1. Paragraph I of the referent letter (attached) requests information

which may be relevant to preparation of the Agency's position in the subject

case. It is requested that you provide this Office with the requested infor

mation, preferably in the form of a summary, along with supporting documents,

if any, from existing files. An attempt should be made, if possible, to focus

upon any specifics pertaining to CIA's acquisition of the four items addressed

to Jane Fonda. If this latter information is unavailable, please set forth the

operational details of SRPOINTER-HTLINGUAL that would be applicable to

of the SRPOINTER folder prepared by the IG in response to the separate

Presidential Commission and DOJ investigations of Agency questionable

activities.

2. At present, the extent to which the requested information might

be revealed in court cannot be determined. This Office intends to resist

production of any facts not deemed relevant to the Fonda case.

Deputy Chief, FR, after prior coordination with the ADDO and Mr. Ed

Pechous. A response by 5 March is requested.
