                and OLC 78-1454/1).  The HSCA has requested access to all
                files and index references concerning eight individuals,
                including two former staff employees of this Agency.  The
                Committee has also asked a number of questions regarding
                E. Howard Hunt, criteria governing the opening of a 201 file
                during the years 1958-64, Lee Harvey Oswald and his 201

                Millan, identities of all Soviet Russia Divisio  case offiars,
                chiefs and deputy chiefs of station assigned to

                during the years 1958-63.

                         (C) Your Office was telephonically advised on
               14 April  1978 that the Office -of Security had material
               available  for review regarding Abram Chayes (second 5 April
               inquiry--priority  handling requested) but had no record or
               could not positively  identify Monica Kramer, Loring Marie
               Loretta Hyde,  and Rita Naman.  Overt source material (a
               newspaper clipping) was  located, however, that indicated
               that Loring Hyde might  be Lorena Hyde, aka:  Lorena Estlow.
               According to  an article appearing in the Columbus, Ohio,
               Sunday Dispatch on  1 December 1963, Lorena Estlow was the
               wife of Dr. Carl  D. Hyde, older brother of Ruth Hyde Paine,
               friend of Marina  Oswald. A  search of records of the Office
               of Security.in the names  Lorena Hyde and Lorena Estlow
               disclosed some limited  and dated (1949) information on a
               Lorena Estlow.  She was  described as one of a number of
               participants  from 15 states who came to Washington, D.C., in
               the summer of 1949  to attend the Interracial Workshop.
