annie Goodpasture visited the Warrentom Record's Center to review old Mexico. City files in search of additional photographs of the “unidentified man". We were unable to locate any such photographs. It appears that earlier photographs may have been destroyed in a purge of Mexico City Station files and that the folders for the destroyed material were re-used to forward more recent photographic material to Headquarters for retention.

He specifically referred to Soviet | consular officials Pavel Antonovich Yatskov and Valeriy “Viadimirovich Kostikov, one or both of whom Oswald contacted at the Soviet Embassy. (Both Yatskov and Xostikov were identified in the Commission's Report as consular officials and KGB representatives.) I told him that CIA did not have Oswald under investigation when he was in Mexico City; directed his attention to the pertinent exhibit; and explained that the KGB affiliations of the . two Soviets were supplied by CIA exverts who were aware : of their activities and not by any thing | said or indicated ‘by Oswald in the evidence compiled by us.-Mr. Ichord examined the exhibit, noted that Oswald's efforts only related to securing visas; indicated that he had been misinformed; and said that he had no. further ques tions to ask on this point. ; 3. He said that his question was Sparked by Bernard Tensterwald, Jr. a former constituent, about whom he knew very little when he requested the documents. Since then he has learned of Fensterwald's dubious credential as an expert on the assassination and of his association with Jim Garrisson and others of questionavle repute. I detailed our own difficulties with Fensterwald, his insistence that we are hiding something, and how, as Executive Director of the Committee to Investigate Assassinations, he has been vressing us to release our classified documents under threat of invoking the Freedom of Information Act.

I nentioned that Fensterwald told us a year ago that 4 Imew tke identity of the unknown man but so far has not volunteered his name. One of Garrisson's charges was that ' Oswald was a CIA agent and-that we cut him out of the picture. I took the occasion to stress that Oswald was not a CIA agent and that we never had anvthing to do with : hin 5S. I mentioned that when the President's Commission. came into existence Mr. Helms issued specific instructions to cooperate fully with the Commission and to give it complete access to any information bearing on the assassina- a tion; that Commission members, at Mr. Heln's invitation visited our Mexico : station for an on-the-scene briefing and inspection. I told him that we have not released exhibits relating to Ostrald's visits to the Soviet and Cuban Embassies, because the sources of the. above information are extremely sensitive and still productive. | Mr, Ichord fully agreed on this score and complimented us { on the extent of our coverage. : ; 4 | 6. Hr. Ichord asked what steps CIA was taking to declassify its other documents. I told him of the required five year cycle (Cone © coming un shortly), the review process, our interim releases, and CIA's desire to release them all as quickly as the need for protecting them subsides. I pointed out that most of our material consists of "nut complaints", rumors, gossip, etc; which have no security : Significance per se but could he embarassing to innocent : persons; disclose a productive and friendly foreign source; or acknowledge CIA's presence abroad where diplomatically this would be inadvisable. I cited our experience with the "crank call" that originated in | how in 1968 we tried to declassify. this exhibit but . security officials objected on the grounds that it would publicly acknowledge CIA presence on their soil and pernaps stir unwarranted controversy. I stated that despite the above-type problems we gradually have been declassi fying 1 ‘ : 4 ye iealics «SREP «sme Oem ERED Meee peter te SS * eS Sy Aor SOD whe Mette OG EE A rey

I mentioned in passing, that two other things beyond our control have contributed to the misconceptions over our exhibits: A)The inadvertent release by National Archives of the master list of numbered exhibits shortly after the demise of the President's Commission without distinguishing between overt and classified items; and 3) the fuct that many exhibits bear different numbers but are interrelated, thus giving a false impression that there are more. exhibits than is the case. Tne release of the master list.without the accomoanying documents caused much apprehension and misinterpretation, particularly among assassination "buffs" and Agency critics. I cited ~ the "Oswald and the U-2" entry which was widely exploited until we declassified the document a counle of years ago. 8. Mr. Ichord asked if any CIA members servec..on the President's Commission. I said no, but mentioned that former DCI Allen Dulles was on the Commission. He then turned to the makeup of the Commission staff and how it. was chosen. I replied that we were not really competent -:: ‘to comment on how it was chosen but the staff consisted , largely of attorneys of varied political and ethnical backgrounds from widely separated parts of the country; organized anda highly motivated, hard working group. 9, Mr. Ichord stated that he had no further questions to ask and thanked us for easing his mind. We offered to produce any other documents he might wish. to see. Mr. Ichord replied that this would not be necessary. He returned our ‘exhibits and. told us to consider the matter closed, ‘ . . o. . that, from my observatio:, the Commission was impressively.

Yesterday morning Mr. Blakey, in the prologue that he gives prior to testimony, made statements as follows: "the Cuban Government has suggested that pictures should exist of....the Consulate taken from a surveillance camera....the Cuban Government has provided photographs of the surveillance site (Blakey entered into record)....the Committee has investigated who was responsible for the . surveillance..:.and sought to interview the ' person(s) who operated the site....no pictures of LHO have been located ceeee " He had told us no mention would be made of CIA photographic or telephone operations. in Mexico. This. obviously raises ~ AHS the question directly. “ 2. At a meeting yesterday afternoon with one of the senior staff members, Mr. Goldsmith, I complained about this, observing that there was a commitment. to avoid such mention. It struck me as strange that this source was used as a way to get it into the record anyway. 3. Observing | ‘that the HSCA was concerned with its credibility I asked how it would seem to the press if the Committee appeared as hand maiden of the Cuban government in its current propaganda attack on CIA. I said we could not approach the press, but HSCA should be. aware of how alert the press is to such things. 4. I reminded him that we had sought a hearing in executive session on the Nosenko and Mexico subjects, and.had been refused. I was not renewing that request, (EXECUTIVE.

Reminding him that CIA is part of the U.S. Government, I told him this inquiry is not a courtroom case, but involves considerations of national importance and international implications, and they should keep it in mind. ‘s «6. Saying that I had not discussed the matter with anyone in the Agency, I asked that he convey my personal concern to Mr. Blakey. He said he would. S. D.
