handle is hein.jfk/jfkarch08247 and id is 1 raw text is: 104.1065-10223 6 October 1978 MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD SUBJECT Manuscript of Former COS, Mexico City 1. Yesterday morning Mr. Charles Berk of the HSCA Staff asked to have certain documents transmitted to the CIA work area in the HSCA offices for use in the depo- sitions of James Angleton which were being taken on 5 . October 1978. This is the first time that we have received such a request on such short notice, but the responsible DDO elements.were asked to assemble the documents and review them for any special sensitivity prior to delivery to the HSCA. This use is under a practice established in April/May of this year whereby documents reviewed at Headquarters could be used under CIA control for deposi- tions. 2. The LA Division representative phoned to inquire as to whether there was a property interest on the part of the estate of Win Scott, former COS, Mexico City, which may affect our delivery of that document to HSCA. I obtained a first opinion from OGC that there might be a property interest that would in some way be affected, subject to the nature of the delivery of the material to the Agency. I undertook to contact John Horton,n now retired, for such info as he may be able to give us. His home phone is (301) 373-2523. I spoke with his wife who referred to me yet another number., C301) 373-2626. 3. While I was trying to locate Mr. Horton .and establish contact with him we continued to have a spirited exchange with Mr. Berk. Mr. Rininger of OGC joined us and the discussion continued. Essentially, our position was that we might have a responsibility to protect a proprietary interest on the part of the Estate, and that until we ascertained the facts we did not feel that it was appropriate for us to deliver the documents. Mr. Rininger contacted the General Counsel who expressed the opinion that we did not have a proper basis for withholding the documents from E2, IMPDET Cl by 13190
