In his 21 February 1992 speech to the Oklahoma Press

custody of

all documents CIA possesses relating to the assassination of

President Kennedy to the Historical Review Program," which he

assigned to the Center for the Study of Intelligence (CSI) in

the

same speech.

David Gries, the new Director of CSI, has asked

CSI's Historical Review Group to begin work on declassifying the

collection of records that CIA holds as a result of the 1976-1979

investigations by the House Select Committee on Assassinations

(HSCA) of President Kennedy's assassination.

2.

Pursuant to the DCI's directions, we therefore request

approval for all members of CSI (which includes the Director and

his staff, the History Staff, and the Historical Review Group) to

have access to all records that CIA holds relevant to the HSCA

investigation.

We understand that 64 boxes of material have been

specifically designated as related to this investigation.
