Documents / FOIA release
This Central Intelligence Agency file, dated 29 September 1975, collects Office of Security memoranda written while the Senate Select Committee was investigating the Agency. Staff were told to alert former employees about possible committee contact over Project MERRIMAC/RESISTANCE, and the file answers committee questions about Hayes International and Bay of Pigs pilots. It also records staff interviews about CIA name checks at NSA and a Justice Department request for records on domestic electronic surveillance. It contains no material on UFOs.

The next three marked items do not appear on their face to present -problems, although D/NIO may wish to review the reference to an ONE memorandum. on Chile, publication of which might expose it to public attention. 0. 19 April. 1972 — I would think that a discussion of the newspaper stori.es can be released. The next item that is marked raises the question of international relations and the very fact that the issue was raised puts it in a special category and should be considered carefully. » p. Zl April. 1972 — No problems with the item on Ma-rchetti, although as in other instances the appearance of Thuermer's name presents a question. q. 1 May 1972 - No problems. Of the four items marked on the second page of the minutes the only question that I have is the use of the name o.f Brittenham. If released, and I assurne it will be, Brittenham should probably be advised. r. 3 May 1972 — The twoiterns on the second page of the minutes have to do with Congressional hearings and are releasable. The marked item on the Moscow signals merely reveals interest on a subject that has subsequently received considerable publicity, as Well as confirmation. - s. 4 May 1972 -— No problem with the first and last items except the question on Thuermer's name. The ' items on sensitive ORD and TSD contracts (the 5th item in the minutes) present problems,‘ but possibly can be sanitized. t. 17 May l972 - No problems, except for the reference to specific budgetary figures and the NRO reference. -3- rx .1 “-J"~ .- I é 1‘-. 5*.-*1 F. ____\p.>1‘g\n1"'F./;.'.i.“'i.l l
