1.   Recently District Attorney James C. GARRISON has made

more vehement after newspaper and magazine articles attacking the
GARRISON probe had been printed by The Saturday Evening Post,
Newsweek and (on 21 May 1967) the New York Times.
2.   The following are the major accusations.made by GARRISON
-  ---since 8 May 1967, the date of reference:
a.   CIA and the FBI cooperated in concealing facts
behind the assassination of President John F. Kennedy from both
te arren Commission and the American public.  CIA knew
all along that the Warren Commission's report-was completely
untrue in its conclusion that Kennedy was shot by Lee Harvey
Oswald acting alone.' The GARRISON investigation has tarned
up mounting evidence of CIA involvement in Kennedy's death.
GARRISON asserted that CIA duped the Commission by flooding
its members with a gush of irrelevant information to obscure the
truth.  (The Washington Star, 8 May 1967. )
b.    GARRISON intended to ask the U.S. Senate to investi-
gate the alleged Central Intelligence Agency 'coverup'.
GARRISON is a personal friend of Senator Russell Long of Louisiana
(Washington Post and Times Herald, 9 May 1967.)
c.   GARRISON has told the New Orleans States-Item
that Oswald was probably a CIA agent who worked undercover
with anti-Castro Cubans while publicly demonstrating for Castro.
The . . . CIA and the FBI were aware of Oswald's connections
