                                                          30 October  1975



                 MEMORANDUM FOR THE RECORD

                 SUBJECT:  Chief, CI Meeting with Mr. Paul Wallach, Chief
                           Counsel of Senate Select Committee on  Intel-
                           ligence


                      This meeting occurred on Wednesday, 29 October  1975
                 as a result of concern on the part of Senate Select
                 Committee officers that the Agency was not forthcoming
                 with file material related to the Lee Harvey Oswald case,
                 i.e., the assassination of President Kennedy.  The
                 following points were made by the principals as indicated.

                 Chief, CI - To open the meeting Mr. Kalaris made it clear
                 that the Agency is anxious to demonstrate that we have
                 nothing to hide and that all pertinent material was made
                 available to the Warren Commission.  He added that the
                 procedure for making material available to the.Senate
                 Staff posed certain problems with regard to sources,
                 methods and liaison, which were delaying the turnover of
                 material.  He then presented several examples of the
                 sanitization process in which cables taken directly from
                 the 201 file were-edited so that all evidence of source,
                 method and liaison information was removed.

                 Chief Counsel - As an opening reply Mr. Wallach stated
                 that his position was that he considered that the Senate
                 Committee should have the same access as the Rockefeller
                 Commission.  He added that in his discussions with several
                 senators on his committee they had mentioned reports that
                 a Rockefeller reviewing official by the name of Belin who
                 had had access to the original file,had appeared on several
                 talk shows and was going to write a book based on his
                 review of Agency holdings on the Oswald case.

                 Chief, CI - Mr. Kalaris then pointed out that there were
                 certain particularly sensitive aspects of the material
                 which could not be released for use outside of the building.
