26. (Secret - RSG) BRIEFING Accompanied Pat Taylor, NFAC/CSS,

Hal Davidson and Doug George, NFAC/USSR, to a briefing of Senator

Adlai Stevenson (D., Ill. ) and several members of the Senate Select

Committee on Intelligence staff regarding Soviet anti-satellite capabilities.

(See Memo for the Record)

27. (Unclassified - DTC) LIAISON Sidney Stembridge, DD/OS,

and I met with Professor G. Robert Blakey, Chief Counsel and Director,

House Select Committee on Assassinations, on two security matters.

28. (Confidential - PG) LIAISON Received a follow up telephone

call from Michael Glennon, Legal Counsel, Senate Foreign Relations

Committee, who wished to pursue the matter of the secrecy oath former

DCI Richard Helms has

referred to in recent press reports. I pointed

out that George Cary had sent five such oaths to Norvill Jones, Chief of

Staff, and that the best way to settle on which oath Mr. Helms was referring

to would be to contact Mr. Helms or his lawyer. Mr. Glennon thanked me

and agreed that this was probably the best course of action.

29. (Internal Use Only - PG) LIAISON Telephoned Bill Miller,

Staff Director, Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, to discuss

reimbursement to John H. Richardson, former Seoul station chief, 27,13-16

for Mr. Richardson's travel from Mexico to be interviewed by the

House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct and the Senate Select

Committee on Intelligence.*

I agreed to send Mr. Richardson's accounting

for his travel to Mr. Miller immediately, in the hope that Mr. Richardson

could be reimbursed prior to his departure for Mexico

Miller referred me to Martha McDonald, of his staff, and I

contacted her. She made it clear it would not be possible to reimburse

Mr. Richardson before his departure on the return leg of his trip, but

agreed to make reimbursement as promptly as possible. We worked out

an arrangement whereby the funds could be sent to Mr. Richardson's bank

and I would advise Mr. Richardson of the deposit.

30. (Confidential - PG) LIAISON Received a telephone call from

Victor Kramer, Special Counsel, Senate Select Committee on Ethics, who

inquired into the status of security clearance. As I had done several times

earlier, ladvised Mr. Kramer that we were awaiting the requisite FBI

action, which depended upon a document the FBIwas seeking to acquire

from the Immigration and Naturalization Service, and that I had urged FBI

representatives to accelerate the matter. Mr. Kramer thanked me for the

follow up action taken.
