RE: SENSTUDY
The following are comments prepared by the Radio

excerpted pages from a
report written by the Central Intelligence
Agency. Comments are keyed to page numbers which appear in
the lower right-hand corner of each sheet.
I. Page 0O112
Paragraph b. refers to FBI purchases of television
equipment and is accurate as to equipment obtained. According to
Bureau records, Purchase Order #21l00 was issued to CIA on
4/11/73 and was amended 9/24/73. The items were 1 each WTC-20
S18, 300 and 1 each WTC-23 @ $18, 600. Purchase Order 421469
dated 5/1/73 was issued to CIA for 2 each lens systems totaling $1l,200_
No damage would be suffered by release of this information:
2. Page 00118
Item 9 lists 50 "Actuators, Recorders. M This entry is
partially correct:
Bureau records show that Purchase Order #8989 was
issued to CIA on 11/17 /71 for 30 each QTC-lls at $488. 25, and 20 each
QTC-1ZAs at $236. 25.
damage would be suffered by release 0f this information:
Item Il lists 1 "Camera, Video_ MI This entry could refer to
that transaction detailed in Purchase Order #18301 issued to CIA on
11/27/72 for 1 each WTC-20 camera in the amount of $18, 400_ Tubes
installed in these cameras were Of the type mentioned under Item 12
and 13 below.

Purchase Order 416555 was issued to CIA on 9/21/72 in the
amount of 84,639. The video tube was for use in a closed circuit
television camera.
Item 13 lists 2 "Tube, Image, WL 30691" as having been
furnished the FBI on 3/26/71 at a cost of $4,607 each: This entry
is probably a duplication of Item 4 on page 0019_ Bureau records
show that Purchase Order #5450 dated 5/21/71 was issued to CIA
for this equipment for use in CCTV cameras_ No purchase order
to support two such acquisitions (March and May) could be located
Item 14 lists 2 "Cameras, Television" at.a unit cost of
818 , 300. This entry probably refers to that equipment acquired under
Purchase Order #21100 and is detailed in Paragraph b. page 00112, above.
No damage would be suffered by release of this information:
3. Page 00119
Item 2 lists 25 "Actuators, Recorders. IT The entry is
accurate.
Purchase Order #17204 was issued to CIA on 10/18/72 for 25
each QTC-lls @ $591. 94. This equipment is identical to that obtained on
Purchase Order #8989 mentioned above.
Item 3 lists "Tube, Image, Burn-Resistance" etc.

and is a
duplication of Item 12 on page 00118. Note identical dates.
Item 4 lists "Tube, Image, WL 30691" and is believed to refer
to the transaction carried as Item 13 on page 00118.
Items 5, 6, and 7 list "Transmitters, Module, Plug-In,
and Power Supply UWP-39A_ I These entries are essentially accurate.
Purchase Order #4203 was issued to CIA on 4/6[71 for
2 each transmitters SRT-67 @ $1372. 35; 1 each transmitter QRT-IOA
3160. 33; 1 each module QWT-18 81247 . 40; and, 1 each power

Item (A) is believed to be accurate and in the absence of
additional detail no serious damage would be suffered by release of
this information:
Item (B) is accurate and as long a8 target iS not specifically
identified no serious damage should be incurred. It should be recognized,
however , that although the concept of intercepting cryptographic
machine emanations would come a8 no surprise to those familiar with
intelligence work, confirmation 0f a functioning system could encourage
implementation of countermeasures which would deprive the U.S. of
invaluable information_
Item (C) is accurate except that the equipment has not been
operated for some time Without specific identification no serious
damage would result from disclosure of this information:
Item (D) is inaccurate to the extent that it states that
"installation is not fully operational because the full complement
of personnel have not arrived. MI Aside from that,disclosure
of information could lead the knowledgeable foreign government to be
certain of Bureau's participation and take whatever diplomatic steps
they felt necessary Decision to withhold is an operational/political
one rather than one which would affect technical capabilities and, therefore,
the Laboratory is making no recommendations in this regard:
5. Page 00222
Item (E) is accurate and entirely too revealing: If there
is any way this tem can be deleted from material to be given to
anyone outside the intelligence community, it should be done As #
written, it suggests & concerted effort toward a penetration to be
attempted in the future_ Disclosure of this information could easily
negate millions of dollars already spent and literally years of work
already performed the largest single project ever undertaken by
this Bureau. In view of our responsibilities in the counter-intelligence
field, the FBI, as well as the intelligence community, and perhaps the
free world a8 well, would suffer incalculable harm from release of this
information: It would also be appropriate for the Intelligence Division
to comment on this item_

Item (F) is accurate and, although its disclosure is
confirmatory no serious technical damage would result from its
disclosure_ To our knowledge, there has been no diplomatic
protest, disclosure could precipitate such protest. Intelligence
Division may wish to comment regarding this possibility.
Item (G) asserts that in one case it is known that CIA
M equipment was used against a "domestic target. This is insufficient
information to identify this matter.

ARABIC LINGUISTS
(Item 6, pgs. 182 & 202)
With regard to press allegations concerning the use
of polygraph
1
it was noted that during 1971 the President
was alleged to be furious with unauthorized disclosure of
classified information relative to the SALT Talks as disclosed
in the New York Times The President directed a sweeping
investigation to determine the source of the disclosure and
this was conducted under the direction of Mr _ Egil Krogh and
others Of the White House Staff_
A subsequent article in the Washington Post dated
September 3 , 1971 stated that a State Department spokesman
had acknowledged at a news briefing that agents of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation had polygraphed State Department
employees suspected of leaking information on the SALT Talks
in This statement is not accurate and the Director of
the FBI (J_ Edgar Hoover) denied this allegation in a letter
to the Washington Post and said that the polygraph examinations
had been conducted by another agency .
As noted in the CIA notes in fact, it was CIA that
conducted the polygraph examination in conjunction with the
State Department and the FBI was not involved in any way in
these polygraph examinations It is recalled that FBI
officials had been called to a White House meeting headed
by Mr _ Krogh in which it was indicated we might have to
conduct some polygraph examinations and were So alerted_ A
subsequent call from the White House to the FBI instructed
that the FBI polygraph examinations woula not be required_
In view of above
1
it does not appear the FBI would
incur any damage to its reputation or recognized use of the
polygraph in carefully selected criminal and security matters
in which we have jurisdiction

In regard to the CIA notes concerning the subject
of the 'lending of Arabic linguists to the FBI, the following
is noted:
The FBI' s linguistic capacity is limited to those
foreign languages in which translators can be fully utilized
on a' full-time basis_ When we need translations of foreign
language material beyond our normal translation capacity,
We turn to the governmental linguistic community for
assistance" Such help has been obtained in the past from
such agencies as the Library of Congress , Voice of America ,
Foreign Service Institute, Defense Language Institute,
CIA
1
NSA _ Bureau of Indian Affairs , U_ S _ Information
Agency and Smithsonian Institution On occasions, we
have also turned to private citizens for in very
unique situations involving exotic or rare languages
The massacre of the' Israeli athletes in Munich
at the 1972 Summer Olympics and other Arab terrorist
acts fomented a situation involving the national security
of the United States The FBI needed immediate assistance
in the Arabic language field. A program was immediately
instituted to hire our own Arabic translators and in the
interim period
I
CIA lent to our Washington Field Office the
necessary Arabic translators to fulfill our responsibilities _
The opening of the People 's Republic of China
Liaison Office in WaShington also created a need in the
Washington Field Office for Chinese translators with
special talents _ Two such translators were borrowed from
CIA and one of then became an FBI employee for a short
time following his retirement from CIA
All arrangements for the loan of Arabic and Chinese
linguists from CIA were effected the Intelligence Division and
the Washington Field Office through their liaison with CIA, and
the FBI Laboratory was not directly involved .
In summary , the CIA notes are accurate_ It is
not believed
1
however , that the FBI would incur any
embarrassment or damages as a result of this interagency
cooperation_

The Tessina camera is a small, sophisticated

after, in approximately 1968, Charles Haynes replaced

upon the retirement of former SA Alan Sentinella in
approximately 1970 _ The Staff Members inquired as to the
period of time thereafter that SCLC remained under inves-
tigation and what basis if any there was for closing
the case_ SA Hamilton pointed out that since the re-
assignment 0f the case to hin occurred after the death
of he felt that question did not directly relate
to the investigation of and that prior to fur-
nishing
an answer to that question, he felt he should
confer with a
FBI Headquarters representative who was
then present in the Atlanta Office of the FBI _ The
Staff Members advised they did desire an answer to that
question and approved of a consultation between SA
Hamilton and the FBI Headquarters representative SA
Hamilton conferred with the FBI Headquarters represen-
tative then in the Atlanta Office of the FBI and it
was agreed the question regarding the closing of SCLC
and the assignment of that case to SA Hamilton was outside
the parameter of the authority given to SA Hamilton by
FBI Headquarters regarding discussion of Doctor Martin
Luther Jr_ However in the spirit of cooperation,
it was agreed that SA
Hamilton
would answer the question
of the Staff Members in this regard: Thereafter
9
SA
Hamilton advised the FBI investigation regarding SCLC
was closed about 1972 or 1973 since a review of the
case file failed to reflect any influence by individuals
or
organizations having affiliations with communist
background In view of that, it was felt the SCLC case
should be closed_
The Staff Members inquired as to who made the
decision regar closing of SCLC and whether the matter
was first discussed with FBI Headquarters or other indi-
viduals within the Atlanta Office of the FBI or if it
was a decision made by SA Hamilton alone _ Hamilton
advised that as
he recalied= he reviewed the SCLC case
file from that time to a substantial period in the past
and that he recdmmended to the supervisor of the Security

'Tshce )- bah -
At 3:05 p.m_ on July 8, 1975, I met with Deputy Attorney General
Tyler and advised him 0f the fact that Mr _ Wilderotter had furnished
certain materials to the Bureau at the time Of his transfer to the White House
I told him that Mr _ Wilderotter requested an inventory be prepared of the
materials in order to assure their appropriate disposition and that such an
inventory was prepared. Itold him that the Attorney General was advised by
memorandum dated June 26, 1975, with & copy designated for the Deputy, 3
each of which enclosed a copy of the inventory_ I explained that I took & copy
of the inventory to Mr _ Wilderctter and requested him to mark thereon his
0
suggestions as to the disposition of each item.
I suggested that some of the items appearing 0n the inventory
7
could be material pertinent to the current inquiries by the-Senate Select
Committee and to conversations recently had with the Deputy Attorney General
concerning official and conftidential files maintained by Mr. Hoover _
I told the Deputy that my purpose in bringing this matter to his personal attenticl
was to emphasize my concern that the Department would be aware of the
existence and location 0f the material listed in the inventory and 0f our
interest in having materials returned to the Department or otherwise
disposed of at the earliest possible date_

10 2 m "871775 He was advised that this was not possible
and that sometime next week would be more acceptable It was
agreed that the interview would be conducted at 10 a.m on
Monday , 8/4/75 .
In view of the ongoing discussions between the
Department representatives of the King family, and the Senate
Select Committee concerning Comittee access to information con-
cerning Martin Luther Michael Shaheen was contacted con-
cerning this interview
It was pointed out to Mr Shaheen that Mr Phillips
had a great deal '0f knowledge concerning the King investigation
and it could be assumed that information would be disclosed
during interview_which might contravene an agreement with the
family should such an agreement become perfected. Since
the Department was to meet with representatives of the King
family and Senate Select Committee members on 7/31/75 it was
1: suggested that any decision concerning Mr Phillips interview
be held in abeyance pending a resolution of this problem,
'Shaheen agreed.
Shaheen subsequently advised SA Daly that the meeting
with the family representatives Senate Select 'Comittee
representatives and the" Department had not resulted in an agree-
ment He said he had discussed the interview of
Mr Phillips with the Committee representatives and they
said they would furnish guidelines concerning the topics to be
covered during the interview Shaheen indicated these guidelines
would be consistent with 'the King family

NEWS CONFERENCE OF CLARENCE MS KELLEY
DIRECTOR , FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION:
JULY 14, 1975
MR . KELLEY : Good morning_ 1 I have very few statements to make as
an opening. I just want to say that this is a further
attempt on my part to be a little more available _
Frankly, it is something which I hope we can continue
and I_ have not in the past been premeditatively evasive
nor reluctant to appear before you But, frankly, I've
been pretty busy with a number of other things _ I want to
let you know that we 're continuing
our efforts to try to
improve the rapport between uS . We will continue to do
some things and hopefully, in the future we can get together
more frequently on the basis of some of our past meetings
which I think have been very fruitful_ So now I ll throw
it open for questions and these lights are a little bit
strong but I'll try to be able to identify you Do you
have any questions?
QUESTION: Do you have any evidence , sir, or any information leading
you to suspect any CIA Agents have been planted in any man -
ner or form in any executive agencies for the purpose of
transmitting evidence back to the CIA about that agency?
MR . KELLEY : I have no evidence whatsoever brought to my attention
and I certainly know of none_
QUESTION: Sir, do you have ongoing programs trying to check out
that sort of thing? Do you look for it?

MR. KELLEY : We have no ongoing programs whatsoever and have had no
reports that it has occurred and this is something new
to us
QUESTION: Sir , there have been complaints repeatedly in recent days
from Congressmen and Senators on the Hill who are charged
with investigating the FBI and its' domestic surveillance
in past years that they are not getting the information
that they need . We heard from Senator Church maybe yester-
Can you respond to that?
MR_ KELLEY: The allegation has been made to the effect that the FBI
is dragging its feet, So to speak_
1
and slow to respond
to the requests of the Church committee for information
relative to past abuses by the FBI in the intelligence field
and it's even been said from time to time that this reluc-
tance is reflective of an effort to preserve the image of
Mr Hoover_ First, I want you to know that in giving
instructions in this matter it has been consistently
my policy to say that we should be completely candia
and forthright. And we should respond in whatever manner
we can consistent , of course, with some restrictions--those
being a matter of confidentiality and right to privacy.
Insofar as dragging our feet , the letter which was sent to
us was dated 14, 1975 _ We immediately embarked on a
program to to respond. In 1975 , I renember it was

;
the last half of we devoted 323 man days to try to. re-
spond and to date have added another over 400 hours and it's
a total dedication of personnel-zof 102 of our people _
We have 102 people who are .responding to this request _
The reason it has taken this much time and this great
amount of manpower is that we must go. through all of
this material very carefully to preserve , of course
the privacy of those who may be mentioned and also to
assure that matters of grave import are no SO
disclosed _ We are trying at best we can to resolve
in favor of making them available . I think this number
102 is very significant inasmuch as in the work of the
Freedom of Information , there are also over 102 , about
105 people, dedicated to fulfilling
our obligations there:
So , we have almost 210 people engaged in these two
enterprises and this has a great impact upon our
capabili-
ties _ Does that answer your question?
QUESTION
8 Can you tell uS Senator Church would be complaining?
MR . KELLEY: he what?
QUESTION: Why he would be complaining?
MR. KELLEY : No sir , I don t know Some Of these things , 0f course,
may be thought to be too slow and it's,thought perhaps
that all you have to do is to remove the material from

the file and send it on up . We have already submitted
a great deal 0f it and intend within the next 10 days to
complete the entire matter _
QUESTION: Is in any Of that material now in the Justice Department
awaiting approval of the Attorney General?
MR . KELLEY: Yes , some of it is in the hands of the Department ready
to be _ transmitted _ That S our first step--after we make
our survey, to it over to them , they review it and then
send it on through _
QUESTION : Well, has it been there for a while?
MR. KELLEY: I can 't tell you exactly what length Of time but I can say
that within about 10 days , we ' 1l have ours completed and
you can gage thereafter what type of delay is experienced
through the Department _
QUESTION: Mr . Kelley, Senator Church says that you won t allow him
and his staff to interview FBI Agents and that's one Of
the complaints he makes about the lack of cooperation_
Is that true that you will not allow the Senate staff to
interview FBI Agents?
MR_ KELLEY : We have gone through a
procedure whereby ex-FBI Agents
may have available to them our people in order to consult
with them as to any matter which might be thought to
violative of some of the confidentiality provisions; and
4 -

==================================================
Page 148
==================================================
we have not, to my
knowledge , denied the right of anyone'
presently employed to be interviewed with, Of course again ,
the requirements that if they want to consult with us
they may .do SO .
QUESTION : Well, in other words , you re saying that FBI Agents can
be interviewed by the Senate staff: Is that correct?
MR _ KELLEY : Let me just check that_ Mr _ Mintz , is that correct? Have
we denied any?
MR_ MINTZ : We have not denied any . We 've not indicated to anyone
we would not let them be interviewed _
QUESTION 8 What was that Mr _ Kelley, about ex--I didn t understand
about ex-FBI Agents?
MR - KELLEY: Ex-FBI Agents , when called , and we re advised , are informed
that one of our people can be present outside the inter-
view room for consultation by that interviewee with our
people to determine whether or not a certain question is
beyond the purview Of his capability, and we do not say to
him that he cannot answer but we do say here are the rules ,
the regulations _
1
the law and you can be guided in accordance
with your own dictates_ But we make available to him a con-
sultant, SO to speak
QUESTION : Is that a requirement or ?
MR . KELLEY : That' s an agreement between uS.
QUESTION: In other words
1
when an ex-Agent goes up , he has to have
somebody?
5 ~
NW 88608 Docld:32989626 148 Page
==================================================
Page 149
==================================================
MR. KELLEY: No sir, he does not have to have but we inform him that:
he may have `if he so desires
QUESTION: During your confirmation hearings two years ago,
you advocated or said that you woula like to see
more Congressional oversight of the FBI . You think now
that there ' s too much , just about right , or not enough
oversight?
MR- KELLEY: It is true that I said during my confirmation that I do
not object to FBI Congressional oversight_ One has been
established and I have met with them on several occasions
to set an oversight committee _ There is also a House
so-called oversight committee--it's the House Judiciary
Committee--there are others who may by virtue of their
jurisdiction feel that too, have oversight _ We do
no oppose House oversight_ Frankly, I woula like to have
a joint committee Of oversight
so that we can know
precisely to whom we should report and they, in turn
1
know
precisely to
whom any oversight problems
can be referred_
Basically, in other words , I do not object to oversight--
I do think that it woula be much better if we could have
it well-structured so that it will be clearly understood
by all parties concerned as to what are going to do
and how are to do it.

==================================================
QUESTION: Mr Kelley, do you feel the oversight being conducted
now
between the Senate and House is probing too deeply into the
FBI--do you feel that any Of the operations Of the FBI have
been hurt by the investigations going on now?
MR_ KELLEY : I do not construe the activities of the oversight groups
as having delved too deeply into the work Of the FBI. We do
on occasion feel that perhaps some matters need protection,
particularly those involving national security, but I have
no objection in the exchange in oversight groups of' any
matter in which we are engaged . I think, as a matter of
fact, that this is a proper balance insofar as keeping us
in line and I also welcome it inasmuch as it gives us an
opportunity to explain just what and how we do things _ I
do not object to the exchange , in other words
QUESTION : Mr Kelley , you said that you re not attempting to preserve
the image Of J _ Edgar Hoover and
1
apparently, you know
what will be in the information that is to go out of your
office in 10 days _ Can you tell uS , when that information
gets up to the Hill and assuming it's made public, are there
going to be some more bomb shells about the FBI that we
haven t heard about or is this all information which has
generally been made public?
MR . KELLEY : I don 't know 0f any bomb shells
1 sO to speak_ In the news
media , there have been many things discussed , many reports
made , and in those matters I think that just about every -
thing that we know about has been already , at least to
NW 88608 Docld:32989626 Page 150
==================================================
Page 151
==================================================
some extent, discussed and , to some extent, publicized_
I am convinced that in these matters where there might be
some criticism, there is an underlying intent to do that
which is good for the Nation I have not come across any
activities which I woula construe as being illegal, being
directed toward personal gain Or to enhance the reputation
of anyone _ I see nothing untoward in these activities_ in
other words , as will be reviewed by the various groups .
QUESTION: Now , Mr . Kelley, Mr _ Sullivan said about a week ago , that
he assumed there had been some national security break-ins
over the years and I'm just wondering if there have been
national security break-ins , say in the last five years ,
roughly what number are we
talking about and why aren 't
illegal? What's the legal authority?
MR . KELLEY : There have been statements made about surreptitious
entries and the latest was that statement made
by Mr _ Sullivan who just retired as the Assistant
Director in Charge Of the Los Angeles Office; and there
have been , of course , reports in the media that the
Department of Justice has been ` inquiring into allegations
that our people have engaged in surreptitious entries or ,
as are sometimes termed , burglaries. Yes , the FBI
has conducted surreptitious entries in securing information
relative to the security of the Nation However , in 1966 ,
8 "
NW 88608 Qocld:32989626 Page 151
they
they
they
==================================================
Page 152
==================================================
all such activity was terminated with the exception Of
a
small amount of actions which were conducted in connection
with foreign counterintelligence investigations: which we
felt had a grave impact upon the security of the Nation_
And again , as I just said , I feel that the FBI personnel
participating in or approving such activities acted in
good faith with the belief that national security interests
were paramount and their actions were reasonable. I'm
always mindful of a story I heard many years ago about two
neighbors who started some arguments which , obviously,
were going to terninate into difficulties One Of the
neighbors started a campaign to build himself up with
shadowboxing, punching the and so forth, and it appeared
very likely that he was going to be in pretty good shape
in order to beat up his neighbor and so the neighbor
thereafter, concerned as to what would happen to him
started to defend himself _ You don 1 t wait until the
climax which could be the putsch--you: start preparing
yourself and SO I think that the FBI and its officials
construed this as paramount again in the protection Of
the country.
QUESTION: You said that in 1966 , there were a small amount Of
burglaries. I'm just wondering how small is small and
NW 88608 Docld:32989626 Page 152

==================================================
Page 153
==================================================
who gave the OK _ Did this come from President Johnson
or President Nixon or was this a decision made by Attorney
General
MR - KELLEY: This matter will be discussed in subsequent hearings
and in reports , and further than what I have stated, I
cannot comment _
QUESTION
8 Mr Kelley, were these directed against Americans or
foreign persons?
MR _ KELLEY: I would prefer not at this point to make any comments
further and particularly not in particularity as to who
may have been the ones against whom they were directed -
QUESTION: Well, were all conducted in this country or were
some conducted overseas?
MR - KELLEY: I know Of none overseas _
QUESTION : Sir
1
going back to prior to 1966 , was the procedure
changed in 1966?
MR_ KELLEY : By virtue of the feeling Of Mr_ Hoover that , under the
then-prevailing philosophy and the feeling that possibly
in the context of the times , this was not a viable
procedure--they were stopped. It was Mr Hoover 1 s
decision _
QUESTION Sir , can we infer that there were quite a number
J a
large number , of burglaries prior to 1966 , but fewer
since then?

==================================================
Page 154
==================================================
MR _ KELLEY : You cannot infer anything because I have not told you
of any number _ I can say that they were stoppea
in 1966 _ As to the number
1
I cannot actually tell you how
many nor can I say that it's quite a number or very few
11
NW 88608 Docld:32989626 Page 154
only
==================================================
Page 155
==================================================
QUESTION: Why can t you tell uS the number?
ANSWER: Because we re going to make reports to our Congres -
sional groups and to the Department of Justice and ,
frankly, I can ' tell you the number myself_ We
don t have any _
QUESTION: They did not entirely stop in 1966? There were
some that did get , you say , a small number after
1966?
ANSWER: There may have been some after 1966 which were
of course in the field
of foreign counterinteili-
gence and such that it would make a grave impact
On our
QUESTION: Before that, they were not with the field Of foreign
counterintelligence?
ANSWER : yes , there were some in that field also.
QUESTION : There were others that were not in the field of
foreign counterintelligence before 1966?
ANSWER: You recall that I said in the context of the time
it may well have been that prior to that time national
security or
counterintelligence
or
whatever terminology
you might want to use could have included other areas
But , then you began to compartmentize various types
of activities and then it became evident that the
area of foreign counterintelligence national security
certainly should be differentiated from domestic
security.
QUESTION: But , Mr - Kelley , what policy have you followed in
the time that you have been Director? Is this type
Of activity, has it been permitted? Is it policy
now to conduct this kind of activity?
ANSWER: I have not had a single request to conduct such
activity since I have been made Director _ If ever
anything of this type comes up , and I can 't foresee
this need , but, if it ever dia come up and it became
a matter of grave concern , a matter which is to be
solved through such activity, I would present
it to the Attorney General and woula be guided by
his opinion as to such activity. Frankly, I have
not had any such request since I have come aboard .
12
NW 88608 Docld: 32989626 Page 155
Oh ,
only
==================================================
Page 156
==================================================
QUESTION: Is that in the foreign field, Mr . Kelley. Is that
limited to the foreign field when you say such
activity?
ANSWER: Yes , sir Foreign intelligence counterintelli-
gence , national security, whatever terminology
you want to use
QUESTION : Back prior to 1966 , were any of those in say
organized crime investigations?
ANSWER: I know of none
QUESTION : Would you Characterize , Mr _ Kelley, what areas they
were in , please What areas the pre-1966 burglaries
took place? Characterize the kinds of investiga-
tions concern?
ANSWER: I can not at this point characterize them because I
just don 1 t know how they were to be characterized.
But , it coula be that, I would guess that the
great majority of them are what we now term counter-
foreign_ counterintelligence ,
or national security_
I would say that in all probability the geat majority
of them were in that area _ That S where the grave
concern is_
QUESTION: Have you reviewed them from a legal point of view
to determine whether any of them at all were con-
ducted without proper legal authority?
ANSWER: We have discussed them with the Department , and will
place them in their hands and will make such
a review
QUESTION: I wanted to ask you if this goes back to Worla War
II, the Korean War , the Vietnam War
1
the Cola War
or all of them?
ANSWER: will go back to Worla War II, I'm confident-
QUESTION : Is it possible to get court authorization by warrant
or whatever means for surreptitious entry
as dis-
tinguished from an ordinary search warrant?
ANSWER: Inherent in the request for a microphone installation
there is a matter of surreptitious entry_ So , therein
you have a natural concomitant . You do have that

permission _ There is sOme dictum to indicate at
present , that this may be brought up later_ But , I
xnow of no authorization which can be obtained per se
for a
surreptitious entry _ And _ at this point_ of
course , the- feeling is that these confined as
are to foreign counterintelligence it flows from
presidential authority as it applies also to the
warrantless wiretaps
QUESTION : Weren 't the civil rights groups ,

ANSWER: I'm not going to say anything about where they were ,
Or against which organizations they were directed ,
only to say that they were , Mr - Nelson and I hope
that will Satisfy you , and I hope that if there is
any revelation to be made later that can be as
complete as possible because again_ we feel that
the intent was a very good one and there was no
illegality concerned Ana the impact Of it was to
protect the country.
QUESTION; Sir, how can you say that there was no illegality
concerned if the Constitution says that you have to
have a search warrant to make an entry and without ,
as I understand it
7 even checking this with the
Attorney General, these Agents burglarized private
premises?
ANSWER: The resolution Of the problem which you now present
is up to the Department and the courts
1
and I, of
course , will not engage in anything except to say
that in the defense of the men who authorized and
participated
1
that they had this intent and within
every criminal violation there is a necessity that
there be the ingredient of intent and there was none
here as far as I can determine_
QUESTION : Mr - Kelley, woula you say , sir, that most of these
requests for surreptitious entry flowed from presi-
dential authority? Is that what you said, sir?
ANSWER: No , I dia not say that. I dia not give a complete
outline as to what the authorization was And_ this
again will be a matter which will be discussed in
the reviews of the Department and the various Congres-
sional committees _

QUESTION : Sir woula you say that the Cubans who burglarized
Daniel Elzberg S, 'psychiatrist's office shoula not
have been convicted" then since they thought that
they were On
a national security mission? They
didn t intend to violate any laws _ That was their
testimony_
ANSWER: I have no judgment insofar as that because my
province is in presenting the facts and for the
review and determination by the courts and if such
an inference was made it was not intended by me
to them any sanctuary_ I'm trying to keep in
the area of our facts and that particular thing
as
to whether or not they had any intent or whether or
not it is a viable defense is up to the courts_
QUESTION : Mr . Kelley, dia you twice mention that you expect
some resolution to this question in the courts?
HOw is it going to get into the courts?
ANSWER: I don't know_ It possibly will be sone sort of a
defense rather some sort of a presentation to the
courts by the Attorney General_ He has indicated
that perhaps this being a Constitutional question-=
it being
a matter of the executive privilege of the
presidential power--that it might well be necessary
to have such a review to determine _
QUESTION: Were all of these break-ins conducted with the
permission of either the Attorney General or the
President at the time? Or were there any that were
conducted without such approval?
ANSWER: I cannot , at this point, give you any particulars
about the program_ I just say , as I did before
and this
QUESTION: Because you don t know or because you re withholding
comment?
ANSWER: I'm withholding comment _
QUESTION : Mr . Kelley, I'm still unclear about distinction
between break-ins before 1966 and afterward_ Is the
reduction in number the only change that was made or
was there change in the limitations on the targets
that were used?
ANSWER: There was a change insofar as the targets just being
in the subsequent area confined to those matters which
were concerned in foreign counterintelligence _

ANSWER: This implication is yours Mr _ Rogers , but_

ANSWER: I said that_ the question was asked me whether
I included domestic intelligence and I said I
was confident that the great majority was in the
area of foreign intelligence or foreign counter-
intelligence whatever you want to call it. And
there may have been I don t know
QUESTION: Mr Kelley , you said that you have not received a
request for any type of activities such as this
since you have been in office_ When did the last
one take place?
ANSWER: I do not know _ I do not know_
QUESTION : Will the material you turn over to the Church
Committee include full details of everyone of the
break-ins?
ANSWER: It will be a matter which will be completely
presented to the Attorney General ana insofar as
full disclosure him, that S a question which
he can answer. We will report those about
which we know _
QUESTION : Mr . Kelley, you said it was also for the 0f
the country that Agents send letters to school
boards and principals and others to damage the
reputation of people working who have had connec -
tions with groups the FBI had infiltrated_ Was
that also for the good Of the country?
ANSWER: Your statement was that also for the good of the
country to do that, to damage the reputation , was
not the issue _ As you pose your question_

you
answered substantially my response that would be
made Yes , I think that the purpose here was to
do some thing that would ultimately end to the
benefit of the Nation In other words I think

tioned , that the intent there was One which had

were developed , nor certainly the approval of the
various activities within those programs Were I to
have been there there is sOme that perhaps I might
have said_ "No I don t think this is proper_ I have

ience in local law enforcement which
1
I think prepares
me to better understand perhaps the impact of some of
these types of things They are not at all unknown in
the field of law enforcerent In some degree or another
almost all the law enforcement has engaged in some
similar types Of activities Not perhaps to the sophisti-
cation as the COINTEL Program , but the context Of the
time is felt necessary in the present We realize
that different standards shoula be applied and they are
and we do not engage in those activities now Since
April, 1971 , we cut them off.
(NOTE TO CORRESPONDENTS AND EDITORS : The preced -
ing comment by Mr _ Kelley concerning local police
use of efforts similar to COINTELPRO may be open
to misinterpretation At his direction the FBI
later issued his clarifying statement: M I had in
mind that law enforcement agencies have used
methods designed to create disunity
among the
criminal element , particularly in organized crime
and hoodlum gangs Probably most common was
labeling a crime figure as a police informant
to discredit and destroy his criminal influence
These activities to pit one crime figure against
another have achieved success in neutralizing
the criminal element_ " )
QUESTION: You said that you disagreed with some 0f the activities ,
that they were not proper programs _ Alright , does that
mean that there are variations of COINTEL Programs
still going on?
ANSWER : In the first place we deliniate certain programs
That ' s the overall structure of the full system_
Within each of these programs there were some activ-
ities , individual activities_ I feel that the setup
of the programs certainly
was directed properly , that
is, with the intent to preserve the Nation Insofar
as some individual activities ,

that they were not, again in the present context, the

intention to continue them .

QUESTION
3 Mr _ Kelley, to your knowledge have any members of
the FBI been involved in the planning or execution
of assassinations?
ANSWER: No , sir. I know of none .

here in Washington_ Have any members f the FBI
gained surreptitious entry into any embassies in
Washington?
ANSWER: Without naming or designating victims or insti-
tutions_
1
I can only say that there were a_ few
concerned with counterintelligence--foreign in
nature-~subsequent to 1966 Further then that
I cannot say .

that I'm lost as to how few is a few.

Is there any agreement with the Justice Department
either in writing or any other kind of agreement
not to prosecute people who may stray Erom or
commit crimes but rather to handle it with
internal discipline?
ANSWER : Mr _ Kelly , spelled K-E-L-L-Y, there is no such
agreement_ I would not abide by such an agreement.
I vehemently oppose any such arrangement and woula
not operate under such arrangement No , there is
none Yes anyone that within the FBI , will be

conclusion _ I can assure you absolutely that
this is my policy, is the policy of the Bureau ,
and that we will pursue them as vigorously as
we possibly can There ' 8 nothing worse in my
estimation than the betrayal of trust and that's
what we have when one of your Own people defects
and gives sanctuary and assistance to the
crminal world _
QUESTION : HOw do you account than for the fact that there
has been no one who has strayed across the line
in all these years? It's almost unhuman _
ANSWER: Well
1
I appreciate your compliment Mr Kelly,
which I agree with, there has been none There
have been of course some allegations made
from time to time
1
all of which have been pursued
and found to be groundless I think that it's
inherent in an organization which is closely
scrutinized , an organization which has a strong
inspection system but more than anything else
is the choice of people who are not susceptible
to this type of thing_ Unquestionably, in such
a screening process some might get through _
But 1
than _
1
within the FBI is a built-in system
which further prevents this possibility and that
is a tremendous pride in this very matter_ That
is, that there has been no corruption _ And , I
am confident that Agents working with one another,
although , will, of course on Occasion be sym-
pathetic to an Agent who possibly may be drinking
too much or may possibly
1
for other reasons in
the area the morals might digress to some extent ,
they absolutely will not countenance corruption
or defection to the criminal element or otherwise
contaminate that splendid reputation of the Bureau
It's a unique situation It S difficult for sOme
to understand_ But it S a built-in barrier to
an extension of this type of activity and some -
thing of which we will have tremendous pride and I
personally would not hesitate one second to pursue
any allegations such as this, feeling that although
it may get wide publicity, although it may , to some
extent, harm the credibility of the FBI _
1
it must
be done And , I assure you , will be done _ Unusual
perhaps , but nonetheless
1
it is present and we will
persist with this type of activity- We don t ask
our Agents to squeel on one another
0 we point out
the splendid reputation that is inherent within
our tradition and is one of the finest traditions
you can possibly build.

QUESTION: Mr. Kelley, earlier you spoke of the advantages and limitations
of hindsight. After having examined the records of the break-ins
and other surreptitious activity, you observed that you thought it
was well intentioned; I believe, in most cases. Did you also
observe that there was any gross misuse of authority in the
process of that ?
MR. KELLEY: I do not note in these activities any gross misuse of authority.
I see a consistent thread of well-intentioned activities. Perhaps
now in the present society, and in the context of now and in those
times , I do not feel that it was a corruption of the trust that
has been placed in us_ As now we have determined a valuation
that perhaps could be wrong; but in those days there was no
intention to engage in activities which were prohibited, illegal;
or otherwise wrong.
QUESTION: Mr. Kelley, why wouldn't an act like the bugging of Martin Luther
King's hotel room have been a betrayal of trust? These Agents
took an oath under the Constitution and that was prohibited by
Federal law at that time.
MR. KELLEY: There have been a number 0f articles written about this situation.
In reviewing this situation; I feel that the authority stemmed from
the proper source It was a matter which was construed in those
times a8 of considerable concern to the country, and the FBI acted
in accordance with the request which was made that it be installed.
21
NW 88608 Qocld:32989626 Page 165
==================================================
Page 166
==================================================
You say that it was a matter which was then a viqlation of the
law . Within the warrantless wiretaps under ordinary circum-
stances could conceivably be construed a8 a violation; but
under the umbrella of the protection of the country they have
been authorized, so I don't subscribe to the feeling that they
knowingly , in such an installation, vilated the law with the
intent to violate the
QUESTION: Mr. Kelley, do you still--does the FBI still--compile personal
information on the personal behavior of Members of Congress,
members 0f the press, and other people ?
MR. KELLEY: The FBLreceives a great deal of information from time to time.
We are charged when we have a complaint to write up that
complaint. We feel that not only are we following the archival
rules that such must be recorded, but also we feel in discharge
of our duties we should record it because such information might
well dovetail with some investigation that we are conducting.
People come to us to tell about these things for reasons--not
just to spill out gossip and rumor and to possibly someone
on the spot. We inform them, for example, at the time
submit this information a record will be made' of this but if it is
outside the jurisdiction of the FBI we s0 state. They know before
they leave, for example, that nothing will be done about it other
than to record it.

QUESTION: But it is put in the files ?

QUESTION: Whether it has to do with sex activities, or drinking too much,
or what have you ?
MR. KELLEY: The allegations within the complaint are into the complaint

QUESTION: Government officials, Members of Congress and the press,
and what have you ?
MR KELLEY: Yes sir. The Department of Justice and the Bureau are now
engaged in & mutual venture to set up guidelines as to our
activity in this regard: We will abide those guidelines _
We do want it known, however, that some of this information
might very well be helpful to US in later investigations. The
abuse is the publication of this information, and I know of no
abuse, Jack, which we can point to.
QUESTION: Has it been used at times to try to a person's job ?
MR. KELLEY: I know of none.
QUESTION: You know of none ?
MR. KELLEY: Now you say to try to a person' 1 s job? Now I don't know of
all of the activities that were involved in--and I say to you, Jack,
that yes there have been some accounts a8 to this effect. I feel
that actually were there any such activity it was on the basis of a

feeling that these things were true and that were of such
importance that they should be passed on_ Some of these, of
course, are in the COINTEL Program. Iwas not privy to some
of these aliegations. Iassure you that this will not continue to
the present time. Ihave been asked what about your own feeling
about such information. Since I have arrived I have not had a bit
of gossip or a bit of rumor sent to me and this iS over two years.
Ihave not reviewed files to find out about reporters, Congress-
men or other public figures. I do not subscribe to that type of
thing: I have a file on me_ It is a quite lengthy file _ It includes
the investigation conducted about me at the time I was being
considered. I understand it is quite voluminous. I assure you
that I have not read that file. I do not know who made
complimentary statements about me: I don't know who made
derogatory statements _ Perhaps, maybe, some of you may
have made such-statements_ I don't want to be colored in my
opinion about you by some statements which you may have made
in good faith, and I think this substantially is what it is all about.
The confidentiality and the privacy of individuals. If you, Joe
Lastelic, want to make a statement about me, you should. I
think you should be given that right, and I think that the proper
forum is in one of confidentiality. I have not read those so-called
gossip, rumor, or other objectionable types of materials. Iam

not going to read them, and I certainly do not sponsor any move
to revive anything such aS may have once existed.
QUESTION: Those files will remain ? Rumors, gossips--gossip, whatever
is in it?
MR. KELLEY: Yes sir.
QUESTION: You said that you don't question the motives of people who come in
to give you information. Do you ever check out the information
that was given to you about the people ?
MR. KELLEY: If it is within our jurisdiction and makes allegations which may
mount into a violation, yes, we check them out _ But a mere
allegation that s0 and 80 is a sex deviate or that he is going
around conducting himself other than in a gentlemanly manner
and so forth, no, we do not just on the bare gossip stage check
that out.
QUESTION: But, nevertheless, that remains in file_ You don't check that
out, that remains in the person's file unevaluated and raw
Is that correct?
MR. KELLEY: That's right. Now the implication is that you should possibly
clear the man. In s0 you would, of course, be violating
your charter which is that you do not investigate matters of this
type. You might also by virture of this give it some degree of

statute by investigating it. But more than anything else if we
have no business in it we shouldn't be checking it out and we
do not.
QUESTION: If you have no business in it, why are you in it at all ?
MR. KELLEY: We did not enter into it.
QUESTION: Is this a file that is a part of the FBI records ?
MR_ KELLEY: Yes sir_
QUESTION: You won't always be the FBI Director?
KELLEY: That's right. Iam confident of that. Iam with you a thousand
percent.
QUESTION: Mr . Kelley, can you tell us when you first learned of the' files that
Hoover kept that were called his confidential or OC files and
whether or not anyone within the Bureau knew about those files
and failed to tell you about them ?
MR. KELLEY: Jack, that's a long answer, but I will try to brief it. I first learned
of the possibility that these files existed in January, 1974. I then
was presented a list of some of the files and called in one of the
Assistant Directors and said what is this all about. Should they
be integrated into the general file system, and I mean by that that
we have a general file system. We have a section of our files which
axe kept in a separate room because we don't want everyone to
have the capability of going into them_ The man who was charged

with the responsibility of looking into this then within a few
months retired. The next stimulation of this situation arose
after a statement appeared in the paper mentioning these files
and we immediately talked about this. Still I did not look at the
files . I then instructed that our Inspection Division go over them and
make a listing of them, categorizing them. Some of them, of
course, were purely administrative, some included information
as outlined Mr _ Levi. Such & listing was made and was turned
over to the Department. Thereafter Mr. Silberman looked them
over and thereafter Mr Levi looked them over and I made a
rather cursory check of them myself. did I not look these
files over in the first place ? I did not construe them as being with -
in the realm of the so-called dossiers that had been mentioned
before and during, certainly, my confirmation: I said I did not
subscribe to the preparation or retention of dossiers on Congress-
men nor members of the Senate. I still persist in that and we have
not; references were about those which were declared
improper during Mr Gray's administration and they were at that
time stopped: These were dossiers that were prepared on candidates
for Members of Congress and those who failed in their venture
were destroyed. Those which were successful were into the
general files. We no longer do that and frankly in my opinion;
this is what was referred to. I feel that these files should be

maintained confidential. I still have not given them a close
review_ I have not done S0 for the very reason as I mentioned
about my own file. I don't think it will benefit me to gO over
them_ Under archival rules they must be preserved. In the
guidelines which are to be established, I will welcome any
reasonable guideline which says we either do or do not preserve
them_ Iam anxious for US to do our work the way it should be
done _ More than that, I cannot say .
QUESTION: Mr. Kelley, there have been suggestions that your absences
from Washington for family reasons have prevented you from
getting the kind of control of the Bureau that you would have if
you were here all the time. Iam wondering how you respond
to that kind of suggestion ?
MR. KELLEY: response is that I feel that I have been able to maintain
control. Iam certainly in constant touch. I have telephone
calls that are relayed to me when I have made such trips. I am
confident that the executive staff of this Bureau is solidly behind
me. I say this inasmuch as I have somewhat a feeling such as
may be implied in your question. Imust a8 a result of
conditions that you know about make these trips. If I feel that in
SO doing it will endanger my administrative control and my
capability of doing that which I think should be done, Iwill leave.

control of the organization. I have known Of no disruptive tactics that
might have been launched to unseat:me and again were there any
evidence of that and found, in my opinion, to be one which is well
grounded, I would immediately leave.
QUESTION: Mr . Kelley, if I can return for the moment to the subject of
break-ins: You said that conditions of national security and
foreign intelligence--there may have been other areas. I wonder
if you can be a little clearer on whether there were any break-ins
that were not related to foreign intelligence or national security?
MR. KELLEY: Iknow of none_
Thank you Mr. Kelley.

while Rice and McWilliams attended for two weeks,
The primary reason for FBI inclusion in this course
wa S because, at that time, the three Special Agents were
members of the new Training Unit, INTD, and we were seeking
educa tional guidance and ideas for our basic CI courses then
under development_ We benefited from this course because we
borrowed a few educational ideas and techniques from CIA S
method of handling its course.
RECOMMENDATION:
None . For information.

Re: SENSTUDY 75
The Biady on Page 13 reports "Unlike its fairly frequent
contacts with Panthers and other radicals in the U. S.,
the Castro Regime seems to have refrained from more than
occasional communications and expressions of moral support
M1 for the Caribbean groups _ No specific data is set forth
regarding contacts between Black Panthers and other radicals
in the U S_ and the Castro Regime Paragraph number 33 o1
page 13 of this study notes that the extent of relations
between black power groups in the Caribbean and similar
1i organizations in the U S is vague Activities of the
more activist Negro leaders in the U_ S_ such as
Stokely
Carmichael and Elijah Muhammad have been followed closely
in Jamaica and other places_ There have been visits by
Carmichael and other U S_ black power exponents to some
0f the Caribbean Islands The study notes these visits have
been limited in the past two or three years because of a ban
on the travel of certain U. S_ Negro_spokesmen by the
Governments 0f Jamaica, Antigua and Trinidad-Tobago The
study notes the latter government had refused to Permit
Carmichael to enter the country despite the fact that he is
a native of Trinidad.
The 6/12/70 study on page seven noted that available
evidence suggested that contact between Caribbean groups and
the black power movement in the U. S_ is infrequent_ It
reported there was a two-way flow of visitors including
occasional speaking tours by Carmichael and one: or two other
radicals. It was presumed that exchanges of views and
sharing of information occurred but the study noted there
was no firm evidence of funding
or direction by U_ S_ groups _
There is no data onl page 188 or
published in the
two CIA studies which would compromise or damage FBI operations
or sources_
Re page 189
This Page indicates that for several months in the
first half of 1968 the Caribbean branch apparently 0f the
Director of Current Intelligence, CIA) wrote periodie typescript
memoranda on Carmichael S travel abroad a period when he
had dropped out of public view_ This page
derindicales
that it was
felt these memoranda were for internal CIA use only although
a copy of one such memorandum was
inadvertently sent to the FBI _

during late 1967 and early_1968 These memoranda included
data, concerning Cuban Intelligence Service contacts with
Carmichael and his travel, including trips to North Vietnam

national influence of BPP grew with support groups_being organized
