[22]MEMORANDUM FOR: General Counsel
[24]SUBJECT : Declassification of Warren Commission
[25]Documents
[27]1. In accordance with existing arrangements, we
[28]have been asked by the National Archives to review four
[29]Warren Commission documents for possible declassification.
[30]One of the documents is classified in its entirety,
[31]whereas only certain segments of the others remain in
[32]classified status. Copies of the affected materials
[33]are attached. —~
[35]2. We see no reason to continue the restriction
[36]on document B. Similarly, document A would normally
[37]require no further withholding from the public domain,
[38]but we. checked with Mr. David Murphy, an:. Agency official
[39]under (Department of State cover, and he requested that
[40]his true affiliatiom*not be revealed at this time. He 3>
[42]is still under cever and wncoordinated revelation of his
[44]true status could become an embarrassment to the(Department, |
[46]3. Documents C and D would go beyond what we want
[47]to release now about our dealings with defectors and the
[48]determination of their legitimacy.
[50]4. A suggested reply to National Archives is
[51]attached. We recommend your signature.
