        MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD:

        SUBJECT                     KIMSEY, Herman


             1.  On 22 July 1965, Ma  .advised the under-
        signed that she had received a cail from  r. Kimsey and that
        she was concerned inasmuch as he appeared to have up-to-date
        information regarding activities within TSD.  She will discuss
        this with the undersigned in detail at 0900 hours on
        23 July 1965.

             2.  Mr. Jan Beck, TSD/QDS, was contacted to determine
        if he had received calls from Mr. Kimsey.  He stated that a
        call was received at his home on Saturday,.17 July 1965.  His
        wife took the call as he was not available and.Kimsey advised
        he would call back.  On 21 July, he called Jan at the office.
        In addition to normal chit-chat, Mr. Kimsey indicated a desire
        to get in touch.with Lon Thomas of TSD/QDS.  He seemed to be
        aware, however  that Lon was not here and was attending the.
        International Conference of Questioned Documents Examiners in
        Los Angeles.  The gist of .Kimsey's interest in the contact.
        with Lon Thomas appeared to be for the purpose of having him
        pick up something from the Identi-Kit people in the Los Angeles
        area (Townsend Company,,Identi-Kit Division, 805 South.Grand
        Avenue, Santa Ana, California).  Kimsey is said to be a close
        friend of Courtney E. Owens, Chief, of Identi-Kit Division and
        apparently has some business with him.  Mr. Beck indicated that
        he got the idea from Kimsefs conversation that someone from
        Identi-Kit who would be at the International Convention may
        contact Lon Thomas while he is there.  Mr. Kimsey did not ask
        about other people he knows at TSD.  His questions were more
        on the order of How is everything going?

             3.  Kimsey stated to Beck that he was working with a
        security. assoation  or company and that they were making a
        security ;       installation in the Kuwait Embassy (the Kuwait
        Embassy was burglarized recently).

             4.  Mr. Lon Thomas will be queried regarding his contact
        with Kimsey upon his return to Washin ton.
