Robert Blakey, Chief Counsel and Director, HSCA 1. Messrs. William Sturbitts, DDO/LA; Dale Sumption DDO/SE; Julian Fox, CI Staff; Jack Sullivan, OS; Russ Holmes, and I met with Mr. Blakey this morning to discuss substantive issues in the final HSCA Committee Report. 2. I don't think we made many points although Mr. Blakey acknowledged our presentation in some instances. It is clear that Mr. Blakey intends to cite the testimony of former employee Wilcott about what he did in Japan (we had discussed this previously and achieved some compromises from a security point of view, but clearly did not prevail in obtaining deletions about Wilcott's distribution of funding operations in Japan; there is no mention ofE We also appeared to have no success in persuading Mr. Blakey to delete a summary of what the Cubans told the Committee about CIA photographic surveillance in Mexico City in 1963. 3. We have already received and commented on two drafts of sections of the report that have been received after we had been told that we have seen all the drafts. We now have yet an additional two drafts, with yet another on the way. It is hoped that these will affect the Agency but marginally and that the reviews can be completed without a major effort. If there are no more than these three last sections, this phase should be over, so far as CIA is concerned. 4. We discussed with Mr. Blakey whether the Agency should make a comment on the Nosenko paper. The paper is a sort of rambling, on-one-hand- but-on-the-other-hand type of discussion. It may prove useful for the Agency to write a memorandum to the Committee summarizing what it considers to be the key issues on the subject. 5. Blakey described his production problem. He will have page proofs of the report printed at GPO. He states that he has met every request of ours on security matters and considers the drafts to be unclassified. They will be handled in that way by GPO. When he receives D E.- c-kL4.9i T96
