Memorandum
TO    : Mr. C. D. DeLoach               DATE: 3/6/70
FROM    W. C. Sullivan
SUBJECT: RELATIONSHIPS WITH CENTRAL           Ig5
INTELLIGENCE AGENCY (CIA)
CIA REQUEST FOR BUREAU LECTURE
ON COMMUNISM IN THE U, S.
Item Number 15 in the material submitted to the Director
by SA Sam Papich in his memorandum 3/5/70 discusses the Director's
refusal of a 1958 CIA request for~ j4/16            to lecture
on communism before a CIA group. Papich stated that CIA accepted
this as an affront and a blatant refusal to cooperate on a most
important subject of interest to both agencies.
The files disclose that by letter.9/25/58 signed by
AArM     , CIA requested  /A M5     to address a selected
group of CIA personnel on the communist movement in the U. S.
CIA suggested dates of 12/9,10,or 11/58. The Director by routing
slip attached to MAIM       letter commented, It seems strange
that CIA should seek this when its top representative in Japan
considers FBI as a bunch of mere 'flat-feet' and the dangers
of communism as something conjured up in the minds of the FBI.
But then again I note request doesn't come from the Director
nor even the Deputy Director of CIA.
Memorandum     A-Mi     to A'4        dated 10/1/58
made reference 'to CIA's request arfd the Director's comments. It
recommended that the best interests of the Bureau would be served
by giving this lecture, not because of the information which
could be conveyed to CIA on communism in the U. S., but because
it would give AM d    an opportunity to raise a number of
questions himself of the group concerning CIA's own activities
in the field of communism. It was pointed out that it could be
considered a bit of a challenge to see how much the FBI could
learn about the operation of CIA during the course of the lecture
and discussion rather than the converse. MA*4i,     recommended
that the request be declined and the Director concurred commenting,
We cannot make   AM6   available to this outfit,
NATIONAL SECURITY INFORMATION
Unauthorized Disclosure
Subject to Criminal Sanctions.
