Memorandum from John A. Hartingh to Mrs. Morris, dated 11/7/95

Re: JEK TASK FORCE

In view of the above, in approximately seven to

fourteen calendar days, the source/informant index cards will be

removed from storage boxes, placed in three file cabinets, and

com storage boxes

temporarily transferred to a secure space maintained by the JFK

Task Force in Room 6362. The cards will continue to serve as a

research tool for the Task Force, being accessed by only two

Special File Room employees currently detailed to the Task Force.

The two employees possess the seven security clearances assigned

as Special File Room employees which permit them

appropriate access to the index cards.

The retention of these cards by the JFK Task Force will

be in effect until it has completed the project; has been

approved by the Criminal Investigative Division

(CID) and the

National Security Division (NSD).

Jerry R. Donahoe, Unit Chiet,

Asset Unit, NSD and Neil F. Divers, Unit Chief Sensitive

Information Unit, CID, were contacted and approved the transfer

of the source/informant index cards.

In addition, Pamela E.

Marshall, File Supervisor of the Special File Room was consulted

regarding this matter and agreed to the transfer of the cards.
