(Secret - PLC) LIAISON Elliott Brown, staff of the House Select Committee on Narcotics Abuse and Control, called to alert me to the article by Jack Anderson on illicit drug trafficking in Ecuador in today's Washington Post. He said the article may focus broad congressional attention to the problem. Brown will get back to me to arrange the meeting with Chairman Lester Wolff (D., N. Y.) to discuss the Agency's field report on the subject which Chairman Wolff had requested earlier. 31. (Secret - PLC) LIAISON Bill Ashbaugh, OGC, called seeking guidance to respond to a call received from an investigator with the Office of Security operating under DOD credentials. The individual entered on duty with the Agency in October 1974 and:had been a police officer with the Memphis City Police Department, during which time he was an eye-witness to the Dr. Martin Luther King assassination. A staff member of the House Select Committee on Assassinations had contacted the individual through DOD and was to interview him in the Committee offices within the hour. I told Ashbaugh that Gary Cornwell, Deputy Staff Chief of the Committee, was in my office and I would discuss the matter with Cornwell and call him back. I explained to Cornwell that the individual is actually an Agency employee and came on board in 1974. Cornwell agreed that the interviewer need not be aware of the Agency connection and I explained that we would instruct the individual to respond fully to the questions asked by the staffer, but to stay strictly within his Defense cover, Cornwell fully agreed and said no notation will be made in the Committee files on his present CIA connection. Ashbaugh was notified and I requested that he instruct the individual to maintain his cover during the interview. 32. (Unclassified - PLC) LIAISON Peter Regis, House Judiciary Committee staff, called and asked that a meeting be arranged sometime next week. for him to go over the notes he made from his review of CIA documents on alleged Nazi war criminals residing in the U.S. which we have been holding due to their classification. He will call me to set up a definite time. 33.
