•8. (Confidential - DFM) LIAISON Called Bill Miller, Staff

Director, Senate Select Conmittee on Intelligence, to clarify a report

we had received from our Tokyo

Station)that a group of five Select

Committee members were planning to visit Tokyo, but not before 15 November.

Miller knew nothing about this visit and I so informed Phil Fendig's,

•SA/DO/O, office.

9. (Internal Use Only - DEM) LIAISON Called Elliot Maxwell,

Senate Select Committee on Intelligence staff, regarding Senator Waller

Huddleston's (D., Ky.) proposed trip to Israel which Maxwell had mentioned

to me at the CI briefing on 3 November. Maxwell said it now appeared the

trip was off and he would let me know if there was any change in that status.

10. (Unclassified - DEM) LIAISON Called Sherry Towell, Senate

Select Committee on Committees staff.

I told Ms. Towell I was very

interested in the work of the Committee and would appreciate any information

she could give me about the Committee's recommendations for restructuring

of the Senate committee system. She put my name on the mailing list and

offered to send me some material immediately. She also said that the

Select Committee would have their recommendations considered as the first

order of business in the new Congress so that no committee assignments

would be made until the Senate had considered the recommendations.

11. (Unclassified - LLM) LIAISON Jacqueline Hess, House Select

Committeron Assassinations staff, called concerning the request regarding.

the number of CIA people involved in the Warren Commission. After

checking with Scott Breckinridge, Deputy Inspector General, I told her

that the number was approximately 50 professionals, 12 of them on a

relatively full-time basis, somewhat up from the figures of 30 and 10

which I had provided Patricia Ort, also on the Committee staff, on

Wednesday.

12. (Unclassified - NDL) LIAISON Received a call from Debby

Machemehl, on the staff of Representative Edwin D. Eshleman (R., Pa.),

who said that the Congressman was retiring and that his Administrative

Assistant, Robert S. Walker, would be taking his place and wanted to

continue receiving the same FBIS reports that Representative Eshleman

is now receiving. After chocking with FBIS Liaison, I called Ms. Machemehl

back and told her there would be no problem.
