                                              3 January 1996


           Note To:  D/CSI

           Subject:  JFK Appeal

                1. Attached is an advance copy of the memorandum for
           the DCI being prepared by DO/IMS (with OGC's help)
           requesting an appeal of certain ARRB.decisions.  The
           memorandum is currently (this a.m.) being redone in DO/IMS
           for technical reasons (wrong font, distribution, etc.).  The
           DDO is expected to see it this afternoon or tomorrow.  After
           DO approval, the memorandum will pass through OGC (Smith)
           and CSI for comments before going to the DCI.

                2.  HRG reviewers are not convinced that the LI-RYPT
           issue (Attachment A) should be appealed.  While the DO
           makes a good case on the particular document in question,
           given .the extensive information on laiso  with     Mexicans
           that has been released in documents dated after November 22
           1963, HRG reviewers question this as an appeal issue.  I
           discussed the issue with John, but we did not come to a
           final HRG position.

                3. HRG reviewers support the appeal in Attachment B and
           John agrees.

                4. HRG reviewers can support the appeal of the four
           stations in Attachment C.  However, we believe that opening
           a Nov/Dec 1963 window for Oswald related documents might be
           a better approach.  We are concerned that the State
           Department has not been part of the discussion--the impact
           I land foreign relations of acknowledging stations.
           Although the DO is appealing the release of these four
           stations, it has agreed to acknowledge all of the South and
           Central American stations plus London,.Paris, Ottawa, Bonn
           and thA German hses.  I raised the State issue with OGC
           0               1She   agreed on the need to include State
           in the discussion; once the decision is made to appeal, she
           will contact her counterpart at State.  I have not had an
           opportunity to discuss the State issue with John.
