SUBJECT: a. Irving Davidson
1. AL 1000 hours on 31 July 1974, in compliance with instructions
from Mr. Halpern, I mat with Ni.l Ainsley, Chief, Covert Procurement/OL,
relative to the Davidson matter. Ainsley read the ashington FO memo
regarding the subject and then called Billy Iargaa and asked him to
join us. Iorgau as Ciief, Operationa Support Branch, Supply Divisioa/OL,
has the direct responsibility of fning for, rs 'eiving, and storing
items of the type that Davidson is seeking to peddle. After t*rgan
read the 1Washington oemo, a long discussion ensued from which the
following points emerged:

a. Per instructions from Mr. Colby, the CIA is
currently engaged in a dialogue with the DoD to
determine the mutual responsibilities of the CIA and
the DoD in future paramilitary operations. One of the
sost important aspects of this matter is logistical
support. Although this has not yet been settled, the
assumption is that the CIA will continue to bear the
.    major responsibility for procuring Soviet, Bloc, and
PlC arss and emo to support paramilitary ops. This
has never been a mission of the three military services
and they have no capability for this type of acquisition.
(The pri cpal CIA rep in these discussions with the
- oD is             Deputy Chief, SOG.)

b. The CIA inventory of 7.62 Soviet
been seriously depleted in the past year
several sonths, Ainsley has been seeking
up to 4 mllin  rounds through different
without success. Each attempt to secure
some security risk.
