                     Dear


                                Yourl              ttin  has sought my  views
                     on the possibility of declassifying a Warren Commission
                     document  in which reference  is made  to the.V
                                         The  document  in question is CD  927j
                    dit~ed22nd   May,  1963q together with an attachment dated
                    ~29th~iN vembr-,_l1963.

                                I would recommend   strongly that C9D  and
                     its attachment should not on any account be declassified or
                     publicly released for reasons which  include the following

                           )    It has never been officially stated that there
                                is a C.I.A.  I         Station or that
                                there are C.I.A.  officers in
                                This has  been avoided as a  point of policy.

                         00     Publication of these facts would invoke a
                                spate of quetions b- the Prcos  and  in,
                                            which  would be  contrary to the
                               national security interest, for example

                               (a)  Who  approved the establishment of
                                    the C.I.A.            Station

                               (b) What  is its composition, and location?

                               (c) What  is its purpose in
                                    (Allegations. have already been made
                                    that C.I.A.  is interfering in
                                           domestic affairs.)

                               (d) With what             agencies does it
                                   deal?
                                                which  has not been
                                    publicly disclosed, could be brought
                                    into discussion.)

                               (e) With what other foreign agencies does  the
                                              deal?

                               f)  What            control is there over
                                   such dealings?
