MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

SUBJECT: Senate   Select Committee on Presidential Campaign Activities
              Testimony of 4 February 1974




       1. This, the first day of hearings involving Agency witnesses to
testify under oath in executive session with Vice Chairman Howard Baker
presiding, was held in S. 1418, Dirksen Office Building. Although scheduled
to commence  at 0930 hours, Senator Baker did not show up to swear in the
witnesses until 1025 hours at which time he administered the oath to Mary
McGillen, Robert Ritchie, Martin Lukoskie, and Erich Isenstead and then
left.

       2. Background:

           a. As  a result of previous sessions with Senator Baker
       and his counsel the following Agency witnesses were scheduled:
       Mary McGillen, Robert Ritchie, Martin Lukoskie, Erich
       Isenstead, James Angleton, Richard A. Krueger, Steven
       Greenwood,  Dr. Sidney Gottlieb, Thomas Karamessines,
       Frank O'Malley, and Jacob Esterline.

           b. Those  witnesses who were able to assemble were met
       as a group on Saturday, 2 February, with Mr. Lansdale, Office
       of General Counsel, and myself meeting each one individually..
       It was pointed out to all that:

               (1) Their appearance before the Committee was
           voluntary; the Agency was not directing them to appear,
           but, of course, the Committee had the power of subpoena.
