Rusk - page 2 R: That fellow who resigned from the CIA. I never heard of the guy. One thing I suspect the panel might ask of the President and the Secretar y of State and the Secretary fox of Defense we should have given more to the CIA. I never looked at the CIA budget. That was worked out by the Director and the Director of the Budget. My guess is that 3 key members of the NSC should look at those things. K: It's clear that excessive supervision hasn't been adequate. I never knew they had a domestic branch. I never heard of Angleton. He's saying I got him fired. I had no idea the guy existed. R: Has the announcement of the members of the panel been made? K: Yes. present R: At some point somebody should make it clear the President that all/xx and for mer xxxxx/members of the NSV will be available to the panel for any assistance. That would include all of us. K: I see. really think we should separate illegal activities and domestic activities and we should not have this an open season on covert activities. R: There's a piece of paper lying around during the Truman administration which was a treaty between the CIA and the FBI regarding their respective jurisdictions. K: When are you coming through here again? R: Let me look and see what my present commitments are. I have to go and visit Lady Bird this week. I don't have anything schedules to come up January. I could come there at the end of the (first) week in February on my way to Princeton. K: Why don't you do that. R: I'll get in touch with you. K: OK. Do that. R: My best to the President. END
