Hello
L:
Hwnry.
K:
Yes, Peter. How are you.
L:
You know about Ruckelshaus news conference.
K:
I don't iknow what went on there.
L:
Well he said he had a news conference about these tapes on Ellsberg and
Halperin. And he said that you had had a meeting with Hoover, a conver-
sation with Hoover about in 1969 and asked, because of your fear of
NSC leaks, asked the FBI to take it out or take some action.
K:
That I?
L:
Yes. That you had had a meeting with Hoover back in 1969, and had
asked him to check out suspicion you had that there might be some leaks.
Out of that came the Hopper and Taft. He didn't say you suggested it
at all but that it came out and you did get the summaries of those tapes.
What I wanted to ask you, Henry, he said there were 12 other people
involved and I wondered if you knew if they were other members of your
staff or not.
K:
Well, first I want to see what he said.
L:
Yeah.
K:
And why don't you call me sback later.
L
All right. It willall be--he released a statement but the text of the
statement just spoke about how they recovered the tapes in the files.
But in answer to questions immediately, he said that you had met with
Hoover in the spring of 1969 and the discussion of problems on foreign
policy and the need for securing National Security information.
K:
Right.

L:
And out of this came the taxk of the Halperin phone.

K:
