                                            .Wshingon. D. C 20505



                                                       25 August 1978





                Honorable  Louis Stokes, Chairman
                Select Committee  on Assassinations
                House  of Representatives
                Washington,  D.C.  20515

                Dear  Mr. Chairman:

                     Subsequent to our telephone conversation on 16 August, at
                which time you informed me  that subpoenas had been voted by the
                Committee  for four items 'of information, the matter has been the
                subject of exchanges between your representatives and mine. I
                assume  that your staff has now made you aware that one of the items
                had been reviewed by one of your staff representatives the morning
                of the day before you told me the subpoena was voted. Another was
                for a memorandum   that cannot be located, apparently missing from
                a file that previously had been reviewed by your representatives. I
                assume  these do not pose a question. The other two items, the subject
                of this letter, appear to have developed into a different problem.

                     One  of these two remaining items eals with a history of the
                Mexico  City Station, covering the period 1947 to 19699 That history
                contains only a few pages of reference to the short visit of Lee Harvey
                Oswald  to Mexico City, and to related subsequent events. These
                pertinent pages have been reviewed by your representatives. Other
                than these few references the balance of the history deals with 2z
                operational and management  developments   er a 22 year period-
                subject matter not related in any way to the objectives of your inquiry.
                In its entirety it constitutes a highly sensitive collection of operational
                and organizational information, involving intelligence sources and
                methods,  that should receive the most restricted handling.
