[1113]Tt is ay view shot the Bureau's practice of passing along
[1114]to the various Government departments and agencies information
[1115]which comes to lts attention in connection with the conduct of
[1116]investigations normally and regularly within the Bureau's juris-
[1117]diction is entirely sporopriate and correct. Indeei, i+ would
[1118]appear that the Bureau would be remiss in its duty if it falled
[1119]to pess along information coming to it which might prove to be
[1120]in the interest of the general welfare, It is not the Bureau's
[1121]resvonsibility to determine whether the information is or is not
[1122]of importance to the particular agency in the carrying out of its
[1123]current activities and responsidilitiss and whether or not any
[1124]action is taken by the department or agency is not, of course, a
[1125]principal concern of the Bureau. *
[1126]7 I believe, therefore, that the Bureau should continue its
[1127]practice of passing along information which it is believed. might
[1128]be of interest to the various departments and agencies, At the
[1129]game time I believe that it would be annropriate either (a) to

[1178]Federal Commmicetions Commission , :
[1179]Washington, D. C.
[1181]Dear Mr. Walker;
[1183]Under date of November 18, 1947,-there appeared in the column of ,
[1184]Mr, Marquis Childs in the Washington Post the following statement attributed
[1185]to Mr. Clifford J. Durr of the Federal Communications Commission: "Already
[1186]the FBI is furnishing to the commission unsolicited rerorts on individuals
[1187]connected with- radio, and I can assure you that if you should be told the
[1188]kind of things contained in many of these reports you would dismiss the infor-
[1189]mation as baseless gossip."
[1191]“ The Federal Bureau of Investigation has referred to the Federal
[1192]Communications Commission from time to time information which it has received
[1193]in the course of its regular investigations which appeared pertinent or material *
[1194]to matters within the jurisdiction of the Commission. It is the policy and
[1195]practice of the Federal Bureau of Investigation to avoid any attempts to eval-
[1196]vate the simmificance of information relating ic matters without its juris-
[1197]“diction or the effect of such information upon the contemporary policies and
[1198]programs of other agencies. As a result, the Bureau furnishes tothe various
[1199]Government departments such information as it receives which appears pertinent
[1200]to’the operations of those Government departments, In so far as is practicable,
[1201]the Bureau attempts to evaluate the reliability of the source of this infor-
[1203]* mation. without’ attempting to maké ‘any suggestions as to the use: vhieh should -
[1204]“or should not be made of the information itself.
[1206]Mr. Childs, in his colwm quoting Mr. Durr's statement, adds the
[1207]following observation upon Mc. Durr's statement: "Note the word 'unsolicited',
[1208]| It indicates that the FBI initiated investigations and sought to influence “
[1209]FCC decisions by sending reports on certain individuals to the commission.
[1210]If this is hapvening, it is souething Congress should mow about,"
[1212]I desire to advise you that this Bureau has not at any time attempted
[1214]in any manner or degree to influence FCC decisions. The material which has
[1215]wah "been. transmitted to the. ;Commission | Was. sent, -20.Le ly fox the purpose of Jaffording..

[1235]In the light of the statements made by Mr. Durr.and since these

[1238]has been fwnishing to the Commission is not desired by jthe Commission. I

[3063]DEPARTMENTAL CIRCULAR NO. 709
[3064]TO HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS AND INDEPENDENT ESTABLISHMENTS : , «
[3066]SUBJECT: Designation of Officials to Whom Reports of Full Field Inves-
[3067]_ tigation Under Executive Order 10450 Should be Delivered
[3069]1. Forms requesting investigations under Executive Order 10450 should
[3070]bear the address of the Personnel Security Officer to whom the reports of
[3071]investigation should be sent. - Férms ‘for tiis purpose will be provided
[3072]with a space for the address of the Personnel Security Officer.
[3074]2. Reports of investigation will be forwarded to the Personnel Security
[3075]Officer except when a full field investigation is conducted by the Com-
[3076]mission or by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Commission will
[3077]deliver these reports of full field investigation to a designated official
[3078]in the central office of your department or agency. ’
[3080]53. In order that the reports may be delivered properly, please furnish
[3081]the Commission with the names and addresses of central-office officials
[3082]of your department or agency to whom reports of full field investigation
[3083]should be delivered. You should name one or more alternates to receive
[3084]these reports in the absence of the first official. These names should
[3086], be submitted to the Chief, Investigations Division, U. S. Civil Service
[3088]Commission, Washington 25, D. C., within ten days of receipt of this let~
[3091]4. Since some of the reports of full field investigation will contain
[3092]security information, you should show with respect to each official des-
[3093]ignated the highest category of classified security information he has
[3094]been cleared to receive. .
[3096]5. Inquiries concerning this circular may , be made by telephone to Code

[3127]¥ -rhis is with reference to your memoranda of May i dnjd
[3128]May 14, 1953, relating to the administration of Executive Order }j_
[3129]10450. .
[3131]1, Your opinion that there should be no abuse of the
[3132]privilege granted by section 3(b) of the order in filling sensitive
[3133]positions in emergency cases prior to the completion : of fu eit: ‘field
[3134]pre-appointment investigations is well taken, So, also, is¢your
[3136]| suggestion that the Civil Service Commission, in resgect to sec-
[3137]tion 3(a), should utilizé extreme care in permitting less than
[3138]the minimum investigation with respect to per diem, intermittent, -
[3139]temporary, or seasonable employees and aliens employed outside
[3140]the United States.
[3142]So
[3144]2. Lagree with your assumption that the coverage of «
[3145]‘the order is limited to the Executive Branch of the Government.
[3146]However, ido not believe it will be necessary to make snecific
[3147]provision in the regulations to that effect. Inasmuch as they
[3149], {are to be issued separately by and in the name of each executive
[3150]oes ‘\branch*departinént or agency, it will be’ made clear that they relate
[3151]-}only to the administration of the particular department or agency
[3152]concerned,
[3154]wes Sou Ase: ‘eae: i okeretse to "the #2083 inst. “Geaevain of ihe, :

[3157]prescriv ed by Executive Order 9833. I wnderviand this resulted,
[3159]: - not because that order was necessarily aprlicaple to those agencies,
[3160]but because they voluntarily adopted srocedures similar to those
[3162]; prescribed by the order. Executive Crder 10450 does not prevent
[3163]them from adocting a-similar policy in relation to it. The main
[3165]‘question is whether the appropriations of thé FEI are sufficient

[3193]conducting investigations abroad, the Departments of State.and Army
[3194]“Lavere requested’ by. Letter. dated June 3319537, to continue thevsame “ .”
[3195]‘““dbrangement “undér ‘Executive Order No? 10450 for investigations’ o
[3196]‘abroad as existed under Executive Crder No. 9835. The letter stated
[3197]‘that in the absence of any indication of disagreement with this plan,
[3199]it would be assumed that the existing arrangement would remain in
[3200]effect. To date no expressions of disagreement have come from
[3201]either Department.
[3203]4. In respect to the re-adjudication question arising
[3204]under section 4, lagree that the Bureau should conduct additional
[3205]investigations only when their purpose is to develop information
[3206]of the type described in section 8{d). However, I believe the
[3207]Civil Service Commission, rather than this Department, should
[3208]issue direct instructions to all departments and agencies as to proper
[3209].| procedures in connection with requests for investigation. I would
[3210]v ‘| accordingly recommend that you work out a plan with the Civil Service
[3211]( Cornmission to so advise the interested departments and agencies.
[3214]5. As you point out, the last sentence of section 9(k)
[3215]of the sample security regulations is subject to sossible interpre-
[3216]tation requiring the em sloyee to be given a copy of the investigative
[3217]. reports in connection with his case. In order to sreclude this
[3218]>, possibility, an appropriate amendment has been transmitted to
[3219],jall departments, and agencies... Many.of them have:also’been .--+ |
[3220]"informally ‘advised of the matter. In addition, since they are
[3221]supposed to submit their regulations to this Department before
[3222]issuance, proper precautions will be jasen at that time. .

[3235]7. You note that the sample security regulations do not
[3236]state whether the hearings are to be open or closed and that under
[3237]Executive Order 9835 the Loyalty Review Board issued a directive to
[3238]all departments and agencies requiring hearings under that order to

[3280]Agents to testify at the hearings only "where they are in a position ,
[3281]to furnish competent evidence, " to be sound and suggest that you
[3282]undertake through the Civil Service Commission to advise the agencies
[3284]- concerned that this policy will be continued,
[3288]10. Serious consideration has been given to your suggestion
[3289]that dismissals without prejudice to applicants in cases before the
[3290]Regional Loyalty Boards may effect the Civil Service Commission's
[3291]register of eligibles. The Commission has already advised that it
[3292]believes that, under the basic Civil Service Act, it can establish
[3293]criteria with respect to the register of eligibles similar to those
[3294]set out in the order. The Department has advised the Commission
[3296]- that the order does not preclude it from so acting under the authority
[3297]jor the Civil Service Act if it is satsified as to the existence of
[3298]such authority.

[3321]the Bureau, on receipt of information of a nature necessitating
[3322]investigation by it, intends to foliow the colicy of immediately
[3323]initiating the investigation rather than awaiting a request from
[3324]the department or agency concerned, but notifying the head of the
[3325]department or agency that information of a nature requiring investi-

[4833]view of the involvement of my staff in these matters, I will
[4834]undertake to answer your questions with the concurrence of the
[4835]Criminal Division.
[4837]As you know this matter has been under continuing’review
[4838]both in the Task Force, chaired by a representative of this
[4839]office, of working level representatives of various agencies
[4840]in the security field and is now under study to a lesser degree

[4851]to identity ‘and detérmine ‘the’ dotivities of “organizations now'~
[4852]described in the amended Section 8(a)(5) of Executive Order

[4854]tiating investigations of individuals under the captioned matter
[4855]pursuant to Executive Order 10450 and specifically, criteria to

[4863]Under the amendment to Section 8(a)(5) of Executive Order

[4866]_ of. force | or violence. to prevent | others from exercising their

[4877]any State, (2) ox which seek to overthrow the dovernnent of F
[4879]the United States, or any y State or subdivision thereof, by '
[4880]unlawful means. (Emphasis added). _ Le i
[4882]Of course, the key words which are underlined indicate
[4883]that the investigation should be initially based on a possible
[4884]violation of a federal (such as the Smith Act) or state statute
[4885]prohibiting unlawful advocacy or the commission of any unlawful
[4886]act of force.or violence. However, in order for the Bureau ‘co
[4887]detect organizations with a potential’ of. the above-nature, it
[4888]is important that the investigation proceed on the basis of in-
[4889]formation indicating that the organization may be of the nature
[4890]mentioned. It is not necessary that a crime occur before the
[4891]investigation is initiated, but only that a reasonable evaluation
[4892]of the available information suggests that the activities of the
[4893]organization may fall within the proscription of the Order. The
[4894]most recent example of the type of organization, that you have
[4895]advised is becoming more prevalent, is the small but dedicated
[4896]to violence, Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA). Organizations of
[4897]this nature would clearly fall within the Order and should be
[4898]investigated as soon as information is available indicating their
[4899]potentiality for violence and of course, if possible, prior to
[4900]the fulfillment of their purposes.
[4902]. It is true that Executive Order 11785 eliminated the prior
[4903]communist, totalitarian, fascist, and subversive characterizgations
[4904]and definitions, but there was no intention of restricting the
[4905]investigations of such organizations if their programs call for
[4906]acts of force or violence or the unlawful advocacy of the com~
[4908]‘mission of acts of force or violence in furtherance of these
[4910]' programs. .
[4912]It is not possible to set definite parameters covering the
[4914]‘initiation of investigations of potential organizations falling
[4915]within the Order but once the investigation reaches a stage that
[4916]offers a basis for determining that the activities are legal in
[4917]nature, then the investigation should cease, but if the investi-~
[4918]gation suggests a determination that the organization is engaged
[4919]in illegal activities or potentially illegal activities it should
[4921]’ eontinue.
[4923]It follows in answer to your sécond question that individ-
[4924]uals' who are active either as members of or as affiliates of

[4939]organizations described above should be investigated when
[4940]information is received indicating their involvement. The
[4941]same yardstick indicated above for organizations in deter-
[4942]mining Whether the investigation should continue, should apply
[4944]- concerning individuals and when a determination can reasonably
[4946]be made that the individuals activities, eith within the
[4948]‘ organization or as an individual, do not appear to be in vio-
[4950]Lation of any law, then the investigation should cease.

[5415]. Department added, however, that “when a determination can

[6150]Dear Mike:
[6152]On February 23, 24, and March 3, 1976, Mr. William
[6154]Cregar of the FBI reviewed the Select Committee's draft
[6156]report entitled "National, Security, Civil Liberties, and
[6158]the Collection of Intélligerice: A Report on the Huston Plan"
[6159]‘.. for security problems. Loch Johnson, of the Committee staff,
[6161]revised the draft to meet all security problems which were
[6163]raised and discussed the revisions with Mr. Cregar to make
[6165]certain that their concerns were met.
[6167]This letter is intended to confirm the fact that, un-
[6168]less I receive word to the contrary from you, the Department
[6169]of Justice has no objection, on security grounds, to the
[6170]publication of this report. .

[6216]Attached is a letter dated 3/5/76 addressed to
[6217]Michael E. Shaheen, Jr., Esquire, Office of Professional
[6218]Responsibility, U.S. Department of Justice, from
[6219]Frederick A. O. Schwarz, Jr., Chief Counsel of captioned
[6220]Committee, confirming the fact that the FBI has reviewed
[6221]the captioned Committee's draft report titled "CIA and FBI
[6222]Mail Opening." The FBI's review, according to this letter,
[6223]was to insure the draft report met all security problems.
[6224]It is noted that the FBI's review of this report is not for
[6225]purposes of accuracy but rather to insure that there are n
[6226]problems relating to classification of material or simila
[6227]problems.
[6229]RECOMMENDATION :
[6230]That the Intelligence Division review attached letter
[6231]to determine if it accurately reports our review of the report
[6233]in question and whether there may be additional changes desired
[6234]in-the draft report. \ Som Tolmer ae atbe op

[6300]Dear Mike:
[6302]On March 4, 1976, Mr. James Johnson of the FBI re-
[6303]viewed the Select Committee's draft titled "CIA and FBI
[6304]Mail Opening." James Dick and Thomas Dawson of the Com-
[6305]mittee staff revised the draft to meet all security
[6306]problems previously raised by Mr. James Lee of the Bureau,
[6307]and discussed the revisions with Mr. Johnson to make cer-
[6308]tain that their concerns were met. .
[6310]This letter is to confirm the fact that, unless I
[6311]receive word to the contrary from you, the Department of
[6312]Justice has no objection to the publication of this report.
[6314]Thanks again for your help throughout the inquiry
[6315]into this subject.
[6317]Sincerely,
[6318]hay 0.2L vw

[8218]Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me regardin: 3% the work of the
[8219]Select Conmittee on Intelligence Activities. I am sorzy to learn thy
[8220]you are‘unable to endorse the Conmictee's investigation aad the effets
[8221]which have been undertaken to strengthen the Nation's intelligence agen-
[8223]cies through closer definitions of their legal authority ad areas of -
[8225]legitimate operation.
[8227]One of the possible abuses ander investigation is the violation of the
[8228]First and Fourth Amendment riehts of Americans under the Constiturion
[8230]and Bill of Rights . The Arerican system of goverment is unique in that
[8231]it not only pexmits, but encourages, its citizens to voice their views
[8233]oa importemt isSues. One of the rights we are, trying to protect is vour
[8234]right to express your thoughts to me, .either over the telephen2 or through
[8236]the mails, without having
[8238]x your message intercepted ‘ox’ recorded by umauthor-
[8240]ized persons. Highly sophisticated equipment now makes Lt possible to turn
[8241]our surveillance techniques, witch were origin salty y.designed te salercept
[8242]foreign transmissions, inward against owtelve Tt is important that*pre-
[8244]vision be made for the lawful use of this capability, and that protection
[8245]be assured our own. citizens who’ could becom the unwitting victims of this
[8246]uncon stitutional but never theless powerful surveillance technology.
[8248]I want to take this opportunity to assure. yoti that ‘the Committee" S purpose
[8249]is not, as some have suggested, to- destroy, ‘degrade, or even disrupt the
[8250]legitimate functions of the. intelligence gathering and law enforcement agen~
[8252]cies of the United States.
[8254]On‘the contrary, “its puxpose is to fortify these
[8256]valid and vital areas Of operation. -Towéver, we do intend to-identify abuses
[8257]or patterns of cbuses which aré.clearLy unlawful and take action to prevent
[8258]their recurrence, whether they involve individuals or nations. «We as indi~ |
[8259]viduals must Live within the law; so must our Government and its agencies.
[8261]I appreciate your taking the time to write to m, and trust that the

[8842]The New Mobilization Committee to End the War in
[8843]Vietnam (NHC) is sponsoring a massive antiwar manifestation
[8844]to take place in Washington, D. C,, on November 12-16, 1969.
[8845]The Student Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam
[8846](SMC) and the Vietnam Moratorium Committee (VMC) are closely
[8847]coordinating their efforts with NMC in organizing the ;
[8848]demonstration, NMC, SMC and VMC occupy adjoining office
[8849]Space at 1029 Vermont Avenue, Northwest, Washington, D. C.
[8851]SMC is completely dominated and controlled by the .
[8852]Trotskyist Socialist Workers Party’ (SWP) and its youth affiliate,
[8853]the Young Socialist Alliance (¥YSA). The VNC has recently
[8854]endorsed fully the activities of NMC concerning the upcoming
[8855]antiwar demonstration. ;
[8857]This demonstration could possibly attract the
[8858]largest number of demonstrators ever to assemble in
[8859]Washington, D, C., which is cause for major concern should
[8860]violence of any type break out. It is necessary for this
[8861]Bureau to keep abreast of events as they occur, and we feel
[8862]advance knowledge of plans and possible areas of confrontation
[8863]during the demonstration would be most advantageous to our
[8864]coverage and to the safety of individuals and property.
[8866]We have sevarately requested authorization to install
[8867]a telephone surveillance on the office of NMC. To further
[8868]implement our coverage, we are requesting authorization to
[8869]anstall telephone surveillances on the offices of SMC and VHC,

[9045]Hon. Frank Church
[9047]U.S. Senate
[9048]Washington, D.C.
[9050]Dear Sen. Church:
[9052]By way of background, I served honorably with both the Federal Bureay of Inv
[9053]igation and the Central Intelligence Agency for a combined total of ove 33
[9054]years. I am proud of my service with each agency and I feel thet my activities
[9055]were quite worthwhile and in the national interest. I am a graduate of George
[9056]Washington University Law School and a member of the bar. I am now retiréd.
[9058]As an interested and intellectually curious cktizen, I have been reading
[9059]accounts in the public press concerning the activities of the committee which
[9060]you happen to chair and of the House Committee which Rep. Otis Pike happens to
[9061]chair, both dealing with the U.S. investigative and intelligence programs.Brief~
[9062]ly stated, I am totally nauseated by the irresponsible way in which both of you
[9063]demand highly sensitive end classified data which seems to be publicized soon
[9064]after you get it. It is my opinion and that of many ffiends that your committe
[9065]are effectively destroying the credibility of these agencies and making impos-
[9066]sible their effective performance in the future.
[9068]Before going further, let me state that I do not condone irregularities, im-
[9070]but I do see the justification,in serious security or Mafia like criminal acti-
[9071]vities,for certain "extracurricular" activities to achieve needed ends and I
[9072]think that the Congress should quietly recognize such,with reasonable controls. |
[9073]You should be proud and complimentary,for instance in my opinion,sbout the
[9074]highly publicized and often misrepresented mail intercept program when you
[9076]stop to realize that it wes confined to mail to and from Russia and,insofér as
[9078]I read, the results were given appropriate safeguards.
[9080]I have no objection to having some type of scrutiny and supervision of these
[9081]agencies by some well qualified and impartial panel and I do not object to
[9082]having appropriate administrative action taken against offending employees and
[9083]officials,if their rights are protected. What I do strongly object to is the
[9084]pathetically inept and horrendously damaging procedures whereby your inquiries
[9085]on sensitive matters are regularly reported,sometimes incompletely and for
[9086]apparent political reasons, It just seems to me that someone connected with your
[9087]committees is afflicted with political "diarrhea of the mouth" which impels
[9088]them to babble without regard to common sense or the welfare of our intelligence
[9089]programs and, as I read the press, you two gentlemen both have this weakness,
[9091]I am sure that the intelligence organizations of all major nations make some
[9092]mistakes.But have you ever seen the British,the French,the Russians,the
[9093]Germans,the Israeli or the Japanese governments conduct such a "three ring
[9094]circus" on sensitive matters as you men are doing to your everlasting discredit?
[9095]I am sure also that we are the laughing stock of all the above enumerated
[9096]nations. What foreign official will entrust sensitive and confidential data to
[9097]U.S. intelligence agents in the foreseeable future when he knows that he may soo
[9098]see his data publicized because of some misguided Congressional activity? I very
[9099]Sincerely feel that strong administrative and/or criminal action should be taken
[9100]in any cases where either or both of your committees and/or their person
[9101]been the vehicle for embarrassing or damaging the U.S. by actions
[9102]in confidential data being reported.
[9104]In order that there be no misunderstanding,this letter represents a
[9105]more than my very sincere conviction of great personal contempt on ith
[9106]the way in which you and your committees have done a great disservice to the
[9108]United States by sadly mishandling your responsibilities to these agencies and
[9109]to our nation,
[9111]Sincerely,

[9446]SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES (ssc)
[9448]RE: REQUEST FOR MATERTAL RELATING TO ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE
[9451]NOTE:
[9453]The above agreement referred to in referenced
[9454]Department letter states that material in FBI files
[9455]relating to the "Kissinger-17" surveillance would be made
[9456]available for review to SSC personnel at FBIHQ. These
[9457]personnel may take such notes as deemed appropriate which
[9458]notes were to be left in secure location at FBIHQ during
[9459]the time the SSC study was in progress. When the study
[9460]was completed, the SSC was to prepare a summary of the
[9461]information considered appropriate for Committee use. The
[9462]summary would be checked to ensure the protection of
[9463]national security matters, protection of confidential
[9464]sources of information and observation of privacy consider-
[9465]ations, Thereafter, the approved summary would be
[9466]furnished to the Committee and Staff notes destroyed.
[9468]Mr. Dick on July 16 and 17, 1975, reviewed the material
[9469]relating to the "Kissinger-17"' and left his notes in
[9470]possession of Bureau personnel. On 2/17/76, Mr. Dick
[9471]requested permission to return to FBIHQ to review the
[9472]above notes and prepare his summary which he did on
[9473]2/18/76, The summary prepared by Mr. Dick can be placed
[9474]into two categories: (a) Political or personal information
[9475]obtained from the tesurs which was disseminated to
[9476]individuals at the White House and (b) a list of the
[9477]targets and the dates the coverage was in operation for
[9478]each target comprising the "Kissinger-17,'' Review of
[9480]this summary indicates that no confidential sources of
[9481]this Bureau are jeopardized, and there appears to be no
[9482]jeopardy to national security matters, Regarding the
[9483]latter, however, it is felt that the White House would be
[9484]in the best position to pass final judgement in this matter,
[9486]It is to be noted that the matter of tesur coverage
[9487]of some members of the "Kissinger-17" is currently in
[9488]litigation,

[10211]furnished to the U, &. Attorney, Denver, Colorado, by
[10212]the Denver FBI Office. There is no indication that the

[10215]6. Question: Why did FBI say in 1969 and 1970--
[10216]and continues ta say now-~that it conducted no
[10217]investigation of Rihats disappearance when 1t is known
[10218]that FBI agents taiked in 1969 and 1970 with friends of
[10219]Riha about his disappearance?
[10221]Answer: The FBI said in 21969 and 1970 and
[10222]continues to say now that it conducted no investization
[10223]of Riha’s disappearance because from the outset of his
[10224]disappearance to now, the FBI has never conducted any
[10225]investigation into the disappearance of Thomas Riha.

[10244]dissanearance of Thomas Niha, a currently missing
[10245]Assistant Professor of History at the University of

[10248]‘this statement was made to interviewees
[10249]because the Denver Office has recoived inquiries by

[10251]have beon specifically advised there ia no cvidence
[10252]relating to his disappcaranca showlng any violation of

[10255]The circumstances of his disappearance sugfest a missing
[10256]person situation and that investigation is being handled
[10257]by the Boulder Police Pepartment.
[10259]“Because of the close personal relationship
[10260]hotween Tannenbaum and Piha, it would be possible,

[10771]Colorado, Boulder, Colorado. He is currently employed as a plant :
[10772], engineer with the Martin-Marietta Cement Company in Lyons, Colorado.
[10774]According to CERVENY, he came to the United States on
[10776]November §, 1968, from Vienna, Austria, destined for the residence
[10777]of his uncle in Boulder, Colorado. He stated that upon arrival in
[10778]New York City, he spent several days at the residence of Mr. and :
[10779]Mrs. R. V¥. GROSSMAN in Brooklyn, New York, who are the aunt and ; ‘
[10780]uncle of HANA RIHA, the former wife of THOMAS RIHA. i
[10782]CERVENY continued that he arrived in Denver, Colorado, :
[10783]via Greyhound Bus on November 16, 1868. and immediately called -
[10784]THOMAS RIFA at his residence in Boulder He was advised by RIHA i
[10785]that he would be unable toe come t3 Denver to drive him back to
[10786]Boulder, but.that he would have a friend meet him at the pus
[10787]station. Hs stated that approximately one hour later a woman
[10788]who intrcduced herself as GALYA TANHENSAUM approached him at the .
[10789]bug eteticn and thereafter dreyea him to the residence of HCAS 7
[10791]_ RIHA at 1155 - 6th Strest, Houlder, Colorado. He edvised that
[10792]after TANNENBAUH departed tha RIHA residence, his uncle told ain
[10793]that she was a vary important persen, and the one who had bee ; .
[10794]influential in .getting him into the United States. :
[10798]CERVENY stated he resided with RIHA from November 18,
[10799]1968, until Jannary 8, 1969, when he moved to 818 South Logan
[10800]Street, Denver, Colorado, in order to be closer to the Samsonite
[10801]Company where he had secured employment in the Research and
[10802]Development Laboratory. During the period he resided with his
[10803]unele, TANNENBAUM visited this residence en several occasions,
[10804]and on almost every Imstance reminded him that che was an officer
[10805]in Military Intelligence; very influential with authorities of the
[10806]United States Immigration and Naturelisution Service; and that
[10807]if he did not behave himself in the Unitad States, she would have

[10841]he: did not seé TANNENBAUM again until March 13,°1969, when ‘she ‘*
[10842]Called him on the telephone and suggested he come to her residence
[10843]at 248 Logan Street, where his uncle was also visiting her. He
[10844]stated when he arrived at her house, his uncle seemed depressed
[10845]and upset over the fact that he was having marital difficulties
[10846]with HANA, and that the marriage would probably terminate in
[10847]divorce. He stated the purpose of his being invited to
[10848]TANNENBAUM's residence appeared to emanate from a desire of his
[10849]uncle to see him, but that nothing of importance occurred during
[10850]the visit.
[10852]Following the disappearance of his uncle on March 15,
[10853]1969, he stated TANNENBAUM commenced asking him over to her house
[10854]on the pretense of checking up on his immigrant status; however,
[10855]it became immediately apparent that the principal purpose of these
[10856]invitations was an attempt on the part of TANNENBAUM to have sexual
[10857]relations with him. He pointed out there were times when he
[10858]entered her residence when she would be partially unclothed, would
[10859]attempt to sit on his lap, sit close to him while watching tele-
[10860]vision, or would openly suggest that they go to her bedroom for
[10861]the purpose of having sexual intercourse. CERVENY stated TANNENBAUH
[10862]was physically repulsive to him, and that he would find an immediate
[10863]excuse to leave when she commenced making sexual advances to him.
[10865]During the period when he was visiting the TANNENBAUM
[10866]residence, CERVENY advised she suggested that she cdopt him, and
[10867]actually started adoption proceedings through an attorney in
[10868]Denver, STEPHEN L. R. MC NICHOLS, JR.; however, he stated he had
[10869]no desire whatsoever to go through with this, and told TANNENBAUM
[10870]so. He stated it was about this time that he began to suspect that
[10871]TANNENBAUM had no connection with Military Intelligence or had any
[10872]influence over his immigration status.
[10874]He stated that ‘in May, 1969, he desired to go to Toronto,
[10875]Canada, to ettent a wedding of some Czechoslovakian friends, and
[10876]he inquired of TANNENBAUM if such would be legal for him to do.
[10877]He stated she told him there was nothing for him to worry about;
[10878]however, she suggested he consult with Immigration authorities
[10879]in Denver regarding this trip. Accordirr to _CoMENY TANCENBAUM

[10913]a Czechoslovakian girl in Colorado Springs by the name of MICHEL
[10914]BDLIKOVA, who was working at the Broadmoor Hotel, and whom he
[10915]eventually introduced to TANNENBAUM. He stated that TANNENBAUM
[10916]immediately told the girl of her Military Intelligence and
[10917]Immigration connections,-and advised her that she cculd arrange
[10918]to get her a passport. to visit relatives in Czechoslovakia. He
[10919]stated that in October, 1969, BDLIKOVA told him that TANNENBAUM
[10920]. had recently approached her with a letter written in English
[10921]purportedly from THOMAS RIHA to CERVENY. He stated BDLIKOVA was
[10922]asked by TANNENBAUM to rewrite the letter in Czechoslovakian, and
[10923]that he eventually received this letter postmarked from somewhere
[10924]in Canada. He felt at the time he received the letter that it had
[10925]not been written by his uncle, and when he was advised by BDLIKOVA
[10926]that the letter was a hoax, he began to feel that TANNENBAUM was
[10927]a fraud and that his uncle's disappearance could have been for
[10928]reasons other than marital discord. He stated that immeidately
[10929]after being told of the letter by BDLIKOVA in October, 1969, he
[10930]filed a missing persons notice with the Boulder, Colorado Police
[10931]Department the following day. He stated the last time he saw
[10932]TANNENBAUM was just before or after he made this report to the
[10933]Boulder Police Department.
[10935]With regard to CERVENY's association with GALYA
[10936]TANNENBAUM, he recalled that on several oceasions she tou:d him
[10937]that she would like to recruit him into Military Intelligence, as
[10938]his engineering background and language ability would be "extremely
[10939]useful to us." She also told him that if he were in the United
[10940]States "working for the other side," she would shoot him. TANNEN-
[10941]BAUM also told CERVENY that she had originally met THOMAS RIHA in
[10942]Chicago, and that after she came to Colorado, he followed her for the
[10943]purpose of marrying her; however, the marriage did not take place
[10944]as RIHA was unable to get along with her children. He stated that
[10945]upon reflection, he feels that his uncle actually believed that
[10946]TANNENBAUM was connected in some official capacity with the United
[10947]States Government, and that there was something in their relation~-|
[10948]ship which he feels gave TANNENBAUM some type of influence over the
[10949]actions of his uncle; however, in conversation with berh hie cncle

[10976]| his father had previously corresponded with another indiyidual - -
[10978]“ by the name'of RIHA in San Antonio, Texas, who was no relation
[10980]to his uncle, but whom his father had known in Czechoslovakia.
[10981]| According to CERVENY, his father made a trip to San Antenio to
[10982]|. leave this bracelet with the RIHA in San Antonio for him to
[10983]|}. attempt to sell; however, the bracelet was eventually returned
[10984]|, ‘to CERVENY from the RIHA in San Antonio, who advised him he could
[10985]| loeate no buyer. Thereafter, he showed the bracelet to TANNEN~
[10986]BAUM, who indicated a desire to buy it. Both went to a jeweler
[10987]in the Denver Hilton Hotel, who appriased the bracelet at $350.
[10988]TANNENBAUM, however, offered him $500 for the bracelet, and
[10989]actually paid him $400 in cash with a promise to pay him an
[10990]additional $100 later, which he never received.
[10992]CERVENY recalled another incident which furthered
[10993]his suspicions of TANNENBAUM in regard to a will which he
[10994]witnessed at her insistence. By way of background, he explained
[10995]that in the spring of 1969, TANNENBAUM introduced him to an
[10996]elderly man by the name of GUSTAV FREDERICH INGWERSEN, a plastics
[10997]engineer and a native of Germany, who owned some type of plastics
[10998]Plant in Denver, Colorado. He stated he had formerly done some
[10999]work in plastics, and TANNENBAUM suggested that INGWERSEN might
[11000]help him get established in this field. As a result of this
[11001]meeting, CERVENY became friendly with INGWERSEN, and in the
[11002]company of TANNENBAUM and her two children, made two vacation
[11003]trips to New Mexico with him. He stated these trips were in
[11004]either April or May, 1969, and in June, 1969, TANNENBAUM advised
[11005]him that INGWERSEN had died. Then on July 5, 1969, TANNENBAUM
[11006]had him visit her residence where she told him that INGWERSEN
[11007]had drawn up a will and signed it prior to his death, but had
[11008]neglected to have two witnesses sign it in accordance with
[11009]Colorado law. She said that INGWERSEN liked CERVENY and had
[11010]intended to ask him to witness the will, but had died before this
[11011]eould be accomplished. She then coaxed him for over an hour to
[11012]witness this document, and still believing she was a bona fide
[11013]official in some Governmental capacity, he affixed 1 his signature
[11014]to the will.
[11016]CERVENY concluded by stating that TANNENBAUM hed never

[11165]held at the Black Bear Inn. She stated that while the reception
[11166]was in progress, TANNENBAUM appeared, uninvited, and immediately
[11167]sought out RIHA, took him to the bar section of the restaurant,
[11169]and commenced a long, serious cenversation with him which lasted
[11171]. for approximately one hour. She stated that RIHA'ts bride became
[11173]extremely upset over this, as TANNENBAUM would not allow enyone
[11174]to interrupt their conversation. Mrs. STEIN advised that on one
[11175]oceasion she went into the bar to tell RIHA that his bride was
[11176]becoming very upset, and was answered in an angry manner by
[11177]TANNENBAUM to “leave them alone." Following this conversation,
[11178]the content of which is unknown to Mrs. STEIN, she stated RIHA
[11179]appeared to be extremely upset, and although TANNENBAUM left
[11180]immediately, RIHA seemed to have lost all interest in the
[11181]reception.
[11183]Following the incident during the wedding reception,
[11184]Mrs. STEIN advised that TANNENBAUM again visited her at the
[11185]Black Bear Inn concerning the immigration case of ZDENEK CERVENY,
[11186]during which she mentioned to TANNENBAUM that she cwned some
[11187]property in Lyons on which she. desired to build an apartment
[11188]house. At this time TANNENBAUM told her that she was a Colonel
[11189]in Military Intelligence, and was soon to be promoted to the
[11190]rank of General. She told Mrs. STEIN that she could utilize
[11191]some influence in securing an FHA loan for her; that she had the
[11192]authority to deport her at any time; and intimated to Mrs. STEIN
[11193]that for a percentage of the loan obtained, she would obtain
[11194]same; and if Mrs. STEIN did not agree to this arangement, she wouid
[11195]have her deported. Mrs. STEIN again pointed out that she considered
[11196]TANNENBAUM a "nut," and told her thet all of immigration and
[11197]business dealings were handled through her attorney.
[11199]Mrs. STEIN stated that to the best of her recollection, -
[11200]the above was the last time she saw TANNENBAUM, and in February,
[11201]1969, she made a trip to Columbia, Scuth America , where she had
[11202]resided for approximately ten years before coming to the United
[11204]tates, and did not again return to Lyons until March 18, 1969,

[11261]RIHA never did mention anyone to her by the name of TANNENBAUM or
[11262]any individual connected with Military Intelligence or the United
[11263]States Immigration and Naturalization Service. She stated that
[11264]if TANNENBAUM had been a close friend of RIHA's, this. fact would
[11265]probably have been known to her, as she and RIHA generally asso-
[11266]ciated with the same circle of friends in the University community.

[11291]“ the Department of History and had dinner with him on two cr three ~
[11292]occasions. He advised their relationship was casual and could not
[11293]have been considered a profound relationship. : :
[11295]FISCHER~GALATI advised he first met GALYA TANNINGAUM
[11296]sometime in May, 1969, after the disappearance of rrofessor RIHA.
[11297]He advised his object in meeting TANNENBAUM was -to determine if she .
[11298]were a "colonel" as described in hearsay. He advised he was con~ - 4
[11299]vinced she was not connected with any kind of intelligence work ;
[11300]and knew nothing of Eastern Eurepean history. He recalled that
[11301]TANNENBAUM stated she had known RIHA for many years and indicated
[11305]- | she had helped RIHA come to the United States but gave no further _
[11306]explanation. He also recalled that TANNENBAUM displayed 2 “Power ae
[11308]-of Attorney" document which was contained in a letter allegedly
[11310]signed by TOM RIHA. He advised the most significant part of the
[11312]document to him was the date of same, which he easliy recalled as
[11314]January 5. 19368. FISCHER-GALATI pointed out that January &$, 1568,
[11316]is the date of the overthrow of the Czechoslovakian Governwent , at
[11318]which time NOYOTONY was replaced by DUBCEK, and at this same time
[11320]the official who was in control of passports disappeared an 2c - .
[11321]sequentiy showed up in Montreal, Canada. He recalled that TANHENBAUM
[11322]-indicated she carried a gun in her purse and that her cap “ha me ;
[11324]special equipment » but TANREN BAU Gig not elaborate further.
[11325]advised that TANNENBAUM was extremely careful ia her conversations
[11326]with him and made no allegations.
[11328]FISCHER-GALATI advised his second meeting with TANNEN BAM
[11329]occured on Octcber 1, 1969, at 2:15 p.m., same obtained Fron his
[11330]notebook. He vecalied that TANNENBAUM called him on tae telephone
[11332]and arpanged to meet him in front of the Colorado Book Store in ~
[11333]Boulder. He recalled that her car was parxed legaily at the -
[11335]aforementioned location. He recalled that sie was anxious to
[11336]determine why a check had “bounesd" in RIHA's bank acaount .« He

[11366]He recalled his third meeting with TANNENBAUM occured
[11367]about five days later at the same location, although this time
[11368]TANNENBAUM was accompanied by a small female child about three
[11369]years of age, He advised her of the amount the University had
[11370]deposited to RIHA's acccunt.. At this time TANNENBAUM told him
[11371]her real name was not GALY:1 TANNENBAUM, but something else which
[11372]she did not disclose, and added that she was about ready to leave
[11373]town. .He advised of no contact with TANNENBAUM since their last
[11374]meeting.
[11376]STEPHEN FISCHER-GALATI advised that the date of the
[11377]document mentioned above of January 5, 1968, and its historical
[11378]significance disturbs him. He stated if RIHA was not "bumped -
[11379]off" by TANNENBAUM, then he assumes that RIHA's disappearance
[11380]may have been connected with an unknown intelligence matter,
[11381]which is pure conjecture on his part. FISCHER~GALATI also recailed
[11382]that in September, 1968, Professor RIHA requested that an advertise-
[11383]ment for a travel bureau be run in the "Eastern European Quarterly,"
[11384]which GALATI described as an international journal to promote cul-~
[11385]tural contact with Eastern European Countries, He advised RIHA
[11386]did not indicate if the advertisement was run for a friend or if
[11387]RIHA had any financial interest in the travel agency named Treasure
[11388]Tours, 1010 St. Catherine Way, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. FISCHER-
[11389]GALATI advised that because of the reasons mentioned, he sometimes
[11390]believes that RIHA could be in Canada.
[11392]Professor FISCHER-~GALATI advised that in April, 1969.
[11393]he contacted a Mr. FRITZ of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA),
[11394]Denver, Colorado, regarding the sudden leaving of Professor THOMAS
[11395]RIHA of the University of Colorado. Hr. FRITZ advised him that he
[11396]had no knowledge of the matter but would check into same. Professon
[11397]FISCuER-GALATI stated he was later recontacted by FRITZ, who stated
[11398]the disappearance had nothing to do with the CIA and that RIHA's
[11399]leaving was a personal matter connected with personal problems.

[11413]“Vadded ‘that inasmuch ds-it’ then appeared to him that REHA -had left
[11414]voluntarily, he also concluded he hed no reason to fear for the
[11415]safety of RIHA. Professor FISCHER-GALATI said that if he had
[11416]been subsequentiy quoted in the "Colorado Daily" or any other
[11417]newspaper as saying that RIHA had left voluntarily and was safe,
[11418]Such quotation would have been correct.
[11420]Professor FISCHER-GALATI continued that he did not
[11421]feel, however, that the explanation about RIHA was adequate and
[11422]for that reason subsequently directed a letter to the Chief of
[11423]the Foreign Agents Registration section within the Justice Depart-
[11424]ment, whom he knew well. He thereafter received a reply that the
[11425]Chief to whom he directed the letter was deceased.
[11427]He stated he thereafter directed a second letter to
[11428]the same section mentioned above within the Justice Department in
[11429]mid-December, 1969, again inquiring about RIEA, but as yét has
[11430]received no reply.
[11432]He stated he did not know of anything of value ever
[11433]_ received by TANNENBAUM as a result of any representation.

[12225]interviews with FBI agents who wrote various mem-
[12226].oranda concerning the Black Panther Party in Chicago.
[12227]Because such interviews might impair the Department's
[12228]ability to conduct a defense in the Hampton trial, in
[12229]Chicago, I have asked the Department attorneys hand-
[12230]ling that case to give us their views on an appropriate
[12231]yesponse to Senator Church's letter. One possible re-
[12232]sponse would be to provide the SSC with the transcripts
[12233]of the FBI agents testimony at the trial eoncerning
[12234]these memoranda, instead of allewing the SSC to inter-
[12235]view these agents. We would appreciate it -if the FBI

[12942]It was brought to the attention of the Legal Counsel
[12943]Division that in the Senate Select Committee report concerning
[12944]COINTELPRO the identities of Agents were contained which are
[12946]below the level of Section Chief. The prior procedure
[12948]and policy.
[12950]of the Senate Select Committee was not to include anybody below
[12951]a policymaking position which it equated with Section Chief or
[12953]above.
[12955]f
[12958]F. A. O. Schwartz, Counsel to captioned Committee, was
[12959]contacted concerning this matter and Schwartz stated that he
[12960]wanted to assure the Bureau that there would be no names of Agent
[12961]personnel included in the report under the title of Section Chief.
[12962]He indicated that their procedures and policies concerning utili-
[12963]zation of the idéntity of Agent personnel will be consistent, with
[12964]the policies established by their Bureau mail opening report. This
[12965]report was written by James Dick of the Committee and contains the
[12966]identity of only one Section Chief and that is William A. Branigan.
[12968]No one below the rank of Section Chief was identified.
[12969]Dick did not identify SACs Wye yo" in this operation.

[13092]NOTE:
[13094]This is the first instance wherein the SSC has
[13095]made available for review a proposed rough draft of a seg-
[13096]ment of the upcoming SSC report. It is expected that other
[13097]segments will be made available by the Committee Staff
[13098]Members. It was necessary to review this proposed draft
[13099]in the offices of the SSC since they do not contemplate
[13100]permitting proposed drafts to leave their premises. The
[13101]approval for the use of information from the 2 classified
[13102]documents has been coordinated with the IS-2 Section of
[13103]the Intelligence Division and with the Budget and Accounting
[13104]Section of the Administrative Division. The handling of
[13106]the budget figure as set forth has been approved by Asst.
[13107]Director E.W. Walsh. ,

[13418]on coverage by thirteen informants and confidential sources--described
[13419]in complete detail a "public hearing on Vietnam." A Communist Party
[13420]official had “urged all CP members" in the area to attend, and one
[13422]of the organizers was alleged to have been’ a Communist in the early
[13423]1950's. Upon receipt from an informant of a list of the speakers,
[13425]the FBI culled its files for data on their backgrounds. One was
[13427]described by a source as a Young Socialist Alliance "sympathizer."

[13941]r This informative memorandum to advise of status ~
[13942]of Lepartmental review of FBI files concerning Martin Luther
[13943]Ring. Jr., amd related matters.
[13945]You will recall that, commencing 12/6/75,
[13946]personnel of the Civil Rights Division reviewed portions
[13947]of our files concerning King and related matters. Thea
[13948]lpat date such review was conducted in 1975 was on 12/19/75.
[13949]On 2/9/76, Criminal Section Chief Robert A. Murphy resumed
[13950]review of the King File. He worked on this for less than
[13951]four hours on that day and was to return the morning of
[13952]2/10/76 but had not returned as of the dictation of this
[13953]memorandum at 3:00 p.m., 2/10/76.
[13955]OBRGANAL FILED IM y,
[13957]Murphy had been reviewing the King file to the
[13959]exclusion of other files of interest. The King file is
[13960]64 sections in size and, as of 2/9/76, only about 25 sections
[13961]had been reviewed. On that date, Murphy told Supervisor
[13962]J. fT. aldhizer that, when he resumed the review the next
[13964]» he wanted to start with the portion of the file
[13965]commencing 1/1/68. This would be Section 77, and thus
[13966]Murphy would be skipping approximately 50 sections °F a
[13967]little over half of the file.
